portada - JPRAS - Vol. 69; No. 11 (2016)Within a surgical department, communication is of the essence. Provided and adapted exchange between practitioners is the key to achieve premium patient care and optimize therapeutic strategies. With the use of smartphones, instant messaging applications face a growing popularity in both private and professional sectors, serving as a secure, efficient, and economical communication tool by optimizing transmission and data usage within teams.
Here, we aim to present the experience and results of the plastic surgery team in CHU Amiens using instant messaging as part of our medical transmissions for nearly three years.

portada - Aesthetic Plastic Surgery - Vol. 41; No. 2 (2017)Aesthetic breast area improvements for gynecomastia and gender dysphoria patients who seek a more masculine appearance have increased recently. We present our clinical experience in breast masculinization and a classification for these patients.
From July 2003 to May 2014, 68 patients seeking a more masculine thorax underwent surgery. They were divided into five groups depending on three factors: excess fatty tissue, breast tissue, and skin. A specific surgical treatment was assigned according to each group. The surgical treatments included thoracic liposuction, subcutaneous mastectomy, periareolar skin resection in one or two stages, and mastectomy with a nipple areola complex graft.

portada - Aesthetic Plastic Surgery - Vol. 41; No. 2 (2017)Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a rare, potentially fatal, infective complication that can occur after surgery. Diagnosis is still difficult and mainly based on clinical data. Only a prompt pharmacological and surgical therapy can avoid dramatic consequences. There are few reports regarding NF as a complication after aesthetic surgical procedures, and a systematic review still lacks.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery – Global Open: Post Editor Corrections: May 25, 2017

portada - PRS Golbal Open - Vol. 1; No. 3 (2013)The increasing variety of breast implants has led to their classification into «profile» types to guide implant cataloguing and selection. Implant «profile» describes the overall silhouette of the implant. It represents a permutation of all 3 dimensions of the implant: base diameter, projection, and volume. Implant «profile» is not the same as implant projection. Implant projection is a quantifiable linear measurement of the anterior-posterior dimension of the implant, whereas implant «profile» is a vendor-driven assessment that currently lacks universal standardization. Until «profile» assessments are standardized across vendors, it behooves us to be cognizant of their limitations as primary variables used to guide implant selection.

portada - Burns - Vol. 40; No 6 (2014)The ability to better prognosticate burn injury outcome is challenging and historically, most center use the Baux or revised Baux score to help prognosticate burn outcome, however, the weighted contribution of comorbidity on burn mortality has traditionally not been accounted for nor adequately studied. We therefore sought to determine the effect of comorbidities, using the Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) on burn mortality.

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.

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.
