[BACKGROUND] Patients requiring plastic surgery exhibit more abnormal psychological trends (e.g., body dysmorphic disorder [BDD], depression, and anxiety) than those requiring other surgeries. However, there are only a few domestic studies …

[BACKGROUND] Three-dimensional facial stereophotogrammetry, a convenient, noninvasive and highly reliable evaluation tool, has in recent years shown great potential in plastic surgery for preoperative planning and evaluating treatment effic…

The reconstruction of mandibular defects may be delayed or compromised for many reasons, especially in pediatric patients. With the growth of the remaining mandible and the maxilla in the malocclusion status, secondary dentomaxillofacial de…

A palatogingival groove of the maxillary lateral incisor is an anatomic malformation, which always predisposes the tooth to pulpal and periodontal disease. The diagnosis and treatment planning become complicated, with uncertain prognosis. H…

[BACKGROUND] Nervus intermedius (NI) injuries are not given enough attention by neurosurgeons during vestibular schwannoma (VS) surgery. Preservation of NI function is essential for the integrity and continuity of the facial nerve, although…

[INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS] Vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) brings severe psychological, physiological, and social stress to patients, which seriously affects the quality of their sexual life. Traditional transvaginal repair surgery can cause…

[BACKGROUND] In cases of rectal cancer surgery, patients at high risk of anastomotic leakage often receive a defunctioning stoma (DS). However, its role in postoperative anastomotic strictures (AS) remains unclear. This study aimed to inves…

In microneurosurgery, it is crucial to maintain the structural and functional integrity of the nerve through continuous intraoperative identification of neural anatomy. To this end, here we report the development of a translatable system le…

Digital guided therapy (DGT) has been advocated as a contemporary computer-aided technique for treating endodontic diseases in recent decades. The concept of DGT for endodontic diseases is categorized into static guided endodontics (SGE), n…

[BACKGROUND] Currently, there is a lack of intuitive analysis regarding the development trend, main authors, and research hotspots in the field of cerebral arteriovenous malformation treatment, as well as a detailed elaboration of possible …

Since our team reported the application of robot-assisted surgery in facial contouring surgery in 2020, further clinical trials with large samples have been conducted. This paper will report the interim results of a single-center, large-sam…

[BACKGROUND] The ageing in the mid-face involves volume deficiency in multiple anatomical units, including the zygomatic arch, infraorbital region, medial and lateral cheek and nasolabial fold (NLF). Hyaluronic acid (HA) is extensively used…

[PURPOSE] We investigated the effectiveness of intravesical botulinum toxin-A (BTX-A) injection therapy in patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) and upper urinary tract (UUT) deterioration and evaluated whether BTX-A injectio…

[BACKGROUND] Augmentation uretero-enterocystoplasty (AUEC) provides a low-pressure urinary storage capsule that can preserve renal function in patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction for whom conservative treatments have failed. [OBJ…

Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is a rare movement disorder characterized by involuntary muscle contractions on one side of the face. Compared to the high therapeutic effect, adverse effects of botulinum toxin treatment for HFS occurred rarely. Howe…

Previous studies have demonstrated the tumor-suppressive function of microRNA-22-3p (miR-22-3p) in several cancers, whereas the significance of miR-22-3p in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unclear. In this study, we explored the …

Heterotypic cell-in-cell structures (heCICs) are closely related to tumor development and progression, and have become a new frontier in life science research. Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1) belongs to the classic Rho GTP…

[PURPOSE] To establish a three-dimensional method to evaluate whether there is a difference in stability between bimaxillary simultaneous genioplasty and simple genioplasty. [METHODS] This study was a retrospective study. Sixty patients wh…

[PURPOSE] This study aimed to investigate the visual attention of genioplasty trainees using eye-tracking technology, with the goal of providing insights for optimizing genioplasty training strategies. [METHODS] Trainees were recruited for…

[BACKGROUND] Although widely accepted as an optimal procedure in thigh contouring, liposuction can result in complications, such as skin irregularity or aspiration inadequacy. A main cause might be insufficient knowledge of the superficial …

[BACKGROUND] was first reported in 2011 from polymicrobial infections in central bearded dragons. Human infections caused by remain rare, with only four cases published in the PubMed database. Herein, we present an unusual Chinese case of …

[BACKGROUND] Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) has been proven to decrease the amount of opioid use and reduce postoperative pain for a variety of surgeries, including breast reconstruction. However, data on ERAS in breast augmentation…

[BACKGROUND] Tessier No.0 cleft with a bifid nose is a rare malformation. Reconstruction of the nose is essential for children/adults to correct facial cosmetic defects and contribute to developing patients' mental health. The aim of the st…

[BACKGROUND] The camouflage of the nasal dorsum is very important for thin-skinned patients. In this study, the authors presented an improved method for these patients and evaluated the safety and efficacy of this method in augmentation rhi…

[OBJECTIVE] To estimate the complications using autologous costal cartilage as grafts in rhinoplasty objectively and systematically with newly published literature. [METHODS] The literature was searched systematically; included studies wer…

[OBJECTIVE] Alar retraction is considered a challenge in rhinoplasty. The classification of alar retraction remains poorly defined, especially in Asia. Patients with alar retraction are associated with excessive exposure to the nostrils in …

[BACKGROUND] Historically, research of diced cartilage for rhinoplasty has mainly explored the efficacy of wrapped materials, with few studies dedicated to various sizes of diced cartilage. [OBJECTIVES] The authors of this study sought to …

Asian nasal characteristics include a low dorsum, short nose, and thick skin envelope, usually requiring lengthening and elevating the nose during rhinoplasty ( Facial Plast Surg Clin North Am 2007;15(3):293-307, v). The increase in rhinopl…
