[BACKGROUND] Ultrasound-guided regional field blocks are not widely used in outpatient plastic surgeries. The efficacy of truncal blocks (PEC1 + SAP) has not been established in plastic surgery. The purpose of this study was to analyze the …

[BACKGROUND] This study evaluates a specific breast augmentation (BA) technique in patients with pectus excavatum(PE) and its results in improving this deformity, augmenting the breasts, and correcting the concurrent breast asymmetry. [MET…

: The global popularity of gluteal augmentation has risen significantly, driven by the desire for enhanced buttocks size and shape to align with individual patient preferences. This increased demand has prompted extensive research into dive…

[BACKGROUND] Two-stages pre-pectoral breast reconstruction may confer advantages over direct to implant (DTI) and subpectoral reconstruction in selected patients who have no indication for autologous reconstruction. The primary endpoint of …

[BACKGROUND] Implant-based breast reconstruction after nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) presents unique benefits and challenges. The literature has compared outcomes among total submuscular (TSM), dual-plane (DP), and prepectoral (PP) planes…

[INTRODUCTION] Free-flap (autologous) breast reconstruction demonstrates superiority over alloplastic approaches but is offered infrequently. Enhanced recovery protocols can address postoperative challenges, but most literature is limited t…

[BACKGROUND] Breast reconstruction following nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) in patients with large or ptotic breasts remains challenging because of the risk of ischemic complications and the difficulty in managing the redundant skin envelo…

In this article, we present a modification of the NS/SRM technique in which the mastopexy design for skin reduction is undertaken with a wide-base bipedicled (WIBB) flap. The WIBB flap can be applied in both autologous and implant-based bre…

[BACKGROUND] Patients with breast augmentation facing a breast cancer diagnosis pose unique challenges for both breast and plastic surgeons in terms of treatment and reconstruction. Traditional submuscular direct-to-implant (DTI) breast rec…

[BACKGROUND] Reconstructive options that can be used following conservative mastectomy, skin-, nipple-sparing and skin-reducing mastectomies, allow a remarkable variety of safe methods to restore the natural shape and aesthetics of the brea…

Deep burns sequelae involving the upper limb are challenging even for experienced surgeons, mainly because local reconstructive options and donor sites are often compromised. The use of free flaps for this type of reconstruction remains dif…

 Perioperative management in autologous breast reconstruction has gained focus in recent years. This study compares two pain management protocols in patients undergoing abdominal-based free flap breast reconstruction: a past protocol (PP) a…

[BACKGROUND] Increased understanding of breast implant-associated anaplastic large-cell lymphoma has led to a shift away from textured breast devices. A few small studies have compared the complication rates of textured and smooth tissue ex…

[BACKGROUND] Implant-based breast reconstruction is the most common reconstructive approach after mastectomy. Prepectoral implants offer advantages over submuscular implants, such as less animation deformity, pain, weakness, and postradiati…

There is minimal information regarding free tissue transfers in very young infants, especially those less than a year old. It is often thought that that age remains a limit to free tissue transfers, with younger patients having smaller vess…

Neck reconstruction is challenging task as it requires achievement of both function and aesthetic form as it is exposed and visible part of body. Various reconstruction modalities like Skin graft to free flap has been described in literatur…

Tuberous breast deformity is characterized by a deficiency in the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the breast, as well as breast underdevelopment and asymmetry. Concomitant chest wall deformities are not uncommon and increase the diffi…

[BACKGROUND] Textured implants and expanders are associated with an increased risk of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL). As a result, plastic surgeons are utilizing smooth expanders, but many perceive these…

[BACKGROUND] Fat grafting is an effective procedure for breast augmentation, but the variations in this technique result in unpredictable fat retention. Therefore, animal models are needed to simulate the operation and the optimal layer for…

[BACKGROUND] Implant-based breast reconstruction has evolved over time. However, the effects of prepectoral breast reconstruction (PBR) compared with those of subpectoral breast reconstruction (SBR) have not been clearly defined. Therefore,…
