RESULTS: Hundred and sixteen pre-and post-operative 3D photo data sets were included. The sample included 29 subjects. The facial volume was analyzed both overall and comparing each subgroup (orthognathic versus orthognathic + fat grafting group). Post-operative facial volume increase averaged 23.7% for the entire cohort (FG and nFG). By week twelve, the swelling decreased about 62% from baseline. In all patients, there was a statistically significant decrease in facial volume with time. In the fat-grafted group, despite adding volume, was equal to the non-fat grafted group at week 1, yet the rate of decrease was faster with fat grafting at week 12.

Abstract 4: Morbidity and Quality of Life Outcomes of Breast Reconstruction for Unilateral Mastectomy vs. Additional Contralateral Prophylactic Mastectomy: a Cohort Study of 211 Breast Reconstruction Patients
CONCLUSIONS: For the first time, our results reveal a decrease of the stemness marker CD34 in murine skin cells in hypertrophic scars over time compared to unwounded skin. We are currently conducting single cell transcriptional analyses and functional studies on these fibroblasts to understand the heterogeneity of fibroblasts during hypertrophic scarring and the specific role of CD34+ fibroblas...
متن کاملBreast Reconstruction in Patients with Unilateral Breast Cancer Who Choose Contralateral Prophylactic Mastectomy - An Assessment of Postoperative Morbidity.
BACKGROUND: The benefit of contralateral prophylactic mastectomy in patients without an increased risk of contralateral disease remains a subject of debate (1-3). The potential for increased morbidity with bilateral, as opposed to unilateral, breast reconstruction in this population has not been evaluated in a prospective fashion. The aim of this study is to assess the postoperative morbidity a...

ABSTRACT Background: The transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TRAM) flap remains the gold standard for postmastectomy reconstruction either immediate or delayed. However, transfer of TRAM flap can be associated with donor site morbidities and complications in flap. A successful reconstruction consists of careful patient selection, surgical technique and meticulous preoperative plannin...

متن کاملWhat is new in the surgical management and prevention of breast cancer?
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in Australian women. As most women now survive breast cancer, improving quality-of-life outcomes is increasingly important and major changes are occurring in breast surgery to meet this challenge. Use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy results in lower mastectomy rates, broader surgical options and less surgical morbidity. Oncoplastic breast surgery (OBS) fa...
