Abstract	Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the volumetric airway changes using three-dimensional images following unilateral vertical mandibular distraction osteogenesis (uVMD) among patients with hemifacial microsomia (HFM). Design: This retrospective study analyzed cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans of patients with HFM at three different timepoints; pretreatment (T0), posttreatment (T1), and at least 6 months post-distraction (T2). The individuals underwent uVMD between December 2018-Januaray 2021. The nasopharyngeal (NP) volume, oropharyngeal (OP) volume, and the area of maximum constriction (MC) were measured. Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare the airway volumes between T0-T1, T1-T2, and T0-T2. Results: Five patients met the inclusion criteria (mean age = 10.4 years; 1 female, 4 males). Intraclass correlation analysis showed excellent interrater reliability ( Conclusion: Surgical intervention with uVMD may significantly increase the OP airway volume and the total airway volume among patients with HFM immediately after distraction. However, the statistical significance diminished after six months post-consolidation, but the mean percent change may remain of clinical significance. The NP volume did not seem to show significant changes in response to uVMD.

Abstract	Background: Appropriate, progressive trainee autonomy is critical for training competent plastic surgeons who are adequately prepared to enter independent practice. Evaluation and reporting of meaningful operative autonomy among trainees in plastic surgery are understudied. Methods: Parallel survey instruments were developed using the Zwisch metric for progressive operative autonomy and distributed electronically to trainees and faculties in all accredited training programs. Trainees were queried about their operative autonomy in 17 core plastic surgery procedures, associated approach to logging cases, and perceived readiness to enter practice. Faculties provided assessment of their final-year trainees using the same metrics. Results: Trainees in 28 programs and faculties in 35 programs participated. Final-year trainees reported the most operative independence with breast tissue expander reconstruction and carpal tunnel release and the least with facelift and rhinoplasty. A mean of 40% of final-year trainees reached supervision only autonomy in the procedures queried; none achieved this with rhinoplasty. Faculties identified the highest final-year trainee operative autonomy with botulinum toxin injection and burn excision and grafting; the least trainee independence was reported with rhinoplasty, cleft lip repair, and facelift. Faculty perception of final-year trainee autonomy was higher than that of trainees for 82% of procedures queried. Conclusions: Although plastic surgery trainees endorse gradual operative autonomy overall, a majority of final-year trainees do not perceive supervision only independence in the majority of core procedures queried. Faculties perceive higher trainee operative autonomy than trainees for most procedures. Discordant approaches to case logging were identified both among trainees and between trainees and faculties. Standardization may improve both progression and assessment of operative autonomy in plastic surgery training.

Abstract	Background: Skin graft donor site pain significantly affects pain management, narcotic use, and hospital length of stay. This study is intended to evaluate the efficacy of regional anesthesia in the burn population to decrease narcotic consumption and to assess the impact on hospitalization costs. Methods: PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and ScienceDirect were searched with the following inclusion criteria: comparative studies, adult populations, burn patients, autologous skin grafting, regional nerve blocks, and traditional narcotic regimens. Outcomes assessed included narcotic consumption, pain scores, and opioid side effects. Meta-analysis obtained pooled values for morphine consumption and side effects. Cost analysis was performed using published data in the literature. Results: Final analysis included 101 patients. Cumulative morphine consumption at 72 hours was lower for patients treated with regional anesthesia versus patient-controlled analgesia (PCA; single shot 25 ± 12 mg, continuous regional 23 ± 16 mg, control 91.5 ± 24.5 mg; Conclusion: Regional anesthesia at skin graft donor sites significantly decreases narcotic consumption in burn patients. Regional anesthesia is cost-effective, decreases side effects, and may result in shorter hospital stays due to improved pain management.

Abstract	Current treatment for volumetric muscle loss is limited to muscle transfer or acellular collagen scaffold (ACS) therapies that are associated with donor site morbidity and nonfunctional fibrosis, respectively. The aim of this study is to assess the utility of amniotic membrane scaffold (AMS) for volumetric muscle loss treatment. Methods: Murine quadriceps defects were created and randomized to three groups (n = 5/group): untreated controls, ACS, and AMS. In vivo muscle regeneration volume was quantified by MRI and microcomputed tomography. Muscle explants were analyzed using standard histology and whole-mount immunofluorescence at 8 weeks. Results: The cross-sectional muscle regeneration ratio was 0.64 ± 0.3 for AMS, 0.48 ± 0.07 for ACS, and 0.4 0 ± 0.03 for controls as assessed by MRI ( Conclusion: AMS mediated muscle healing was characterized by increased cellular infiltration and organized muscle formation when compared with controls and ACS.

