Cosmetic Open Rhinoplasty in Acute Nasal Bone Fracture With Pre-Existing Deformity.

The simultaneous reduction of nasal bone fracture and cosmetic rhinoplasty is a challenging procedure, because of fracture severity and skeletal instability. Our aim was to investigate the surgical strategy and outcomes of cosmetic rhinoplasty according to the pre-existing nasal deformity when performing simultaneous reduction of nasal bone fracture and cosmetic rhinoplasty. In total, 71 patients who underwent cosmetic rhinoplasty were included.

Breast Reconstruction after Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma Treatment: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is a T-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that occurs in patients with at least one prior textured breast implant. BIA-ALCL has a relatively good prognosis when treated promptly. However, data on the methods and timing of the reconstruction process are lacking.

Long-Term Ultrasonographic and Histologic Changes in Acellular Dermal Matrix in Implant-Based Breast Reconstructions.

Background: Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) is composed of extracellular matrix (ECM) and is widely used in implant-based breast reconstructions. However, long-term changes in the ADM around implants have not been established. This study aimed to investigate long-term changes in the ADM covering breast implants using serial ultrasound and histologic evaluations.

Prevention of Abdominal Bulging Using Onlay Dermal Autografts from Discarded Zone IV TRAM Flap Tissue.

While the transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap is a popular option for abdominal-based breast reconstruction, abdominal wall morbidities such as bulging or hernia remain a concern. Here, we introduced a surgical technique for reinforcing the abdominal wall using an onlay autograft obtained from discarded zone IV tissue following a primary closure. We compared abdominal wall morbidities between patients receiving an onlay graft and those receiving primary closure only.

Abnormal Ultrasonographic Findings of Acellular Dermal Matrix in Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction: Correlations with Histopathology.

Background: Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) in implant-based breast reconstruction can show various ultrasound (US) findings. However, there are limited reports on the US features of the ADM. The aims of this study were to evaluate US findings of the ADM in implant-based breast reconstruction and correlate them with histopathological findings.

Concurrent chemoradiotherapy for elderly patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer.

Purpose: Combined chemoradiotherapy is standard management for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC), but standard treatment for elderly patients with LA-NSCLC has not been confirmed yet. We evaluated the feasibility and efficacy of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for elderly patients with LA-NSCLC.

Materials And Methods: Among patients older than 65 years with LA-NSCLC, 36 patients, who underwent CCRT were retrospectively analyzed.
