Outcomes and Innervation of Gracilis for Pediatric Facial Paralysis: A Systematic Review
This systematic review compares innervation techniques for gracilis free muscle transfer in pediatric facial paralysis. Masseteric innervation produced the greatest commissure excursion, cross‐facial nerve grafting enabled spontaneous smiles, and dual innervation balanced both with high satisfaction and low complication rates across techniques ...

ALT Rescue Flap With Iliac Crest Bone Graft and Spanning Plate for Mandibular ORN
In select patients with focal full‐thickness mandibular ORN defects, the use of ALTFL in conjunction with ICBG and a spanning reconstructive plate appears to offer clinical and radiographic arrest of ORN. This technique has considerably lower morbidity than osteocutaneous reconstruction, with abbreviated hospital stays, a low complication rate, and no ...

This systematic review and meta‐analysis of 53 studies and 1354 patients evaluates the outcomes of temporalis muscle transfer in facial nerve paralysis. Our results show that temporalis muscle transfer can restore smile asymmetry, oral commissure movement, and eyelid closure—findings that are translated to clinician‐rated assessments.
