[A study on the relationship between intake hole of the liposuction-tube and the amount of liposuction].
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relationship between the liposuction-tube's intake hole and the amount of liposuction.


METHODS
4 groups were divided, according to the liposuction-tube intake hole's shape, area and the tube installed electrotome or not, to suck the exsomatized fat, then made a quantitative analysis.


RESULTS
It can suck more fat by using a tube with a double-two-toothed hole than with two-toothed hole or with diamond hole. We can get the largest amount of fat when the hole's area is the double of the tube's area. It's more effective when the tube installed with electrotome than without electrotome.


CONCLUSIONS
It's by far the most effective in liposuction when the intake hole's area is the double of the tube's area, the shape is a polygona with cutting edge, and also the tube is installed a high-frequency electrotome.
