Wang, Z.-C. Dou, J. Yue, K.-Q. ZhiAbstractEndoscopically-assisted partial parotidectomy for benign tumours has been reported, but we have evaluated its feasibility through different concealed incisions compared with conventional parotidectomy. A total of 124 patients with parotid tumours were enrolled in...

Background: Smile Train, an international children's charity committed to improving cleft care around the world, empowers local medical professionals in developing countries to provide quality comprehensive cleft care in their own communities. As part of their sustainable model, Smile Train developed a web-based, interactive virtual simulator to improve surgical training of cleft procedures for surgeons around the world, replicating the anatomical and technical steps involved in cleft surgery....
Background: Chainsaw and circular-saw injuries represent a rare condition within the maxillofacial region. The purpose of this clinical report is to describe the injuries and the clinical and surgical management of these rare traumas. Methods: In this clinical report, 11 patients, presenting themselves to the emergency room in the hospital “Policlinico Le Scotte,” Siena, from March 2016 to September 2017 with severe chainsaw and circular-saw injuries, were included. All of the patients underwent...
Background: An anterior palatal fistula in a bilateral cleft lip and palate is a challenging clinical dilemma. The authors evaluate the feasibility and outcomes of the reconstruction of large anterior palatal fistulae using anteriorly based dorsal tongue flaps. Methods: Eight patients with anterior palatal fistulae after repair of a bilateral cleft lip and palate using anteriorly based dorsal tongue flaps. The defect size varied from 1.0 × 1.0 cm to 1.5 × 2.0 cm, and the tongue flap size...
Objective: The aim of the study was to assess different radiologic bony landmarks for endoscopic localization of the sphenopalatine foramen (SPF). Methods: Paranasal computed tomography (CT) scans of adults without sinonasal pathology were included. On axial cuts, the anteroposterior distances from the SPF to maxillary line, anterior head of the middle turbinate, basal lamella of the middle turbinate, choanal arch, and posterior fontanel of the maxillary sinus ostium were measured. While...
Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of nasal surgery in the upper airway (UA) collapse using drug induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) in a group of patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods: Prospective cohort of patients treated with nasal surgery between 2015 and 2016. All patients were diagnosed with mild to severe OSAHS. The inclusion criteria were age between 18 and 70 years, apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) higher than 15, and septal deviation....
Autologous free fat graft is a widely accepted method of facial contour restoration in Parry-Romberg syndrome (PRS); however, complex and unpredictable facial anatomy can render this surgery extremely challenging. The integration of 3-dimensional (3D) technology strategies as a method to enhance surgical aesthetic outcomes has been demonstrated. A retrospective chart review was performed for PRS with autologous, free fat graft between 2016 and 2017. Based on 3D volumetric facial analysis and presurgical...
Background: Chronic inflammation in the lacrimal sac may lead to thickening of the surrounding bony tissues. This study aimed to assess the thickness of lacrimal bone surrounding the lacrimal sac, and the thickness of maxilla, based on the presence of purulent secretion in the lacrimal sac in patients who underwent EDCR. Material and Methods: Lacrimal bone thickness and the maximum and midpoint maxillary bone thickness of 70 patients (mean age of 49.07 years) who underwent EDCR, were assessed...
Introduction: Flap surgery is one of the most commonly used techniques of reconstructive surgery for effective repair of damaged tissue. Optimal anesthetic technique and anesthetic agent plays an important role in flap perfusion. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine infusion on the microcirculation in the cremaster muscle flap by direct in vivo monitoring. Materials and Methods: We randomly divided 9 Wistar albino rats into 3 groups. The rats in the control group underwent...
Background: Shape of the tip is supplied by lower lateral cartilages (LLC) which are divided into 3 crura each composed of 2 segments divided by junction lines (JL). Tip restoration becomes more complicated with the presence of angulation deformities (AD) over LLC. It is aimed to classify AD based on their relationship to JL, to clarify their causes of the formation and to discuss restoration techniques for each of them. Material and Methods: Between 2016 and 2018, 375 primary rhinoplasties...
Introduction: Over the past decade, some studies have focused on whether platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can promote the survival of fat grafts after transplantation. However, the results of these studies have been controversial because of the variations in research methods and assessment methodologies. Methods: In this study, the authors aspirated fat particles from the abdomen of a healthy woman, mixed them with PRP, and injected them into the backs of nude mice subcutaneously, which simulates...
Objective: The authors aimed to determine the changes in the odor threshold and sinonasal outcome test-22 scores of the patients after septoplasty surgery in terms of nasal septum deviation classifications. Methods: Forty-nine patients with nasal septum deviation, aged between 17 and 65, were included in our study. The sinonasal outcome test-22 scores questionnaire and the N-Butanol Threshold test were administered to the patients, 2 days before and 2 months after the septoplasty. Results:...

Background: Reduction malarplasty, popular among Asians, is currently performed preferably via the intraoral approach. However, to prevent complications such as malunion and cheek drooping, a rigid fixation is essential to compensate for the action of the masseter. Accordingly, the authors aimed to perform an experimental study on the optimal fixation location during intraoral reduction malarplasty using an L-shaped osteotomy. Methods: Fixation points that are not difficult to access during...
Objectives: There are multiple nasal airway pathologies leading to upper airway obstruction, and one of the most common ones is nasal septum deviation (NSD). Our study aimed to evaluate the effect of nasal septal surgery in patients with NSD on ventricular arrhythmogenesis using the novel electrocardiographic parameters, Tp-e interval, and Tp-e/QT ratio. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study included 102 consecutive patients diagnosed with NSD. All participants completed a validated...
This study aimed to investigate the clinical efficacy of intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring regarding the perioperative management of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI). This was a cohort study performed between Jan 2013 and Jan 2016 and included all patients with sTBI. All patients were split into ICP monitoring and non-ICP monitoring groups. The primary outcomes were in-hospital mortality and Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) scores 6 months after injury, whereas the secondary outcomes...
We reported a 16-year-old patient with chin defect accompanying micrognathia and airway stenosis owing to a traffic accident. The treatment of this patient involved a modified genioplasty associated with orthognathic surgeries. Through data analysis, we found that the patient's facial morphology and airway space are greatly improved compared with preoperation: y-axis(T4-T1) = −4.5 degree; FCA (T4-T1) = −18 degree; CSAmin(T4-T1) = 227 mm2. In conclusion, the modified genioplasty associated with orthognathic...
Background: Maxillofacial injuries in children are rarer in proportion in comparison to adult facial injuries, and they constitute 1% to 15% of all facial bone fractures. The causes and incidence of maxillofacial injuries in children differ based on social, cultural, and environmental factors. Aim: The purpose of this study is to investigate the etiology, epidemiology, and type of injury in pediatric facial injuries, as well as analyzing types of fractures, related injuries, and treatment...
