Social interactions are largely dependent on the interpretation of information conveyed through facial expressions. Although reanimation seeks restoration expression emotion, outcome measures have not addressed this directly. This study evaluates use a machine learning technology to directly measure before and after surgery. Fifteen subjects with palsy were evaluated both undergoing cross-facial nerve grafting free gracilis muscle transfer. Eight healthy volunteers assessed for control...
Limited data are available regarding observers' visual attention to faces with congenital difference. We implemented eye tracking technology examine this issue, as it pertains particularly cleft deformity.Four hundred three observers assessed 273 clinical images, while their movements were unobtrusively tracked using an infrared sensor. Forty-one facial images of the repaired lip, 137 other conditions, and 95 matched controls assessed. Twenty regions interest ("lookzones") considered for all...
Aesthetic facial surgeries historically rely on subjective analysis in determining success; this limits objective comparison of surgical outcomes.This case study exemplifies the use an artificial intelligence software objectively analyzing rejuvenation techniques with aim reducing bias.Retrospectively, all patients who underwent surgery concomitant procedures from 2015 to 2017 were included (n = 32). Patients categorized into Groups A C: Group A-10 superficial musculoaponeurotic system...
The perceptual response to aging changes in the periorbital region and effects of surgical rejuvenation on that have not been elucidated. authors examined reflexive visual before after brow lift upper blepharoplasty surgery investigated how observers' character attributions images were affected by rejuvenative intervention.Preoperative postoperative photographs obtained patients with ptosis dermatochalasis who underwent blepharoplasty. Forty observers each image while an infrared...
Questions persist regarding the general applicability of Furlow palatoplasty technique, and thus, widespread adoption its use has been uneven. This study describes a consecutive, nonselective series primary palatoplasties. Highlighted is unique fact that plastic surgical residents functioned as surgeon for all steps procedures throughout series.A retrospective review was undertaken palatoplasties performed under direction senior between December 2005 April 2012. A stringent requirement...
Hand aneurysms in infants are extremely rare and, unlike their adult counterparts, cannot be explained by repetitive trauma to the palm. When they occur, most often located ulnar artery. Usually there is no history of trauma, and an alternative diagnosis like malignancy must excluded. Helpful physical findings aid include rapid appearance a mass over course few days, pulsatile nature, location along side hand. These cases can challenging excisional biopsy may required if lesion thrombosed...
Summary: An alternative surgical treatment is proposed for closure of tracheocutaneous fistulas. The authors present a new technique reconstruction persistent fistula resultant from temporary tracheostomy. single-stage under local anesthesia involves fistulous tract turnover flap with perforated 0.15 mm polydioxanone plate between the and subcutaneous closure. This article presents 3 cases treated by this method. At follow-up examination after follow-up, no recurrent formation had occurred,...
We provide a case report of reconstruction massive chest wall defect after recurrent phyllodes tumour resections. The used bipedicled groin and latissimus dorsi flap, with composite rib autologous reconstruction. patient successfully recovered from the operation. Our illustrates applicability this flap in armamentarium anterior reconstructive options.
Abstract Background For transgender women, there is often the innate assumption that surgical breast augmentation will increase perceived chest femininity beyond hormone therapy alone. Objectives This study aimed to evaluate whether lay individuals found surgically augmented breasts more feminine than development from replacement alone in patients. Methods We obtained preoperative (maximal growth on therapy) and postoperative (after primary augmentation) images of 22 patients, age-...
Widespread use of face masks has dramatically affected the ability to interpret emotional expression and communication. Wearing a mask that covers lower challenges transmission emotions, which can be misinterpreted. We evaluated effect on facial emotion interpretation using artificial intelligence. In our study, 102 images resemble real human faces (51 unmasked 51 masked) were produced randomly by generative adversarial networks website https://thispersondoesnotexist.com, created Karras et...
GOALS/PURPOSE: The availability of objective outcome measures for facial reconstructive surgery remains lacking. Evaluations submitted by external raters or patient self-report may be influenced expert knowledge, emotional antecedent, implicit attitude. Visual markers that lead to differential perception patients before and after upper blepharoplasty were explored. By examining the early stages visual processing occur when an observer encounters images affected individuals, we intended...
Dynamic facial reanimation is the gold standard treatment for a paralyzed face. The use of cross-face nerve graft (CFNG) in combination with masseteric to innervate free gracilis muscle has been reported provide both spontaneity and strong neural input. We report case series dual innervation, using novel method where branch masseter coapted side CFNG.
Background: Limited studies have detailed the risk of mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction among women who previously received mantle field radiation. Methods: A single institution retrospective review from 2010 to 2020 patients treated radiation (MF-RT) and subsequent was performed. Patients prior whole irradiation (WBI) were also included as a reference group. Demographic, comorbidity, surgical factors collected. The primary outcome major complications, defined those requiring...
Abstract Facial paralysis can impair one's ability to form facial expressions that are congruent with internal emotion. This hinders communication and the cognitive processing of emotional experience. reanimation surgery, which aims restore full expressivity is a relatively recent undertaking still evolving. Due in large part published techniques, refinements, clinical outcomes scientific literature, consensus on best practice gradually emerging, whereas controversies exist. Taking stock...
