A comparison of facial contour and patient-reported outcomes following zygomatic implant perforated (ZIP) flaps and fibular osseous flaps for maxillary reconstruction.
The zygomatic implant perforated (ZIP) flap is an alternative to the fibular free flap (FFF) for maxillary reconstruction with dental rehabilitation. The aim of this study was to compare facial contour and patient-reported outcomes in match…

A comparison of preoperative soft tissue contour versus bone accuracy as a predictor of quality of life outcomes in osseous free flap jaw reconstruction using occlusal-based virtual surgical planning.
[OBJECTIVES] Occlusal-based virtual surgical planning (VSP) prioritises the placement of endosseous dental implants, over replicating native bone contour. This may compromise facial aesthetics. This study aimed to compare function and healt…

What is the force required to treat trismus in patients undergoing oral cavity free flap reconstruction?
[BACKGROUND] Trismus therapy is often delayed after jaw reconstruction to avoid hardware failure or non-union. The aim of this study is to document the forces that have been applied to patients undergoing free flap reconstruction of the ora…

Neutralizing chimeric heavy-chain antibody targeting the L-HN domain of Clostridium botulinum neurotoxin type F.
Botulinum toxin (BoNT) from Clostridium botulinum is the most toxic biotoxin known and is also an important bioterrorism agent. After poisoning, the only effective treatment is injection of antitoxin. However, neutralizing nanoantibodies ar…

Virtual reality digital surgical planning for jaw reconstruction: a usability study.
[BACKGROUND] Digital surgical planning (DSP) has revolutionized the preparation and execution of the management of complex head and neck pathologies. The addition of virtual reality (VR) allows the surgeon to have a three-dimensional experi…

Expanding the digital workflow for a prefabricated prelaminated fibula flap: A dental technique.
The workflow for a prefabricated prelaminated fibula free flap has been almost entirely digitized. One of the last 2 remaining steps is the impression making in stage 1 surgery. This article describes a novel computed-tomography based digit…

Clinical application of 3-dimensional tissue volume assessment using CloudCompare.
Adjunctive procedures, including autologous fat grafting and surgical debulking, may be required to optimise facial contours following maxillomandibular reconstruction. A standardised method for the quantitative analysis of volumetric chang…

Health-related quality of life in maxillectomy patients undergoing dentoalveolar rehabilitation.
[OBJECTIVES] Surgical resection of the maxilla impairs aesthetics, speech, swallowing, and mastication. Maxillary reconstruction is increasingly performed with virtual surgical planning (VSP) to enhance functional dental rehabilitation with…

Institutional-based and commercial virtual surgical planning in maxillomandibular reconstruction - Comparing the digital plan and postoperative scan.
[BACKGROUND] Virtual surgical planning (VSP) is increasingly used in maxillomandibular osseous free flap reconstruction. Non-commercial ('in-house') VSP may offer the same level of accuracy and other benefits, without the inflated costs and…

"Surgical technique: A novel pedicled periosteal scapular flap to facilitate bone growth in an Ovine model".
[BACKGROUND] Vascularised periosteum can used for reconstructing bony defects due to its intrinsic osteogenic properties. This osteogenic potential can be harnessed as a vascularised flap to induce bone growth of complex constructs in-vivo.…

Hydrogel: A Potential Material for Bone Tissue Engineering Repairing the Segmental Mandibular Defect.
Free flap surgery is currently the only successful method used by surgeons to reconstruct critical-sized defects of the jaw, and is commonly used in patients who have had bony lesions excised due to oral cancer, trauma, infection or necrosi…

Maxillofacial reconstruction with prefabricated prelaminated osseous free flaps.
[BACKGROUND] The prefabricated fibula flap is an advanced method of occlusal-based reconstruction that combines placement of osseointegrated dental implants with prelamination, using a split skin graft on the fibula, weeks prior to the defi…

Single-incision surgery for gynecomastia using TriPort: A case report.
Gynecomastia is a common benign condition of the male breast, frequently observed in newborns, adolescents and the elderly. Surgical excision remains one of the most effective methods for the management of patients with gynecomastia, partic…
