Introduction: Giant juvenile breast fibroadenoma can cause deformity and should be excised. Cosmesis is an important consideration in young patients.

Patient Concerns: The patient was admitted to our hospital for a mass of 6 × 6 cm in her left breast.

Diagnose: A giant juvenile fibroadenoma.

Interventions: With the help of Mammotome, we translated the larger mass to smaller one and removed it via a small circumareolar incision with no residual tumor.

Outcomes: There was no recurrence of disease after 2 years.

Conclusion: Mammotome-combined resection is a new approach that can be used to excise giant fibroadenomas with a minimal incision, and provides a favorable contour to the breast.

Introduction: Post-operative complications related to hardware, particularly symptoms caused by it, such as implant impingement, wire breakage, and skin infection are frequently reported following surgical management of patellar fractures with stainless steel wires. As a potential solution, some researchers have advocated for the use of non-absorbable sutures for fracture fixation. This study aims to investigate the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients treated with fiber taping as an alternative technique.

Introduction: Burn injuries are a global health challenge, causing significant pain, tissue damage and complex wound management issues. Traditional treatments like surgical debridement, while effective, pose challenges such as blood loss, grafting requirements, and prolonged hospital stays. Enzymatic debridement, such as the Nexobrid procedure, effectively removes necrotic tissue but can be painful for patients.
