[BACKGROUND] Deepening of the nasolabial fold with reduced malar highlight caused by sagging of the midface is one of the most important characteristics of facial aging. This report describes the use of 18-G polydioxanone (PDO) cog threads …

[BACKGROUND] With the evolution of facial rejuvenation methods, thread lifts have gained popularity among patients who seek cosmetic improvement. Absorbable wedge-shaped polydioxanone (PDO) sutures are currently available, and they are extr…

[BACKGROUND] The thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that uses barbed sutures, inserted subcutaneously, to produce lifting of ptotic tissue of the face and neck. There are currently very limited data on longevity and patient satis…

The major needs for cosmetic facial bone surgery come from anatomic differences in facial shape and in personal preference. Especially when consulting patients with different national or ethnic backgrounds, careful attention should be paid …

[BACKGROUND] Zygoma is a very crucial component for the anteroposterior positioning of the midface and for the maintenance of facial contours. Zygomatic fractures are considered as the second most common type of facial fractures following n…

[BACKGROUND] We hypothesized that the amount of bone resection and setback together controls the effect of reducing the zygomatic body during reduction malarplasty; however, quantitative analyses of this movement are lacking. [METHODS] A r…

A girl with congenital hemifacial hypertrophy had been observed and treated by a multidisciplinary team for craniofacial disorders in an academic medical centre since birth. At the age of 8 she was treated on account of considerable facial …

Extensive orbital exenteration requires complex reconstructive strategies to restore both function and aesthetic form while allowing for durable prosthetic rehabilitation. This retrospective study analyzed reconstructive outcomes following …

Reconstruction of full-thickness lower eyelid defects remains a complex challenge due to the simultaneous requirements of functional protection, dynamic closure, and aesthetic harmony. Various local and free flaps exist, but limitations suc…

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…

Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the maxilla is relatively uncommon. To the authors' knowledge, no previous reports have described reconstruction of malar and maxillary ORN using a thoracodorsal artery perforator flap combined with scapular bone…

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is a locally invasive skin malignancy that can affect the periocular region, often posing significant reconstructive challenges when recurrent or inadequately treated. We report the case of an 80-year-old male wit…

[BACKGROUND] GATA2 deficiency is a rare genetic disorder associated with hematologic, infectious, and neoplastic complications. We report a case of a patient with GATA2 deficiency who developed aggressive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of th…

Bear attack, a relatively rare cause of maxillofacial trauma, could lead to severe facial deformity as well as functional impairment. A 45-year-old male ranger was attacked by a bear and suffered an extensive maxillofacial avulsion injury, …

[OBJECTIVE] To present a rare case of sebaceous cyst masking skin squamous carcinoma. The delayed diagnosis made necessary a two-step (demolition and reconstruction) surgery to save patient's life. [MATERIAL AND METHODS] A 77-year-old male…

[BACKGROUND] Restoring anatomical contour and position of the malar eminence and orbital rim following ablative mid-face procedures is critical in maintaining facial contour and orbit position. [OBJECTIVE] To report our reconstructive appr…

[BACKGROUND] The aim of this study was to report the first case of acute facial allograft transplantation (facial allograft transplantation) failure with allograft removal and autologous free-flap reconstruction. [METHODS] A 49-year-old fe…

[OBJECTIVE] Transorbital approaches for neurosurgery have recently attracted attention and several anatomical studies have aimed to improve these techniques, but significant deficiencies in clinical practice remain, especially for aneurysm …
