Topographical Anatomy of the Superficial Peroneal Nerve: A Cadaveric Study on Anatomical Patterns and Clinical Implications

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The notable anatomical variability of the superficial fibular nerve (SFN) affects clinical and surgical procedures that involve it. The aim of this study was to analyze the course and branching patterns of the SFNs relative to bony landmarks to provide foundational data for surgical precision and thereby minimize iatrogenic injuries.

The mucosal released‐coronally advanced flap: A novel surgical approach—A case report

open access: yesClinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The coronally advanced flap (CAF) can be a predictable surgical technique for the treatment of gingival recessions. However, the characteristics of the defect (e.g., limited amount of keratinized gingiva or flap tension, etc.) may limit the use of the CAF with a possible requirement of additional surgical interventions (i.e., the ...
