Autologous Costal Cartilage Harvesting and Donor-Site Pain in Patients Undergoing Rhinoplasty —Reply
In Reply We read the letter by Lu and Fan regarding our recently published article. We are happy with the authors ’ interest, praise, and the discussions they’ve contributed. Although the technique has been widely used and reported by many influential authors, we agree with the opinion of Lu and Fan that monopolar electrocautery (ME) causes tissue damage and prolongs wound healing. Nevertheless, we don’t think it is an interference factor for this study because the major aim of what we are investigating is thedownside of ME in that aspect. (Source: JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery)

Autologous Costal Cartilage Harvesting Technique and Donor-Site Pain in Patients Undergoing Rhinoplasty
To the Editor We read with great interest the article by Özücer et al. The authors did well to compare the postoperative donor-site pain in patients who underwent costal cartilage harvest, and the separated evaluation of resting pain and movement pain is thoughtful and exquisitely considered and worthy of praise. In this communication, we would like to propose some discussions with the authors. (Source: JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery)

Limitations, Transparency, and Conclusions —Reply
In Reply We thank Bornemann-Cimenti and Szilagyi for their interest in our study on complications related to anesthesia duration in head and neck microvascular reconstructive surgery. The intent of the study was to see if anesthesia duration was at all related to complications in long microvascular reconstructive surgical procedures involving the head and neck. We postulated that longer duration of anesthesia might be correlated with an increased rate of complications in this particular type of surgery. (Source: JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery)

Limitations, Transparency, and Conclusions
To the Editor With great interest, we read the recent article by Brady et al. The authors present an association of anesthesia duration in free flap surgery with postoperative complications. Based on their findings that anesthesia duration is an independent risk factor for complications, they conclude that “… reduced anesthesia time, particularly to less than 11 hours, should be the goal….” Everyone involved in the treatment of these patients will sign this statement. However, we want to raise some questions about why we are not entirely in accord that this suggestion is supported by the prese nted data. (Source: J...

Review of Aesthetic Nasal Reconstruction: Principles and Practice
There are a limited number of people in our relatively broad subspecialty who have devoted their entire careers to a focused area, truly pioneering the way we approach and manage specific clinical problems in facial plastic surgery. There are even fewer who are so passionate about a specific topic that they have taken it upon themselves to share their knowledge and vast experience through extensive writing and publication, allowing this information to perpetuate and help others in our field grow and learn from their successes and their mistakes.
