Performing a hand-sewn microvascular anastomosis is a technically challenging and potentially time-consuming task, the results of which can dramatically impact prolonged ischemia time and clinical outcomes. This scoping review aims to exami…

[BACKGROUND] Asymmetry of the bilateral nostrils is one of the most common deformities associated with secondary unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity. In this study, we introduce a novel concept of the "nostril ring" and propose a series of…

[BACKGROUND] Nasal base depression is a frequent aesthetic concern in rhinoplasty, particularly in patients with midfacial retrusion. This study introduces a fascia transplantation technique to correct alar base (paranasal) depression and r…

[BACKGROUND] Fat embolism syndrome (FES) is a rare and potentially fatal complication commonly observed after liposuction or fractures. Patients with FES often have an acute onset and a rapid course of disease. However, there is a paucity o…

[BACKGROUND] Opioid analgesics are commonly used for postoperative pain management in plastic surgery, despite risks regarding dependence and complications. This study evaluates the noninferiority of multimodal analgesia compared with tradi…

[BACKGROUND] Alar retraction is characterized by excessive nostril exposure and presents a significant challenge in rhinoplasty, particularly in cases of severe alar retraction. This study aimed to introduce a novel treatment approach for s…

[BACKGROUND] Bulbous nasal tips in East Asian patients are often caused by thick skin and soft tissue hypertrophy, presenting challenges in rhinoplasty. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of supratip excision combined with cartila…

High levels of precision, as well as controlled, efficient motions, are important components of microsurgical technique and success. An accurate and objective means of skill assessment is lacking in resident microsurgical education. Here we…

[BACKGROUND]  Perforator dissection and flap elevation are routinely performed for microsurgical reconstruction; however, there is a steep learning curve to mastering these technical skills. Though live porcine models have been utilized as …

Microsurgery is a complex subspecialty requiring fine manual dexterity and a thorough understanding of microsurgical techniques, requiring years of training to reach proficiency. On a global scale, trainees may not have access to a longitud…

[BACKGROUND]  Perforator dissection and flap elevation are routinely performed for microsurgical reconstruction; however, there is a steep learning curve to mastering these technical skills. Though live porcine models have been utilized as …

[INTRODUCTION] This case study aimed to investigate a disparity in the medical education pipeline by investigating the impact of fundamental microsurgical training on interest and desire to pursue a career in medicine. This research introdu…

[BACKGROUND] Supratip deformity, also known as pollybeak deformity, is a common complication of primary and secondary rhinoplasty, characterized by fullness in the supratip region. The correction of pollybeak deformity is a challenging proc…

[BACKGROUND] Nasal septal mucosal defects following rhinoplasty in Asian patients are uncommon complications. However, the reconstruction of such defects presents a challenging task in plastic surgery. The aim of this study was to present c…

[OBJECTIVES] Following primary surgery for unilateral cleft lip palate (UCLP), cleft lip nasal deformities (CLNDs) (nasal asymmetry, collapsed nasal alae, and a widened alar base) are generally inevitable and often require secondary rhinopl…

[OBJECTIVE(S)] It was the first study to apply and compare two CT methods to assess the validity and clinical significance of structural alterations of the nasal valve in patients with cleft lip nose for assessing nasal ventilation disturba…

[BACKGROUND] Plastic surgeons use loupes or operative microscope to aid in tissue dissection and anastomosis of structures. These devices have their own limitations in areas of visualization and weight. Current uses of augmented and virtual…

[BACKGROUND]  The value of a fully trained microsurgeon dedicated to a laboratory setting at an academic institution is largely unknown. Microsurgery training lacks a national standard despite its highly complicated nature. Our study aims t…

[BACKGROUND]  Preparation of the recipient vessels is a crucial step in autologous breast reconstruction, with limited opportunity for resident training intraoperatively. The Blue-Blood-infused porcine chest wall-a cadaveric pig thorax embe…

[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] The nasal contracture after rhinoplasty is one of the most severe complications in East Asian patients. The classification and treatment algorithm of nasal contracture have not yet been established. This study aimed to develop …

[BACKGROUND]  Preparation of the internal mammary artery (IMA) is a critical step in autologous breast reconstruction. Intraoperatively, there is limited opportunity for residents to practice this skill. Porcine models provide highly realis…

[PURPOSES] The aim of this study was to introduce a method for repairing donor site defects after harvesting forearm free flaps with dual triangular flaps combined with in situ small full-thickness skin flaps. [METHODS] Free forearm skin f…

[BACKGROUND] Peripheral nerve damage is a frequent problem, with an estimated 2.8%-5.0% of trauma admissions involving peripheral nerve injury. End-to-end, tension-free microsurgical repair (neurorrhaphy) is the current gold standard treatm…

[OBJECTIVE] To observe the curative effect of botulinum toxin A on masseter hypertrophy using three-dimensional stereophotogrammetry. [METHODS] 46 cases with masseter hypertrophy (92 masseters) who received botulinum toxin A injection were…

[OBJECTIVE] To evaluate the safety and effect of botulinum toxin A injection in the detrusor and external urethral sphincter in male patients with detrusor overactivity (DO) and detrusor external sphincter dyssynergia (DESD) secondary to sp…
