Refinements in autologous breast reconstruction (ABR) enable personalized approaches to align with patient preferences. The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap remains the primary choice due to its volume adequacy, but alternati…

[BACKGROUND AND INTRODUCTION] Microvascular surgery enables complex tissue repairs with free flaps. The Synovis Coupler has streamlined venous anastomoses, improving speed and precision. However, size discrepancies between donor and recipie…

[BACKGROUND] The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap represents the gold standard in autologous breast reconstruction; however, it is restricted by prolonged operative duration and substantial demands on inpatient capacity. We c…

[BACKGROUND] Free tissue transfer requires meticulous postoperative monitoring to detect vascular occlusion. Although experimental studies have explored the relationship between interstitial glucose levels and tissue perfusion, long-term ev…

Penile augmentation procedures are controversial, primarily because most men seeking these interventions have penile dimensions within the normal range, and due to the associated risks of severe complications. This narrative review explores…

[BACKGROUND] Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are widely used in aesthetic procedures but can lead to serious vascular complications, including skin necrosis and visual impairment. The timely administration of hyaluronidase (HYAL) is critical f…

Tissue expander-based breast reconstruction is widely used following mastectomy due to its relative technical simplicity, minimal additional anesthesia, and reversibility. However, complications such as tissue necrosis, impaired vascularity…

Follicular unit excision (FUE) is a widely used hair transplantation technique with a favorable safety profile; however, rare but severe complications such as recipient-site scalp necrosis can occur. We report a 46-year-old male with androg…

[BACKGROUND] Subscarpal fat represents a loose, hypovascular layer that contributes to flap tension and ischemic risk in abdominoplasty. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ultrasound-guided subscarpal liposuction using …

[INTRODUCTION] Autologous fat grafting remains a topic of debate, involving not only the pathophysiology of its absorption but also the techniques that promote better integration for more predictable results. [OBJECTIVE] This study aimed t…

[BACKGROUND] Rectus abdominis fat grafting (RAFG) has emerged as a valuable adjunct to liposuction and abdominoplasty to enhance muscular definition and abdominal contour. Despite its growing popularity, evidence regarding safety, standardi…

[INTRODUCTION] Although surgical site infection is one of the classic complications of breast reduction surgery, since 2024 the Société française d'anesthésie réanimation (SFAR) no longer recommends the administration of preoperative antibi…

[BACKGROUND] Superomedial pedicle breast reduction combined with a Wise pattern or vertical skin resection has become more popular recently. This review aimed to investigate the role of the type of skin resection that may alter the outcomes…

[BACKGROUND] Breast ptosis commonly arises from tissue laxity associated with aging, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, or lactation, often accompanied by upper-pole volume depletion. Post-lactational atrophy further exacerbates ptosis, causin…

[BACKGROUND] Macromastia, particularly in its severe form-gigantomastia-is characterized by excessive mammary tissue growth and significantly impairs quality of life through physical symptoms, psychological distress and functional limitatio…

[BACKGROUND] Skin-reducing mastectomy (SRM) represents a surgical option that provides patients with ptotic breasts the advantage of undergoing simultaneous nipple-preserving mastopexy in conjunction with mastectomy. Nonetheless, existing d…

[BACKGROUND] Age-related physiological changes may influence surgical outcomes following breast reduction. This study investigates the association between patient age and postoperative complications using a large institutional cohort. [MET…

[INTRODUCTION] In ptotic breasts, patients can undergo breast reduction or mastopexy before nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) to improve the esthetic outcomes. Literature also suggests the benefit of staged nipple-sparing mastectomy (SNSM) on…

[BACKGROUND] Vertical scar superomedial pedicle breast reduction offers a shorter scar and improved breast projection, yet its safety and outcomes in cases of severe macromastia remain under discussion. [METHODS] A prospective case series …

The non-surgical rhinoplasty is presented as safe by majority of authors, with very rare risk of vision loss and skin necrosis. Publications explain that by injecting with cannulas against the bone and cartilage, complications are really re…
