When reconstructing a lateral alar defect of the nose, satisfactory aesthetic and functional results are difficult to achieve through a single-stage surgery alone. Here the authors describe a new innovative surgical technique using a superiorly based folded nasolabial flap through a single-stage surgery alone. An 85-year-old male patient visited plastic surgery clinic with sudden enlargement of a mass 3 or 4 days before the visit. On the basis of the biopsy test results, a diagnosis of basal cell...

Introduction: Fractures of the zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) represent an extremely heterogeneous group of injuries to the midfacial skeleton. Traditionally, the diagnosis of such fractures was based on 2-dimensional radiograms and, more recently, on volumetric computed tomography (CT) scans, while the treatment was exclusively based on the surgeon's experience. Many classification attempts have been made in the past, but no paper has taken into account the importance of virtual surgical...

Background: Distraction osteogenesis and conventional bimaxillary orthognathic surgery have been performed for the treatment of midfacial hypoplasia for a long time. However, the effect of these 2 techniques on the maxilla, mandible, and whole-facial profile is significantly different. In this study, we aimed to measure the pre- to post-treatment changes in maxillary prominence, mandible size, and facial length and compare them between these 2 techniques to inform selection of the best technique....

A cleft lip, palate, and alveolus is one of the most common birth defects. Depending on the type of cleft, multiple surgeries may be required throughout the growth stage. Traditionally, an orthodontic-surgical approach has been adopted to treat maxillary retrusion. Osteodistraction it is the surgical choice in patients with severe midface retrusion that require maxillary advancement. Our objective is to present our experience using this orthodontic and surgical approach. Address correspondence...

The lateral sinus lift procedure has been extensively investigated and described as a reliable surgical solution aimed at facilitating implant placement and rehabilitation when the posterior upper maxilla is atrophic. The standard technique consists in a lateral antrostomy, the careful raising of the sinus membrane, and following apposition of a bone substitute between the membrane and the sinus floor. The present technical note illustrates a new conservative technique enabling lateral sinus lift...

Open reduction followed by internal fixation (ORIF) has been regarded as the most effective technique for surgical repair of zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fractures. However, the ideal internal fixation method to achieve stable reduction remains controversial. This research aims to assess and compare the stability of the 2- and 3-point screw-plate fixation methods using finite element method (FEM). Based on computed tomography (CT), the finite element models of 2-point (ZFS + IOR) and 3-point...

The intricate and delicate structure of the periorbital region, particularly in pediatric patients, presents challenges to eyelid reconstruction. Much like the more common lower eyelid ectropion, upper eyelid ectropion can result from lack of tissue, scar contracture, or over-resection as in blepharoplasty. In burns and trauma, the cause of cicatricial ectropion is typically direct scar contracture from injuries to the eyelid. However, in some cases, extrinsic wounds involving contracture to the...

Background: Cleft palate is a common craniofacial malformation, requiring surgical repair in late infancy or early toddlerhood. Postoperative use of opioids is common to mitigate pain following palatoplasty. To decrease opioid consumption, improve postoperative pain, and decrease complications associated with general anesthetics, intraoperative regional nerve blocks have been employed for multimodal pain relief. While the literature supports intraoperative nerve block use for postprocedural...

Objective: Craniosynostosis can be associated with raised intracranial pressure (ICP), which can pose deleterious effects on the brain and vision if untreated. Estimating ICP in children is challenging, whilst gold standard direct intracranial measurement of ICP is invasive and carries risk. This systematic review aims to evaluate the role of optical coherence tomography (OCT), a noninvasive imaging technique, for detecting raised ICP in children with craniosynostosis. Methods: The...

Epidermal or epidermoid cysts are one of the most frequent benign masses at the subepidermal level. They are typically smooth, movable, and fluctuant masses covered with stratified squamous epithelium. They rarely grow to a huge size, and only a few cases have been reported. A 69-year-old woman visited the authors’ clinic for treatment of a well-defined huge mass in the right temporoparietal and occipital regions of the scalp that had regrown and spontaneously increased in size after excision 30...

Precise volumetric evaluation of the alveolar cleft facilitates accurate preparation of bone substitutes and reduces donor site morbidity. This study investigates 2 advanced presurgical volumetric assessment methods that use computer-aided engineering (CAE) software. Preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans from 20 unilateral alveolar cleft patients undergoing secondary alveolar bone grafting (SABG) were analyzed by CAE software. Cleft defect volumes were calculated using the mirror-reversed technique...

Posterior cranial vault distraction is an important modality in the management of craniosynostosis. This surgical technique increases intracranial volume and improves cranial aesthetics. A single procedure is often inadequate in patients with complex multisuture craniosynostosis, as some will go on to develop intracranial hypertension despite the operation. Considering the negative effects of intracranial hypertension, some patients may warrant 2 planned distractions to prevent this scenario from...

Alar cartilage anatomically determines the size, position, and shape of the nose type. It is also effective in the respiratory function of the nose. The structure of alar cartilage differs from person to person. Congenital anomalies of the nose due to absence of alar cartilage are extremely rare. Usually, trauma and infections are blamed for etiology. The absence of nasal alar cartilage causes both aesthetically nasal deformities and respiratory dysfunction problems. In the literature, congenital...
