Paul, M. D.
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2008-07-01, Volúmen 35, Número 3, Páginas 451-461

portada - Clinics in Plastic Surgery - Vol. 36 (2008)This article describes the indications and techniques related to the use of barbed sutures in facial aesthetic plastic surgery. The principle applications for barbed sutures in facial aesthetic plastic surgery are those involving lifts of the brow, midface, and the lower face and neck. Usually all three areas require surgical maneuvers to create a harmonious rejuvenation. Regardless of where in the face bidirectional barbed sutures are planned, five essential steps are needed: (1) making the incision or incisions, (2) dissecting soft tissue, (3) proximal anchoring, (4) deploying threads, and (5) molding soft tissue.

Predictability of anthropomorphic measurements in implant selection for breast reconstruction: a retrospective cohort study

Riggio, E; Ardoino, I; Richardson, C; Biganzoli, E.
European Journal of Plastic Surgery, June 2017, Volume 40, Issue 3, pp 203-212

portada - EJPS - Vol. 35 (2012)Preoperative implant planning for breast reconstruction is often at risk of being changed perioperatively. This study examined which factors are associated with a change of implant selection.
Women who had unilateral two-stage breast reconstruction between 2002 and 2007 were studied. Inclusion criteria were photographic evidence of preoperative skin markings indicating breast dimensions and a selected implant model. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify variables associated with a changed selection.
