: The reconstruction of hand defects, especially involving the dorsal region of the hand, has remained a challenge for surgeons because of its anatomical features and complex functions. The goal of reconstruction should include functional r…

Soleus muscle necrosis is a rare complication following fibula free flap harvest for mandibular reconstruction. This report presents a case of soleus necrosis without compartment syndrome or infection and reviews the blood supply of the sol…

Varioaus methods are available to address fingertip injuries, which are becoming increasingly common. Coverage should ideally involve both functional and aesthetic improvements. The second toe pulp-free flap is useful because of its similar…

[CASE] We present a case of an elderly female patient with a chronic lower leg wound involving bone exposure in the tibia. Despite the absence of overt infection, low-grade osteomyelitis was suspected. Given the patient's age and overall fi…

[INTRODUCTION] While the aluminum chloride-based hemostatic agent Expasyl is proposed for efficient hemostasis in endodontic microsurgery, its high viscosity may hinder removal and lead to adverse tissue reactions. Traxodent, with lower vis…

Recently, various biocompatible and biodegradable materials have garnered significant attention as cosmetic fillers for skin rejuvenation. Among these, poly ε-caprolactone (PCL), poly L-lactic acid (PLLA), poly D,L-lactic acid (PDLLA), and …

Genioplasty is a crucial procedure in maxillofacial and craniofacial surgery for both aesthetic and functional chin correction. The procedure is performed using various techniques-including sliding genioplasty, advancement, setback, vertica…

Procedural sedation is often performed by non-anesthesiologists in various settings and can lead to respiratory depression. A tool that enables early detection of respiratory compromise could not only enhance patient safety during procedura…

Despite significant clinical utility, current soft tissue reconstruction modalities employing enriched grafts or liposuction impose considerable limitations including volume reduction and donor-site morbidity. Here, we present a biomimetic …

[BACKGROUND] Fibromatosis of the breast, also known as desmoid-type fibromatosis (DTF), is a rare tumor marked by the development of non-metastatic, locally aggressive tumors in breast tissue. It represents only 0.2% of all breast tumors. I…

Intermediate rhinoplasty, the correction of cleft lip nose deformities, is performed between the time of primary and secondary rhinoplasties, which is at ~6 years of age. Although intermediate rhinoplasty reduces psychological stress in sch…

(1) : The management of melanonychia is highly controversial. With growing melanonychia, in case of doubt, the entire lesion should be examined. It may appear similar to nail melanoma or may turn into melanoma. Here, we present surgical cas…

Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma is the second most common skin cancer. There are many methods for the reconstruction of facial subunit defects after skin cancer excision. The face is vital to a person's life and should be reconstructed co…

: The lateral arm flap has been a very useful choice for the reconstruction of small to medium-sized defects, such as in the hands, extremities, and oral head and neck area. Its versatile characteristics and surgical feasibility allow this …

This study proposes a new and simple process that improves the quality of a hyaluronic acid (HA) filler crosslinked with 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE) using solution dispersion at a low temperature. This process involves the solven…

[INTRODUCTION] The purpose of this study was to investigate neural patterns within the gluteus maximus (Gmax) muscle to identify optimal EMG placement and injection sites for botulinum toxin and other injectable agents. [METHODS] This stud…

[BACKGROUND] Despite the increasing popularity of various materials for ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury mitigation, research on botulinum toxin type A (BoNTA) remains limited. This study assesses BoNTA's efficacy in protecting flaps from …

[BACKGROUND] Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are used extensively in periocular aesthetic medicine, and the incidence of filler-related complications is increasing. This study aimed to investigate the optimal dosing strategy for hyaluronidas…

[PURPOSE] An anterior communicating artery is a common location for both ruptured and unruptured intracranial aneurysms, and microsurgery is sometimes necessary for their successful treatment. However, postoperative infarction should be con…

[BACKGROUND] Vasopressors are used in up to 85% of cases during free flap surgery. However, their use is still debated with concerns of vasoconstriction-related complications, with rates up to 53% in minor cases. We investigated the effects…

As interest in skin aesthetics increases, treatments to suppress aging are increasing. Among them, a facelift is the most effective procedure for improving wrinkles. However, side effects including inflammatory reactions occur due to the li…

Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the breast is rare, representing less than 0.1% of all breast cancers. To date, there have been 20 reported cases of SCC associated with breast augmentation, usually in patients with long-standing im…

[BACKGROUND] Capsular contracture is the most common complication following breast implant surgery, and the implant shell characteristics are important in preventing this complication. [OBJECTIVES] The aim of this study was to evaluate the…

[BACKGROUND] Conventional tarsal fixation techniques for creating a static double-eyelid fold frequently result in a nonmobile overdepression of the fold, which is particularly pronounced in elderly patients. [OBJECTIVES] We propose a nove…
