Preventing the “Bottoming Out” and “Star-gazing” Phenomena in Inferior Pedicle Breast Reduction with an Acellular Dermal Matrix Internal Brassiere

Conclusion  The use of an acellular dermal matrix internal brassiere is a safe and effective technique for preventing the “bottoming out”
and “star-gazing” phenomena that occurs after inferior pedicle breast reduction. Longer-term follow-up will be required to
assess the longevity of these results.

Avulsion fracture of the olecranon following thermal injury: A case report

A 48-year-old man sustained 65% total body surface area flame burns with inhalational injury following a domestic house fire. Most of the affected area was deep dermal or full thickness in nature. No other traumatic injuries were sustained. Aggressive fluid resuscitation and intensive therapy was commenced. Early burn excision was carried out one day post-injury and resurfacing of the wounds using combinations of allograft and autograft was undertaken over the following weeks. Systemic sepsis required prolonged intravenous antibiotic therapy and multi-organ failure necessitated inotropic support, mechanical ventilation and renal filtration.

The versatility of the inferior dermal flap in implant/expander-based immediate breast reconstruction and its application in augmentation–mastopexy

We report our experience of this technique in patients undergoing unilateral skin-reducing mastectomies for prophylaxis and
we demonstrate the versatility of the dermal flap when applied for vertical scar augmentation–mastopexy in the asymmetrical
breast and for Wise pattern skin resection mastopexy–augmentation in massive weight loss.

Skin-Reducing Subcutaneous Mastectomy Using a Dermal Barrier Flap and Immediate Breast Reconstruction with an Implant: A New Surgical Design for Reconstruction of Early-Stage Breast Cancer

Conclusions  The authors present their early results with SRSM using the dermal barrier flap and silicone implants for early-stage breast
cancer. The dermal barrier flap became a reliable procedure by providing a decreased breast envelope, eliminating the risk
of implant exposure, and forming a double layer of dermal tissue at the incision line.
