Management of adult patients with buttock and perineal burns: The Ross Tilley Burn Centre experience.

Background: Perineal and buttock burns are challenging wounds to heal for several reasons because of the contamination risk and shear stress that is always present. Because of the nature of the wound bed, pathogens can have ready access to create systemic infections and complications. Prolonged healing times also delay the recovery for patients and add to their discomfort and psychological stress from the injury.

The use of lipofilling to treat congenital hypoplastic breast anomalies: preliminary experiences.

Background: Treatment options for congenital hypoplastic breast anomalies are often open, including radial scoring, parenchymal flaps, and insertion of expanders and implants. Drawbacks of open techniques involve scarring, the use of drains, and inpatient stays. The use of lipofilling to treat breast deformities is increasing, as more research is completed in this area.

Maxillonasal osteochondral complex repair in maxillonasal dysplasia.

Surgical treatment of maxillonasal dysplasia or Binder syndrome is a challenge for surgeons. Its aim is to replace or substitute the missing or malformed anatomic structures.
