Complications in facial plastic surgery can lead to pain, suffering, and permanent harm. Yet, the etiology and outcomes of adverse events are understudied. This study aims to determine the etiology and outcomes of adverse events reported in aesthetic facial plastic surgery and identify quality improvement opportunities.
A cross-sectional survey analysis was conducted using an anonymous 22-item questionnaire distributed to members of the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS) and American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS). Participants were queried on demographics, practice type, and adverse events related to aesthetic facial surgeries.
Two hundred fifty-three individuals participated; nearly half of respondents (49.0%) held membership in both AAO-HNS and AAFPRS. Of these, 40.8% of respondents reported at least one adverse event within the past 12months of practice. #link# A total of 194 adverse events were reported, most commonly related to facelift (n=59/194, 30.4%), rhinoplasty (n=55/194, 28.4%), and injection procedures (n=38/194, 19.6%), with hematoma or seroma being the most commonly described. Most adverse events were self-limited, but approximately 68% resulted in further procedures. Surgeon error or poor judgement (n=42) and patient non-adherence (n=18) were the most commonly ascribed reasons for adverse events; 37.1% of participants reported a change in clinical practice after the incident.
Adverse events were not infrequent in facial plastic surgery. Understanding these adverse events can provide impetus for tracking outcomes, standardization, and engagement with lifelong learning, self-assessment, and evaluation of practice performance.

Bouveret Syndrome is a rare but important variant of gallstone ileus with high potential for morbidity and mortality. Bouveret syndrome is a complication of gallstone disease resulting from chronic inflammation and subsequent fistulization between the gallbladder and duodenum or stomach with subsequent impaction of the stone in the proximal GI tract. Here we present a case in an elderly man with moderate medical comorbidities.
An elderly man presented to the hospital with symptoms of gastrointestinal obstruction. Upon further diagnostic work-up, he was noted to have a 5.8 cm gallstone impacted in his proximal GI tract and thus diagnosed with a rare variant of gallstone ileus-Bouveret syndrome.
The therapeutic goal in approaching Bouveret syndrome is removal of the stone and improvement in obstruction and cholangitis. This may be accomplished with surgery or endoscopic therapy-although this may be less effective. Bouveret syndrome may have high morbidity.
Bouveret syndrome is a rare but potentially serious syndrome that should be managed accordingly. It should remain on the differential diagnosis of an elderly patient presenting with gastrointestinal obstructions, particularly if there is a history of gallstone disease and concern for proximal GI obstruction.

Pigmented villous nodular synovitis is an uncommon proliferative disease of the joints, and rarely reported in the shoulder. It can become symptomatic when proliferating soft tissue infiltrates a joint, causing arthritic changes including bone erosion. The literature has described the disease progression as indolent. Here we report on a case of PVNS of the shoulder joint which rapidly lead to significant bone damage and was subsequently treated by shoulder arthroplasty.
We report here on a 71-year old female patient who presented with a 6 month history of aggravating shoulder pain. Radiography imaging over a one month period indicated rapid joint destruction. Magnetic resonance imaging suggested the presence of PVNS of the shoulder joint and significant bone erosion. The patient was subsequently treated by shoulder arthroplasty performed by authors. Histological examination confirmed the PVNS diagnosis. link2 Shoulder pain significantly decreased during the follow up period, and the patient was able to resume daily activities.
Comparing to Milwaukee shoulder syndrome or a joint infection, PVNS is known to progress indolently. However, our case clearly showed that PVNS could also cause radical destruction of the joint. Previous reports showed the high recurrence rate of PVNS after joint preserving surgery. In our experience hemiarthroplasty could be the choice of treatment with the low recurrence rate and high functional outcome.
Physicians should include PVNS in the differential diagnosis when they are presented with evidence of rapid destruction of the shoulder joint. Hemiarthroplasty could be treatment option for PVNS of shoulder joint.

