Tissue expander-based breast reconstruction is widely used following mastectomy due to its relative technical simplicity, minimal additional anesthesia, and reversibility. However, complications such as tissue necrosis, impaired vascularity…

The gluteal region has become a rising area of interest in plastic surgery in recent years, as reflected in body contouring surgery trends. In this study, the authors explain what the arrow effect consists of and how to highlight it during …

The manuscript aims to clarify the origins of Western rhinosurgery through the ancient texts of the greatest physicians of the past, up to the Byzantine Era, focusing on the "exchange of knowledge" between peoples. This excursus is carried …

In this paper, we describe our experience in treating migraine headache localized in the occipital area. Using our minimally-invasive approach, from June 2011 till January 2022, we have performed MH decompression surgery over 232 patients w…

[UNLABELLED] Prominent ears are a common congenital deformity of the head and neck. Correcting concha hypertrophy is an important step in otoplasty. Despite the risk of postoperative deformity due to the sharp edges created by excision, rem…

[BACKGROUND] Massive weight loss (MWL) has a positive impact on the comorbidities associated with obesity but leaves patients with ongoing body issues due to skin excess. Almost all patients present some degree of breast ptosis and breast v…

The analysis of the written sources allowed to follow the gradual development of every new technique in the field of rhinoplasty but also to understand the value of this surgery in those ancient times, highlighting a deep connection between…

[INTRODUCTION] While many authors have reported their experience in immediate prepectoral breast reconstruction (BR), implant pocket conversion from a submuscular to a prepectoral plane is less well described. The aim of this study is to pr…

[UNLABELLED] Implant-based breast reconstruction (IBR) is currently the most frequently performed reconstructive technique post mastectomy. Even though submuscular IBR continues to be the most commonly used technique, mastectomy technique o…

[UNLABELLED] Literature from the last decade has shown a correlation between resection of the occipital muscles and vessels and relief from migraine and tension-type headaches. [METHODS] The aim of this article was to describe the authors'…

The umbilicus is a unique physiologic scar of human life resulting from the healing process of the cut umbilical cord at birth. Its absence leads to an unnatural abdominal appearance, and an abnormally shaped or misplaced umbilicus may draw…

[BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE WORK] Adipose tissue is an organ of energy storage, an endocrine organ, a soft tissue filler and a cosmetically unnecessary tissue discarded by liposuction. Liposuction was designed to correct unaesthetic deposits …

[BACKGROUND AND AIM] The aim of breast reduction is to reduce excessive breast volume, ensuring an adequate vascular supply and sensitivity of the nipple-areola complex, as well as to produce an aesthetically pleasing final shape. The autho…

[INTRODUCTION] Adipose grafting has undergone significant changes over time. Many different techniques have been followed by trying to improve the quality of the lipoaspirate and the survival of the fat graft after implantation. [MATERIAL …

Current literature does not offer a standardized method to isolate adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) for clinical applications and hence clinical studies using ASCs often show inconsistent results. Most of these studies borrow laboratory or…

Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that show definitive stem cell characteristics such as plastic adherence in culture, ability to maintain multipotency upon in vitro expansion, and self-renewal …

Breast cancer is the most common female cancer in Western populations, affecting 12.5% of women, with 1.38 million patients per year. Breast-conserving surgery followed by postoperative radiotherapy replaced the radical and modified-radical…

[BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE WORK] Excessive body weight represents a huge problem affecting a wide part of world population, causing significant physical and psychological consequences. To solve their obesity-related problems, patients shoul…

[INTRODUCTION] Nowadays, liposuction is the most frequently performed aesthetic surgery procedure in Western Countries. This technique has had rapid development since the 1970s, when it was experimented for the first time by A. and G. Fisch…

[OBJECTIVE] To systematically review the procedure, applications, and outcomes of autologous fat grafting, a promising technique with various clinical applications. [PATIENTS AND METHODS] Literature review of publications concerning autolo…

[BACKGROUND] Limitations of hair restoration procedures are the amount of hairs available and the invasiveness of follicular harvesting. [OBJECTIVE] The aim of this study was to compare conventional human micrografts and plucked hair folli…

White adipose tissue is the most abundant and accessible source of stem cells in the adult human body. In this paper, we present a standardised and safe method of isolating and maximizing the number of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) from…

[INTRODUCTION] Adipose tissue represents an abundant and accessible source of adult stem cells that can differentiate into cells and tissues of mesodermal origin, including osteogenic cells. [METHODS] This paper describes the procedure to …

[UNLABELLED] Over the years, different kinds of hair transplantation have been compared in an attempt to overcome male pattern alopecia and, at the same time, maximize both the survival and growth rate of grafted hair. In this study, we hav…

Abdominoplasty is one of the most popular body-contouring procedures. It is associated with a significant number of complications: the most common ones are seroma, hematoma, infection, wound-healing problems, and skin flap necrosis. From Ja…

The fast increase in obesity has been followed by the growth in the demand for plastic surgery in formerly obese patients. The weight loss is accompanied by new dysfunctions and disorders of the outline of the body that affects the quality …

[AIM] Adipose tissue represent an alternative source of multipotent stem cells with characteristics similar to bone marrowderived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), easier to isolate and effective in wound healing enhancement. [MATERIAL OF ST…

In the last decade a number of environments for Computer Supported Plastic Surgery have been presented. Nevertheless, an overall approach for training and intraoperative support is still missing or has not been widely exploited yet. We deve…

[BACKGROUND] When isolating hair grafts in hair transplantation procedures, it is generally recommended to preserve the grafts at a low temperature (1 degrees C- 4 degrees C) in order to enhance the survival rate of the grafted hairs. This …

The aim of this study was to evaluate, in an in vitro model, the survival and growth rates of transversely sectioned human hair follicles to assess experimentally the soundness of this approach as a future possible method for "duplicating" …
