Craniomaxillofacial Trauma & Reconstruction, Volume 12, Issue 2

Frontal sinus fractures are an uncommon injury of the maxillofacial skeleton, and account for 5–15% of all maxillofacial fractures. As the force of impact increases, fractures may extend beyond the anterior table to involve adjacent skull, posterior...

Revelations of orbital, intraorbital, and periorbital anatomy by a single author in 1921 kindled attempts at operative repair of the orbit, eyelids, and periorbit over the ensuing 100 years. They are the lasting contributions—the diuturnity—of Samuel...

The spinal accessory nerve (SAN) exhibits variant anatomy in its relation to the internal jugular vein (IJV) as well as the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM). These variations are important in locating the nerve during surgical neck procedures to avoi...

This article aimed to characterize, compare, and contrast the management of isolated orbital floor fractures among oculofacial and facial plastic surgeons in the United States. An anonymous 17-question multiple-choice web-based survey was distributed...

This study was conducted to compare the outcome of single noncompression miniplate versus two noncompression miniplates in the treatment of mandibular angle fracture. A total of 40 patients were divided into two groups: Group I (n = 20), patients wer...

Obtaining maxillomandibular fixation (MMF) to achieve fracture reduction and functional occlusion is essential in the management of maxillofacial trauma. The aims of this retrospective review were to compare the total time spent in the operating room...

This article aimed to assess the depth and volume of craniomaxillofacial (CMF) trauma exposure and education in otolaryngology residency training in the United States. This is a cross-sectional survey. A 15-question web-based survey was distributed t...

Angiofibroma is a relatively rare vascular lesion originating predominantly in the nasopharynx and occurs typically in male adolescents. Extranasopharyngeal sites of origin, such as nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, pharynx, and larynx, are extremely...

Gain-of-function mutations in the beta-catenin gene (CTNNB1) drive genomic instability within different cancers. However, it is unclear whether alterations in beta-catenin signaling can still lead to chromosomal rearrangements in neoplasms without me...

Since 2005, facial transplantation has emerged as a viable reconstructive option for the most severe defects not amenable to conventional reconstructive techniques, with promising aesthetic and functional outcomes to date. Key facial subunits and mid...

Mandibular fractures are a common injury encountered by facial trauma surgeons. A majority of these cases are in dentate patients and can predictably be treated with several different open or closed techniques. Edentulous mandible fractures can be ch...

Surgical management is increasingly preferred in human papilloma–related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Robotic surgery has a different role to play in oropharyngeal salivary origin tumors, where surgery is the primary essential modality. Thi...
