Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing-Guided Scapular Tip Free Flap Reconstruction for Complex Maxillofacial Defects.
[BACKGROUND] Reconstruction of maxillary and mandibular defects following oncologic resection remains challenging due to their three-dimensional complexity and critical role in function and aesthetics. The scapular tip free flap (STFF) prov…

Operative protocol for re-do orthognathic surgery.
This study aimed to analyse the spectrum of unsatisfactory outcomes requiring secondary surgery, the technical challenges involved, and the results achieved in a cohort of patients undergoing reoperative orthognathic surgery. A retrospectiv…

Aggressive Mucormycosis with Extensive Craniofacial Involvement: A Case Report of Radical Surgical Management and Prosthetic Rehabilitation.
Mucormycosis is a rare but potentially fatal opportunistic fungal infection with high morbidity and mortality rates despite aggressive treatment. Rhinocerebral mucormycosis represents the most common form, requiring prompt recognition and m…

Three-step Approach for Facial Reconstruction After Injectable Silicon: Surgical Excision, Fat Grafting, and Hyaluronic Acid Filler.
[INTRODUCTION] In facial cosmetic surgery, injectable liquid silicone has been used to augment the cheek and the lips and to camouflage facial wrinkles. However, complications started to arise in 1964 as postoperative silicone granuloma for…

Preservation Rhinoplasty Performed Simultaneously with Bimaxillary Orthognathic Surgery: Last Evolution in Orthofacial Surgery.
[INTRODUCTION] Since 2018, we have begun to perform preservation rhinoplasty (PR). To the best of our knowledge, very few studies have evaluated simultaneous orthognathic surgery and PR. The aim of the present study was therefore to assess …

Technical refinements of the scapular tip-free flap for mandibular reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] The use of scapular tip chimeric free flaps (STFFs) for reconstructing mandibular defects has recently become popular, but its utility relative to other bone-containing free flaps remains debatable. The aim of the report is to …

Perioperative pain management after scapular tip free flap harvesting for head and neck reconstruction using mini-catheters to inject the local anesthetic.
[PURPOSE] Although functional and esthetic results after the use of a scapular tip free flap (STFF) in head and neck reconstruction, and the related donor-site morbidity, have been extensively described, data regarding acute postoperative d…

Double Arterialized Scapular Tip Free Flap for Mandibular Reconstruction.
[INTRODUCTION] Scapular tip free flap (STFF) has become today one of the workhorse flaps for maxillary reconstruction; recently, the possibility of extending the vascular supply by adding to the angular branch of the circumflex pedicle up t…

Maxillomandibular Advancement for Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome: Long-Term Results of Respiratory Function and Reverse Face-Lift.
[PURPOSE] Scientific literature considers maxillomandibular advancement (MMA) as the most effective surgical treatment for the management of adult obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Maxillomandibular advancement enlarges the pharyngea…

Microvascular reconstruction of the mandible with medial femoral condylar flap for treatment of mandibular non-union.
Mandibular non-union occurs in 2-9% after open reduction and internal fixation of a mandibular fracture (trauma surgery, orthognathic cases, access osteotomy for oncological purposes). The medial femoral condyle (MFC) has emerged more recen…

Algorithm to the treatment of Crouzon syndrome.
Clinical reports regarding the entire surgical sequence in Crouzon syndrome from the neonatal period to the adult age are rare. The purpose of this study is to trace an operative algorithm with a long term follow up in a homogenous group of…

Advanced Facial Rejuvenation After Bimaxillary Surgery in Three Different Facial Types.
[PURPOSE] Facial aging is the consequence of many mechanisms involving the bones and the "soft tissue" (skin, fat, ligaments, muscles, and periosteum) of the face such as downward migration of the soft tissue, adipose and muscular tissue at…

Maxillomandibular advancement in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome: a surgical model to investigate reverse face lift.
[BACKGROUND] The aging process is characterized by multiple signs affecting the upper, the middle, and the lower third of the face; coventionally, face-lift procedures and structural fat grafting are performed to create a younger face. Duri…
