portada - Burns - Vol. 40; No 6 (2014)For burn patients, the daily dressing process causes pain and anxiety. Although drugs can relieve them, the degree of pain during dressing changes is often moderate to severe. Therefore, relevant supporting interventions, like music as an ideal intervention, could alleviate the patient’s pain. This study investigated the impact of music intervention at dressing change time on burn patients’ pain and anxiety.

logo Cochrane - small (fondo blanco) Las infecciones del sitio quirúrgico (ISQ) pueden retardar la cicatrización de la herida, deteriorar el resultado estético y aumentar los costos de la asistencia sanitaria. Los antibióticos tópicos a veces se usan para reducir la exposición a contaminantes microbianos después de los procedimientos quirúrgicos, con la intención de reducir las ISQ. El objetivo primario de esta revisión fue determinar si la aplicación de antibióticos tópicos a las heridas quirúrgicas con cicatrización primaria reduce la incidencia de ISQ y si aumenta la incidencia de resultados adversos.

logo Cochrane - small (fondo blanco)El cáncer de mama es el cáncer más frecuente en las mujeres en todo el mundo y es la principal causa de muerte por cáncer entre las mujeres. La mastectomía profiláctica o curativa a menudo está seguida por la reconstrucción de la mama, por lo que existen varios enfoques quirúrgicos que utilizan implantes de mama con los que los cirujanos pueden restaurar la apariencia, el tamaño y la forma natural de la mama. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar los efectos de diferentes tipos de implantes de mama sobre la contractura capsular, las complicaciones quirúrgicas a corto y a largo plazo, el nivel de satisfacción posoperatoria y la calidad de vida en las pacientes sometidas al proceder.

JPRAS - Vol. 67; No. 1 (2013)Pain in the early post-operative period following subpectoral placement of tissue expanders and implants is commonly reported. The current standard of care for pain control involves the use of oral narcotics. This study, determinated the efficacy of Botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) injections for pain relief following placement of subpectoral tissue expanders and breast implants.

La gluteoplastia mediante lipoinyección debe ser una cirugía segura que partiendo de una planificación adecuada, permita un aumento moderado enfatizando contornos y mejorando la forma natural de la región glútea. Debe permitir obtener resultados predecibles, duraderos y reproducibles, además de ser aplicable en una amplia variedad de pacientes. En este artículo se presenta un método de gluteoplastia de aumento sistematizada con lipoinyección, que además de ser reproducible, permite obtener resultados consistentes, naturales y permanentes, distribuyendo estratégicamente volúmenes en cuadrantes.

portada - PRS - Vol. 132; No. 2 (2013)Breast implant–associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a distinctive type of T-cell lymphoma that arises around breast implants. Although rare, all cases with adequate history have involved a textured breast implant. The objective of this study was to determine the U.S. incidence and lifetime prevalence of breast implant–associated ALCL in women with textured breast implants.
This study demonstrates a statistically significant association between textured breast implants and breast implant–associated ALCL. Although women with a textured breast implant have a low risk of developing breast implant–associated ALCL, the current U.S. incidence is significantly higher than that of primary ALCL of the breast in the general population.

portada - PRS - Vol. 132; No. 2 (2013)Today, social media have become an integral part of the fabric of our lives, our society, and, of course, medicine, including plastic surgery—academically, personally, and professionally. Social media have impacted the doctor-patient relationship, the marketing of practices and academic journal articles, and the perception of physicians by society. Much has changed in the social media sphere over the past 13 years.

portada - JPRAS - Vol. 70; No. 5 (2017)Breast implants and, more recently, autologous fat grafting are the two most common treatments used to correct tuberous breast deformity (TBD). The post-surgical quality of life between the two techniques is not well demonstrated. This study aimed to compare satisfaction and health-related quality of life in patients affected by TBD between these two techniques.
All TBD patients operated between January 2008 and May 2015 were retrospectively identified, and only those treated with implants or lipofilling were included. Satisfaction was evaluated at least 6 months after surgery with the postoperative Breast-Q ® augmentation module.