Delayed massive hemothorax after blunt trauma is rare, although associated with significant morbidity and mortality. In most cases, the intercostal artery is the main bleeding source. We report a rare case of delayed massive hemothorax due to a diaphragm injury with a lower rib fractures.
A 58-year-old man, transported to our hospital four hours after a 2-meter fall from a ladder, had left-sided fractures to ribs 11 and 12, thoracic and lumbar vertebral fractures, and traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage. On admission, no left hemothorax was documented; however, 17 h post-injury he developed hypovolemic shock. link3 Plain chest radiographs showed a massive left hemothorax with a mediastinal shift. Chest contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed extravasation of the contrast agent in the chest cavity. No intercostal arterial bleeding was evident on emergency angiography. A left anterolateral thoracotomy through the 6th intercostal space revealed rib fractures and active bleeding from the dorsal side of the left hemidiaphragm. Suture hemostasis was performed for the diaphragm injury and the disrupted ribs were repaired.
Embolization of diaphragm-feeding arteries is not a simple or fast procedure. Clinically, predicting delayed hemothorax is challenging, and careful observation of trauma patients with lower rib fractures is needed. Thoracotomy should be considered for immediate hemostasis in patients with sudden shock, with complete hematoma drainage and repair of the disrupted rib.
Diaphragmatic injury with lower rib fractures can result in delayed hemothorax, requiring thoracotomy.

Lateral winging scapula is rare and generated by the trapezius paralysis. It is most likely iatrogenic from procedures involving the posterior cervical triangle. The modified Eden-Lange procedures one of the options by restoring the major actions of a flaccid trapezius. This case report aims to evaluate the outcomes.
A 34-year-old female came with right lateral scapular winging after radical neck tumor dissection and miss diagnosed by another hospital and underwent shoulder surgery. We performed a physical examination and showed lateral winging scapula. The best management therapy for this patient used modified Eden-Lange procedure.
Conservative treatments for Lateral scapular winging caused by spinal accessory nerve injury might be successful in early 20 months. However, find more was injured 26 months before surgery which made Eden-Lange Procedures was the best choice for the patient. Modifications to this procedure allowed her to achieve excellent results.
Correction of the lateral scapular winging by modified Eden-Lange procedure combined with physical therapy for patient's trapezius palsy to gain adequate stability for daily activities.

Osteonecrosis (ON) is characterized by cellular death of bone components due to interruption of blood supply that leads to bone ischemia and potential joint destruction. There are multiple risk factors and medical condition associated with ON, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The most common sites of ON are the femoral head, distal femur, proximal humerus, talus and lumbar spine. Very few cases of nontraumatic ON in distal tibia have been reported in the literature.
We present a case of 23-year-old female diagnosed with osteonecrosis of distal tibia and history of SLE. The patient also had history of avascular necrosis of right hip and underwent right total hip arthroplasty. We treated the patients with conservative treatment for intial management.
The risk of ON in SLE patients is likely due to the results of both the SLE itself and use of corticosteroids. Systemic inflammation in SLE reduces the development of osteoblasts, increases osteoclast maturation and activity and increases protohrombotic agents that can lead to rapid bone loss. Corticosteroids are the most consistent risk factor associated with the development of ON in SLE. Conservative medical management is effective in the early stages of the disease before bone collapse.
Despite advances in the diagnosis and treatment of SLE, symptomatic ON continues to be a significant comorbidity. Strategies to detect and manage early stage ON is necessary to prevent the progression of this serious complication.

Primary apocrine sweat gland carcinoma (PASGC) is a rare subtype of sweat gland carcinoma, mostly occurring in the apocrine-dense regions such as the axilla, areola, and scalp.
An 83-year-old woman developed a red elevating mass on her left axilla, without palpable axillary lymph nodes. Excision biopsy revealed that the tumor was PASGC. Additional wide resection and sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) were performed without any adjuvant therapy. One year after the surgical procedure, the patient did not show any evidence of recurrence and axillary surgical complications.
As PASGC arising in the axilla can progress aggressively, differential diagnosis is essential. Previous reports have shown the usefulness of SLNB, but the axillary management for patients with clinically node negative PASGC has not been established because of its rarity. Especially in axillary cases, to identify the true sentinel lymph nodes is sometimes considered inaccurate because the lymphatic flow is complicated in the axilla.
Although SLNB in sweat gland carcinoma has believed safety and been performed, this is the first axillary PASGC case that was performed SLNB.
