Female cosmetic genital surgery is rapidly gaining popularity. Patient demand is increasing, and female cosmetic genital surgery is becoming a subspecialty of plastic surgery. Two predominant techniques exist in labia minora reduction: edge trim and wedge resection. Dr. Hamori prefers the wedge resection for most clinical situations. This video vignette clearly describes aesthetic analysis, marking, and technical execution for an extended wedge procedure. Patient safety and the management of patient expectations are emphasized.

Single-Port Three-Dimensional Endoscopic-Assisted Axillary Lymph Node Dissection (S-P 3D E-ALND): Surgical Technique and Preliminary Results.
Breast J
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Division of General Surgery, Changhua Christian Hospital, Changhua, Taiwan.
Article Synopsis
- Endoscopic-assisted breast surgery (EABS) offers better cosmetic results for breast cancer patients, but traditional axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) requires larger incisions and more retraction.
- The proposed single-port three-dimensional endoscopic-assisted ALND (S-P 3D E-ALND) uses a minimally invasive technique with high success rates and improved visualization, analyzed from a study of 11 patients.
- Preliminary results show 100% success without open surgery conversion, short operative times, minimal blood loss, and no significant complications over a median follow-up of 7 months, suggesting that S-P 3D E-ALND is a viable alternative for ALND.
Synthesis of Zinc Oxide-Doped Carbon Dots for Treatment of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.
Int J Nanomedicine
January 2025
Key Laboratory of Medical Cell Biology, Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University, Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, People's Republic of China.
Introduction: The anti-cancer properties of zinc oxide-doped carbon dots (CDs/ZnO) in inhibiting triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) progression merit more investigation.
Methods: With citric acid as the carbon source, urea applied as the nitrogen source, and zinc oxide (ZnO) used as a reactive dopant, CDs/ZnO were synthesized by microwave heating in the current study, followed by the characterization and biocompatibility assessments. Subsequently, the anti-cancer capabilities of CDs/ZnO against TNBC progression were evaluated by various biochemical and molecular techniques, including viability, proliferation, migration, invasion, adhesion, clonogenicity, cell cycle distribution, apoptosis, redox homeostasis, metabolome, and transcriptome assays of MDA-MB-231 cells.
Minimal Access Retromandibular Approach to Fractures of Vertical Segment of the Mandible: A Versatile Technique.
Indian J Plast Surg
December 2024
Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Lokmanya Tilak Municipal Medical College and General Hospital, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.
Fractures of the condylar region of the mandible, although fairly common, also generate the most debate regarding management-both closed and open treatment options have been recommended and shown to yield good results. We present our experience with a minimal access retromandibular approach to fractures of the vertical mandible. This is a retrospective study of all patients who underwent open reduction and internal fixation for fractures of the vertical mandible (condyle, subcondylar region, ramus) using a retromandibular approach at a tertiary care hospital in a metropolitan city in India between January 2022 and July 2023.

Dermatology, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, Lubbock, USA.
Biparietal osteodystrophy, also known as biparietal thinning, is an uncommon illness that causes symmetrical thinning of the parietal bones. It primarily affects women in their sixth and seventh decades of life. We present a case of a 73-year-old female with osteoporosis and osteoarthritis who visited a dermatology clinic with a bulging mass around her vertex scalp, accompanied by episodes of dizziness and blurred vision.

PLoS One

Department of Respiratory Medicine, Tokoname City Hospital, Tokoname, Aichi, Japan.
In this study, we examined the effect of a bundled approach to blood collection for blood culture on decreasing contamination. Commensal organisms were considered contaminants on the basis of the clinical course if they were recovered from only a single blood draw (set) and if a positive result for two sets was not obtained within 72 hours. The main elements of the bundle were blood collection by venipuncture, skin preparation with a chlorhexidine alcohol swab, disinfection of culture bottles, and use of a sterile blood transfer device instead of the two-needle technique for inoculation.
