Aims: The aim of this study is to retrospectively evaluate the use of a transconjunctival surgical approach in maxillofacial surgery on the fractures of the infraorbital rim and the orbital floor by analyzing the operating time, the incidence of perioperative and postoperative complications, as well as the functional and aesthetic outcomes of transconjunctival surgical treatment.

Materials And Methods: All the patients on whom we used a transconjunctival approach from December 2017 to December 2021 were included in this retrospective study. The epidemiological causes of fractures of the midface skeleton were analyzed.

Microvascular flap reconstructive surgery, with flap survival success rate more than 90-98%, is a gold standard in head and neck extensive reconstructions. Currently, head and neck reconstructive surgery is focused not only on defect occlusion and adequate aesthetical result, but the same emphasize is aimed at functional result.

Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluated speech outcomes and dental arch relationships in 5-year-old Czech patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) who underwent early surgery.
  • Results showed moderate hypernasality, with average articulation and speech intelligibility scores indicating some challenges, while dental outcomes were generally positive with most patients scoring well on the GOSLON scale.
  • The findings suggest that timely neonatal repair procedures yield effective speech and dental results, aligning with outcomes from other cleft treatment centers.
