Engineering an artificial trachea: Quantitative benchmarks and modular strategies for mechanics, epithelialization, and vascular integration

FlexMat, EarlyView.
In this work, we first examine the limitations of surgical repair and stenting, including migration, granulation, mucus plugging, and infection. We then translate these failures into engineering constraints involving geometry, mechanics, fixation, degradation, junctional stress, and remodeling.

Swallowing‐Related Quality of Life After Carotid Body Tumor Resection: A Longitudinal Trajectory Analysis

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To identify longitudinal swallowing‐related QoL trajectories after carotid body tumor (CBT) resection and explore associated characteristics. Methods A prospective study assessed swallowing‐related QoL using the MD Anderson Dysphagia Inventory at nine timepoints from preoperation to 12 months postdischarge.

Intraoperative IGS/CT updates for complex endoscopic frontal sinus surgery.

, 2008
INTRODUCTION: Computer-aided surgery (CAS) systems integrate endoscopic visualization with real-time localization based on preoperative imaging. One short-coming of the current systems is the lack of real-time, radiographic assessment of surgical changes.

Craniofacial Resection for Advanced Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Results From the 2nd International Collaborative Case‐Series

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Robust outcome data for anterior skull base cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) are limited, particularly as emerging therapies reshape management. We evaluated survival and prognostic factors following craniofacial resection. Methods Retrospective multi‐institutional case‐series (1995–2015) of patients who underwent skull base

Retrieval of migrated dental implant from maxillary sinus using endoscopic sinus surgery

Journal of Current Research in Scientific Medicine
Dental implants placed in the maxillary molar region, can get displaced, and can lead to migration of the implant into the maxillary sinus. This is more likely to happen when placement is done immediately after tooth extraction.

Postoperative Hemoglobin and Transfusion Rates Do Not Influence Revision of Head and Neck Free Flap in a Cohort of 259 Patients

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Recent literature advocates restrictive transfusion thresholds (Hb < 7 g/dL). The aim of this study was to evaluate if postoperative hemoglobin levels and transfusions influence Free Flap Revision (FFR). Methods This single center retrospective study included all patients who underwent head and neck surgery with free flap ...
