[INTRODUCTION] Lawn mower injuries represent a rare cause for severe limb threatening wounds of the lower extremity in children. Most patients can be treated with simple wound treatment involving debridement and VAC therapy,. Major amputati…

[BACKGROUND] Lawn mower injuries can cause limb-threatening wounds in the lower extremities of children. Although most cases require only basic wound treatment, a minority need microsurgical and orthopedic reconstruction for limb salvage. T…

[OBJECTIVE] To examine the most common patterns of pain and symptom management strategies among adults living with cerebral palsy (CP), and to determine if there are differences by pain phenotype or co-occurring neurodevelopmental disorders…

[SUMMARY] Secondary breast reductions are increasingly being performed, but they are potentially associated with higher complication rates than primary mammaplasty. Necrosis of the nipple-areola complex (NAC) is a devastating complication t…

[BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES] Although rare, complications like skin dehiscence and necrosis after neurosurgery pose significant challenges by increasing the risk of infections spreading to the epidural, subdural, or intracerebral spaces. Thi…

[BACKGROUND] Complications after abdominoplasty remain an unsolved issue in body contouring surgery. The antifibrinolytic drug tranexamic acid (TXA) has gained increasing recognition as a valuable pharmacologic agent within plastic surgery.…

Undiagnosed disorders or gene mutations can lead to life-threatening events even in cosmetic surgery. Herein, the authors present a case of a young and supposedly healthy 36-year-old woman who survived an episode of bilateral pulmonary embo…

[BACKGROUND] The wide range of reconstructive purposes requires specific demands and considerations for appropriate flap selection. One versatile and reliable option, which is rarely reported in current literature, is the fasciocutaneous in…

[BACKGROUND] Although outpatient provision of services is economically desirable, many minor urological interventions in Germany are currently carried out on an inpatient basis. The aim of our study is to investigate whether the current hea…

[BACKGROUND] The length of the amputation stump is crucial for optimal prosthetic fitting and rehabilitation. Especially in traumatic amputation, direct closure of the stump may be challenging, and bone shortening is frequently needed. To a…

[BACKGROUND] There has been a shift in microsurgical education towards simulation training. Hence a number of training programs are being proposed to educate aspiring microsurgeons. However, it is challenging to master the skill of microsur…

[INTRODUCTION] Phalloplasty is a complex surgical task and remains a significant challenge in plastic surgery. To date, there are various techniques; however, complication rates are still not satisfactory. Here, we present our surgical appr…

Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have recently become a focus of regenerative medicine, both for their multilineage differentiation capacity and their excretion of proregenerative cytokines. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) …

[BACKGROUND] Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) have been identified as a population of multipotent cells with promising applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. ASCs are abundant in fat tissue, which can be safely harve…

[BACKGROUND] Medial thigh lift procedures in the massive weight loss population have been associated with significant complication rates. Liposuction-assisted medial thighplasty has recently been introduced as a technical advancement to imp…

[INTRODUCTION] Surgical wound closure is often complicated by suture-related issues. The recent introduction of knotless barbed sutures may address the shortcomings of conventional sutures and offer the additional benefit of reduced operati…

[INTRODUCTION] Pedicled perforator flaps in the trunk such as the DIEAP or the IMAP-flap have increasingly been used for reconstructive purposes. However, perforator flaps of the upper abdominal wall derived from the SEA and DIEA have not b…

We present a series of skin-sparing mastectomies (SSMs) with skin reduction and immediate breast reconstruction to treat large and ptotic breasts. The technique combines oncological mastectomy with immediate subpectoral implant placement as…
