    Abstract Background: Machine learning, a subset of artificial intelligence, is a set of models and methods that can automatically detect patterns in vast amounts of data, extract information and use it to perform various kinds of decision-making under uncertain conditions. This can assist surgeons in clinical decision-making by identifying patient cohorts that will benefit from surgery prior to treatment. The aim of this review is to evaluate the applications of machine learning in plastic and reconstructive surgery.
    Methods: A literature review will be undertaken of EMBASE, MEDLINE and CENTRAL (1990 up to September 2019) to identify studies relevant for the review. Studies in which machine learning has been employed in the clinical setting of plastic surgery will be included. Primary outcomes will be the evaluation of the accuracy of machine learning models in predicting a clinical diagnosis and post-surgical outcomes. Secondary outcomes will include a cost analysis of those models. This protocol has been prepared using the Preferred Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines.
    Discussion: This will be the first systematic review in available literature that summarises the published work on the applications of machine learning in plastic surgery. Our findings will provide the basis of future research in developing artificial intelligence interventions in the specialty.

    Abstract Vascularised epiphysial fibula bone transfers in the paediatric population provides a solution to growth suppression in extremity reconstruction. We report a case of an anatomical variant to the epiphysial blood supply that has never been reported in literature. A 6-year-old girl underwent a free vascularised fibula flap for reconstruction of her right humerous following osteosarcoma resection. While identifying and dissecting the recurrent epiphysial branch, a large branch from the peroneal artery was identified which directly entered the head of the fibula. No dominant supply from the anterior tibial (AT) vessels to the head of the fibula was seen. This led to the need for a bipedicled flap with diaphyseal supply from the AT vessels and the epiphysial transfer based on the peroneal artery. The patient made an uneventful recovery from the procedure. The same technique may be used by surgeons that may encounter this unique variant in clinical practice.

    Abstract Introduction: Machine learning (ML) is a set of models and methods that can detect patterns in vast amounts of data and use this information to perform various kinds of decision-making under uncertain conditions. This review explores the current role of this technology in plastic surgery by outlining the applications in clinical practice, diagnostic and prognostic accuracies, and proposed future direction for clinical applications and research.
    Methods: EMBASE, MEDLINE, CENTRAL and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched from 1990 to 2020. Any clinical studies (including case reports) which present the diagnostic and prognostic accuracies of machine learning models in the clinical setting of plastic surgery were included. Data collected were clinical indication, model utilised, reported accuracies, and comparison with clinical evaluation.
    Results: The database identified 1181 articles, of which 51 articles were included in this review. The clinical utility of these algorithms was to assist clinicians in diagnosis prediction (n=22), outcome prediction (n=21) and pre-operative planning (n=8). The mean accuracy is 88.80%, 86.11% and 80.28% respectively. The most commonly used models were neural networks (n=31), support vector machines (n=13), decision trees/random forests (n=10) and logistic regression (n=9).
    Conclusions: ML has demonstrated high accuracies in diagnosis and prognostication of burn patients, congenital or acquired facial deformities, and in cosmetic surgery. There are no studies comparing ML to clinician's performance. Future research can be enhanced using larger datasets or utilising data augmentation, employing novel deep learning models, and applying these to other subspecialties of plastic surgery.

    Abstract The use of prophylactic antibiotics in the context of septorhinoplasty (SRP) is a frequently debated topic among plastic surgeons. Most surgeons routinely use antibiotics to prevent the dreaded physical and psychological morbidity of postoperative infections, although this practice is controversial. With antimicrobial resistance becoming a global threat, however, optimizing antibiotic prescribing is essential. The current evidence would suggest that the rate of postoperative infection is low and routine antibiotic use is unnecessary in SRP surgery. Rates range from 0.5 to 2% in simple SRP surgery, majority of which are minor nasal infections which respond to oral antibiotics and do not require hospital admission. In cases of complex SRP, defined as revision cases or where grafts or implants have been utilized, infection rates can be much higher with an incidence of 7 to 11%, and as such utilization of antibiotics is reasonable. When considering the regime to be utilized, a single preoperative dose of intravenous antibiotics has the same efficacy in reducing the incident of postoperative infection as a postoperative 7-day course of oral antibiotics. In the authors' practice, all patients receive a single intravenous dose of antibiotics on induction, and in the case of utilization of a graft from a nonnasal site, this is complimented with an oral course of postoperative antibiotics. With this approach, infections rates are at the lowest range of available published literature.

    Abstract Reconstructive options in nonmelanomatous skin tumors of the head and neck region are limited in the frail, elderly patient group, where split skin thickness or full thickness grafts may not be a viable option. This study examines the use decellularized cadaveric dermis (DCELL), an acellular dermis product produced in the United Kingdom for the reconstruction of these skin defects. This was a single-center, prospective study of patients undergoing single stage wide local excision of nonmelanomatous skin cancer and reconstruction with decellularized dermis. Our inclusion criteria included any patient that required a curative excision but had risk factors where conventional local flap or free tissue transfer could have a potential adverse outcome. Thirty-seven wounds were treated with DCELL in 31 patients. Mean age was 81.6 years (range 61-94 years) and at the time of operation, 25 patients (80.7%) were ASA 3 or above. The scalp was the most common anatomical area operated on (

    Abstract Injuries to the extensor mechanism of the hand and forearm are common and cause significant functional disability. Complete tendon lacerations are managed with surgical repair, whereas selected partial tendon injuries may be managed without repair but with splinting and physiotherapy alone. There is limited evidence to support the management of partial lacerations, in particular the decision of whether to repair or not. We aimed to systematically review the literature to determine the optimal management of partial extensor tendon lacerations in the hand and forearm. A protocol for the systematic review was developed prospectively and registered with PROSPERO (CRD42021250431). PubMed, EMBASE, clinicaltrials.gov, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) were searched from 1990 to 27/05/2022. 4565 studies were screened, of which 88 underwent full text review. Five studies were included, one randomised control trial and four cohort studies. One study examined outcomes of partial lacerations treated without repair; the other four studies examined outcomes following repair. Pinch and grip strength and time to return to work were similar regardless of management. Adverse outcomes were reported for patients undergoing surgical repair; none were observed in those managed without repair. Meta-analysis was precluded by study heterogeneity and high risk of bias. There is limited evidence to support the management of partial extensor tendon lacerations, with some low-quality evidence that non-operative management of selected partial lacerations is safe. There is a pressing need for pragmatic, multicentre randomised trials to assess the cost-effectiveness of current treatments.
