Thrombotic Consequences of COVID-19 Infection on Microsurgical Reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Evidence has shown increased morbidity and mortality for patients with COVID-19 infection within 7 weeks of surgery. However, no studies have specifically investigated the effects of COVID-19 in microsurgical outcomes. This stu…

Evidence based recommendations for perioperative vasopressor use and fluid resuscitation in microsurgery.
Blood pressure regulation is critical in patients undergoing microsurgical free tissue transfer; however, guidelines for addressing and preventing perioperative hypotension remain highly debated, with two current thought paradigms: (1) intr…

Healing Exposed Calvarial Hardware Using Negative-Pressure Wound Therapy and Vashe Wound Solution: Case Report.
[OBJECTIVE] The management of cranioplasty infections has historically been explantation followed by delayed reimplantation/reconstruction. This treatment algorithm necessitates surgery, tissue expansion, and prolonged disfigurement. In thi…

COVID-19 Associated Micro-Anastomotic Thrombosis After Abdominal Free Tissue Transfer: A Case Report and Literature Review.
The hypercoagulable state of COVID-19 infection presents a challenge to microsurgeons. While the American Society of Anesthesiologists recommends deferring surgery for 4-10 weeks for COVID-19-infected patients, little else is known regardin…

The Incidence of Retained Objects in Intraoperative X-rays for Missing Counts in Plastic Surgery: We Should Do Better.
[BACKGROUND] In the event of incorrect surgical counts, obtaining X-rays to rule out retained surgical items (RSI) is standard practice. However, these safeguards also carry risk. This study investigates the actual incidence of RSI in plast…

Salvage of Nipple-Areolar Complex Ischemia With Dimethyl Sulfoxide: A Case Series.
[BACKGROUND] Nipple-areolar complex (NAC) necrosis is a known risk of breast surgery, particularly mastectomy. Disruption of the underlying blood supply to the NAC can lead to ischemia and subsequent necrosis. Nitroglycerin paste is current…

Closed Incision Negative Pressure Therapy in Oncoplastic Surgery Prevents Delays to Adjuvant Therapy.
[UNLABELLED] Breast reductions, including oncoplastic breast surgery (OBS), have high postoperative wound healing complication (WHC) rates, ranging from 17% to 63%, thus posing a potential delay in the onset of adjuvant therapy. Incision ma…

Characteristics and Treatment of Patients Diagnosed With Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia After Cryolipolysis: A Case Series and Scoping Review.
[BACKGROUND] Paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (PAH), a rare side effect of CoolSculpting (cryolipolysis), is characterized by fatty enlargement of the treatment area occurring months after the procedure. [OBJECTIVES] The purpose of this stu…
