1 month post op of Tummy Tuck and Liposuction. How do I treat a calcified seroma?

I would encourage you to go back to your surgeon and have him/her evaluate. At times this fluid (seroma) becomes loculized and a scar capsule forms around it. Oftentimes a simple aspiration will suffice in draining the fluid. This may have to be repeated several times. If the capsule is allowed to mature with time, complete removal may be necessary.It puzzles me that you refer to it as a "calcified seroma". Did they find calcifications of the wall on CT scan or is this an expression that a doctor in the ER used? Calcification at 1 month out from your TT just does not happen. If indeed the CT scan showed calicifications, it needs to be investgated further. In any case, return to your surgeon for advice. Good Luck.

Seromas are annoying but very treatable complications of tummy tucks.  At one month post-op, there is still a chance that this can resolve without surgery.  The longer it lasts, however, the less likely it is to heal with conservative therapy.  Drainage of the seroma is a good place to start, with the placement of an indwelling catheter drain like a Seromacath to keep the space empty so it can seal up.  If this doesn't work, a sclerosing agent can be instilled into the seroma to irritate the walls of the pseudo-bursa cavity that forms around long-standing seromas.  In particularly stubborn cases, the seroma simply needs to be excised and the area closed.   I would set up a visit with your Plastic Surgeon for evaluation.
