“…Moreover, the additional fascia layer can both increase the blood supply and bear most of the tension among the three layers. Another feature is that the hymenal mucosa (the first and third stratum) is sutured by mattress suture, which is generally considered to be a favorable technique for incision healing [24].…”

“…When gasless endoscopic or robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy is performed, the retromammary space can be easily dissected using conventional surgical instruments such as Army or Richardson retractors. The subcutaneous skin flap can be dissected with surgical scissors after injection of tumescent fluid (Hunstadt's solution, 1,000 mL Ringer's lactate + 50 mL, 1% lidocaine + 1 mL, 1:1,000 epinephrine) [ 30 ]. The lateral and medial sides of the breast can then be transected using various energy devices, including electrocautery, the LigaSure TM device (Covidien, Mansfield, USA), the Harmonic TM scalpel (Ethicon Endo-Surgery, Inc., Cincinnati, USA), or the Thunderbeat TM (Olympus, New York, USA), under an endoscopic camera.…”

Surgical approaches in breast cancer have been changing to ensure both oncologic safety and cosmetic results. Although the concept of “oncoplastic breast surgery” has been accepted for decades, breast and plastic surgeons have been striving to develop more advanced surgical skills that ensure non-inferior oncologic outcomes with better cosmetic outcomes. Endoscopic or robotic devices, which are currently available only for chest or abdominal surgeries, could be used for breast surgery to ensure better cosmetic outcomes. The authors refer to this surgical concept as “aesthetic scar-less breast surgery and reconstruction,” a term that encompasses the consequential concepts rather than naming it with simple technical words such as endoscopy-assisted or robot-assisted surgery. The “scar-less” term simply means leaving less of a scar, and better results can be expected by designing incisions on invisible areas. Herein, we summarize our experiences with various techniques of “aesthetic scar-less” surgery and review the existing literature on this topic.

There are many chemicals that can cause burns. Although they are generally acidic and basic in nature, there are more than one million known chemical compounds, of which 300 have been declared highly hazardous chemical substances by the National Fire Protection Society. Chemical burns account for approximately 10.7% of all burn injuries and 30% of deaths because of burns. Chemicals can be classified as acid, alkali, organic, and inorganic compounds. Acids act by denaturing and coagulating proteins. Alkaline burns cause deeper burns than acid burns.
