The Lateral Antebrachial Neurocutaneous Flap: Case Series.

Background: The neurocutaneous flap was developed based on the understanding that every superficial cutaneous nerve includes vessels, also known as vasa nervorum or paraneural vessels, which run around and inside the nerves and deliver blood to the skin above. A cutaneous perforator connected to paraneural vessels that vascularize the skin and nerves is referred to as a neurocutaneous perforator. The lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve (LACN), the most dependable blood supply from the primary underlying veins of the neurocutaneous flap, is the subject of this study.

Facelift Surgery after Permanent Filler: Outcomes after Removal of Permanent Filler under Local Anesthesia.

Unlabelled: Permanent fillers were previously used to fix wrinkles associated with aging as they were considered a reasonable choice for facial rejuvenation. However, the subsequent removal of permanent fillers is of great concern to surgeons before performing a facelift surgery. Many studies have evaluated the outcomes of facelift surgery; however, we sought to evaluate the outcomes of facelift surgery which required removal of fillers beforehand.

Gluteal Region Reshaping of Massive Weight Loss Patients-A Decision-Making Strategy.

 Massive weight loss (MWL) is a very common presentation that you may face as a plastic surgeon. Each patient has his own individual criteria, so, you should work according to a well-organized plan, especially when such cases have concerns about their gluteal area contour that were neglected before by many surgeons. A decision-making strategy was used to give a personalized treatment for targeting gluteal region reshaping of MWL patients.

Outcome comparison between thoracodorsal artery perforator flap and muscle-sparing latissimus dorsi flap in axillary reconstruction after hidradenitis suppurativa excision.

Background: Thoracodorsal artery perforator (TDAP) flap and muscle-sparing latissimus dorsi (MSLD) flap have been frequently used for axillary coverage after hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) excision. However, none showed superiority to others. This study compared both flaps to define the ideal option, highlighting flap outcomes and functional and aesthetic results.

True and Average Internal Nasal Valve Area in Septorhinoplasty: Radiological and Clinical Outcomes.

The internal nasal valve provides most of the upper airway resistance; therefore, many surgical techniques have been developed to reconstruct and widen this sensitive area of the nasal airway. Twenty patients participated in this study to compare the effects of 2 techniques (spreader grafts and modified spreader flap) on the true valve area and the average valve area after rhinoplasty according to standard axial computed tomography on admission and 6 months following the surgery. The mean follow-up time was 10.

Surgically-assisted abdominal wall blocks for analgesia after abdominoplasty: A prospective randomized trial.

Background: Abdominoplasty is a common aesthetic procedure. The transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB) and rectus sheath block (RSB) have proven efficacy as analgesic modality for abdominal surgeries. This study demonstrates post-abdominoplasty analgesic duration consequent to the three surgically infiltrated local anesthetic techniques: bilateral TAPB, bilateral RSB, and subcutaneous infiltration (SCI) of 0.