Abstract	Background: The Open Payments database was created to increase transparency of industry payment relationships within medicine. The current literature often examines only 1 year of the database. In this study, the authors use 5 years of data to show trends among industry payments to plastic surgeons from 2014 to 2018. In addition, the authors lay out the basics of conflict-of-interest reporting for the new plastic surgeon. Finally, the authors suggest an algorithm for the responsible management of industry relationships. Methods: This study analyzed nonresearch payments made to plastic surgeons from January 1, 2014, to December 31, 2018. Descriptive statistics were calculated using R Statistical Software and visualized using Tableau. Results: A total of 304,663 payments totaling $140,889,747 were made to 8148 plastic surgeons; 41 percent ($58.28 million) was paid to 50 plastic surgeons in the form of royalty or license payments. With royalties excluded, average and median payments were $276 and $25. The average yearly total per physician was $2028. Of the 14 payment categories, 95 percent of the total amount paid was attributable payments in one of six categories. Seven hundred thirty companies reported payments to plastic surgeons from 2014 to 2018; 15 companies (2 percent) were responsible for 80 percent ($66.34 million) of the total sum paid. Allergan was responsible for $24.45 million (29.6 percent) of this amount. Conclusions: Although discussions on the proper management of industry relationships continue to evolve, the data in this study illustrate the importance of managing industry relationships. The simple guidelines suggested create a basis for managing industry relationships in the career of the everyday plastic surgeon.

Abstract	Background and aims: Mucosal closure adds time but reduces adverse events associated with endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). We aimed to assess the closure time (CT), technical success, and cost-effectiveness between a novel through-the-scope helix tack suture system (TTSS) and the over-the-scope suturing system (OTSS). Methods: In this single-center, prospective, randomized trial, all patients undergoing ESD with anticipated closure were randomized 1:1 to TTSS (study group) or OTSS (control group). Primary outcomes were CT and overall CT (OCT; CT + setup time). Secondary outcomes were rates of technical success, adverse events, and cost-effectiveness. Results: Forty patients were randomized to OTSS (n = 20) or TTSS (n = 20). OTSS and TTSS groups were similar with respect to age, gender, proportion of colorectal polyps, proximal colon polyps, and mean size of the resected specimen (40.9 mm vs 40.4 mm). The mean CT was 18.4 minutes for OTSS and 23.3 minutes for TTSS (P = .36). The mean OCT was 32 minutes for OTSS and 39.5 minutes for TTSS (P = .36). Closure with a primary device was successful in 17 cases (85%) with OTSS and 18 cases (90%) with TTSS (P = .63). No closure-related intraprocedural adverse events or delayed perforations were noted. Mean cost of closure was significantly lower in the TTSS group for lesions <35 mm (P = .008). Conclusions: TTSS was not found to be superior to OTSS with respect to CT and technical and clinical success for closure of gastric and colorectal ESD defects. TTSS is more cost-effective for closure of lesions <35 mm. (Clinical trial registration number: NCT04925271.).

Abstract	Background: Plastic surgery evaluates residents on milestones. This study defines a model of education including pre and post-test assessments paired with didactics intended for evaluating residents in the unique technical skills of craniofacial surgery. Methods: At the first institution, instrument identification, and time/accuracy of burr hole placement, craniotomy, and plating on Saw Bones Craniofacial Models were tested before and after a 7.5-hour craniofacial orthognathic surgery workshop. At the second institution, this was refined, removing plating, eliminating assessment of timing, and shortening didactics to standard osteotomies, instrument names, and common surgical approaches. The study population consisted of junior, mid-level, and senior residents on 2 different University craniofacial services. Results: Participant performance was analyzed by level of training: junior, midlevel and senior resident. In the first iteration, resident times improved significantly for all 4 tasks (P = 0.008, 0.035, 0.035, 0.016). Resident accuracy improved significantly for instrument naming (P = 0.003). Except for instrument naming, resident year did not impact improvement (timing: P = 0.062, 0.310, 0.125, 0.334; accuracy: P = 0.029, 0.664, 0.717, 0.306). In the second iteration, resident accuracy improved for all tasks (instrument naming P = 0.00002, burr holes P = 0.0031, craniotomy P = 0.08). There was no difference in rate of improvement between resident cohorts. Conclusion: The task-based assessment with resident education on basic craniofacial surgery skills, standard osteotomies, and instrument names directed resident learning and assessed resident knowledge. With the removal of time as a metric, all tasks improved in accuracy. The craniofacial skills task-assessment successfully evaluated milestone attainment in a reproducible model.
