Methods: Publications on facial rejuvenation research were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection database.

A Bibliometric and Visualization Analysis on the Research of Fat Grafting from 1945 to 2021.

Background: It is very important to generate a comprehensive assessment of the fat grafting field due to the rapid growth of scientific literature. The current study aimed to use bibliometric analysis to evaluate fat grafting research qualitatively and quantitatively and determine the research hotspots and trends in this field.

Methods: Publications on fat grafting research were extracted from the Web of Science core collection database.

Trends in Breast Augmentation Research: A Bibliometric Analysis.

Background: Breast augmentation is one of the most demanded procedures in plastic surgery and one of the most commonly performed by plastic surgeons. However, a bibliometric analysis of breast augmentation has not been published in recent years. The current study aimed to use a bibliometric analysis to conduct a qualitative and quantitative evaluation of breast augmentation research and provide the research trends and hotspots in this field.

Update on Rhinoplasty Research Trends: A Bibliometric Analysis.

Background: Rhinoplasty is one of the most commonly performed aesthetic surgical procedures. The current study aimed to use bibliometric analysis to qualitatively and quantitatively evaluate rhinoplasty research and determine the research trends and hotspots in this field.

Methods: Publications on rhinoplasty research were extracted from the web of science core collection database.

Risk Factors for Urethrocutaneous Fistula Repair After Hypospadias Surgery: A Retrospective Study.

Objectives: We review our experience in urethrocutaneous fistula (UCF) repair after hypospadias surgery to investigate the risk factors for unsuccessful outcome.

Methods: Two hundred eleven patients had undergone UCF repair in our department from January 2005 to December 2015. This study included 185 patients who were followed up for more than 6 months.

Pre-Expanded Submental Island Flap for Resurfacing Middle and Lower Facial Defect.

Resurfacing large facial defect is a continuing challenge for plastic surgeons. Skin graft or free flap is hard to obtain satisfactory results or is beyond the skill of most surgeons. The authors performed 13 expended submental island flaps to resurface middle and lower facial defects and achieved satisfactory results.

[Which vessel, the artery or the vein is more important in vascular supercharge: an investigation of vascular changes on rat abdominal supercharging flap models].

Objective: The study was to reveal the vascular changes in three different supercharging flap models. From this study, we want to investigate which vessel, the artery or the vein is more important in elongating perforator flap survival and why.

Methods: Twelve rats were divided into three experimental groups.

[Applied anatomy of cervico-acromial crossing skin flap].

Objective: To investigate the applied anatomy of the blood supply of the cervicoacromial crossing flap and its feasibility in clinical application.

Methods: 5 fresh adult and 10 forman fixed adult cadaver specimens were used. The arteries, veins, cutaneous arteries, subdermal vascular network, and vascular network of the superficial layer of deep fascia in the cervico-acromial area were observed and studied under the microscope.

Infraorbital and zygomatic reconstruction using pre-expanded rotation flap based on the orbicularis oculi muscle.

Infraorbital and zygomatic reconstruction procedures pose challenges to plastic surgeons because of the close location of the operation to the eyes and nose. Failed flap design can lead to distortion of the adjacent organs and tissue, particularly for larger defects. Flaps based on the orbicularis oculi muscle (OOM) can be easily rotated from the lateral or temporal region to cover the infraorbital and zygomatic area.

[Penile augmentation and elongation using autologous dermal-fat strip grafting].

Objective: To investigate the effect of autologous dermal-fat strip grafting in penile augmentation and elongation.

Methods: From May 2004 to December 2010, 24 patients underwent penile enhancement with free dermal-fat strip grafting. Through suprapubic incision, the superior suspensory ligament and part deep suspensory ligament are cutted off to lengthen the penis.

[Anatomy correction of penile epispadias].

Objective: To investigate the pathological characters and anatomic correction of penile epispadias.

Methods: The urethra was formed by local urethra plate mucosa flaps. The contracture on dorsum of penis was released by cutting off the superficial suspensory ligament to reposition the penile and urethral sponge.

[Tubed oral mucosa for staged treatment of congenital hypospadias in infancy].

Objective: To discuss the treatment of congenital hypospadias in infancy.

Methods: After correction of chordee, the tubed oral mucosa was used to prefabricate urethra in penis as free graft. The urethral anastomosis was performed at the second stage.

[Application of temporal-zygomatic expanded flaps pedicled with orbicularis oculi muscle for sub-orbital defects].

Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effect of temporal-zygomatic expanded flaps pedicled with orbicularis oculi muscle (00M) for sub-orbital defects.

Methods: 16 cases with sub-orbital defects were treated. The expanders were implanted at temporal-zygomatic region at the first stage.

[Clinical application of expanded submental island flap in facial soft tissue defect].

Objective: To investigate the application of the expanded submental island flap in facial soft tissue defect.

Method: 12 patients with facial soft tissue defects were treated with the expanded submental island flaps during September 2004 to September 2008. At the first stage, soft tissue expander was implanted in the neck.

[Application of tissue granule of oral mucous in plastic surgery].

Objective: To study the application of tissue granule of oral mucous in plastic surgery.

Methods: Tissue granule of oral mucous was placed on glutin sponge and they were used for urethral (12 cases) and vaginal (14 cases) reconstruction in 26 cases.

Results: Satisfactory results were achieved in 24 cases.
