Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a dreaded complication following microsurgical breast reconstruction. While the high-risk nature of the procedure is well-known, a thorough analysis of modifiable risk factors has not been performed. The purpose of this study is to analyze the association of such factors with the postoperative occurrence of VTE longitudinally. Methods: Using the Truven MarketScan Database, a retrospective cohort study of women who underwent microsurgical breast...
Background: The Work relative value units (wRVUs) system was developed as a quantifier of physician labor, technical skill, and training time required to complete surgical procedures. Thus, more complex surgical procedures that require greater technical skills and are more time consuming should yield a greater compensation. It is known that prosthetic breast reconstruction reimburses more per hour than autologous breast reconstruction. However, there is limited data comparing wRVUs and operative...
Background: Centrifugation creates “graded densities” of fat with varying cellular and biological compositions that influence graft retention. This study aimed to find a accurate method to identify fat fractions that are suitable for implantation. Methods: Five marker floats (0.925, 0.930, 0.935, 0.940, and 0.945 g/ml) were added to human lipoaspirates which were then centrifuged at 1200 g for 3 min to grade the density of centrifugated lipoaspirates. After centrifugation, four fat...
Background: Migraine surgery is an increasingly popular treatment option for migraine patients. The lesser occipital nerve (LON) is a common trigger point for headache pathologies, but there is a paucity of research regarding the LON and its intimate association with the spinal accessory nerve (SAN). Methods: Six cadaver necks were dissected. The LON, great auricular nerve (GAN), and SAN were identified and systematically measured and recorded. These landmarks included the longitudinal...
Background: This study used coarsened exact matching to investigate the effectiveness of the LACE+ index predictive tool in patients undergoing plastic surgery. Methods: Coarsened exact matching was used to assess the predictive ability of the LACE+ index among plastic surgery patients over a two-year period (2016-2018) at one health system (n = 5744). Subjects were matched on factors not included in the LACE+ index such as duration of surgery, BMI, and race among others. Outcomes studied...
Deprojection of an overprojected nose and correction of an infralobular deformity are very challenging for rhinoplasty surgeons because they need systematic approach to correct these problems. A deviated nose with a dorsal hump is a common deformity which is best treated using septal reconstruction and the component dorsal hump reduction technique using an open rhinoplasty approach. This article and video shows how to correct a deviated nose with overprojection and a dorsal hump deformity. Conflict...
Introduction: Total extra-peritoneal laparoscopic-assisted (TEP-lap-assisted) harvest of the deep inferior epigastric (DIE) vessels permits a decrease in myofascial dissection in DIEP flap breast reconstruction. We present a reliable technique that further decreases donor site morbidity in autologous breast reconstruction. Methods: The authors conducted a retrospective cohort study of female subjects presenting to the senior surgeon from March 2018 to March 2019 for autologous breast...
