In this case report, the authors found that hair transplantation on a free microvascular flap may be a viable and effective option for achieving good aesthetic outcomes when treating residual alopecia following reconstruction of large scalp defects.

This study explored the use of multiphoton microscopy to monitor changes in tumors and surrounding tissues in breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy, finding it may effectively detect treatment response at cellular levels without using exogenous contrast agents.

This review discusses current techniques for scalp reconstruction following oncologic surgery and reports no new clinical outcomes, emphasizing the importance of tailored approaches for satisfactory closure.

In this study, researchers found that both the EU-TIRADS and Bethesda systems exhibited high specificity but suboptimal sensitivity for predicting thyroid nodule malignancy in patients who underwent surgery, with Bethesda system showing particularly high specificity in this postoperative population.

This article introduces a novel, inexpensive hair preparation technique using glove-finger sheaths to secure and protect hair during calvarial surgery, reducing procedure time and hair damage without the need for full scalp shaving.

This article discusses scalp micropigmentation as a noninvasive method to conceal various forms of hair loss and scalp abnormalities and reports no clinical results; the authors highlight its safe and effective application.

This study identified specific genes involved in radiation-induced fibrosis in skin, capsule, and muscle tissues of breast cancer patients, offering insights that may help improve mitigation strategies for these side effects.

This study found that prolonged acute tissue expansion notably increased the amount of scalp tissue removed during scalp reduction surgery in three patients.

This review outlines the diverse clinical presentations of cutaneous metastases in breast cancer patients and emphasizes the importance of biopsy for accurate diagnosis, but reports no new results.

This abstract discusses the growing popularity of follicular unit extraction in hair restoration surgery but offers no clinical findings.

This article highlights that permanent chemotherapy-induced alopecia can occur and is more commonly associated with taxane therapy, advising awareness among patients and clinicians.

This retrospective study found that applying local skin precooling before scalp nerve block significantly reduced injection site pain during PRP mesotherapy for patients with androgenetic alopecia, compared to those who did not receive precooling, thus improving patient comfort and compliance.

This article discusses two donor site reharvesting methods that may allow further hair restoration sessions and improve donor scar aesthetics but reports no new clinical results.

In this study of women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy and scalp cooling, 12% experienced incomplete hair regrowth at 6 months, with tamoxifen therapy identified as a significant risk factor for persistent chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

This study evaluated 23 cases of MRKH syndrome undergoing neo-vaginal reconstruction using islanded pudendal thigh flaps, finding a 100% flap survival and patency rate, along with satisfactory functional and aesthetic outcomes despite minor issues like hair growth in some patients.

New techniques in hair restoration surgery can lead to better hair alignment.

This article reports that the use of an ultrasharp tungsten electrode was deemed a useful tool in hundreds of scalp reduction procedures for hair restoration at Peterson Medical Institute.

This review highlights that nonscalp donor hair harvesting, particularly from the beard, chest, and abdomen, can provide additional grafts for patients with insufficient scalp hair, though it requires high technical expertise.

This review highlights the promising clinical outcomes of sacituzumab tirumotecan (sac-TMT), an antibody-drug conjugate for breast cancer that targets TROP2, demonstrating improved response rates and progression-free survival, with manageable safety concerns including primarily mild-to-moderate nausea and alopecia.

This review discusses androgen receptor targeting as a potential treatment strategy for triple-negative breast cancer and reports no new experimental outcomes.

This study found that a mitoxantrone, vincristine, and prednisolone regimen effectively treated recurrent breast cancer with a 70% response rate, though it was associated with significant myelosuppression.

This study observed various patterns of permanent alopecia in breast cancer patients treated with taxanes and adjuvant hormonal chemotherapy, hypothesizing disruptions in hair follicle cycles due to chemoinflammatory and hormonal factors.

This review discusses scalp micropigmentation techniques and their customization to individual patients, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a rare instance of alopecia neoplastica, where breast cancer metastasized to the scalp, which can be mistakenly diagnosed as alopecia areata.

This study found that follicular unit extraction can be safely performed without bupivacaine and nerve blocks, using lignocaine with adrenaline as an effective anesthetic for patients with certain grades of androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that the SAFE System may improve follicular unit extraction by reducing follicle transection rates and broadening patient eligibility, with only minor adverse reactions reported.

Since 1995, we only use Follicular Unit Transplantation for hair restoration and stopped using minigrafting/micrografting techniques.

This overview describes the Dermatologic Surgery journal's comprehensive focus on dermatologic surgical procedures, but it presents no new research findings.

This study found that using a multibladed knife during hair transplantation surgery enhanced the rate of minigraft preparation and produced more uniformly sized grafts compared to traditional techniques.
