[BACKGROUND] Reconstruction of clival defects may be challenging in expanded endonasal skull base surgery. We conducted a systematic review to evaluate the outcomes of vascularized flaps used for clival reconstruction. [METHODOLOGY] The fo…

[INTRODUCTION] Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is a disabling movement disorder characterized by involuntary, unilateral facial muscle contractions. Botulinum toxin (BTX) is the standard non-surgical treatment, but response variability exists, and p…

Dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) with concurrent flow-related ophthalmic artery aneurysms, particularly intraorbital aneurysms, are rare. Retrograde cortical blood flow and sinus thrombosis heighten the risk of rupture and optic nerve c…

[BACKGROUND] Congenital intracranial lipomas are rare, representing only 0.1-0.5% of brain tumors, and are typically asymptomatic. An extracranial component is exceedingly rare, usually reported in slow-growing adult cases. This report pres…

The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap remains the preferred flap option for autologous breast reconstruction following mastectomy. This case report presents the novel use of the cephalic vein (CV) as an interposition graft to …

[PURPOSE] Facial aging, characterized by skin laxity and the formation of wrinkles, is primarily attributed to collagen degradation and dermal thinning. Although ablative laser therapies have demonstrated efficacy in addressing these concer…

Facial expressions and their emotional attributes are essential as an adjunct to verbal communication and for nonverbal communication. Botulinum toxin (BoNTA) used to limit wrinkles induced by aging changes on expressive faces. However, sub…

Capsular contracture (CC) is the most common complication following breast augmentation and reconstruction. Although numerous risk factors and preventive strategies have been proposed, the etiology remains poorly understood. This study empl…

[OBJECTIVE] Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are the second most common vascular anomaly affecting the CNS in children. Although stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) has been proposed as an alternative to microsurgery in the management of…

[BACKGROUND] Multicompartmental lesions within the central nervous system are challenging due to their complex anatomy. This study evaluates the efficacy, safety, and utility of hybrid endoscopic and microsurgery versus endoscope-assisted m…

[BACKGROUND] Pediatric spontaneous intracranial dissecting aneurysms are rare, but systematic studies comparing hemorrhagic and ischemic presentations are lacking. This study addresses gaps in understanding their epidemiology, clinical pres…

[BACKGROUND] Microsurgical callosotomy is a procedure still under debate and to best a palliative treatment for drug-resistant epilepsy. Unlike microsurgery, radiosurgical callosotomy is an underpracticed treatment option, with no definite …

[PURPOSE] To assess donor site morbidity for patients who underwent mandibular reconstruction by fibula free flap. [PATIENTS AND METHODS] The data were recorded from medical records and clinical questioner of patients from 2013 to 2016. Pr…

[BACKGROUND] The chin is the most prominent and median sector of the lower third of the face giving harmony to nose and lips. The authors present the application of piezoelectric scalpel for the correction of different chin deformities. The…

Compromised free flap perfusion secondary to thrombus formation is a routinely encountered complication in microvascular free tissue transfer. Various modalities were tried out prophylactically to prevent thrombus formation, and likewise, v…

The recent rapid growth in dermal filler use, in conjunction with inadequate product and injector control, has heralded a concerning increase in filler complications. The 10-point plan has been developed to minimize complications through ca…

[BACKGROUND] There is a significant need for a targeted therapy for essential tremor (ET), as medications have not been developed specifically for ET, and the ones prescribed are often not well-tolerated, so that many patients remain untrea…

[BACKGROUND] The chin is the most prominent and median sector of the lower third of the face giving harmony to nose and lips. The authors present the application of piezoelectric scalpel for the correction of different chin deformities. The…

[BACKGROUND] Pseudoptosis (bottoming out) is a well-observed phenomenon occurring after all types of breast reduction surgery. The authors' team previously reported the use of three-dimensional (3D) imaging to demonstrate that significant m…

Despite the clinical relevance of bottoming out, or pseudoptosis, associated with reduction mammaplasty (RM) its evaluation remains an imprecise science. This study aims to further define the kinetics of postoperative pseudoptosis over an e…

Breast augmentation is one of the most common plastic surgery procedures performed in the United States today. Evaluation of postoperative results lacks true objective measurements. The following study reports the application of 3-dimension…

[BACKGROUND] Feasibility of composite tissue allotransplantation (CTA) has been substantiated by transplantations of the hand, abdominal wall, and face. CTA has the potential to reconstruct "like with like," but the risk-to-benefit ratio an…
