Open reduction with internal fixation (ORIF) for facial fractures has frequently been associated with the occurrence of surgical site infections (SSIs). Perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis is customarily recommended for ORIF. Thus, the comparison of two different antibiotic regimens (i.e., single-dose and prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis) concerning the rate and severity of SSIs in facial fracture patients undergoing ORIF was the main purpose of this study. This retrospective analysis included patients who underwent ORIF for facial fractures...

The vastus lateralis muscle is one of the four muscles that make up the quadriceps femoris muscle, and it is also the largest of them. Some studies have shown that patients experience lower quality of life and muscle weakness after surgical treatment of thigh muscles in order to perform reconstructive surgery of the head and neck. The aim of our study was to assess the quantitative and qualitative function of the lower extremities using an isokinetic dynamometer and a validated questionnaire on subjective difficulties in patients who underwent reconstructive surgery with the vastus lateralis free flap...
