[BACKGROUND] The purpose of this work is to therapeutically reverse the damaging effects of radiotherapy on bone graft incorporation to enable nonvascularized bone grafting (NVBG) in the irradiated mandible. While NVBG has lost favor as a s…

Cerebrospinal fluid leaks are the most common complication of endoscopic endonasal skull base tumor resection. The workhorse nasoseptal flap or other vascularized intranasal flaps may not be a viable option in patients who have previously u…

Ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) placement is a common neurosurgical procedure with a high rate of distal catheter malfunction. Rarely, the catheter may migrate to other tissues in the body including the breast pockets. There are increasing…

[BACKGROUND] Upper eyelid dermatochalasis often triggers frontalis hyperactivity in an effort to elevate the upper lids away from the visual axis. Similarly, prior neuromodulator treatment of the brow depressors may cause false elevation of…

[OBJECTIVES] To report about our 10 years' experience about the treatment of drooling by ultrasound guided botulinum toxin injections. [MATERIAL AND METHODS] Retrospective monocentric study including all the patients suffering from droolin…

[BACKGROUND] Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is an often under-recognized yet severe psychiatric illness. There is limited guidance for plastic surgeons in the USA in how to recognize and manage patients with BDD and protect themselves from …

[BACKGROUND] The authors compared the outcomes of two-stage, acellular dermal matrix (AlloDerm)-assisted prosthetic breast reconstruction including different timings of radiotherapy. [METHODS] A review of two-stage, AlloDerm-assisted, pros…

[BACKGROUND] Determining the optimal technique for autologous fat grafting requires elucidation of the engraftment process at the cellular level. The nude mouse xenograft model for autologous human fat grafting is an excellent tool to evalu…

[INTRODUCTION] Silicone breast implants are widely used for breast augmentation and breast reconstruction following mastectomy. Implant rupture has specific radiological signs. With the advent use of new imaging technique such as positron e…

Oribasius was an eminent Byzantine physician who lived in the fourth century. His greatest contribution to medical history was his anthology of all important medical works of his time, entitled Synagogue Medicae. This complete medical encyc…

[OBJECTIVE] The objectives of the study were to evaluate the pattern of plastic surgery (PS) team intervention during the first 12 hours after a mass casualty blast. [METHODS] The records of 272 civilians injured from 1994 to 1997 in Tel A…

Secondary bone grafting of the maxilla and closure of the residual oronasal fistula at the stage of transitional dentition has become a well-accepted treatment modality. This procedure, in conjunction with orthodontic treatment, has been in…

Reported here are the results of a retrospective study of the speech outcome for 63 cleft subjects who had Furlow repairs compared with 20 subjects who had other procedures. The two groups of children were similar in cleft type, sex, and ra…

The majority of open myelomeningocele defects are small enough that following the neural repair, soft tissue closure is achieved by simple undermining of the skin edges and tension-free approximation in the midline. The larger defects, grea…

A simple hair-braiding technique is presented as an adjunct for the intraoperative management of the scalp in patients undergoing craniofacial reconstruction with exposure through a coronal incision. The method is described, and its practic…

Use of rigid fixation systems in craniomaxillofacial surgery has significantly improved clinical results. We describe the technical application of utilizing rigid fixation systems in the actual process of reshaping bone flaps and grafts. We…

The transcoronal surgical approach for the treatment of orbital disease has become increasingly popular since it affords excellent surgical exposure through a cosmetically acceptable incision. Exposure of the inferior orbit, however, can be…

The importance of the dentition and contribution of the orthodontist to the care of cleft patients from infancy to adulthood are presented. Close communication between orthodontists and surgeons is emphasized. The orthodontic treatment plan…

The coronal incision has been modified so that if it needs to be extended to improve exposure, the extension will be behind the ear and therefore less noticeable. The incision has been used in 25 adults and 30 children with no complications…

Prolonged vascularized organ allograft survival and an improved quality of life are now possible for many transplant recipients. These advances are due largely to greater understanding of the immune response, the development of potent immun…

Tissue expansion has emerged recently as an alternative reconstructive procedure and has been used for the treatment of a variety of defects. This paper presents our experience with the use of tissue expansion exclusively for the treatment …
