Abstract Background Autogenous fat grafting (AFG) is an established technique used as adjunct to breast augmentation (BA) redesign shape. Surgeons often use experience and intuition estimate AFG volume, which can result in incorrect assessment of donor areas unnecessary removal. Objectives This aim this study was develop a method based on mathematical formula, utilizes implant volume projection predict volume. Methods Thirty patients (60 breasts) underwent primary hybrid BA. A software...
Autologous fat grafting is a procedure indicated for breast augmentation to improve coverage of silicone implants and redesign shape. Different techniques are based on parameters that have not been systematically standardized. The authors present method using zone standardization anatomy achieve an anatomical composite breast.The performed this in 76 breasts (38 patients) undergoing primary/secondary augmentation. area between the implant clavicle parasternal was marked receive divided into...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence neonatal mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO) on cleft dimensions and early palatoplasty outcomes in patients with Pierre Robin Sequence (PRS). In a prospective cohort that enrolled 24 nonsyndromic PRS, 12 submitted MDO group not treated (non-MDO group), authors compared for palate through 7 morphometric measurements at moment outcomes. At palatoplasty, presented significant shorter distance between posterior nasal spines (PNS-PNS, P <...
Purpose: This study assessed the regeneration potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) from adipose tissue associated with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in bone regeneration. Methods: Thirty Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus albinos) were divided into five groups (according to grafting material and time euthanasia): (1) autograft - 14 days (control), (2) 28 (3) MSC + PRP days, (4) papaverine (5) days. After euthanasia, graft was removed histological slides prepared. They by a blinded pathologist...
The aim of this study was to investigate whether co-culture human islets with adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) can improve islet quality and evaluate which factors play a role in the protective effect ASCs against dysfunction. Islets were cultured three experimental groups for 24 h, 48 72 h: 1) indirect ASC monolayer (Islets/ASCs); 2) alone; 3) alone. Co-culture improved viability function all culture time-points analyzed. VEGFA, HGF, IL6, IL8, IL10, CCL2, IL1B, TNF protein levels increased...
Objectives/Hypothesis Robin sequence (RS) consists of associated micrognathia, glossoptosis, and respiratory dysfunction, with or without cleft palate. Studies on how different patient characteristics impact the severity dysfunction are scarce contradictory; this study investigates features affect obstruction at diagnosis RS in controlled analysis. Study Design Retrospective cohort that enrolled 71 patients under 90 days old who received care our institution from 2009 to 2020. Methods The...

Introduction Craniofacial surgery is a specialized field that addresses congenital and acquired deformities of the head face. While physical outcomes craniofacial are well-documented, less attention has been given to psychological well-being adult patients. This abstract aims explore self-esteem issues among patients treated at Surgery Sector HCPA (Hospital de Clínicas Porto Alegre), where substantial proportion have reported problems. Objectives 1. To assess prevalence (≥18 years old)...
Introduction The Pierre-Robin sequence (PRS), characterized by micrognathia, glossoptosis, and cleft palate, has long been a subject of clinical interest. Recent research suggests potential association between PRS cognitive or psychiatric disorders. This study explores this intriguing connection, shedding light on the complex interplay craniofacial anomalies mental health. Objectives aims to establish comprehensive understanding relationship Sequence Specifically, our objectives include:...
Introduction Craniofacial malformations have long been associated with a heightened risk of psychiatric disorders. Understanding this link is crucial, as it can inform early intervention and support for affected individuals, enhancing their overall well-being. Research in area aims to shed light on the prevalence nature these disorders within craniofacial population, ultimately improving healthcare quality life individuals. Objectives This study establish comprehensive understanding...
Abstract This case report describes different repair techniques used to reconstruct a large scalp defect in brown howler monkey ( Alouatta guariba clamitans ) hit by vehicle. Three reconstructive procedures were performed two surgical stages. The had successful outcomes on the patient's rehabilitation.
PURPOSE: To evaluate experimental cranial vault reconstructions, by combining bone morphogenetic protein type 2 (BMP-2) and different matrices. METHODS: Fourty-nine animals were initially included (seven per group). We designed an experimental, open, prospective comparative study, divided in seven groups: 1 - BMP-2+calcium phosphate (BT); BMP-2+acellular dermal matrix (BM); 3 alginate (BA); 4 TCP; 5 MDM; 6 ALG; 7 Bone autograft (BAG). A failure was created left parietal of adult male mice....
Extremity reconstruction using a free fibula flap after oncological resection
ABSTRACT Objective: to validate an experimental model for the measurement of glycemic levels in surgical flaps with use common glucometers, and analyze diagnostic criteria hypoperfusion such flaps. Methods: we performed vertical myocutaneous rectus abdominis upper pedicles bilaterally 20 male Wistar rats, divided into two groups: without venous occlusion pedicle. We measured glucose systemic circulation standard glucometers. tested accuracy alternative detection hypoperfusion. Results: from...
