Heat effects on removed buttock tissue
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at tissue removed during surgery to remove biopolymer fillers from the buttocks. It tests how heat from electrocautery (a surgical tool) affects the removed tissue, which might help improve future surgeries.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a diagnosis of gluteal (buttock) soft tissue infiltration by biopolymers (fillers).
- You are scheduled for surgery to remove the biopolymer-infiltrated tissue.
- You can provide written informed consent.
- Even if you meet the initial criteria, your tissue may not be suitable for the study if it's not enough or has issues.

This study looks at tissue samples from people who have had permanent or unknown fillers injected into their buttocks and are having surgery or a biopsy. It aims to understand the tissue reactions and how these complications evolve, which may help improve future care.
This study checks if MRI measurements match what surgeons see during surgery to remove permanent filler from the buttocks. It may help improve planning for similar procedures.
This study compares two ways of reading MRI scans to help doctors plan surgery for people who have had permanent filler injections in their buttocks. The goal is to see if a structured reading method finds problems more accurately than the usual method.
This study compares using a special dye and camera to check blood flow during surgery to remove permanent filler from the buttocks, versus the standard method. The goal is to see if this imaging technique helps reduce wound healing problems after surgery.
This study looks at people who had permanent (non-dissolving) fillers injected into their buttocks, to better understand the health problems these fillers can cause over time. If you've had such fillers and are having symptoms, joining helps doctors learn more about your condition and improve future care.
This study compares two treatments for buttock pain that gets worse when you sit. One is a type of hands-on therapy, the other adds sound wave therapy. The goal is to see which helps reduce pain and improve movement.
