[INTRODUCTION] Up to one-fifth of breast cancer survivors will develop chronic breast cancer-related lymphoedema (BCRL). To date, complex physical decongestion therapy (CDT) is the gold standard of treatment. However, it is mainly symptomat…

[BACKGROUND] Facial palsy causes paralytic lagophthalmos, which remarkably deteriorates a patient's quality of life. In cases where denervation time is over 18-24 months (longstanding facial palsy), a free or pedicled muscle transfer is nee…

[BACKGROUND]  The lumbar artery perforator flap is a second-choice flap in autologous breast reconstruction whenever a deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap is not possible. Ideal candidates are pear-shaped women who do not…

[BACKGROUND] Large and ptotic breasts are considered an anatomical contraindication for nipple sparing mastectomy (NSM). Necrosis rates can be as high as 76%. The authors examined whether targeted preshaping mastopexy/reduction combined wit…

[INTRODUCTION] The number of patients requesting prophylactic mastectomy with immediate reconstruction is rising. The oncological safety of techniques preserving the nipple and/or areola complex is still controversial. Nevertheless, nipple-…

[BACKGROUND] The lumbar artery perforator flap is an excellent free flap for breast reconstruction whenever the deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is not an option. The main indication is a lack of abdominal bulk, often seen in…

[BACKGROUND] The deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap is the gold standard in autologous breast reconstruction. When the abdomen is not available, alternative donor sites can be found at the buttock, the lumbar region, or …

A recent rise in the use of autologous fat transfer for soft tissue augmentation has paralleled the increasing popularity of liposuction body contouring. This creates a readily available and inexpensive product for lipografting, which is th…

[OBJECTIVE] Full-thickness cutaneous wounds treated with split-thickness skin grafts often result in unaesthetic and hypertrophic scars. Dermal substitutes are currently used together with skin grafts in a single treatment to reconstruct th…

[INTRODUCTION] Reconstruction after resection of advanced stage hidradenitis suppurativa is currently performed with pedicled perforator flaps, that allow functional reconstruction and preservation of shoulder function. Skin availability is…

Upon soy consumption, isoflavone metabolites attain bioactive concentrations in breast tissue possibly affecting health. Though in vitro epigenetic activity of soy metabolites has been described, the in vivo impact on the epigenome is large…

[BACKGROUND] The estrogen concentration has been determined in breast tissue, focusing largely on samples obtained from breast cancers. In this study, estradiol concentration was determined in normal breast tissue obtained from women underg…

[BACKGROUND] A variety of suboptimal results arise in breast augmentation due to failure of the overlying soft tissue to adequately cover the implant. The authors describe a new concept of composite breast augmentation surgery that combines…

This article constitutes the joint statement from the plastic surgery societies of Australia, Belgium, Brazil, France, Great Britain, New Zealand, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, and the United States. It reviews the background, his…

[BACKGROUND] Despite decades of research on the relation between soy and breast cancer, questions regarding the absorption, metabolism, and distribution of isoflavones in breast tissue largely remain unanswered. [OBJECTIVE] We evaluated th…

Hop-derived products may contain xanthohumol (XN), isoxanthohumol (IX), and the potent phytoestrogen 8-prenylnaringenin (8-PN). To evaluate the potential health effects of these prenylflavonoids on breast tissue, their concentration, nature…

[BACKGROUND] In April of this past year, Transatlantic Innovations brought a variety of organizations and industry together for an international exchange of ideas, new technology, and current trends in plastic surgery. [METHODS] The meetin…

The body contour deformities that develop in morbidly obese patients following bariatric surgery often involve the breasts. Mastopexy is virtually always required in the female massive weight loss patient, and breast augmentation is often a…

[BACKGROUND] The ideal dermal filler should be nonpermanent but with a durable effect lasting between 1 and 2 years, which is not the case with the resorbable fillers that are currently available. Evolence30 is a new, porcine-derived collag…

[INTRODUCTION] Anatomy and classification of intercostal perforator flaps in addition to our experience with will be demonstrated for different indications. [MATERIAL AND METHODS] The intercostal vessels form an arcade between the aorta an…

Trilucent soybean oil-filled breast implants were initially announced as the ultimate prostheses for breast augmentation. However, after an increasing number of reports of local complications and hazardous metabolites attributable to lipid …

The authors present a single center's experience in bilateral breast reconstruction using perforator free flaps. The aim of this study was to show their indications, surgical technique, and results. A series of 53 patients underwent this pr…

A technique is described for autologous breast augmentation based on perforator flaps of the lateral chest wall. Raising these flaps as perforator flaps implies minimal donor site morbidity; however, the price to pay is a scar underneath th…

[INTRODUCTION] Previous anatomical and clinical studies have shown that nipple-areola sensitivity decreased significantly after conventional superior and inferior pedicle technique for 3-6 months postoperatively. We found it necessary to mo…

There is a strong trend at hand toward less dramatic facial rejuvenation surgery. Most of the authors' patients want a cosmetic improvement but not at the cost of prolonged disfigurement or a high risk of complications. In 1999, a very simp…
