[BACKGROUNDS] To observe the effect of ropivacaine intercostal nerve block combined with PCIA as early postoperative analgesia following breast augmentation surgery with prosthesis (axillary approach) METHODS: A total of 80 women with breas…

[BACKGROUND] Tumescent local anesthesia (TLA) involves the infusion of a saline solution containing lidocaine and epinephrine into tissues to achieve localized anesthesia and vasoconstriction. While the use of TLA in sub-glandular augmentat…

WALANT has gained much popularity in recent years, especially with COVID-19. However, a recent survey of the American Society for Surgery of the Hand membership (i.e. attendings/consultants) showed that only 17% were exposed to WALANT durin…

In medicine, dogmas are subject to evolution and refinement as new research and technologies emerge. The aim of this study was to search for dogmas which were challenged and potentially revised in the plastic surgery field. A search on PubM…

[BACKGROUND] Eyelid surgery is one of the top five aesthetic procedures. It is performed to improve both appearance and function, but intraoperative bleeding leads to adverse events which perturb patients. The objective of this study was to…

[BACKGROUND]  Lower extremity trauma often necessitates reconstruction with flap transfer. One of the reconstructive goals is a thin soft tissue coverage with appropriate contour. Therefore, a secondary debulking of the flap is usually perf…

[BACKGROUND] The use of wetting solutions (WSs) during high-volume liposuction is standard; however, the optimal amount of WS and its components and their effect on postoperative complications are unclear. We evaluated the effect of a WS an…

[OBJECTIVES] There is an absence of data in the literature regarding methods to improve the patient experience during the performance of awake in-office laryngeal injections. This study sought to evaluate whether the use of local anesthetic…

The objective of this study was to establish an animal model of arteriosclerosis for assessing vasospasm and to investigate the relationship between arteriosclerosis and vasospasm. Twelve-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a diet su…

[BACKGROUND] Epinephrine use during hand surgery has been stigmatized due to a fear of digital necrosis. Clinical experience in the past 2 decades has shown epinephrine in local anesthetic to be safe. We sought to analyze the use of epineph…

[BACKGROUND] Abdominoplasty is a common surgical procedure performed under general anesthesia, and although the use of TLA combined with subdural anesthesia has never been reported in abdominoplasty, it offers several benefits such as safe …

[BACKGROUND] Arm contouring has been a challenging issue for many years. Patients request contouring of their arms without incisions and with a shorter recovery time. Making an incision on the arm does not always lead to a nice scar, and in…

[BACKGROUND] Hemorrhage during rhinoplasty may impair the surgeon's visibility. Our objective was to examine the impact of subcutaneously administered Tranexamic acid (TXA) on bleeding during rhinoplasty. [METHODS] A three-blind randomized…

[INTRODUCTION] Local anesthetics (LAs) are routinely administered in plastic and reconstructive surgery, e.g., as tumescent anesthesia adjunct in liposuction. Historically, these substances were assumed to act cytotoxically. Thus, the appli…

[BACKGROUND] Conflicting evidence exists regarding the optimal waiting time for stable analgesic and vasoconstrictive effects after local infiltration of lidocaine with epinephrine. An objective review is needed to dispel surgical dogma. […

Blood pressure regulation is critical in patients undergoing microsurgical free tissue transfer; however, guidelines for addressing and preventing perioperative hypotension remain highly debated, with two current thought paradigms: (1) intr…

No study has assessed the effects of the incorporation of isolated lidocaine into botulinum toxin for reducing its pain or complications. Studies on the dilution of botulinum toxin with other materials are as well extremely few, small, and …

[BACKGROUND] Bleeding, a common intraoperative complication of liposuction, often causes pain and discomfort during recovery. Because of the vasoconstrictive effect of adrenaline in the tumescent solution, bleeding can be reduced; however, …

[PURPOSE] Hair transplantation using the sharp implanter method is increasing in popularity. However, there has been little discussion pertaining to surgical know-how or specific techniques that increase efficiency and precision. We describ…

[BACKGROUND] Although necrosis is a rare complication in hair transplantation, it is extremely traumatic for both the patient and surgeon and also has potential medicolegal consequence. Studies have shown that ischemia in the recipient bed …
