| Abstract (English): |
Aesthetic plastic surgery has experienced significant growth globally in recent years, driven by technological advancements and an increased demand for aesthetic procedures. However, this growth also comes with an associated risk of postoperative complications, which are estimated to occur in 5.7% of cases. These complications not only pose a clinical challenge but also have an impact on morbidity and mortality, potentially leading to aesthetic or functional sequelae that affect postoperative satisfaction and increase economic costs for both patients and the healthcare system. Ensuring patient safety is a fundamental aspect of medical practice. In this context, the second part of our literature review addresses the most common local postoperative complications, providing an overview for diagnosis and management in the emergency department. Timely identification and treatment of these complications are crucial to reduce associated sequelae. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |

La cirugía plástica estética ha experimentado un crecimiento significativo a nivel global en los últimos años, impulsado por avances tecnológicos y una mayor demanda de procedimientos estéticos. Sin embargo, este incremento también conlleva un riesgo asociado de complicaciones postoperatorias, cuya incidencia se estima en un 5,7%. Estas complicaciones no solo representan un desafío clínico, sino que también generan un impacto en la morbimortalidad, pueden ocasionar secuelas estéticas o funcionales que afectan la satisfacción postoperatoria e incremento de los gastos económicos tanto para los pacientes como para el sistema de salud. Garantizar la seguridad del paciente es un aspecto fundamental en la práctica médica. En este contexto, la segunda parte de nuestra revisión de la literatura aborda las complicaciones locales postoperatorias más frecuentes, proporcionando una visión general para el diagnóstico y manejo en el servicio de urgencias. La identificación y el tratamiento oportuno de estas complicaciones son fundamentales para disminuir las secuelas asociadas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
