BMI, Sex as Predictors of Anterolateral Thigh Free Flap Thickness for Oropharyngeal Reconstructions
This study evaluated BMI, sex, and their influence on anterolateral thigh free flap (ALTFF) thickness for oral/oropharyngeal reconstruction. Our results showed that BMI strongly correlated with flap thickness, and women had significantly thicker flaps, despite similar BMI.

Needle Handling Techniques in Endoscopic Suturing
This study describes practical needle handling techniques for endonasal endoscopic surgery, focusing on controlled suturing movements adapted to incision orientation and anatomical constraints. Emphasis is placed on single‐motion needle advancement, proper reorientation, and precise force application, particularly for skull base suturing where tactile ...
