Application of Huge Bipedicle Anterolateral Thigh Free Flaps for Reconstructing Extensive Soft-Tissue Defects.
[BACKGROUND] The anterolateral thigh free flap is widely utilized for reconstructing complex wounds. Despite considerable advances in free flap procedures, partial flap loss remains a challenge, particularly with larger perforator flaps. Th…

Robotic-assisted technique in plastic and reconstructive surgery: Experience in Taiwan.
[BACKGROUND] Robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) has increasingly been applied in the field of plastic and reconstructive surgery, offering enhanced precision, reduced invasiveness, and improved patient outcomes. This review summarizes Taiwan's …

Comparative study of arterial and venous grafting for pedicle lengthening in head and neck microvascular reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] In the field of head and neck microvascular reconstruction, no previous study has compared arterial and venous grafting as methods of anterolateral thigh (ALT) pedicle lengthening. Therefore, we conducted this comparative study…

Ghost Cell Odontogenic Carcinoma: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Ghost cell odontogenic carcinoma (GCOC) is an exceptionally rare malignant odontogenic neoplasm with a significant potential for aggressive growth. Although the literature on this tumor is limited, its high recurrence rates suggest that ear…

Creating a context for recipient vessel selection in deep inferior epigastric perforator flap breast reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] In autologous tissue breast reconstruction, recipient vessels are important for artery perfusion and venous drainage to ensure free flap survival. There are insufficient clinical outcomes to select efficient recipient vessels i…

Nipple-sparing mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction with a deep inferior epigastric perforator flap without skin paddle using delayed primary retention suture.
[BACKGROUND] This study investigated the outcomes of nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) with a deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap using delayed primary retention suture (DPRS) to achieve superior breast esthetics. [METHODS] Betwe…

The role of vein grafts in reconstructive head and neck microsurgery.
[OBJECTIVE] Free tissue transfer is widely used for head and neck reconstruction. In certain circumstances, vein grafting is required to elongate free flap pedicles to connect them to appropriate recipient vessels. Because of controversy re…

Outcomes and quality of life in immediate one-stage versus two-stage breast reconstructions without an acellular dermal matrix: 17- years of experience.
[BACKGROUND] Advantages of one-stage implant-based reconstructions include expedited surgery and recovery. This study aimed to investigate clinical and patient-reported outcomes in one-stage implant-based breast reconstructions without acel…

The Effects of Combining Progressive Tension Sutures, Closed Drain, and Fibrin Sealant in Abdominoplasty Wound After Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flap Harvesting.
[BACKGROUND] This study is a retrospective review to compare combining progressive tension sutures, closed drain, and fibrin sealant effects on seroma formation, postoperative drainage volume, and hospital stay for abdominoplasty after deep…

Blimp-1-Mediated Pathway Promotes Type I IFN Production in Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells by Targeting to Interleukin-1 Receptor-Associated Kinase M.
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are a specialized subset of DCs capable of rapidly producing copious amounts of type I IFN (IFN-I) in response to viral infections. The mechanism regulating rapid production of IFN-I after pDCs are expose…

Lateral Inframammary Approach for Asian Augmentation Mammaplasty.
[BACKGROUND] The inframammary fold (IMF) approach for augmentation mammaplasty is less popular in Asia. The incision was modified to lateral IMF(L-IMF) for easy access and better outcome. The aim of this study was to evaluate if L-IMF appro…

The Transareolar-Periareolar Approach.
The periareolar approach is limited by areolar diameter. Asian women typically have smaller areolae than Western women. Voluminous and form-stable silicone implants demand larger incisions. Zigzag transareolar approaches closely approximate…
