[BACKGROUND] One-stage direct-to-implant (DTI) breast reconstruction is increasingly popular with the use of prepectoral reconstruction leading to increased demand for structural scaffolds. It is vital to determine if differences in safety …

[INTRODUCTION] Head and neck oncologic resections with microvascular reconstruction are lengthy and complex procedures with inefficiencies in the operating room (OR) associated with increased complications and higher costs. Multidisciplinar…

[BACKGROUND] This study demonstrates the role of the deltoid branch artery as a donor vessel for microvascular reconstruction in various free flaps in the vessel-depleted neck. [METHODS] This is a cohort study that reports our experience w…

[OBJECTIVE] To examine if perioperative blood transfusion affects overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) in head and neck cancer patients who undergo free tissue reconstruction. [DESIGN] Retrospective cohort study. [METH…

[OBJECTIVES] Microvascular free tissue transfer is routinely used for reconstructing midface defects in patients with malignancy, however, studies regarding reconstructive outcomes in invasive fungal sinusitis (IFS) are lacking. We aim to d…

[OBJECTIVE] Malnutrition is an important risk factor for patient surgical outcomes. This is especially true for head and neck cancer (HNC) patients receiving a total laryngectomy with free flap reconstruction (TLwFFR). Preoperative prealbum…

[BACKGROUND] Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is an appealing treatment for older patients, as it is minimally invasive but highly efficacious similar to surgical myotomy. However, there is a lack of systematic studies analyzing POEM outco…

[CONCLUSION] This study developed an easy way to induce otitis media in an animal model and find the relation between tensor veli palatini muscle (TVP) and levetor veli palatini [corrected] muscle (LVP) in the opening and closing of the pha…
