EVALUATION OF THE EFFECT OF REMOVED TISSUE IN UPPER BLEPHAROPLASTY ON SURGICAL OUTCOMES AND PATIENT SATISFACTION

Öz

AİM: To investigate the effect of the removed tissue on surgical results, recovery duration, complication rate, scar development, and patient satisfaction in cases in which upper blepharoplasty was performed. MATERİAL AND METHOD: This prospective study included 188 eyes of 94 patients who underwent upper blepharoplasty. The removed tissue was classified as skin, skin/muscle, skin/fat, and skin/muscle/fat. The patients were evaluated in terms of surgical results, complications, scar development, and recovery duration. At the postoperative 3rd month, Glasgow Benefit Inventory (GBI) questionnaire and surgical satisfaction questionnaire were applied to determine the change in the quality of life, and the perception of surgical benefit. The relationship between the removed tissue and the recovery duration, complications, scar development, GBI score, and satisfaction with the surgery were evaluated. RESULTS: Mean age was 55.2 ±7.6 years and %78.7 of the patients were female. The nineteen of patients underwent resection of skin, 38 of the patients underwent resection of skin/muscle, 7 of the patients underwent resection of skin/fat, and 30 of the patients underwent resection of skin/muscle/fat. Of the patients, 81.9% were very satisfied with the surgery, 11.7% were satisfied, 5.3% were moderately satisfied, and 1.1% were dissatisfied. An increase was detected both in total GBI scores and subscores. There was no significant difference between the removed tissue and surgical outcomes, recovery duration, scar development, complications, patient satisfaction, and GBI scores (p>0.05). CONCLUSİON: Regardless of the removed tissue, the majority of patients experienced an increase in patient satisfaction and perceived surgical benefit, along with functional improvement.

ÜST KAPAK BLEFAROPLASTİ CERRAHİSİNDE ÇIKARILAN DOKU MİKTARININ CERRAHİ SONUÇLAR VE HASTA MEMNUNİYETİ ÜZERİNE ETKİSİNİN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Öz

AMAÇ: Üst kapak blefaroplasti uygulanan olgularda ekzise edilen doku miktarının cerrahi sonuçlar, iyileşme süresi, komplikasyon oranları, skar gelişimi ve hasta memnuniyeti üzerine olan etkisini araştırmak. GEREÇ ve YÖNTEM: Bu prospektif çalışmaya tamamı üst kapak blefaroplasti uygulanmış 94 hastanın 188 gözü dahil edildi. İntraoperatif olarak eksize edilen doku miktarı kaydedilerek cilt, cilt/kas, cilt yağ ve cilt/kas/yağ dokusu olarak sınıflandırıldı. Hastalar cerrahi sonuçlar, komplikasyon gelişimi, skar gelişimi ve iyileşme süresi açısından değerlendirildi. Postoperatif 3. ayda, hastalara cerrahi memnuniyet anketi ile birlikte, hastaların yaşam kalitesindeki değişimi, cerrahi yarar algısını ve bu değişimin özelliklerini belirlemek için Glasgow Yarar Envanter (GYE) anketi uygulandı. Eksize edilen doku miktarı ile iyileşme süresi, komplikasyon gelişimi, skar gelişimi ,GYE skoru ve cerrahiden memnuniyet düzeyi arasındaki ilişki araştırıldı. BULGULAR: Yaş ortalaması 55,2 ±7,6 yıl olup, hastaların % 78,7’si kadındı. Hastaların 19’una yalnızca cilt eksizyonu, 38’ine cilt ve kas eksizyonu, 7’sine cilt ve yağ eksizyonu, ve 30’una ise cilt, kas ve yağ eksizyonu uygulanmıştı. Hastaların %81.9’u geçirdikleri cerrahiden çok memnun olduğunu, %11,7’si memnun olduğunu, %5,3’ü orta düzeyde memnun olduğunu ve %1,1’i memnun olmadığını ifade etti. GYE anket sonucuna göre, hem total GYE skorunda hem de alt skorlarda artış saptandı. Eksize edilen doku miktarı ile cerrahi sonuçlar, iyileşme süresi, skar oluşumu, komplikasyon oranları, hasta memnuniyeti ve GYE skoru arasında anlamlı bir fark yoktu (p>0,05). SONUÇ: Üst kapak blefaroplasti cerrahisinden sonra, eksize edilen doku miktarından bağımsız olarak, hastaların büyük kısmında fonksiyonel iyileşme ile birlikte hasta memnuniyetinde ve cerrahi yarar algısında artış meydana gelmiştir.
