Its current impact on Canadian plastic surgeons is unknown. We aim to review the impact of medicolegal complaints and provide advice for surgeons on how to prevent, minimize, and navigate through the medicolegal process. <b>Method:</b> An anonymous survey was sent to registered Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada certified plastic surgeon members. The survey collected data on surgeon demographics (clinical status, gender, practice type, volume), medicolegal complaint history and outcome, impact on practice, and insights into the process. Surgeons with an inactive practice and invalid contact information were excluded. <b>Results:</b> Out of 456 invited plastic surgeons, 100 responses were included, 73% were male, with an even distribution of practice types and years in practice. Most were Canadian Medical Protective Association (CMPA) members. A significant portion (62%) had been named in a medicolegal action, primarily related to treatment complications (42%) and poor outcomes/disease progression (34%). Factors associated with complaints were greater years in practice (<i>P</i><.01), and a higher annual volume of operating room cases (<i>P</i>=.02). The duration of the medicolegal process varied, with the majority taking 1-2 years. Respondents predominantly agreed that CMPA provided adequate legal defence (83%, 53/64). However, most surgeons felt the process had a significantly negative impact on their mental health (75%, 48/64). After being involved in a complaint, many surgeons modified their practice pattern by increasing documentation/consent process (45%, 29/64), avoiding certain procedures (22%, 14/64), and avoiding care of high-risk patients (19%, 12/64). <b>Conclusion:</b> Despite legal resolution in favour of the physicians, the results of this survey indicate the medicolegal complaint process has a significant impact on plastic surgeons' practices, time, and mental health.

In surgical fields, where precision and timely decision-making are crucial, AI's integration could revolutionize clinical quality and health resource optimization. This study explores the current and future applications of AI technologies in reconstructive breast surgery, aiming for broader implementation. <b>Methods:</b> We conducted systematic reviews through PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar using relevant keywords and MeSH terms. The focus was on the main AI subdisciplines: machine learning, computer vision, natural language processing, and robotics. This review includes studies discussing AI applications across preoperative, intraoperative, postoperative, and academic settings in breast plastic surgery. <b>Results:</b> AI is currently utilized preoperatively to predict surgical risks and outcomes, enhancing patient counseling and informed consent processes. During surgery, AI supports the identification of anatomical landmarks and dissection strategies and provides 3-dimensional visualizations. Robotic applications are promising for procedures like microsurgical anastomoses, flap harvesting, and dermal matrix anchoring. Postoperatively, AI predicts discharge times and customizes follow-up schedules, which improves resource allocation and patient management at home. Academically, AI offers personalized training feedback to surgical trainees and aids research in breast reconstruction. Despite these advancements, concerns regarding privacy, costs, and operational efficacy persist and are critically examined in this review. <b>Conclusions:</b> The application of AI in breast plastic and reconstructive surgery presents substantial benefits and diverse potentials. However, much remains to be explored and developed. This study aims to consolidate knowledge and encourage ongoing research and development within the field, thereby empowering the plastic surgery community to leverage AI technologies effectively and responsibly for advancing breast reconstruction surgery.</p>","PeriodicalId":20206,"journal":{"name":"Plastic surgery","volume":" ","pages":"22925503241292349"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11559540/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142626037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
