Summary

Keloids are the most common disfiguring skin disorder affecting colored population with a prevalence of upto 16%.

Autologous adipose derived stem cells have been found to have potential therapeutic benefits however limited clinical trials have compared there role to standard therapy.

This is a pilot study that is intended to evaluate the feasibility of conducting this clinical trial comparing adipose derived stromal vascular fraction to Triamcinolone in keloid treatment. The full clinical trial is already registered under the clinical trial number NCT04391621.

The objective of this Pilot is to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a full study on the same topic.

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Autologous adipose derived stem cells

Once consented, tumescent liposuction will be performed and 100-300ml of lipoaspirate will be collected. The harvested lipoaspirate will be processed aseptically in theatre through centrifugation at 1200g, then the sediment will be washed with Phosphate buffered saline and then incubated at 37 degrees celsius in 0.075% Collagenase type 1a for 1 hour. This will then be washed in an equal volume of 10% Fetal Bovine Serum then filtered through a 100 micrometer cell strainer. Red cells lysed using the Red cell lysis buffer will be performed followed by washing in Phosphate buffered Saline and centrifugation and the stromal vascular fraction cell pellet collected and diluted into 5ml normal saline solution for immediate infiltration. cell counts and viability using Trypan blue will be perfomed prior to the infiltration
