[INTRODUCTION] The radial forearm free flap (RFFF) is a versatile free flap in the reconstruction of head and neck defects. There is little consensus on the optimal technique for reconstructing RFFF donor site defects. Our group previously …

[BACKGROUND] Long-segment tracheal defects present complex reconstructive challenges due to the risk of airway collapse and disrupted mucociliary clearance. Osteocutaneous radial forearm free flaps (RFFFs) offer a promising alternative to t…

[OBJECTIVE] To understand the content of patient calls after functional rhinoplasty and to evaluate artificial intelligence chatbots' ability to provide accurate, intelligible, and safe responses. [STUDY DESIGN] Retrospective review. [SET…

[OBJECTIVES] Surgeons experience a risk for physical strain and injury secondary to physical demands in the workplace. To minimize injury and maximize career longevity, physicians should be aware of ergonomics pitfalls and postural correcti…

[OBJECTIVE] To identify practices in microvascular techniques in routine and challenging scenarios. [STUDY DESIGN] Cross-sectional study. [METHODS] A national survey addressing practices related to microvascular free flap reconstruction w…

[BACKGROUND] Esophageal defects can result from primary pathologies such as malignancy or stricture, or secondary ones such as perforation due to trauma or iatrogenic injury. Techniques, management, and outcomes of reconstruction in this se…

[OBJECTIVES] Patients undergoing head and neck free flap reconstruction (HNFFR) may have significant change to their baseline functional status requiring inpatient rehabilitation (IPR) after discharge. We sought to identify patient/procedur…

The treatment of facial nerve synkinesis remains complex and variable. To compare oral, palpebral fissure, and brow symmetry among surgical and nonsurgical interventions in patients with facial synkinesis. Patients with facial nerve synki…

ChatGPT and Google Bard™ are popular artificial intelligence chatbots with utility for patients, including those undergoing aesthetic facial plastic surgery. To compare the accuracy and readability of chatbot-generated responses to patient…

[BACKGROUND] Few objective measures are available for assessing the success of facial rejuvenation after face lift surgery. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) may be used for this type of measurement. The purpose of this investigation is …

[OBJECTIVES] This study evaluated the content and patient educational quality of YouTube videos on facelift surgery for facial rejuvenation. This study investigated the relationship between education quality compared to video content, video…

Nasal osteotomy is one of the most challenging steps of rhinoplasty. Lack of hands-on training and confidence with this procedure adds to the complexity for learners and trainees. As three-dimensional (3D) printing becomes increasingly acce…

[BACKGROUND] For difficult or rare procedures, simulation offers an opportunity to provide education and training. In developing an adequate model to utilize in simulation, 3D printing has emerged as a useful technology to provide detailed,…

[OBJECTIVE] The aim was to evaluate the difference in recovery when comparing total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) to inhalational gas anesthesia in patients receiving rhinoplasty. [STUDY DESIGN] Retrospective review. [SETTING] Postoperati…

Mandibular condyle reconstruction with vascularized free flaps can re-establish form and function after resection. However, no reports have been published regarding the postoperative anatomic seating of these reconstructions. To use postop…

The ultrasonic bone aspirator (UBA) allows for precision and provides ease of use in multiple steps of cosmetic and functional rhinoplasties. Its use has previously been described; however, since the publication of many studies the UBA has …

Physician review websites are now commonly used by patients. However, in facial plastic surgery, the trends and content in these websites are not well studied. We examined online reviews for U.S. facial plastic surgeons, and compared commen…

[OBJECTIVE] To determine the frequency at which patients with osteocutaneous free flap reconstruction of the head and neck develop long-term complications and identify predisposing perioperative factors. [STUDY DESIGN] A prospectively main…

[OBJECTIVE] To describe the natural history of bone segment union in head and neck free flap procedures and detail the association of poor segment union with postoperative complications. [STUDY DESIGN] Case series with chart review. [SETT…

[BACKGROUND] Understanding factors impacting successful salvage of a compromised free flap. [METHODS] Multi-institutional review of free flap reconstructions for head and neck defects (n = 1764). [RESULTS] Free flap compromise rate: 9% (n…

[BACKGROUND] Nasal osteotomy is a commonly performed procedure during rhinoplasty for both functional and cosmetic reasons. Teaching and learning this procedure proves difficult due to the reliance on nuanced tactile feedback. For surgical …

[OBJECTIVE] Patients are increasingly seeking nonsurgical treatment for the aging face. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy and outcomes of a thermistor-controlled subdermal skin tightening device (ThermiTight) a…

The objective of the study was to evaluate the clinical safety of endoscopic browlift alone or in combination with blepharoplasty as a treatment for the aging face. This is a retrospective comparative study from 2007 to 2016 at a single ter…

The external ear is commonly involved in facial trauma. Injuries to the ear can range from simple lacerations to complete avulsions. We review the normal auricular anatomy and vascular supply, as well as the initial management of any auricu…

Acute auricular hematoma is common after blunt trauma to the side of the head. A network of vessels provides a rich blood supply to the ear, and the ear cartilage receives its nutrients from the overlying perichondrium. Prompt management of…

Parotid trauma can lead to both short and long-term complications such as bleeding, infection, facial nerve injury, sialocele, and salivary fistula, resulting in pain and disfigurement. Facial injuries inferior to a line extended from the t…
