Clinical features and long-term surgical outcomes of conus medullaris hemangioblastomas.
[BACKGROUND] Conus medullaris hemangioblastomas (HBs) are extremely rare vascular pathologies. The clinical-radiological features and long-term surgical outcomes of this rare disease are still lacking because of its rarity. [OBJECTIVE] Thi…

Exogenous Sex Hormones and Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting Risk in Transgender Patients.
[BACKGROUND] Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) remain a significant consideration in perioperative care; however, the incidence and risk factors of PONV in transgender patients are poorly understood. This study investigated the rates…

Long-term surgical outcomes and prognosis of cervical spinal hemangioblastomas.
[PURPOSE] Hemangioblastomas (HBs) occurring in the cervical spinal region are infrequently reported. Surgical resection of cervical HBs poses a significant challenge, and the long-term therapeutic outcomes remain unclear. [METHODS] A compr…

Intraoral microvascular anastomosis: A minimally invasive technique for lateral arm free flap tongue reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Reconstruction of tongue defects following oncologic resection remains a clinical challenge, requiring both functional and aesthetic restoration. Lateral arm free flap (LAFF) provides a thin and pliable option with minimal dono…

The Mediating Roles of Objectified Body Consciousness About Acceptance of Cosmetic Surgery Among International Students in China.
[BACKGROUND] Studies on acceptance of cosmetic surgery may not be cross-culturally invariant, but little is known about it in non-Western populations. Therefore, it is necessary to develop cross-cultural research on it. [METHODS] 230 inter…

Hemangioblastomas of the cauda equina: Clinical features and long-term surgical outcomes.
[BACKGROUND] Spinal hemangioblastomas (HBs) that involving cauda equina are rare. Data on clinical characteristics and long-term intervention outcomes of patients harboring cauda equina HBs remain lacking due to its scarcity. [OBJECTIVE] T…

Breast implant-associated squamous cell carcinoma in a male patient: A case report and review of the medical literature.
[BACKGROUND] Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the breast is a rare tumor type. The diagnosis of this tumor type is more frequently made only after microscopy evaluation. Breast implant-associated SCC is rarer with medical literature…

Platelet-rich fibrin/anorganic bovine bone mineral complex as grafting materials in endodontic microsurgery with a large lesion size: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial.
[INTRODUCTION] Endodontic microsurgery is a treatment of last resort for preserving natural teeth. According to radiographic evaluation, the percentage of complete healing after endodontic microsurgery is only 74.3%. The use of regenerative…

Vessel anastomosis in free flap reconstruction for oral and maxillofacial defects: techniques and key points.
The quality of vessel anastomosis is a key element for the success of free flap reconstruction. When adopting free flaps for oral and maxillofacial defect reconstruction, skills in selecting vessels, determining the clinical manifestations …

Evaluation of a dynamic navigation system for endodontic microsurgery: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial.
[INTRODUCTION] Endodontic microsurgery is a very important technique for preserving the natural teeth. The outcomes of endodontic microsurgery largely depend on the skill and experience of the operators, especially for cases in which the ap…

Reconstruction of parotid duct defect with autologous vein graft and vascular coupler after buccal mucosa cancer resection.
The distal end of parotid duct is often inevitably resected en-block with the buccal mucosa cancer to obtain safety margin and prevent local recurrence. Ligation of duct frequently causes complications like cheek swelling, fistula and gland…

Comparative Effectiveness of Minimally Invasive Nonsurgical Treatments for Plantar Fasciitis: A Network Meta-analysis of 30 Randomized Controlled Trials.
[BACKGROUND] Several minimally invasive nonsurgical treatments have been widely applied for plantar fasciitis (PF). To date, controversy still exists regarding the effectiveness of these approaches for treating PF. [OBJECTIVE] The purpose …

Comparison of hand-sewn versus modified coupled arterial anastomoses in head and neck reconstruction: a single operator's experience.
Microvascular coupler devices have gained wide acceptance as an alternative to the traditional hand-sewn technique in reconstructive surgery. However, no study has directly compared the efficacy of the coupler and hand-sewn techniques in ar…

Identification of mammary epithelial cells subject to chronic oxidative stress in mammary epithelium of young women and teenagers living in USA: implication for breast carcinogenesis.
Current knowledge of changes in the mammary epithelium relevant to breast carcinogenesis is limited to when histological changes are already present because of a lack of biomarkers needed to identify where such molecular changes might be on…

Immunocytochemical localization of sex steroid hormone receptors in normal human mammary gland.
The sex steroids, estrogens, progesterone, and androgens, all play a role in mammary development and function. To precisely identify the sites of action of these steroids, we studied the localization of the estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha)…
