[PURPOSE] To propose a novel surgical approach for managing inflammatory adhesions of the tunica vaginalis (TV) during vasoepididymostomy (VE), and to report surgical outcomes. [MATERIALS AND METHODS] A T-shaped incision of the TV was used…

Free flap reconstruction has become the standard of care for managing critical foot defects, particularly in diabetic forefoot plantar wounds. Key considerations in achieving optimal outcomes include minimizing flap failure risk, restoring …

Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) is a highly lethal toxin produced by the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium botulinum, which leads to nerve paralysis following poisoning. At present, there is no specific drug officially approved. Antibodies, parti…

[BACKGROUND] The prevalence of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) varies across different clinical settings, with evidence indicating its notable presence not only in psychiatric environments but also in dermatology and plastic surgery. This ar…

[BACKGROUND] Owing to its safety and convenience, botulinum toxin type A (BoNtA) has become a first-choice treatment for contouring calf muscle asymmetries or deformities. Different injection methods and dosages have been discussed in the l…

[BACKGROUND] The rapid development of cosmetic injections has led to an increased incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infection. [PATIENTS AND METHODS] Here, we presented a case of cutaneous Mycobacterium abscessus infection su…

[BACKGROUND] As a minimally invasive therapy, botulinum toxin A (BTXA) treatment effectively reduces the hypertrophy of the gastrocnemius muscle (GM). Patient satisfaction is, however, reported to be low after treatment, with a possible cor…

[BACKGROUND] Breast augmentation through the injection of polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAAG) was a popular procedure in the past, but it has since been prohibited due to various complications, including masses, migration, infection, inflammatio…

[INTRODUCTION] MU is an aggressive entity, and extended surgical resection is the primary treatment. The defects from an MU extended resection need repair using free flaps, of which the ALT free flap is the most common. [OBJECTIVE] This st…

[BACKGROUND] Spinal cavernous vascular malformation (SCM) is a rare type of spinal vascular malformation that can be easily misdiagnosed and overlooked, accounting for 5%-12% of all spinal vascular malformations. To date, surgical resection…

[BACKGROUND] Nonsurgical chin augmentation using hyaluronic acid (HA) has become a common procedure in cosmetic practices. This is offered to patients that prefer a nonsurgical, temporary method to correcting underdeveloped or retruded chin…

[PURPOSE] Radical surgery is the most effective treatment for Hirschsprung's disease. However, some children still have symptoms of intestinal dysfunction such as constipation, abdominal distension, and recurrent enterocolitis after operati…

[BACKGROUND] To assess long-term donor site morbidity after radial forearm free (RFF) flap harvesting. [METHODS] Enrolled patients were asked to complete the Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) questionnaire and undergo wrist …

Apoptosis plays a key role in keloids. Growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible gene 153 (GADD153) is regulated by apoptosis. Botulinum toxin type A (BTXA) can induce apoptosis in keloid fibroblasts. This research aimed to explore the hypothe…

[BACKGROUND] Autologous fat grafting is commonly used for soft-tissue augmentation and reconstruction in plastic surgery. However, long-term graft retention rates are unpredictable, especially in muscle-related fat grafting. [OBJECTIVE] To…

Direct exposure to cadmium (Cd) may induce persistent impairment in learning and memory. However, the outcomes of maternal exposure on the neurological development of offspring are much less clear, and the underlying mechanism leading to to…

[BACKGROUND] The purpose of this study is to determine which factors drive patients with diplegic cerebral palsy to walk without knee recurvatum despite hyperextension of the knee on physical examination. [METHODS] A retrospective review w…

[BACKGROUND] The pathophysiology of lymphoedema is poorly understood. Current treatment options include compression therapy, resection, liposuction and lymphatic microsurgery, but determining the optimal treatment approach for each patient …
