Objective: To evaluate and compare the effectiveness of the ultrasound-guided intra-oral and extra-oral transcutaneous injection techniques on the clinical outcome variables in patients with myofascial trigger points within the masseter muscle.
Materials And Methods: This prospective randomized trial included 42 patients diagnosed with myofascial pain. Patients were randomly allocated into one of two groups based on the technique of trigger point injection: intraoral and extraoral injection technique groups.
Background: The management of intraosseous mandibular tumors in children is challenging. This study investigated clinical and pathological characteristics, surgical treatment, and outcome of pediatric benign intraosseous mandibular tumors.
Materials And Methods: A prospective study included patients under 18 years presenting with benign intraosseous mandibular tumors that were surgically managed.
Introduction: Benign intraosseous maxillary tumors, although uncommon among the adolescents, represent a major challenge to the maxillofacial surgeons. Treatment ranges from conservative surgery to radical resection and reconstruction. Maxillary defect reconstruction in adolescents is uncommon.

We here-in assess the cosmetic and functional outcome with distal extension of the MIUP in grafted tubularised incised-plate urethroplasty (G-TIP) repair.
Patients And Methods: This prospective study included the surgical experience of 263 cases of primary hypospadias operated upon between 2012 and 2015.
