Salvage of a cartilage framework exposure in total ear reconstruction using a retro-auricular fascia flap with double axial irrigation

JPRAS Open, 2018
Summary: Cartilage framework exposure during total ear reconstruction requires an early salvage procedure and a secure coverage. We present a case that has been successfully covered by a retro-auricular fascia flap and a skin graft.

A Photothermally Amplified Enzyme–Nitric Oxide Co‐Regulatory System Reprograms Pathological ECM–Fibroblast Crosstalk to Alleviate Hypertrophic Scarring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An enzyme–nitric oxide (NO) co‐regulatory strategy reprograms pathological extracellular matrix (ECM)–fibroblast crosstalk in hypertrophic scars. Enzymatic degradation of pre‐existing ECM relieves aberrant mechanical cues, while NO‐mediated fibroblast phenotypic modulation restrains excessive collagen synthesis.

A New Technique for Conchal Cartilage Harvest

Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2017
The goal of auricular cartilage harvest is to obtain a sufficient amount for reconstruction and to minimize the change in ear shape. The cartilage can be harvested by a posterior or anterior approach, and each method has advantages and disadvantages. The

The Diagnosis That Arrived Decades Late: Living Without and Then With Myhre Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myhre syndrome (MIM #139210) is a rare multisystem disorder first described in 1981, characterized by short stature, neurodevelopmental delay, joint contractures, and cardiopulmonary complications. Its molecular basis, recurrent pathogenic variants in SMAD4, was not discovered until 2011. This narrative is based on a review of medical records,

Temperature‐Controlled Radiofrequency for Severe Nasal Airway Obstruction: A Non‐Inferiority Comparison With Surgical Intervention

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Temperature‐controlled radiofrequency (TCRF), septoplasty (ST) with turbinate reduction, and functional rhinoplasty (FR) are treatment options for nasal airway obstruction (NAO) and nasal valve dysfunction (NVD), but no direct comparison of these procedures has been performed. Methods This prospective, open‐label, non‐inferiority (

Rib Cartilage Assessment Relative to the Healthy Ear in Young Children with Microtia Guiding Operative Timing

Chinese Medical Journal, 2015
Background: The optimal age at which to initiate for auricular reconstruction is controversial. Rib cartilage growth is closely related to age and determines the feasibility and outcomes of auricular reconstruction.

Complications and Clinical Outcomes Following Modified Endoscopic Denker's With Pyriform Aperture Preservation: A Prospective Analysis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The modified endoscopic Denker's (MED) approach provides access to all maxillary sinus (MS) walls for resection of various MS and retromaxillary pathologies, but the anteromedial maxilla has historically been resected. This study determined complication rates and outcomes following MED with pyriform aperture (PA) preservation ...

Healing Following Endoscopic Reconstruction of the Anterior Skull Base in Patients With Sinonasal Malignancies

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Healing dynamics after anterior skull base (ASB) reconstruction following transnasal endoscopic surgery (TES) for sinonasal malignancies remain poorly characterized. This study aimed to describe the postoperative healing process, quantify time to healing, identify factors influencing healing, and assess radiologic evolution over ...

Bilateral auriclar and external ear canal cartilage calcification

Ear, Nose & Throat Journal
Calcification of auricular cartilage is a rare condition. This phenomenon might be associated with frostbite, local trauma, inflammation, or systemic diseases. Calcification that progresses to the external ear canal cartilage is even rarer. We present an
