[BACKGROUND] While radiotherapy (RT) and chemotherapy (CT) significantly improve breast cancer outcomes, they may affect breast reconstruction by causing vascular damage and delayed wound healing. This retrospective study evaluates how preo…

: The DIEP flap is among the preferred techniques in autologous breast reconstruction due to better long-term outcomes, including higher satisfaction and more natural breast shape compared to implant-based breast reconstruction. With the ri…

[BACKGROUND] The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is now considered the gold standard for autologous breast reconstructions (BRs). Previous abdominal surgery (PAS) is considered to be a potential contraindication to abdominal…

[BACKGROUND] The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is considered the gold standard for autologous breast reconstruction. Many patients have had previous abdominal surgery (PAS), which poses a challenge in flap harvesting and m…

[BACKGROUND] Symptomatic macromastia is a debilitating condition that affects millions of women worldwide. Although reduction mammoplasty is the gold standard treatment, the association between estrogen levels and wound healing has been est…

[BACKGROUND] Recalcitrant bone nonunion and osseous defect treatment is challenging and often requires vascularized bone transfer. The medial femoral condyle flap has become an increasingly popular option for reconstruction. The study aims …

[BACKGROUND] The lateral arm free flap (LA-FF) has become an increasingly popular choice in the reconstruction of soft tissue defect in many anatomical regions. However, there is a paucity of literature regarding its safety and efficacy. Th…

[BACKGROUND] Previous studies have shown a higher complication rate in bilateral (BL) compared to unilateral (UL) deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstructions. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to offe…

[BACKGROUND] Breast-conserving surgery is the standard of care for early-stage breast cancer but can often result in unsatisfactory cosmetic outcomes. Oncoplastic surgery aims to address these issues by combining local excision with plastic…

[BACKGROUND/AIM] Breast-conserving surgery is the preferred treatment for early-stage breast cancer but can often result in unsatisfactory cosmetic outcomes. Oncoplastic surgery aims to improve both oncologic and aesthetic outcomes by combi…

[BACKGROUND] The knee region represents a challenging area of soft tissue reconstruction. Specifically, in the context of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or following high-energy trauma with fractures and hardware fixation, soft tissue defect…

Abdominoplasty and its different approaches have been widely described to improve abdominal wall contour. However, the role of reverse abdominoplasty, a less commonly performed technique, and its indications are not fully understood. Recent…

[OBJECTIVE] Opioid-based analgesia is often used in the management of postoperative pain in arthroplasty cases. This article analyses the safety of single-shot peripheral nerve block (PNB) and potential analgesic benefits in patients underg…

(1) Background: The superior gluteal artery perforator (SGAP) flap is a prominent technique for autologous breast reconstruction. Unlike other commonly used techniques, current literature on the safety and efficacy of the SGAP flap is heter…

[BACKGROUND] In breast reduction, traditionally the inferior pedicle (IFP) technique is considered the most performed by plastic surgeons. A growing interest for the superomedial pedicle (SMP) mammoplasty technique has been documented in li…

[BACKGROUND] Among breast reduction mammoplasty, the inferior pedicle-based (IFP) technique is considered the most performed by plastic surgeons. A growing interest for the supero-medial based pedicle (SMP) mammoplasty technique has been do…
