Use of Supraclavicular Flap by End to Side Technique in Pharyngeal SCC: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Objectives: In recent years, conservation laryngeal surgeries, including partial pharyngectomy, have been introduced as an alternative procedure for selected cases of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HSCC). Reconstruction of these defects presents a considerable challenge for the surgeon after partial pharyngectomy due to its circumferential nature. In this case report, we represent the innovative "End to side" technique to reconstruct hypopharyngeal defect using the rolled supraclavicular flap after laryngeal-preserving partial pharyngectomy.

Assessing the Clinical Value of Performing CT Scan before Rhinoplasty Surgery.

Introduction: The endonasal mucosal or anatomic pathologies could lead to poor functional results and dissatisfaction after rhinoplasty. Although computed tomography (CT) scan has become an integral part of the diagnostic paradigm for patients with pathologies of the paranasal sinuses, the use of CT scan for preoperative evaluation of patients seeking rhinoplasty is up for debate. Our aim in this study was to compare the efficacy of CT scan in diagnosing nasal pathologies with other evaluating tools in patients undergoing rhinoplasty.

Lipoma of the nasal septum: A case report.

Even routine diagnoses, such as septal deviation, which most people do not think need imaging, require careful examination because rare diagnoses such as lipoma may occur in the nose. Careful examination and imaging lead to the best treatment.

"End to Side Technique": More organ preservation with less morbidity in patients with pyriform sinus apex SCC.

Introduction: Hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is rare, but highly aggressive. Due to the advanced stage of this cancer at the time of diagnosis, radical surgery with reconstruction of pharynx is the standard care with high morbidity and mortality rate. A safer partial pharyngectomy could also be used for invasive hypopharyngeal cancer.

Genitourinary involvement in epidermolysis bullosa: clinical presentations and therapeutic challenges.

Objectives: To present our experience of children with epidermolysis bullosa (EB; a rare bullous disorder of the skin) with genitourinary involvement.

Patients And Methods: The medical records of eight children diagnosed with EB (six junctional and two dystrophic type) with genitourinary involvement were reviewed retrospectively. The data collected included age, clinical presentation, ultrasonographic findings, voiding cystourethrography, urodynamic and uroflowmetry studies, and the treatment challenges.
