What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

Researchers are studying whether MRI scans accurately measure gluteal tissue and skin-flap thickness before surgery to remove permanent synthetic fillers. Adults scheduled for elective excision of gluteal filler complications receive preoperative MRI, then surgeons measure the same landmarks directly during the operation. The study compares the two sets of measurements and tracks wound healing for 30 days after surgery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If MRI proves reliable, surgeons could plan gluteal filler removal more precisely and reduce complications like wound breakdown and tissue death.
What could go wrong
This is an observational agreement study, not a treatment trial, so it cannot prove MRI improves outcomes. MRI may not match surgical measurements well enough to be useful, and the study does not test whether better planning actually prevents complications.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age 18 years or older. * Gluteal permanent synthetic filler disease scheduled for elective surgical excision. * Preoperative MRI performed within 90 days before surgery using the study measurement protocol. * Planned skin/subcutaneous flap elevation that permits direct thickness measurement at predefined landmarks. * Written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Emergency surgery or active uncontrolled infection that prevents standardized preoperative imaging or measurement. * Prior surgery causing loss of the predefined landmarks or making paired measurement impossible. * Nondiagnostic MRI or incomplete coverage of the planned operative field. * Specimen fragmentation that prevents standardized fresh-specimen dimension measurement for the secondary endpoint. * Inability to complete 30-day wound follow-up.
