The author reports the first association of central areolar choroidal dystrophy in three brothers with pseudoachondroplastic spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia. Both central areolar choroidal dystrophy and pseudoachondroplastic spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia represent heterogeneous disorders with autosomal dominant transmission. It is hypothesized that this association is a result of a new subtype involving both the skeletal system and the eye.

Background: The 2021 ISAPS global survey shows a 49.6% rise in demand for breast implant explantation from 2017. The current challenge is to formulate a standardized technique of mastopexy after explantation, which counters the volume deficit and skin redundancy post removal of implant, giving aesthetically pleasing breast.

Achieving satisfactory nipple esthetics following skin-sparing or nipple-sparing mastectomy is an important element of ensuring positive patient outcomes. Several techniques used to reconstruct the nipple-areolar complex have been described in previous literature and have had success in securing good cosmetic outcomes. For patients with macrothelia, surgeons may employ a number of options in reducing nipple size.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to define genotypic-phenotypic correlations related to PRPH2-associated retinopathies in an observational longitudinal cohort and to improve diagnostic accuracy.
Methods: Individuals with PRPH2 variants were identified by genetic sequencing of 263 individuals (including 59 families). Ocular examinations with multimodal imaging were evaluated.

Article Synopsis
- The study compares two remote scarless thyroid surgery approaches: the transoral vestibular approach and the transareolar approach, focusing on cosmetic outcomes and postoperative pain in patients with papillary microcarcinoma.
- A thorough meta-analysis was conducted by reviewing multiple medical databases, yielding 10 relevant studies from an initial pool of 389, leading to significant findings about the procedures.
- Results indicate that the transoral approach provides better cosmetic results without significant differences in pain levels or outcomes related to central lymph node dissection, emphasizing the need for more extensive research.

Background: Immediate autologous reconstruction after nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) is challenging in the ptotic breast due to the large skin envelope and reduced vascular supply to the nipple areolar complex (NAC). Patients with significant ptosis who want to preserve their NACs are often advised to undergo a two-stage procedure: first, a mammoplasty is performed to lift the NAC, and second, a delayed NSM with autologous reconstruction is performed. Unfortunately, patients with active cancer cannot delay their mastectomy; as such, they are often treated with skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM) instead.
