Clavicle height asymmetry: A common problem for planning reduction mammoplasties - A correlational study.

The distance between the mid-clavicle and nipple (MCN) is crucial in planning reduction mammoplasties. MCN has been shown to be superior in achieving nipple-areola complex symmetry. However, there is great variability in clavicle anatomy.

Neo-Omphaloplasty within a Vertical Scar: The Double Trapezium Flap Technique.

Various techniques for neo-omphaloplasty (or umbilicoplasty/umbiliconeoplasty) have been established in recent decades. However, when the omphaloplasty must be integrated into a vertical scar, most of these techniques are unsuitable. We established a technique comprising two "cross-border" trapezium flaps that come together in a key-lock fashion to be applicable for umbilical reconstruction in vertical scars.

How Reliable Is Breast Volume Assessment When the Patient Is Lying Flat?-Volumetric Assessment of Breast Volume Using a Vectra H2 Handheld Device in Different Positions.

(1) : Three-dimensional (3D) volumetric assessment is receiving increased recognition in breast surgery. It is commonly used for preoperative planning and postoperative control with the patient standing in an upright position. Recently, intraoperative use was evaluated with patients in the supine position.

Evaluation of Intraoperative Volumetric Assessment of Breast Volume Using 3D Handheld Stereo Photogrammetric Device.

Methods for assessing three-dimensional (3D) breast volume are becoming increasingly popular in breast surgery. However, the precision of intraoperative volumetric assessment is still unclear. Until now, only non-validated scanning systems have been used for intraoperative volumetric analyses.
