Global plastic surgeons images depicted in motion pictures.

Motion pictures are made to entertain and enlighten people, but they are viewed differently by different people. What one considers to be a tearjerker may induce giggles in another. We have gained added interest in this because our professional pictures contain plastic surgery in their venue.

Lateral orbital rim; open or closed in mammals.

We tried to determine the relationship between the presence of the lateral orbital rim and shape of the skull in certain mammals. From the literature, 15 mammals with the orbit closed at the back by a bony bar (closed group) and 18 mammals with the orbit closed at the back without a bony bar (open group) were selected. Calculation of interorbital-zygomatic breadth ratio (IZR, interorbital breadth/zygomatic breadth) and nasal-skull ratio (NSR, length of nasals/greatest length of skull) was performed.

Analysis of migrated hydrogel used for breast augmentation revealed prolamin (a cereal seed storage protein).

Background: We report on a case of leakage and migration to the upper abdomen of an unknown injected material that was used for breast augmentation. It was revealed to be prolamin by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis and pyrolysis gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (PY-GC/MS).

Methods: A 35-year-old woman who had undergone mammary augmentation by transaxillary injection 8 years previously presented with a decreased size of her left breast and a palpable mass in the left upper quadrant (LUQ).
