A Toolbox of Surgical Techniques for Palatal Fistula Repair.

Objective: To provide an inventory of oronasal fistula repair techniques alongside expert commentary on which techniques are appropriate for each fistula type.

Design: A 4-stage approach was used to develop a consensus on surgical techniques available for fistula repair: (1) in-person discussion of oronasal fistula cases among cleft surgeons, (2) development of a schema for fistula management using transcripts of the in-person case discussion, (3) evaluation of the preliminary schema via a web-based survey of additional cleft surgeons, and (4) revision of the management schema using survey responses.

Participants: Six cleft surgeons participated in the in-person case discussion.

Patient-Centered Satisfaction After Secondary Correction of the Cleft Lip and Nasal Defect.

Objective: To evaluate patient-reported aesthetic and psychosocial outcomes of secondary cleft lip and nose revision procedures.

Design: Single-center cohort study.

Setting: Tertiary care pediatric hospital.

Intracranial Venous Hypertension in Craniosynostosis: Mechanistic Underpinnings and Therapeutic Implications.

Patients with complex, multisutural, and syndromic craniosynostosis (CSO) frequently exhibit intracranial hypertension. The intracranial hypertension cannot be entirely attributed to the craniocephalic disproportion with calvarial restriction because cranial vault expansion has not consistently alleviated elevated intracranial pressure. Evidence has most strongly supported a multifactorial interaction, including venous hypertension along with other pathogenic processes.
