[BACKGROUND] With the rise in long-term medication use, assessing ocular adverse reactions (OARs) from systemic drugs has gained importance. Using large real-world databases like the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) offers valuabl…

[OBJECTIVE] To compare the motor and sensory outcomes and quality of life (QOL) of augmented medial rectus recession (aMRc) and botulinum toxin A (BTXA) therapy in acute acquired comitant esotropia (AACE) treatment and to investigate the pr…

[OBJECTIVES] PIK3CA-Related Overgrowth Spectrum (PROS) is a highly heterogeneous disease. Facial Infiltrating Lipomatosis (FIL) is a rare PROS subset, and its atypical phenotypes, such as macrotia, present diagnostic and therapeutic challen…

[BACKGROUND] Gynecomastia, a common condition involving benign breast tissue enlargement in men, poses challenges for plastic surgeons, especially in severe cases. Current surgical methods for severe gynecomastia often require complex, inva…

[BACKGROUND] The correction of breast ptosis using implants alone remains controversial. Given the preference for transaxillary approaches among Asian women, we developed a novel technique: endoscopic-assisted transaxillary high dual-plane …

The anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap is a commonly used donor site for reconstructive surger, especially in head and neck reconstructions. The flap's success is primarily determined by the quality and quantity of its perforating vessels, whic…

With the rapid advancement of digital and microsurgical techniques, immediate autologous bone grafting following resection of benign and malignant mandibular tumors has become a standard treatment. However, some patients are unable to under…

[IMPORTANCE] The current standard treatment for clinical tumor stage 1 to 2 or in situ laryngeal carcinoma without node involvement or metastases (T1-2N0M0/Tis) is whole laryngeal radiotherapy (WLRT), whereas microsurgery typically resects …

This case report aimed to present an accurate and minimally invasive approach to retrieve a separated instrument beyond the apical foramen, using a 3-dimensional (3D) printing guide and trephine bur. A 31-year-old female patient was referre…
