Prepectoral breast reconstruction without acellular dermal matrix (ADM) is gaining attention as a potentially safe and effective approach, particularly in non-irradiated patients. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of imme…

[BACKGROUND] Patients undergoing deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstruction are at increased risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE) due to prolonged operative times, cancer-associated hypercoagulability, and postop…

Facial burns often result in cicatricial eyelid retraction, causing corneal exposure, ulceration, and vision loss. Traditional reconstructive methods, such as full-thickness skin grafts or local flaps, frequently fail in extensive burns due…

[BACKGROUND] Hyperhidrosis, or sweating beyond the physiological amount, can be either focal or generalized and sometimes runs in families. The prevalence of primary idiopathic hyperhidrosis is 2-5%. Secondary hyperhidrosis is associated wi…

[UNLABELLED] Mastopexy surgery is among the procedures most requested by patients after massive weight loss. Many require a florid and voluminous breast, which is achieved thanks to the implantation of a breast prosthesis. However, mastopex…

Like small ruminants, alpacas are prone to urethral obstruction, commonly caused by urolithiasis. Surgical intervention, such as perineal urethrostomy, is often necessary, though recurrent strictures and impaired healing pose significant ch…

Patients with head and neck cancer commonly experience severe neuropathic pain. This pain is often challenging to treat and may be refractory to standard analgesic approaches. We describe the use of subcutaneous Botox injections to manage p…

[BACKGROUND] Aging-related changes of the mandibular margin are common, and with increasing aesthetic awareness, the demand for non-surgical jawline rejuvenation is growing. [OBJECTIVES] To compare the efficacy and safety of a facial biome…

[BACKGROUND] Mastopexy remains the gold standard for correcting breast ptosis, yet persistent limitations include insufficient restoration of upper pole fullness and lack of long-term projection. While prosthetic augmentation addresses thes…

[BACKGROUND] The repair of defects in the nasal columella has consistently posed a significant clinical challenge. This study aims to examine the feasibility and effectiveness of scalp composite tissue transplantation for the reconstruction…

[BACKGROUND] Prediction of flap weight is valuable for surgical planning when using a deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap for breast reconstruction and may reduce donor site morbidity and perfusion-related problems. The a…

Zygomatic implant perforated (ZIP) flap reconstruction offers immediate surgical rehabilitation following maxillectomy, integrating oncologic zygomatic implants with a fascio-cutaneous free flap. A critical technical challenge is safely per…

This article presents a comprehensive, anatomically precise approach to deep plane facelift surgery in male patients, a demographic with increasing interest in facial rejuvenation but historically underserved by techniques optimized for fem…

Several techniques for performing mastopexy and reduction mammaplasty have been reported; however, none has effectively maintained breast and upper pole projection. Silicone implants address these limitations but are associated with higher …

[PURPOSE] To report the clinico-demographic profile and management outcomes of periocular and subconjunctival dirofilariasis. [DESIGN] Retrospective observational study. [SETTING] Institutional study. [METHODS STUDY POPULATION] Seventy p…

[BACKGROUND] Before primary rhinoplasty, it is crucial to identify patients whose concerns may not be adequately addressed by surgery. In 1999, Gorney and Martello introduced SIMON to describe patients who may be unsatisfied: single, immatu…

Facelift procedures have undergone rapid evolution in the last century, with initially subcutaneous techniques now shifting to superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) manipulation and deep plane techniques, along with the popularizatio…

[BACKGROUND] Tranexamic acid (TXA) is widely used in plastic surgery to reduce perioperative blood loss, hematoma formation, and postoperative ecchymosis. Its incorporation into tumescent solution for liposuction and fat grafting has increa…

The aim of this manuscript was to describe a surgical technique to modify Tapia's flap for malar volume enhancement, to describe the results of an anatomical study of the transverse facial artery, and to present the results of a retrospecti…

Prune Belly Syndrome (PBS) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by severe abdominal wall muscle deficiency, leading to significant impairment of respiratory, urinary, and gastrointestinal function. Despite numerous reconstructive att…
