Patients were evaluated 6 months after surgery for functional and cosmetic outcomes.

Rates of radiation oncologist-reported fair or poor cosmetic outcomes are higher with brachytherapy.

A questionnaire evaluated satisfaction, cosmetic outcomes for surgery and PDT.

Meanwhile, patients were very satisfied with the cost and cosmetic outcomes of the combination treatment.

Functional and cosmetic outcomes were acceptable and comparable to previous reports of traditional expander-based reconstructions.

Here we performed a stratified analysis of patient-subjective cosmetic outcomes during the stages of breast reconstruction.

Objectives: The authors assess postoperative functional and cosmetic outcomes of acellular dermis-assisted breast reconstruction with crescentric tissue expansion.

Approximately, 71% of patients had excellent cosmetic outcomes.

IORT allowed breast irradiation treatment to be performed without effecting overlying skin, thus cosmetic outcomes tended to be favorable.

The primary objective is to evaluate the clinical, oncological and cosmetic outcomes following volume replacement in patients undergoing oncoplastic breast-conserving surgery.

Background: Newer transoral thyroidectomy techniques that aim to avoid scars in the neck and maximize cosmetic outcomes have become more prevalent.

Conclusion: Minimally invasive video-assisted parathyroidectomy for primary hyperparathyroidism is feasible, safe and effective intervention that improves early postoperative course and cosmetic outcomes.

Further work is needed to explore the comparative patient-reported and cosmetic outcomes of the different approaches, and to establish long-term oncological safety.

There has been increasing attention to decreasing incisional morbidity and improving cosmetic outcomes in laparoscopic surgery by using fewer and smaller ports.

This study aims to determine if cosmetic outcomes play an important role for patients undergoing bariatric surgery, when considering a surgical approach.

Conclusion: The type C incision is superior with regard to the cost and cosmetic outcomes, because fewer of these patients request postoperative NAC-P.
