Trial summary

This prospective agreement study will compare preoperative MRI measurements with direct surgical measurements in adults undergoing removal of gluteal tissue affected by permanent synthetic fillers. MRI will estimate affected-tissue dimensions and residual skin-flap thickness at predefined landmarks. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Adults scheduled for surgical excision of gluteal tissue affected by permanent synthetic fillers after preoperative MRI.

Who may be able to join

  • Age 18 years or older.
  • Gluteal permanent synthetic filler disease scheduled for elective surgical excision.
  • Preoperative MRI performed within 90 days before surgery using the study measurement protocol.
  • Planned skin/subcutaneous flap elevation that permits direct thickness measurement at predefined landmarks.
  • Written informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Emergency surgery or active uncontrolled infection that prevents standardized preoperative imaging or measurement.
  • Prior surgery causing loss of the predefined landmarks or making paired measurement impossible.
  • Nondiagnostic MRI or incomplete coverage of the planned operative field.
  • Specimen fragmentation that prevents standardized fresh-specimen dimension measurement for the secondary endpoint.
  • Inability to complete 30-day wound follow-up.

About this study

This prospective agreement study will compare preoperative MRI measurements with direct surgical measurements in adults undergoing removal of gluteal tissue affected by permanent synthetic fillers. MRI will estimate affected-tissue dimensions and residual skin-flap thickness at predefined landmarks. During surgery, the same flap landmarks and the fresh excised specimen will be measured. The primary outcome is agreement between MRI and intraoperative flap thickness; postoperative ischemia, wound dehiscence, and necrosis will be followed through 30 days.

Read the detailed description

Participants will receive standardized preoperative MRI morphometric mapping within 90 days before surgery. Two trained readers will measure the affected tissue block in three axes, estimate its volume, and record residual flap thickness at predefined surface landmarks. During the index filler-removal procedure, the landmarks will be reproduced and measured directly with a calibrated sterile device. The fresh specimen will be oriented, measured, and weighed before fixation. Agreement, bias, and prediction error will be quantified. Clinical follow-up through day 30 will determine whether thinner flaps or larger prediction errors are associated with ischemia-related wound complications.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Preoperative MRI Morphometric MappingDiagnostic test

    Three orthogonal dimensions of the affected block and residual flap thickness at fixed surface landmarks will be measured on MRI by two trained readers. Affected-tissue volume will be estimated using segmentation when available and a prespecified geometric approximation otherwise. Linked arm/group(s): MRI-to-Surgery Agreement Cohort.

  • Standardized Intraoperative and Fresh-Specimen MeasurementProcedure or surgery

    Before closure, residual flap thickness will be measured with a calibrated sterile device at the same mapped landmarks without compressing the tissue. The fresh excised block will be oriented and measured in three axes before fixation. Specimen weight will also be recorded. Linked arm/group(s): MRI-to-Surgery Agreement Cohort.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Agreement Between MRI and Intraoperative Residual Flap Thickness

    Residual skin-subcutaneous flap thickness in millimeters will be measured at predefined mapped landmarks on MRI and directly during surgery. Agreement will be summarized using intraclass correlation, mean bias, 95% limits of agreement, and absolute error.

    Measured: Preoperative MRI within 90 days before surgery and the index surgical procedure. 90 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Agreement Between MRI and Fresh-Specimen Affected-Tissue Dimensions

    Maximum craniocaudal, mediolateral, and anteroposterior dimensions in centimeters will be compared between MRI and the oriented fresh specimen before fixation.

    Measured: Preoperative MRI within 90 days before surgery and immediately after specimen removal during the index operation. 90 days

  2. Absolute Percentage Error in Predicted Affected-Tissue Volume

    Absolute difference between MRI-predicted and specimen-derived volume divided by specimen-derived volume and multiplied by 100. Lower values indicate more accurate prediction.

    Measured: Preoperative MRI and the index surgical procedure. 1 day

  3. Incidence of Ischemic Wound Complications

    Proportion of participants with clinically documented flap ischemia, partial- or full-thickness tissue necrosis, or wound dehiscence judged to be related to tissue perfusion.

    Measured: From surgery through postoperative day 30. 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gluteal Tissue Ischemia Risk and Foreign-Body Reaction, run by Research Inc.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Edison Osorio, MD, Plastic surgeon (+573226140611, info@edisonosorio.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Agreement Between MRI and Intraoperative Residual Flap Thickness (time frame: Preoperative MRI within 90 days before surgery and the index surgical procedure. 90 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Sep 2026.
