The emerging role of robotics in plastic and reconstructive surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
The role of robotics has grown exponentially. There is an active interest amongst practitioners in the transferability of the potential benefits into plastic and reconstructive surgery; however, many plastic surgeons report lack of widespre…

Clinical, Preclinical, and Educational Applications of Robotic-Assisted Flap Reconstruction and Microsurgery: A Systematic Review.
[INTRODUCTION] Microsurgery and super-microsurgery allow for highly technical reconstructive surgeries to be performed, with repairs of anatomical areas of less than 1 mm. Robotic-assisted surgery might allow for further advances within mic…

Achieving optimal clinical outcomes in autologous fat grafting: A systematic review of processing techniques.
[BACKGROUND] Autologous fat grafting (AFG) is a versatile technique in reconstructive and cosmetic surgery. Graft processing is a key source of variability resulting in unreliable clinical outcomes, with no consensus on the optimal methodol…

Optimisation of botulinum toxin type a treatment for the management of Raynaud's phenomenon using a dorsal approach: a prospective case series.
[INTRODUCTION] Raynaud's phenomenon (RP) is a common condition and causes pain, paraesthesia, ulceration and gangrene. Botulinum toxin A (Btx-A) is effective when injected via a digital palmar approach, in the treatment of severe RP. Howeve…

The novel use of botulinum toxin A for the treatment of Raynaud's phenomenon in the toes.
Raynaud's phenomenon is a vasospastic disorder of the digital vessels triggered by exposure to cold or stress. It is most commonly observed in the hands, but also frequently affects the toes. We present three cases of patients with severe R…

Assessing surgical skill using bench station models.
[BACKGROUND] The acquisition of surgical skill is one of the essentials of good surgical practice. The training of plastic surgeons is presently unstructured, with few objective measures of surgical skill. The trainee's time to acquire skil…
