Scar tissue or pseudo-bursa? (Photo)

Dear ggirl17,it is hard to tell without an examination. If you are concerned, I would suggest you to consult your plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Dear patient:  its too early to determine a Pseudo Bursa.  Let the swelling go down, continue to follow up with your Board Certified Plastic surgeon.  Hope this helps!

Sorry to hear about your tummy tuck healing.  Its possible that you have developed a seroma or pseudo-bursa.  Just because no fluid was aspirate on the last attempt does not mean fluid was not still present.  A CT scan will help she some light on the subject but an exam alone and discussion about symptoms is often all that is needed.  If there is fluid still there it would be helpful to get it out.  A drain may need to be placed.  A pseudo-bursa may have formed already but at least there is a chance of not having it get thicker with the ongoing presence of fluid there.All the best,Dr. Remus Repta
