[BACKGROUND] Breast cancer has the highest incidence among female malignancies, and surgical intervention remains a cornerstone of its management. However, destructive procedures such as traditional mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery c…

[BACKGROUND] Intraoral injection techniques have been reported in various countries, with their advantages well documented. Drawing upon existing literature on intraoral injections, we developed a novel intraoral submucosal zonal injection …

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), an inflammatory subtype of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), drives hepatic dysfunction and poses a significant health burden. Lipophagy dysfunction disrup…

Hypertrophic scarring is characterized by excessive dermal fibrosis and irregular collagen metabolism, mediated by fibroblasts derived from keloids. This condition typically arises from improper wound healing after deep burns, trauma, or su…

[BACKGROUND] Submental hematoma after genioplasty is rare but can be life-threatening, and current imaging data give limited patient-specific guidance for chin osteotomy design. [METHODS] We combined targeted cadaveric dissection of two pe…

Dorsocervical fat pad (DCFP) refers to an area of fat accumulation at the back of the neck. It not only affects aesthetic appearance but brings health problems. Anatomically, it is caused either by thickening of the deep adipose tissue or d…

[BACKGROUND] Liposuction surgery is often performed with patients either in a supine or prone position. The prone position can potentially increase the intracranial pressure, with the risk of adverse outcomes. Ultrasound can be used to meas…

[BACKGROUND] This study revisits previously described skin-reducing mastectomy and dermal flap-muscle pocket techniques for immediate breast reconstruction in large, drooping breasts. Compared to techniques previously described in the liter…

[BACKGROUND] Periorbital complications from hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are common due to the region's unique anatomy. Hyaluronidase is widely used for management, but dosing remains empirical with no standardized protocol. This study aime…

Aesthetic blepharoplasty has undergone a transformative shift from subtractive techniques to those emphasizing tissue preservation and augmentation. This article gives an overview on modern techniques on upper and lower eyelid blepharoplast…

The double-eyelid crease formation is primarily influenced by the attachment of the levator aponeurosis to the skin. The buried-suture method of double-eyelid blepharoplasty has gained popularity due to advantages like minimal scarring, fas…

[BACKGROUND] Lower blepharoplasty has shifted from fat resection to preservation by means of repositioning, yet severe fat herniation still requires selective excision. Traditional resection may compromise transposition. This study introduc…

[BACKGROUND] Psychological disorders play a crucial yet often overlooked role in medical aesthetic disputes. Patients with underlying psychological conditions may have unrealistic expectations, leading to dissatisfaction and legal conflicts…

[BACKGROUND] The emotional and psychological complexities experienced by patients who will undergo plastic surgery are profound. This study aims to explore the origins of preoperative emotional challenges and their associated risk factors a…

Secondary cleft lip nasal deformity presents a persistent challenge in reconstructive surgery, with fundamental differences existing between unilateral and bilateral presentations that dictate distinct management approaches. This systematic…

Breast reconstruction remains hindered by the limitations of conventional implant materials such as silicone, which exhibit hydrophobicity and poor tissue integration, often leading to complications, including capsular contracture. Here, we…

[BACKGROUND] Postburn axillary contracture is a common complication that leads to functional impairment and unsatisfactory aesthetic outcomes. The authors present their experience with axillary contracture reconstruction using preexpanded b…

Despite extensive efforts to restore through-and-through cheek defects caused by oral cavity malignancies, surgeons continue to explore optimal approaches to achieving satisfactory cosmetic and functional outcomes. In this prospective rando…

[BACKGROUND] The surgical complexity associated with the palatal roots of maxillary molars was considerably elevated. Previous studies on the relationships between maxillary molar roots and the maxillary sinus or cortical plates have focuse…

[BACKGROUND] Mucoepidermoid carcinoma originates from reserve cells present in ducts of salivary glands and is the most common malignancy of the salivary glands. It is commonly found in the parotid gland, followed by the palatal and buccal …

[OBJECTIVES] This study evaluates the efficacy of a new temporomandibular joint (TMJ) capsule suspension technique for stabilizing the TMJ after free fibular flap reconstruction of the mandibular condyle. [PATIENTS AND METHODS] Patients un…

The objective of this study was to describe the four types of Chimeric Medial Sural Artery Perforator Free Flap (CMSAPFF) in restoring the hemiglossectomy defect. This is a prospective study of patients who underwent hemiglossectomy reconst…

Endothelial cells play a critical role in the pathophysiology of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Although previous studies have shown that IRI can activate PANoptosis, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Our research investigates h…

[OBJECTIVES] This study evaluated surgical temperature, accuracy, and efficiency in endodontic microsurgery (EMS) using the sleeveless guided system. [MATERIALS AND METHODS] Sleeveless and sleeve guided systems were fabricated. Thermocoupl…

Spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (SDAVF) is a common spinal vascular malformation predominantly occurring in the thoracolumbar region, and craniocervical junction SDAVF (CCJ-SDAVF) is rare. Endovascular interventional embolization and sur…

[BACKGROUND] The traditional radial forearm free flap (TRFFF) combined with split-thickness skin grafting (STSG) for repairing oral defects presents unavoidable donor area complications, such as delayed healing and scar hyperplasia. This st…

[PURPOSE] Robotic microsurgery enhances the dexterity and stability of the surgeon to perform precise and delicate surgical procedures at microscopic level. Accurate needle pose estimation is critical for robotic micro-suturing, enabling op…

[OBJECTIVE] To retrospectively analyze the repair of seven cases of complicated pharyngocutaneous fistula (PCF) to provide a reference for the treatment of complicated PCF. [METHODS] We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of seven p…

Minimally invasive osteotomy and precise root-end resection are key factors in endodontic microsurgery (EMS), particularly in the mandibular molars. Autonomous robotic (ATR) systems facilitate accurate presurgical planning and real-time rob…
