Comparison of hypofractionation and conventional fractionation in postmastectomy radiotherapy after immediate breast reconstruction: A systematic review and meta-analysis of complications.
[BACKGROUND] The optimal radiotherapy regimen following mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction remains under active investigation. In particular, the safety of moderate hypofractionation (HF) compared to conventional fractionation (…

Ocular Surface Metrics in Blepharospasm Patients After Treatment With Botulinum Toxin Injections.
[PURPOSE] The purpose of this study was to assess blepharospasm patients regarding the effect of botulinum toxin in ocular surface parameters. [METHODS] A prospective study was performed in blepharospasm patients treated with onabotulinumt…

Blinking Parameters Do Not Normalize After Botulinum Toxin Therapy in Blepharospasm and Hemifacial Spasm Patients.
[BACKGROUND] Little is known regarding changes induced by botulinum toxin injections on blinking parameters in blepharospasm (BSP) and hemifacial spasm (HFS) patients. The purpose of this study was to investigate objective changes induced b…

Combined treatment using cross-leg free flap and the Masquelet technique: a report of two cases.
We introduce a treatment that combines the cross-leg free flap with the Masquelet technique and describe two cases using this method for bone and soft tissue reconstruction. Both patients were successfully treated and ambulatory. This novel…

Simple and Easily Interpretable Flap Monitoring Method Using a Commercial Pulse Oximeter and a Widely Used Bedside Patient Monitor.
Background Various methods for monitoring after free flap surgery have been reported in the literature. Among them, pulse oximetry shows a sensitive reaction to vascular issues, and it is easy to interpret visually. However, previous repor…

Analysis of blink activity and anomalous eyelid movements in patients with hemifacial spasm.
To assess spontaneous blinking and anomalous eyelid movements in patients with hemifacial spasm with an emphasis on interocular differences. Spontaneous eyelid movements were registered bilaterally for 3 min using a high-speed video camera …

Evaluation of botulinum toxin effects in hemifacial spasm patients: correlation between clinical rating scales and high-speed video system measurements.
The purpose of this study was to compare the scores of two clinical rating scales and high-speed video system measurements obtained during spontaneous eyelid movements in hemifacial spasm (HFS) patients before and after treatment. Patients …

An objective tool to measure the effect of botulinum toxin in blepharospasm and hemifacial spasm.
[BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE] It is challenging to assess patients with blepharospasm (BSP) and hemifacial spasm (HFS) as these patients exhibit a wide range of amplitudes of eyelid movements. In order to quantify these movements, a mathematical…

Orbicularis Oculi Morphological Alterations in Affected and Nonaffected Sides in Hemifacial Spasm.
[BACKGROUND] Although the nonaffected side appears to be clinically normal in hemifacial spasm (HFS), it is not known whether this side can be considered normal regarding histopathological findings. The purpose of this study was to objectiv…

Possible Influence of Upper Blepharoplasty on Intraocular Pressure.
[PURPOSE] There is anecdotal evidence that upper blepharoplasty might lead to raised intraocular pressure (IOP). If this association is confirmed, then patients with glaucoma and glaucoma suspects could be at risk if they underwent this pro…

Ultrasonography-guided Cannula Method for Hyaluronic Acid Filler Injection with Evaluation using Laser Speckle Flowgraphy.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is present in the connective tissues of the skin and decreases with age. HA fillers are popular as facial rejuvenation treatments. They are generally considered safe; however, complications, such as cutaneous necrosis a…

Infrabrow Skin Excision Associated With Upper Blepharoplasty to Address Significant Dermatochalasis With Lateral Hooding in Select Asian Patients.
[PURPOSE] In Asian patients, lateral hooding in the aging upper eyelid is prominent and frequently seen. Removal of the redundant skin of this region during classic blepharoplasty tends to produce a resultant prolonged scar. Furthermore, as…

Differences in Corneal Parameters Between Affected and Normal Contralateral Eyes in Patients With Hemifacial Spasm Treated With Botulinum Toxin-A: Outcomes During One Complete Treatment Cycle.
[PURPOSE] To investigate possible temporary differences in corneal topographic parameters between affected and normal eyes in patients with hemifacial spasm (HFS) treated with botulinum toxin-A (BTX-A), over the course of 1 treatment cycle.…

Impact of botulinum toxin-A on corneal curvature assessed with Scheimpflug and Placido systems.
[PURPOSE] To evaluate the effect of eyelid spasm treatment with botulinum toxin-A (BTX-A) on corneal curvature assessed with Scheimpflug (Pentacam) and Placido (Atlas) systems. [SETTING] Federal University of São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil. …

Influence of involuntary eyelid spasms on corneal topographic and eyelid morphometric changes in patients with hemifacial spasm.
[BACKGROUND/AIMS] In patients with hemifacial spasm (HFS), treatment relieves eyelid spasms on the affected side, thus changes in corneal topography and eyelid morphometry may be observed after treatment. We aimed to evaluate these paramete…
