Increasing Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System Durability and Retention in Facelift Surgery Open
Background: Facelift surgery remains the gold standard for facial rejuvenation, yet limitations such as suture pull-through failure, superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) laxity, and the need for secondary procedures persist. Althou…

Photochemical Tissue Passivation of Arteriovenous Grafts Prevents Long-Term Development of Intimal Hyperplasia in a Swine Model Open
PTP treatment to the external surface of the vein grafts decreases IH at 3 mo after arteriovenous grafting and may prevent future graft failure.

Abstract 98: Photochemical Tissue Passivation (PTP) Prevents Contracture of Full Thickness Wounds Open
PURPOSE: Large surface area wounds, resulting from burns, trauma, or iatrogenic injury, often result in significant scarring and wound contracture. Despite treatment with any of the currently available gold-standard therapies, contracture …

A Rare Case of Paraneoplastic Aortitis Associated with Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia Open
Aortitis is a broad term describing inflammation of the aorta. The most common causes of aortitis are the large-vessel vasculitides giant cell arteritis and Takayasu arteritis. Other etiologies include aortitis associated with other autoim…

Photochemical Tissue Passivation Reduces Vein Graft Intimal Hyperplasia in a Swine Model of Arteriovenous Bypass Grafting Open
Background Bypass grafting remains the standard of care for coronary artery disease and severe lower extremity ischemia. Efficacy is limited by poor long‐term venous graft patency secondary to intimal hyperplasia ( IH ) caused by venous in…

Eradication of multidrug‐resistant pseudomonas biofilm with pulsed electric fields Open
Biofilm formation is a significant problem, accounting for over eighty percent of microbial infections in the body. Biofilm eradication is problematic due to increased resistance to antibiotics and antimicrobials as compared to planktonic …
