Pathways to Leadership in Plastic Surgery: A Cross-sectional Study.
[BACKGROUND] There are many pathways to leadership, but few historically were designed with women in mind. This study aimed to report on common trends, characteristics, pathways, and achievements among successful women plastic surgery leade…

The Future of Microsurgery: Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation and Engineering Vascularized Tissue.
[BACKGROUND] Microsurgical techniques have revolutionized the field of reconstructive surgery and are the mainstay for complex soft tissue reconstruction. However, their limitations have promoted the development of viable alternatives. This…

Automated Decellularization of the Rodent Epigastric Free Flap: A Comparison of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Based Protocols.
[BACKGROUND] Free tissue transfer to cover complex wounds with exposed critical structures results in donor-site morbidity. Perfusion decellularization and recellularization of vascularized composite tissues is an active area of research t…

Improved Estimation of Ultrasound Thermal Strain Using Pulse Inversion Harmonic Imaging.
Thermal (temporal) strain imaging (TSI) is being developed to detect the lipid-rich core of atherosclerotic plaques and presence of fatty liver disease. However, the effects of ultrasonic clutter on TSI have not been considered. In this stu…

The Architecture of Fat Grafting: What Lies beneath the Surface.
[BACKGROUND] Fat grafting is a powerful procedure limited by unpredictable volume loss. Grafted tissue survives via plasmatic imbibition until neovascularization occurs; therefore, fat that is deposited more than 0.2 cm from capillaries wil…
-
Healing of grafted adipose tissue: current clinical applications of adipose-derived stem cells for breast and face reconstruction.
Since their isolation and characterization nearly a decade ago, adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) have become one of the most popular adult stem cell populations for soft tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. Compared w…

Particle size in fat graft retention: A review on the impact of harvesting technique in lipofilling surgical outcomes.
Fat grafting popularity continues to rise among plastic surgeons. As a soft tissue filler, adipose tissue had many desirable attributes: it is easy to obtain, autologous, and may reintegrate into recipient sites. However, fat grafting is cl…
-
Comparison of harvest and processing techniques for fat grafting and adipose stem cell isolation.
[BACKGROUND] Variability in harvest and processing technique may impact the success of fat grafting. This study compared properties of fat grafts produced by differing methods and assessed volume retention of the grafted tissue in a nude mo…
-
Prevalence of endogenous CD34+ adipose stem cells predicts human fat graft retention in a xenograft model.
[BACKGROUND] Fat grafting is a promising technique for soft-tissue augmentation, although graft retention is highly unpredictable and factors that affect graft survival have not been well defined. Because of their capacity for differentiati…
-
Adipogenic potential of adipose stem cell subpopulations.
[BACKGROUND] Adipose stem cells represent a heterogenous population. Understanding the functional characteristics of subpopulations will be useful in developing adipose stem cell-based therapies for regenerative medicine applications. The a…

Role of gender and anatomical region on induction of osteogenic differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells.
Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) display multilineage plasticity and, under appropriate conditions, can mineralize their extracellular matrix and undergo osteogenesis. The aims of this study are to examine in vitro osteogenic differentiati…
