Postoperative complications of hypofractionated and conventional fractionated radiation therapy in patients with implant-based breast reconstruction: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
[INTRODUCTION] Post-mastectomy radiation therapy is an important component of adjuvant therapy for high-risk patients. However, radiation to reconstructed breasts can cause various complications. Recently, hypofractionated (HF) protocols ha…

Avoiding Pretarsal Denervation in Lower Blepharoplasty Incisions: Refined Pretarsal Motor Nerve Anatomy.
[BACKGROUND] Pretarsal atrophy is not uncommonly found in patients who have undergone a transcutaneous or transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty because of intraoperative denervation of the pretarsal orbicularis oculi. The motor-supplying c…

Botulinum Toxin Injection for Intractable Pain in Cancer Patients With Psoas Muscle Invasion.
Muscle invasion (MI) in patients with far-advanced cancer is often accompanied with pain. Conventional treatments used for pain relief may be associated with several side effects. We describe two cases of botulinum toxin injection (BTI) for…

Distribution of the Laterally Supplying Facial Nerve to the Orbicularis Oculi Muscle.
[BACKGROUND] The facial nerve that traverses the lateral border of the orbicularis oculi muscle is considered the primary motor for the muscle. Nevertheless, the lateral motor supply to the orbicularis oculi muscle has not yet been fully de…

High Therapeutic and Esthetic Properties of Extracellular Vesicles Produced from the Stem Cells and Their Spheroids Cultured from Ocular Surgery-Derived Waste Orbicularis Oculi Muscle Tissues.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are paracrine factors that mediate stem cell therapeutics. We aimed at evaluating the possible therapeutic and esthetic applications of EVs prepared from the waste human facial tissue-derived orbicularis oculi m…

The effect of botulinum neurotoxin type A on capsule formation around silicone implants: the in vivo and in vitro study.
This study confirms that botulinum neurotoxin type A (BoNT-A) decreases capsular contracture and elucidates a possible mechanism. Silicone blocks were implanted subcutaneously in 20 mice. The experimental groups received BoNT-A (1, 2·5 or 5…

Two-dimensional analysis of palpebral opening in blepharoptosis: visual iris-pupil complex percentage by digital photography.
The vertical dimension of the palpebral fissure and the marginal reflex distance are conventionally used to assess the amount or degree of blepharoptosis, and levator function is assessed by measuring total upper lid excursion between the e…
