[OBJECTIVE] The literature on the patients' satisfaction after rhinoplasty is limited. The purpose of our study was to use the patient-reported outcome measures to study the difference of satisfaction between men and women and between diffe…

[BACKGROUND] Although costal cartilage is a reliable source of cartilage for rhinoplasty and provides a strong scaffold for total nasal reconstruction, traditional collection techniques may cause complications at the donor site. In this pap…

[BACKGROUND] The debate on thread rhinoplasty (TR) has never stopped owing to its complications. However, few studies have reported the clinical characteristics of TR complications, as well as their treatment. [AIMS] We aim to summarize th…

[BACKGROUND] Reconstructing a well-defined nasal tip is a big challenge for East Asian patients, especially with nasal tip irregularities or short noses in revision rhinoplasty. This study aims to report our experience with a modified large…

We report the case of a 5-year-old boy with progressive bilateral blepharospasm and blepharophimosis secondary to Schwartz-Jampel syndrome type 1A. Molecular findings confirmed two novel heterozygous mutations in the HSPG2 gene. After the p…

[BACKGROUND] The relationship between brain abnormalities and phenotypic characteristics in cervical dystonia (CD) patients has not been fully established, and little is known about the neuroplastic changes induced by botulinum toxin type A…

Type H vessel is a specific vessel subtype that is strongly positive for CD31 and endomucin (CD31Emcn). It has already been identified that it can tightly regulate the coupling of angiogenesis and osteogenesis in the long bone of mice and h…

[OBJECTIVES] Effective strategy for the treatment of depression is limited. This study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of botulinum toxin A (BoNT/A) in the treatment of depression. [METHODS] Seventy-six patients were assigned to th…

[BACKGROUND] Although single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT/CT) could help to predetermine dystonic muscles in patients with cervical dystonia (CD), its efficacy in aiding botulinum toxin injection is undetermined. This randomiz…

[OBJECTIVES] Our study aimed to explore the clinical therapeutic effects of ultrasound-guided five-point injection of botulinum toxin type A for patients with trapezius hypertrophy. [METHODS] Twenty female patients diagnosed with trapezius…

The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of treatment-combined electrocauterization after removal of apocrine sweat glands with ultrasound-guided (BOTOX) injection for adolescents with axillary bromhidrosis. From January 2015 to…

[BACKGROUND] For East Asians, rhinoplasty procedures are predominantly focused on reconstructing a well-defined nasal tip. In this study, the authors present a new graft design for the columellar strut that is similar to the shape of a comm…

[BACKGROUND] For costal cartilage-based rhinoplasty, a method that could properly manage warping of the columellar strut graft and facilitate establishing a stable cartilaginous framework remains desirable. In this study, the authors presen…

[OBJECTIVE] To evaluate the effectiveness of autologous costal cartilage-based open rhinoplasty in the correction of secondary unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity. [METHODS] Between January 2013 and June 2020, 30 patients with secondary u…

[BACKGROUND] A solid tip support plays the fundamental role in augmentation rhinoplasty for East Asians. However, the soft tissue envelope is sometimes limited; the bilateral alae and mucosae cannot be transposed to consolidate the full cou…

[BACKGROUND] Effective leadership is an integral component for optimal academic performance of surgical units. As one of the leading plastic surgery academic medical centers in China, the authors would like to share their experiences of usi…

[OBJECTIVE] To investigate the effectiveness of free sensate intercostal artery perforator flap for the hand soft tissue reconstruction. [METHODS] Between March 2010 and September 2015, 19 cases of hand soft tissue defect were repaired wit…

This study aims to describe the role of open surgical treatment for focal brainstem gliomas (FBSGs) with the assistance of multimodal neuronavigation and intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IOM) in children to investigate the effi…

[PURPOSE] The use of two operating microsurgeons has been shown to improve the efficiency and reduce the operative duration of microsurgical breast reconstruction (MSBR). However, the impact of this practice on healthcare cost has not been …

[INTRODUCTION] The key point for botulinum toxin type A injection in treating cervical dystonia is to accurately identify dystonic muscles. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of technetium-sestamibi single-photon emission computed to…

[PURPOSE] This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of [Tc]sestamibi ([Tc]MIBI) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging for the identification of dystonic muscles in primary cervical dysto…

The rise in the incidence of androgenetic alopecia (AGA) in China has increased the inclination toward hair transplantation. To calculate the optimum density of hair follicles needed covering both the hairless area and the safe donor area (…

[BACKGROUND] Capsular contracture (CC) is a complication of breast augmentation that frequently requires revision surgery. The axillary approach reduces the visibility of the postoperative scar. It is unclear whether the previous incision c…

[BACKGROUND] Skin necrosis is considered the most serious complication of hyaluronic acid dermal filler injection procedures. To effectively treat skin necrosis, hyaluronidase injection is one of the essential preventative treatments, and y…

[RATIONALE] Botulinum toxin injection is a widely used procedure for the treatment of the dysfunction of the upper esophageal sphincter (UES). Although the injection can be guided by ultrasound, electromyography, or computed tomography, suc…

[BACKGROUND] Historically, physicians have relied on their subjective measures when determining the site and dosages for botulinum toxin type A injections. Digital image speckle correlation is a technology that tracks pore movement from res…

Vascular calcification (VC) is a hallmark feature of cardiovascular disease and a significant risk factor for morbidity and mortality. Salusin-β exerts cardiovascular regulating effects in hypertension, atherosclerosis, and diabetes. The pr…
