Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the effectiveness of the pectoralis muscle sling in providing long-term support for breast parenchyma after breast reduction surgery, particularly its impact on the bottoming-out effect.
- A total of 21 female patients underwent a vertical breast reduction, with half receiving the muscle sling and the other half serving as a control group without it, followed by extensive radiological evaluations over 10 years.
- Findings showed that patients with the muscle sling experienced significantly less migration of the breast flaps over time, indicating that the sling offers better and more durable support for maintaining flap position.

It usually protrudes through the mouth, leading to an appreciable risk of obstruction of the upper airway and death soon after birth. We report two cases of unusual presentations that illustrated some uncommon and similar characteristics.

- The study assessed how chronic smoking and aging affect blood flow in the facial arteries of women using Doppler ultrasound.
- It involved 40 healthy women divided into three groups: young nonsmokers, older nonsmokers, and older smokers, measuring various blood flow parameters.
- Results indicated that smoking led to significant changes in blood flow metrics (end-diastolic velocity, resistivity, and pulsatility index), while aging did not show a significant impact.
