Mucosal Margin Shrinkage in Oral Cavity Cancer: A Systematic Review
Abstract Objective Tissue shrinkage can make planning of surgical margins challenging. While shrinkage of resected oral cavity mucosa is well‐described, current data quantifying these effects are variable. The aim of this systematic review was to summarize current evidence on margin shrinkage in oral cavity cancer after resection and formalin fixation.

Upper Extremity Outcomes in Radial Forearm Free Flap Reconstruction of the Head and Neck
Abstract Objective Fasciocutaneous radial forearm free flaps (RFFF) are widely used for head and neck soft tissue reconstruction. Osteocutaneous radial forearm free flaps (OCRFFF) enable bony reconstruction, but concerns for donor site morbidity have limited their use. Long‐term donor site outcomes following OCRFFF remain understudied.

Biomechanics and Evolution of the Primate Tongue
ABSTRACT Primate tongue morphology and function are critical to understanding the evolution of feeding, swallowing, and vocalization. In this paper, we examine the primate tongue as a muscular hydrostat with regionally specialized neuromuscular compartments. We integrate anatomical, kinematic, and biomechanical modeling approaches to analyze how muscle
