We present a coaxial fiber probe that integrates optical coherence tomography ranging and fiber Bragg grating force sensing within a single-mode fiber, enabling synchronized distance-force feedback for minimally invasive interventions. A sh…

[BACKGROUND] The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap technique has gained popularity due to its muscle-sparing properties, significantly reducing morbidity and enhancing aesthetic outcomes in breast reconstruction. In a consider…

[PURPOSE] Whole eye transplantation (WET) is a promising approach for vision restoration in severe ocular damage. This study pioneers an allogeneic whole-eye transplantation model in non-human primates, designed to: (1) Establish standardiz…

[BACKGROUND] Determining the need for a bipedicled deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is a critical challenge in delayed breast reconstruction. The traditional, experience-based approach is often subjective and inaccurate. We a…

[BACKGROUND] Gynecomastia, a common condition involving benign breast tissue enlargement in men, poses challenges for plastic surgeons, especially in severe cases. Current surgical methods for severe gynecomastia often require complex, inva…

[BACKGROUND] Cell-free fat extract (CEFFE) has shown promising therapeutic effects on osteoarthritis (OA) in preclinical studies, but its clinical role remains unclear. [PURPOSE] To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intra-articular autol…

[OBJECTIVE] This study aims to evaluate the preoperative awareness of Chinese women with macromastia regarding their breast condition, explore the impact of macromastia on their physical and psychological health, and understand their needs …

[BACKGROUND] Oil cyst formation is a common complication following autologous fat grafting (AFG) for breast augmentation. Despite various fat processing techniques, no consensus exists on the optimal method to mitigate this complication. Th…

[BACKGROUND] Driven by advancements in deep learning, surgical robots, and predictive modeling technologies, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and plastic surgery has expanded rapidly. Although AI shows the potential to enhanc…

[BACKGROUND] Capsular contracture is the most common complication following breast implant surgery. Its incidence has been associated with implant- and surgery-related factors. We observed significant regional differences in capsular thickn…

Thinning of anterolateral thigh flap is challenging. Anatomical studies have shown variations in arterial branching patterns in the subcutaneous layer, which were suspected to be the reason for the high frequency of thinning failures. We at…

[BACKGROUND] There is a lack of reliable evidence on the surgical outcomes of profunda artery perforator (PAP) flap breast reconstruction. We conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate its safety and compare it with deep inferior epigastric perf…

[AIM] To compare the accuracy and treatment time of a robotic system (RS) and a dynamic navigation system (DNS) in osteotomy and root-end resection in an in vitro study. [METHODOLOGY] In this study, four identical mandibular models were cr…

[BACKGROUND] External root resorption is a pathologic process starting from the root surface of the tooth. At present, there are few reports about the treatment of vital pulp preservation in the tooth with external root resorption. [CASE P…

[BACKGROUND] Secondary lymphedema, a common complication following lymph node dissection, affecting up to 53% of cancer survivors, imposes significant morbidity and reduced quality of life. Immediate lymphatic reconstruction (ILR) has emerg…

[OBJECTIVE] Left ventricular pressure overload models using adult mice or rats were developed 60 years ago; however, a neonatal mouse model of left ventricular pressure overload was reported only 5 years ago. Moreover, how left ventricular …

[OBJECTIVE] This study examines the effects of preoperative oral carbohydrates on the perioperative period of Fibula Free Flap surgery in oral cancer patients, aiming to enhance postoperative recovery. [METHODS] The study involved 89 patie…

[OBJECTIVE] To compare and analyze differences in the clinical effect and postoperative urodynamic indexes of microsurgery combined with covering new urethra by multilayer fascial tissue coverage tissues and conventional surgery alone in th…

[BACKGROUND] Increased pulmonary blood flow (IncPBF), one of the most important features of many children with congenital heart diseases, is well-known as a prerequisite for the induction of pulmonary arterial hypertension. However, due to …

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients undergoing free flap reconstruction face a high risk of surgical site infection (SSI). Logistic regression (LR) models for SSI prediction are limited by linear assumptions, while machin…

[BACKGROUND] For females in puberty, mastectomy caused by pathological gigantomastia usually brings significant psychological problems. Appropriate immediate breast reconstruction method is necessary. [OBJECTIVES] The aim of this study is …

[BACKGROUND] Non-invasive neuromodulation is a promising approach for improving spasticity and motor function after stroke. However, it is still unclear which type of non-invasive neuromodulation is effective and evidence of important diffe…
