[PURPOSE] To report a rare presentation of periocular necrotizing fasciitis (NF) following a surgical site infection after aesthetic rhinoplasty. [CASE PRESENTATION] We present two otherwise healthy patients who developed periocular swelli…

At our breast reconstruction center, we have, over time, developed a focused program to increase access to care for low-resource patients. This program includes outreach clinics, physician extenders, care coordinators, and telehealth utiliz…

[OBJECTIVE] Vein grafting may provide a valuable option in microvascular free flap reconstruction for head and neck cancer when direct anastomosis is not feasible. This study assesses indications and outcomes, reappraises prevailing assumpt…

Vasopressor-induced digital ischemia is an uncommon but severe complication of life-preserving therapy in critically ill patients, arising from profound peripheral vasoconstriction that can progress from reversible hypoperfusion to irrevers…

Self-injection of non-medical substances, such as mineral or baby oil, into the breast for augmentation is an unsafe practice and can lead to serious complications. Chronic granulomatous inflammation and fat necrosis may develop, and the im…

[PURPOSE] Head and neck free flap (HNFF) surgery is essential in reconstructive surgery, addressing complex defects with tailored approaches. Despite high success rates, complications remain significant, influenced by patient comorbidities,…

[BACKGROUND] High-definition (HD) liposculpture aims to enhance male body aesthetics by sculpting natural muscular definition. However, one of the most commonly overlooked areas in the torso is the serratus triangle, whose definition is ess…

The role of soft tissue reconstruction in infection control of knee periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) treated with a two-stage exchange strategy remains controversial. This retrospective observational study analysed consecutive patients …

[BACKGROUND] Facelifts are commonly associated with postoperative complications. The hemostatic net has emerged as a promising approach to reduce these events. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the hem…

Simultaneous rhytidectomy and laser resurfacing has become a common single-stage facial rejuvenation technique. However, concerns remain, particularly with photothermal injury to undermined tissue. This is the first methodologically robust …

[BACKGROUND] Infraorbital herniated fat pads ("eyebags") are a frequent aesthetic concern. Surgical blepharoplasty remains the gold standard but is associated with downtime and potential complications. Fat apoptosis (FA) injection therapy i…

[BACKGROUND] Atherosclerotic vascular diseases remain the leading cause of death despite the use of lipid-lowering drugs. The development of more efficacious therapies targeting endothelial inflammation and endothelial-to-mesenchymal transi…

[RATIONALE] Autologous fat grafting is a widely used technique for facial contour restoration and is generally considered safe. Nevertheless, delayed inflammatory reactions may occur and, in rare instances, require surgical intervention. Ex…

Oil cysts and fat necrosis are common complications of breast trauma. With the increased availability and sophistication of breast imaging, fat necrosis has become a frequent and typically benign finding in radiological practice. Nonetheles…

[BACKGROUND] The deep inferior epigastric artery (DIEP) perforator flap is the primary reconstructive approach for autologous breast reconstruction. It is associated with minimal donor site complications and acceptable aesthetic outcomes fo…

[BACKGROUND] Cosmetic surgery tourism has increased rapidly, with growing numbers of UK patients returning with complications requiring NHS care. Limited regulation and inconsistent perioperative standards contribute to preventable harm. […

[BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES] Our findings indicate that the use of a lipodermal flap in one-stage pre-pectoral implant-based breast reconstruction was associated with relatively complication and revision rates in this cohort. However, compli…

[PURPOSE] The use of cosmetic fillers has become increasingly popular. Radiologists and sonographers should be aware of the ultrasonographic characteristics of the most commonly used cosmetic fillers and the sonographic features of their fr…

[BACKGROUND] Red breast syndrome (RBS) is a self-limited, non-infectious erythema historically linked to acellular dermal matrices (ADMs) in breast reconstruction. Recent reports suggest a declining incidence, potentially related to ADM adv…

[BACKGROUND] Successful periodontal regeneration depends on primary wound closure and interdental papilla preservation. In this case study, we introduce a novel triangle papilla access approach (T-PAA) performed under a surgical microscope …
