Fat injection.

The results of grafts of fat obtained through liposuction are presented. They are the outcome of the current revitalization of the old technique of fat extraction and transplant. Both doctor and patient should be aware that a successful treatment is achieved through continuity. Fat grafts evolve with respect to time and permanence with reabsorption a part of the normal evolutionary process. Fat reinjection is a consequence of tissue reabsorption or a complement of the preceding injection. There is no complication associated with repeated reinjection. All cases reported here include patients with two or more reinjections, depending on their pathology and evolution.

A new model of liposuction cannula.

A new design for the suction cannula used in suction curettage is presented. Based on several years' experience in patients from 17 to 63 years of age, the new device allows softer movements intraoperatively, a correct grasp, and excellent suction.

Suction curettage lipectomy.

In 1981, we started performing minor suction curettage with the elements available at that time. In the course of surgical practice, we have modified the suction system and devised a new pattern of suction cannulas adapted for this kind of operation, with all possible variants. During this period, we have treated 150 patients, ranging in age from 17 to 63 years. In the light of present knowledge, we consider it time to provide a systematization of this technique.

A family perspective of family/staff interaction in long-term care facilities.

This article explores the ways that families perceive their relationships with the staff in long-term care facilities. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 27 families who had elder members in two facilities in Ontario, Canada. The families identified the staff characteristics that they valued and the ways they developed relationships with staff members.
