The current concept of facial unit reconstruction has evolved from simple coverage of defects to the reconstruction of the 3-dimensional structure and delicate features. The reshaping of the middle third of the face, including the nose and cheek, remains a challenge for plastic surgeons due to its complex structure and the dynamic relationship between each part. In this article, the authors describe a clinical report of extensive facial burns with skin lesions in the middle third of the face. The 30-year-old female patient sustained burns throughout the full thickness of the skin burns on the entire nose and left cheek with hypertrophic scar...

European Reference Network (ERN) CRANIO is focused on optimizing care for patients with rare or complex craniofacial anomalies, including craniosynostosis and/or rare ear, nose, and throat disorders. The main goal of ERN CRANIO is to collect uniform data on treatment outcomes for multicenter comparison. We aimed to develop a reproducible and reliable suture-specific photo score that can be used for cross-center comparison of phenotypical severity of sagittal synostosis and aesthetic outcome of treatment. We conducted a retrospective study among nonsyndromic sagittal synostosis patients aged <19 years...

OBJECTIVES: For transwomen undergoing voice feminization interventions, fundamental frequency (F 0 ; vocal pitch) is a commonly reported functional outcome measure in the literature. However, F 0 may not correlate well with improvement in quality of life (QoL). Several validated voice-related QoL instruments have been used to assess QoL improvement in these patients, yet there is no consensus on the most appropriate instrument. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the relationship between change in F 0 and QoL improvement following voice feminization, and to compare validated QoL instruments commonly used in this population...

BACKGROUND: The application of the expanded forehead flap in nasal reconstruction has the advantage of being able to provide a sufficient amount of flap and can provide good aesthetic results. For an expanded forehead flap to survive, there must be adequate arterial supply and venous return. Despite this, limited studies have been conducted on preoperative vascular mapping and the design of the expanded forehead flap for nasal reconstruction. In this article, the authors present a technique of hand-held Doppler detection with light illumination for vascular mapping...

This study aimed to evaluate the use of tranexamic acid in craniomaxillofacial surgery by meta-analysis. A comprehensive search was performed for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) mainly in 3 electronic databases (PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library) before August 2022. We collected and managed data for weighted mean difference of intraoperative blood loss, transfusion requirement, and operation time for the study. A total of 13 randomized controlled trials were included in the analysis. Compared with the control group, the tranexamic acid group showed a reduction in intraoperative blood loss of 198...

BACKGROUND: A variety of techniques for alar base modification have been described in the literature. Limitations of these techniques include scars, recurrence, asymmetry, etc. An incorrect excision of the lateral alar wall can result in a tear-drop or Q-shaped deformity. OBJECTIVES: In this study, a modified V-Y advancement flap will be introduced that will avoid the complications discussed above as well as adjust the positional relationship between the nasal alar and the columella using this technique...

Polyglactin 910 (Vicryl) and polypropylene (Prolene) are common suture materials used in ophthalmic surgical procedures. However, there are limited studies assessing tissue reactions to different sutures in eyelid areas. In this study, these suture materials were used subcutaneously in 10 lateral canthi of 5 pigs. Clinical reactive score (CRS) was assessed 14 days and 60 days after surgery. On histology, subcutaneous tissue reactions were assessed by the presence of different inflammatory cells, and the aggregate tissue irritation score was calculated...

ABSTRACT: Repair of lower conjunctival fornix retraction is a great challenge for plastic surgeons in the aspects of orbital prosthesis retaining and cosmetic appearance. Hereby, a 25-year-old woman, suffering from lower conjunctival fornix retraction after the removal of retinoblastoma and radiotherapy, was undertaking the treatment with an improved reverse postauricular island flap for expansion of the lower conjunctival fornix, and volume augmentation of the anophthalmic socket in one stage...

BACKGROUND: There exists a paucity of large-scale, multi-institutional studies that investigate the outcomes of surgery for Bell's palsy (BP). Here, we utilize a large, multi-institutional database to study the risk factors and early-stage outcomes following surgical procedures in BP. METHODS: We reviewed the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database (2008-2019) to identify patients who underwent surgery for the diagnosis of BP...

BACKGROUND: Wormian bones also known as sutural bones are asymmetrical and shapeless bones occurring in cranial sutures and fontanelle of the skull. Their incidence is reported to vary in population. The exact etiology is debatable, but their formation is under the control of both genetic and environmental factors and has great anthropological and clinical implications related to the cranium. Due to high clinical relevance of Wormian bones, the study was carried out. The aim of the study is to expound the incidence and topography of Wormian bones along with clinical significance in dry adult skulls of Indian origin...

BACKGROUND: Ameloblastoma is a benign neoplasm composed of epithelial tissue with invasive and infiltrative behavior at the local level and a high recurrence rate, with various histopathologic patterns and clinical forms. Approximately 85% of conventional ameloblastomas occur in the mandible, most often in the body, angle, and ascending ramus area. The treatment modalities include both conservative and radical treatments. Postoperative follow-up is most important in the treatment of ameloblastoma...

BACKGROUND: A crooked nose is an external nose deformity predominantly caused by congenital aplasia or acquired secondary to trauma or surgery, often accompanied by a deviated nasal septum. Patients with crooked nose have dual needs to improve both esthetic and functional problems. METHODS: The clinical and photographic information of 48 patients diagnosed with a crooked nose and nasal septum deviation treated from January 2018 to January 2022 was acquired. The morphology and functional effects were investigated by evaluating the general condition of the operation, measuring the esthetic indexes of the nose, and subjectively scoring...

OBJECTIVE: Microsurgery has made great contributions to the advancement of surgery. In parallel with the developments in microsurgery, various techniques have been developed to perfect the technique. Microvascular anastomotic coupler device (MACD) is one of these techniques. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of anastomoses created by using hand-sewn microsurgery (HSM) and MACD. METHODS: Twenty male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 250 to 300 g were divided into 2 groups randomly...

Maxillary osteotomies as a component of orthognathic surgery disrupt the normal anatomy and function of the sinus. The osteotomy with advancement of the inferior component of the sinus leaves a bony and mucosal opening in the sinus. Immediately after surgery, nasal drainage is impeded because of intranasal swelling. Acute and chronic maxillary sinusitis would be expected; however, its incidence as an expected complication is not well documented. A systematic review and meta-analysis was completed using PubMed to determine the incidence of sinusitis after maxillary orthognathic surgery...
