RESUMO
ABSTRACT Introduction:
Vitamin D plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including the well-known regulation of the immune system and calcium metabolism. While its involvement in the surgical outcomes of various medical specialties is recognized, there is a lack of consistent data regarding plastic surgery. This study aimed to assess preoperative serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D and its relationship with complications in patients undergoing reconstructive and aesthetic plastic surgeries.Methods:
prospective and observational cohort study, conducted from October 2021 to August 2023 at the Hospital das Clínicas, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, involving 83 patients.Results:
vitamin D levels were deemed deficient in 7 (8,4%) patients, insufficient in 36 (43,4%), and sufficient in 40 (48,2%). No direct association was demonstrated between deficient or insufficient serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D and the incidence of complications in plastic surgery, even when considering comorbidities.Conclusion:
preoperative hypovitaminosis D was not associated with complications in plastic surgery.
