The LYMPH trial: comparing microsurgical with conservative treatment for chronic breast cancer-associated lymphoedema - study protocol of a pragmatic randomised international multicentre superiority trial.
[INTRODUCTION] Up to one-fifth of breast cancer survivors will develop chronic breast cancer-related lymphoedema (BCRL). To date, complex physical decongestion therapy (CDT) is the gold standard of treatment. However, it is mainly symptomat…

Impact of Adjuvant Radiotherapy on Free Flap Volume in Autologous Breast Reconstruction: A Scoping Review.
In autologous breast reconstruction, a sufficient flap volume is fundamental to restore breast shape and ensure an aesthetic outcome. After mastectomy, postoperative irradiation is regularly indicated in the oncological treatment algorithm.…

Combining reconstructive and ablative surgical treatment of chronic breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL): safe and effective.
[PURPOSE] We investigated whether a one-stage combination of vascularized lymph node transfer (VLNT) with water jet-assisted liposuction (WAL) can be safely performed and results in improved patient outcomes such as a greater reduction in a…

Improved Adipocyte Viability in Autologous Fat Grafting With Ascorbic Acid-Supplemented Tumescent Solution.
[INTRODUCTION] In reconstructive surgery, fat volume augmentation is often necessary for esthetic or functional reasons. As an alternative to synthetic and xenogeneic materials, autologous fat grafting (AFG) based on liposuction is gaining …

Validating Facial Aesthetic Surgery Results with the FACE-Q.
[BACKGROUND] In aesthetic clinical practice, surgical outcome is best measured by patient satisfaction and quality of life. For many years, there has been a lack of validated questionnaires. Recently, the FACE-Q was introduced, and the auth…

Low osmolality and shear stress during liposuction impair cell viability in autologous fat grafting.
[BACKGROUND] Liposuction and subsequent autologous fat grafting have become essential techniques for fat augmentation in plastic surgery. However, standard harvesting techniques that ensure the survival of adipocytes and stromal vascular fr…

Standardization of oncoplastic breast conserving surgery.
The emphasis on esthetic outcomes and quality of life after breast cancer surgery has motivated surgeons to develop oncoplastic breast conserving surgery (OPS). Training programs are still rare in most countries, and there is little standar…

Bacterial biofilms and capsular contracture in patients with breast implants.
[BACKGROUND] It has been hypothesized that bacterial biofilms on breast implants may cause chronic inflammation leading to capsular contracture. The association between bacterial biofilms of removed implants and capsular contracture was inv…

Breast reconstruction facilitated by vertical banded gastroplasty.
[BACKGROUND] Vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) causes weight loss, which is often associated with redundant abdominal tissue. This redundant tissue can be used successfully for breast reconstruction or breast augmentation in case of mastec…
