Comparison of Upper Pole Between Immediate and Delayed Breast Reconstructions Using an Abdominal Free Flap.
[BACKGROUND] The deep inferior epigastric perforator flap has become the workhorse of autologous breast reconstruction (ABR). In delayed-immediate ABR, a tissue expander is placed during mastectomy and reconstruction is performed later. We …

[BLADDER OUTLET OBSTRUCTION (SUSPICIOUS FOR FOWLER'S SYNDROME) IN A WOMAN IN HER FORTIES: A CASE REPORT].
Dysuria is caused by bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and detrusor underactivity. Female BOO is often overlooked because it is difficult to diagnose a condition from history and symptoms alone. Fowler's syndrome is seen in young women and c…

Differences in Transient Fluid Retention and Lymphedema With Breast Cancer Treatment for Lymphatic Microsurgery.
[BACKGROUND] Breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) is a common complication. Repeated taxane-based chemotherapy has been shown to induce endothelial inflammation, leading to fluid retention. Patients with transient fluid retention only ha…

Utility of the intraflap perfusion procedure for abdominal free flap in unilateral breast reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Heparin prophylaxis for venous thromboembolism can be used in microsurgery. If vein anastomosis is performed before the artery, heparin irrigation into the artery can be performed locally without systematic effect. This study a…

Correlation between abdominal visceral volume measured by a simple procedure and bulging at the abdominal free flap donor site for breast reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Breast reconstructions using autologous abdominal tissue result in breasts with a natural shape and consistency. One of the major complications is abdominal bulging. Because of the increased abdominal wall tension, high viscera…

Intraflap Vascular Catheterization Method for Monitoring, Prevention, and Intervention of Thrombogenesis in Free-Flap Surgery.
[BACKGROUND] Thrombosis at the anastomotic site is a significant problem in free tissue transfer with microvascular anastomosis. We report a newly developed intraflap vascular catheterization (IFVC) technique for monitoring hemodynamics, pr…

Relationship between Preoperative Abdominal Wall Strength and Bulging at the Abdominal Free Flap Donor Site for Breast Reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Abdominal bulging at the donor site of free abdominal flaps for breast reconstruction is a common postoperative complication. In addition to the thickness of abdominal muscles, the authors identified the rectus abdominis diasta…

The usefulness of a free thinned deep inferior epigastric artery perforator flap and measurement of the vascular pedicle length: A thin flap with a long pedicle.
[BACKGROUND] The thinned deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap branching from the main trunk to the superolateral direction may be useful because of its long vascular pedicle. DIEP flap is used as an axial-pattern adipose flap. Th…

Correlation of the changes in physical activity and clinical results following lymphatic microsurgery.
[BACKGROUND] The physical activity (PA) of patients may change after microsurgical treatment for lower extremity lymphedema (LEL). We investigated whether PA changes perioperatively and whether it influences the treatment result. [PATIENTS…

Utility of autologous fibrin glue in the donor site of free abdominal flap for breast reconstruction: A randomized controlled study.
[BACKGROUND] Seroma formation at the donor site is a common complication of breast reconstruction using free abdominal flap. In this study, we assessed the benefits of use of autologous fibrin glue (AFG) at the donor site. [METHODS] This r…

Staged Treatment of Asymmetrical Age-related Changes in the Eyelid and Thyroid Eye Disease.
Blepharoplasty for thyroid eye disease (TED) has been indicated for the purpose of improving upper and lower eyelid retraction caused by exophthalmos. Both aponeurotic blepharoptosis and aging lower eyelid are common conditions that require…

Abdominoplasty with Lymphatic Microsurgery for Patients with Secondary Lower Extremity Lymphedema.
[BACKGROUND] Patients with secondary lower extremity lymphedema often develop suprapubic lymphedema. The authors developed a novel surgical method of shaping the lower abdomen and debulking suprapubic lymphedema with simultaneous reconstruc…

Beneficial effect of botulinum toxin A on Raynaud's phenomenon in Japanese patients with systemic sclerosis: A prospective, case series study.
Currently, there is no satisfactory treatment for Raynaud's phenomenon (RP) in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Recently, it has been reported that botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) injection was effective for the treatment of RP in SSc patients. The obje…
