To evaluate the feasibility and clinical efficacy of a single-layer radial forearm free flap （RFFF） for through-and-through palatal defects. The single-layer forearm flap was used to repair 6 cases of perforating palatal defect due to oral …

[OBJECTIVES] Optimal contouring of fibula free flaps (FFF) for mandibulectomy often requires osteotomies. This study aimed to define criteria for initial gap width by evaluating whether postoperative gap size and other factors influence lon…

[BACKGROUND] Ptosis, the drooping of the upper eyelid caused by levator palpebrae superioris muscle dysfunction, is a common condition that can impair vision and quality of life. It can arise independently or as a secondary condition to dis…

[OBJECTIVES] Stable condyle positioning is crucial for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) function, but its long-term stability in patients undergoing segmental mandibulectomy with free fibular flap (FFF) reconstruction is unclear. This study ai…

Hyaluronic acid filler treatment is increasingly prevalent in the realm of plastic surgery, serving to correct a range of facial changes resulting from aging. Nevertheless, with its expanded application, an uptick in complications has been …

Botulinum toxin injections are frequently utilized in cosmetic procedures to diminish wrinkles and enhance facial aesthetics. Incorrect administration of botulinum toxin injections may result in facial muscle paralysis, commonly referred to…

Botulinum toxin is a noninvasive cosmetic procedure that relaxes facial expression muscles to mitigate the development of dynamic wrinkles. It inhibits nerve signals, temporarily paralyzes muscle activity, and reduces muscle contractions, t…

Botulinum toxin, as a common facial wrinkle removal product, can be used for facial rejuvenation or improvement of skin texture, which is a commonly used cosmetic injectable product. However, botulinum toxin may lead to decreased immune fun…

[BACKGROUND] Botulinum toxin injections are widely used in plastic surgery for aesthetic and therapeutic purposes. However, these procedures can occasionally result in adverse reactions. The potential effects of botulinum toxin on lactation…

[INTRODUCTION] This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the complications associated with prepectoral breast reconstruction (PBR) compared to subpectoral breast reconstruction (SBR) in patients diagnosed with breast cancer. [MATERIALS AND METHO…

The present study aimed to investigate outcomes following open surgery for extensive skull base ORN. Open surgery through a personalized sequential approach was employed to deal with five cases of extensive skull base ORN. Two patients with…

[OBJECTIVE] This study aims to explore the risk factors of vascular complications following free flap reconstruction and to develop a clinical auxiliary assessment tool for predicting vascular complications in patients undergoing free flap …

[BACKGROUND] In cases where the upper arm exhibits an irregular cylindrical appearance with subcutaneous fat concentrated primarily in the posterior lateral aspect, traditional localized fat suction techniques may lead to uneven or disharmo…

[BACKGROUND] Globally implemented for breast augmentation, polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAAG) always leads to breast deformity upon its removal. Despite a pressing need for breast reconstruction following PAAG removal to address aesthetic issue…

[BACKGROUND] Real-world literature evaluating the use of AlloDerm SELECT Regenerative Tissue Matrix in head- and neck-related procedures is limited. To inform patient care decisions, this study evaluated healthcare resource utilization (HCR…

[BACKGROUND] Porous high-density polyethylene (pHDPE) is an alternative material for a septal extension graft (SEG) in oriental rhinoplasty when autologous cartilage is limited. Although nasal packing (NP) and trans-septal suturing (TSS) te…

[OBJECTIVES] Oncologic risk is a serious concern of submental artery island flaps. Here, we introduce the contralateral-based submental artery island flap (C-SAIF) and demonstrate its feasibility and long-term oncological safety in reconstr…

[BACKGROUND] Cleft lip and/or palate (CLP) can lead to severe nasolabial deformities that significantly affect the appearance of the patient. Among all types of nasolabial deformities, narrow nostril deformities are the most troublesome, ca…

[BACKGROUND] Autologous costal cartilage has been used for augmentation rhinoplasty in Asia for many years. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety of hybrid grafting of costal cartilage for dorsal augmentation, septal recon…

Three-dimensional surface imaging systems (3DSI) provide an effective and applicable approach for the quantification of facial morphology. Several researchers have implemented 3D techniques for nasal anthropometry; however, they only includ…

[PURPOSE] The 2020-2021 interview cycle for integrated plastic surgery applicants was the first to be held virtually because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Here, we detail the largest study on integrated plastic surgery applicant perceptions aft…

[OBJECTIVE] This study aimed to investigate the clinical effect of diced cartilage on correcting nasal alar base depression in Asian cleft rhinoplasty. [METHODS] A retrospective study was conducted on 25 patients with nasal deformity, who …

[BACKGROUND] 3D computer-simulated technology is becoming popular in China. Rhinoplasty with costal cartilage is a good option for Asians. However, the application of 3D imaging in Asian rhinoplasty with costal cartilage has not been system…

. Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has been an alternative to axillary lymph node dissection as a standard procedure for breast cancer patients with clinically negative lymph nodes. Endoscopic technique has been developed for over 20 years…

[BACKGROUND] The most challenging part of rhinoplasty is nasal tip management. For East Asian patients with a bulbous under projected nasal tip with thick skin, autologous cartilage is considered the gold-standard graft material to provide …

[BACKGROUND] Large-volume displacement oncoplastic surgery using mastopexy/reduction mammaplasty designs is becoming increasingly popular in breast cancer surgery. A contralateral symmetry operation using similar mastopexy or breast reducti…

Dedicator of cytokinesis 1 (Dock1), a guanine nucleotide exchange factor, has been proven to facilitate cell survival, motility and proliferation via the activation of Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1). Engulfment and cell m…
