We read with great interest the article entitled “Function-preserving fat grafting
in the breast: results based on 18 years of experience”
1
by Yin et al. in Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery. In this
article, the authors proposed a new concept “function-preserving fat grafting” (FPFG)
that aimed to preserve fat integrity and cell viability throughout the whole operation
of fat grafting. To validate this concept, the authors conducted a retrospective study
containing 1218 patients (703 cases of breast aesthetic augmentation, 38 cases of
breast reconstruction after mastectomy, and 26 cases of simultaneous implant exchange
with fat). We congratulate the authors for achieving satisfactory results with low
complication rates based on a large sample size.- Yin Bo
