The Role of Anastomotic Vessels in Controlling Tissue Viability and Defining Tissue Necrosis with Special Reference to Complications Following Injection of Hyaluronic Acid Fillers

BACKGROUND: Most target areas for facial volumization procedures relate to the anatomical location of the facial or ophthalmic artery. Occasionally, inadvertent injection of hyaluronic acid (HA) filler into the arterial circulation occurs, and unrecognised, is irreparably associated with disastrous vascular complications. Of note, the site of complications, irrespective of the injection site, is similar, and falls into only 5 areas of the face, all within the functional angiosome of the facial or ophthalmic artery. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective and prospective studies were made to assess the site and behaviour of anastomotic vessels connecting the angiosomes of the face and their possible involvement in the pathogenesis of tissue necrosis. In-vivo studies of pig and rabbit, and archival human total body and prospective selective lead oxide injections of the head and neck were analysed. Results were compared with documented patterns of necrosis following inadvertent HA intra-arterial injection. RESULTS: Studies showed the location of TRUE and CHOKE anastomoses connecting the facial artery with neighbouring angiosomes predicted the tissue at risk of necrosis following inadvertent intra-arterial HA injection. CONCLUSION: Complications related to HA injections are intimately associated with: (i) the anatomical distribution of TRUE and CHOKE anastomoses connecting the facial artery to neighbouring ophthalmic and maxillary angiosomes where CHOKE vessels define the boundary of necrosis of an involved artery but TRUE anastomoses allow free passage to a remote site; or possibly (ii) retrograde perfusion of HA into avalvular facial veins, especially in the periorbital region, and thereby the ophthalmic vein, cavernous sinus and brain. ** Joint first authors * Presented at 50 Years of Aesthetics, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ASAPS ), San Diego California Meeting, 27 April – 2 May 2017.
