Background Abdominoplasty is one of the most common body-contouring procedures. It is among the top five procedures in aesthetic surgery. The aim of abdominoplasty is to remove excess fat and skin and restore weakened muscles to create smoother firmer abdominal figure Aim of study The aim of the present study is to compare between the rate of seroma in patients undergone abdominoplasty using quilting sutures technique and patients undergone abdominoplasty using fibrin glue. Patients and Methods This study was conducted on 20 patients complaining of variable degrees of abdominal wall laxity seeking for surgical repair of abdominal wall, conducted from april 2019 till october 2019.on patients admitted at ain shams university hospitals and cairo university hospitals Results This study includes twenty patients with abdominal wall redundancy presented to Ain-Shams university hospital and kasr AL Ainy university hospital in the period (April 2019 - October 2019). The patients were divided into two groups: group A ten patients undergone abdominoplasty with quilting sutures technique, group B ten patients undergone abdominoplasty with fibrin glue. All 20 patients were females aging between 25 and 50 and with BMI between 25 and 30. Conclusion Within the limitations of our study we have concluded that this study adds to the mounting evidence that placement of quilting sutures or the application of fibrin glue is safe and effective and will contribute to a decrease in the seroma rate, the total amount of drain output, the time of drain removal and complications. It produces a safe and less eventful postoperative period.
