Breast reconstruction following mastectomy or sectorectomy significantly impacts the quality of life and psychological well-being of breast cancer patients. Since its inception in the 1950s, artificial intelligence (AI) has gradually entered the medi...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots, including ChatGPT-4 (GPT-4) and Grok-1 (Grok), have been shown to be potentially useful in several medical fields, but have not been examined in plastic and aesthetic surgery. The aim of this study i...
: Despite CTAs being critical for preoperative planning in autologous breast reconstruction, experienced plastic surgeons may have differing preferences for which side of the abdomen to use for unilateral breast reconstruction. Large language models ...
Various surgical approaches and pedicles have been described to ensure safe and satisfactory results in reduction mammaplasty. Although different breasts require different techniques, complications are common. This study aims to assess the incidence ...
BACKGROUND: Single-stage mastopexy augmentation is a much-debated intervention due to its complexity and the associated relatively high complication rates. This study aimed to reevaluate the risk factors for these complications using a novel approach...
BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) is a form of artificial intelligence that has been used to create better predictive models in medicine. Using ML algorithms, we sought to create a predictive model for breast resection weight based on anthropometric ...
BACKGROUND: The volume of the implant is the most critical element of breast reconstruction, so it is necessary to accurately assess the preoperative volume of the healthy and affected breasts and select the appropriate implant for placement. Accurat...
BACKGROUND: Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers an approach to predictive modeling. The model learns to determine specific patterns of undesirable outcomes in a dataset. Therefore, a decision-making algorithm can be built based on these patterns to p...
BACKGROUND: Although there is increasing interest in minimally invasive prosthesis breast reconstruction (PBR), whether meshes application in minimally invasive PBR can improve complications and cosmetic effects remains controversial. The author retr...
