[BACKGROUND] Capsular contracture is a challenging entity to treat with consistent success. Recently, acellular dermal matrix (ADM) has been shown to be a highly effective therapeutic adjunct, particularly for patients at high risk for recu…

Several strategies have been proposed to prevent hematomas and improve cervical contour in face lifts. One such strategy is the use of selective neck sutures. This article presents 3 surgical techniques to place selective sutures in face li…

The peri-areolar incision offers advantages in breast augmentation and is still commonly used. One disadvantage is the potential for developing postoperative infra-areolar indentation, especially in cases where this incision is re-used for …

[BACKGROUND] Capsular contracture following breast augmentation is prone to recurrence with conventional surgical therapy. Adding acellular dermal matrix improves results but significantly increases operating time and cost. This study teste…

[BACKGROUND] Breast augmentation surgery remains the most frequently performed aesthetic surgical procedure worldwide. However, many variations exist regarding preoperative planning, surgical management, and postoperative care. [OBJECTIVES…

[BACKGROUND] The purpose of this randomized controlled trial was to determine whether anatomical implants are aesthetically superior to round implants in breast augmentation. [METHODS] Seventy-five patients undergoing primary breast augmen…

[BACKGROUND] A survey was conducted to study current attitudes and common practices in breast augmentation. [METHODS] A 35-item electronic questionnaire was sent to the entire active American Society of Plastic Surgeons membership. It was …

[BACKGROUND] Lung cancer is the most common cancer worldwide and the leading cause of cancer death. With the development of targeted therapy against causative driver mutations, some patients have experienced dramatic responses that have con…

[UNLABELLED] Most breast reduction patients are highly satisfied after surgery. However, there is a subset of women who seek breast augmentation years later to restore lost volume chiefly associated with weight loss and postpartum changes. …

[LEARNING OBJECTIVES] After studying this article, the participant should be able to: 1. Assess patient physical characteristics that influence implant selection. 2. Adopt a system to aid in implant size selection. 3. Become cognizant of th…

Mastopexy includes multiple skin incision design and parenchymal manipulation options. Patient evaluation includes assessment of goals, degree of ptosis, tissue volume, skin quality, and breast position on the chest wall. There are critical…

[BACKGROUND] Implant size selection in breast augmentation patients is one of many variables to be determined before surgery. Few methods exist today that allow the patient to participate in this process and accurately determine optimal siz…

Breast augmentation is the most common cosmetic surgery procedure performed in the United States. The optimal approach to postoperative pain management in these patients, however, has yet to be determined. The objective of this study was to…

[BACKGROUND] Vertical mammaplasty is an effective alternative to inverted-T methods. Among other benefits, it results in a significantly reduced scar pattern. There exists a subset of patients with mild macromastia and minimal ptosis who ar…

[BACKGROUND] Breast augmentation is one of the most common plastic surgery procedures performed in the United States. The optimal approach to postoperative pain management has yet to be determined. [OBJECTIVE] The objective of this study w…

Traditional breast conservation therapy consists of lumpectomy and whole-breast irradiation. Local recurrence after breast conservation is usually managed with salvage mastectomy. Skin-sparing mastectomy and immediate autologous tissue reco…

Women treated for Hodgkin's disease with mantle irradiation have an increased risk for developing breast cancer. Typically, breast malignancy in Hodgkin's patients presents bilaterally in a younger age group. Skin flap ischemia, poor skin e…

A retrospective study of 220 patients was performed to review surgical design in breast augmentation. Three specific issues were studied: incision site, implant variables, and pocket plane selection. The influence of these three factors on …

Breast reduction using an inverted T scar skin design and a variety of glandular pedicle types is widely practiced and is the standard by which more recent limited scar techniques are judged. The inverted T procedures are attractive because…

Current trends in the development of breast reduction surgery include a few minor refinements in classic inverted-T scar methods but, more, the increased use of vertical-scar reduction mammaplasty. The benefits of the latter, which include …

Microsurgical free tissue transfer allows for the immediate reconstruction of any composite mandibular defect. Most patients are candidates for reconstruction, and careful preoperative planning is an important key to success. Osteocutaneous…

Foot injuries constitute a spectrum of problems that can be classified by severity. The development of successful techniques for the treatment of lower leg injuries has made the severity of a concomitant foot injury a key factor in determin…
