Grizzly bear attacks are rare but often result in devastating craniofacial injuries requiring staged, multidisciplinary reconstruction. A 61-year-old male sustained extensive facial trauma, including complete lower lip avulsion and anterior…

Pediatric lower lip reconstruction is rare and technically challenging due to small donor sites, ongoing facial growth, and functional demands, such as speech and oral competence. We present the case of a one-year-old male who sustained com…

In the era of free flap reconstruction, mandibular defects are routinely reconstructed with osseous free flaps, and non-free flap bony reconstruction options are limited. A patient with T4N0 mandibular squamous cell carcinoma underwent rese…

[BACKGROUND] Fibula free flaps (FFF) are one of the most common bony flaps utilized. This paper describes a quality improvement project aimed at increasing early ambulation. [METHODS] A review of FFF patients at an academic hospital was co…

The osteocutaneous radial forearm free flap (OCRFFF) is a versatile flap with the ability to reconstruct complex defects. We detail the techniques necessary to harvest an OCRFFF, including an outline on making 90-degree osteotomies to maxim…

The osteocutaneous radial forearm (OCRFF) is a versatile free flap option for bony defects of the head and neck, given the thinness and pliability of the forearm cutaneous paddle, pedicle length, reliability, lack of atherosclerosis, and fu…

Midface reconstruction in head and neck cancer or individuals with extensive trauma to the face has evolved significantly over the past few decades with the introduction of free flap reconstruction and virtual surgical planning enabling sur…

Exploring potential methods of controlling postoperative rhinoplasty pain with non-narcotic medications. To examine the effects of celecoxib in reducing pain and possible opioid consumption after rhinoplasty surgery. This is a prospective…
