Defining a new aggressiveness classification and using NFATc1 localization as a prognostic factor in cherubism.

Cherubism is a rare genetic disease characterized by bilateral giant cell reparative granuloma of the jaws consisting of a fibrotic stroma with giant multinucleated cells (GMCs) and osteoclastic features. Cherubism severity is highly variable, and recurrence after surgery is the most important risk. Currently, there are no prognostic indicators.

[Superficial ulnar artery: Case report].

The anatomical variations of arterial axes of the upper limb are not uncommon and must be known to allow for safe surgical procedures and in order to limit the morbidity of these procedures. The superficial ulnar artery represents, after the variations in origin of the radial artery, the second most frequent variation in this area. When present, reconstructive procedures may be modified, especially when harvesting forearm free flaps, in order to choose this vessel as nourishing pedicle.

Recently, composite facial allotransplantation was used for reconstruction. This could be performed because of specific facial blood supply and its facial and maxillary anastomoses.

[French clinical guidelines for prevention of perianaesthetic dental injuries: long text].

Introduction: Dental injuries represent the most common claims against the anaesthesiologists. Dental lesions are frequent complications of orotracheal intubation and major causal factors are, firstly, preexisting poor dentition, and, secondly, difficult laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation. The aim of this work was to prioritize propositions for prevention in perianaesthetic dental injury and for care in case of dental trauma.

[Tongue reconstruction with a bilateral infrahyoid flap innervated by Ansa Cervicalis after total glossectomy].

Introduction: Reconstruction after total glossectomy remains a functional challenge. It must provide a large volume to ensure adequate phonation and swallowing. We present the larynx sparing bilateral infrahyoid flap reconstruction procedure after total glossectomy.

A multirecurrent ameloblastoma metastatic to the lung.

Introduction: The ameloblastoma is a rare tumor of odontogenic epithelial origin. It is a neoplasm in which ameloblastic features are revealed by the primary growth in jaws and by any metastatic growth. Recurrences are usually local and distant metastases are rare.

On two equations about brain volume, cranial capacity and age.

Aim: We decided to study the relationship between brain volume and cranial capacity and the relationship between brain volume and age on a series of CT from healthy adults.

Methods: Fifty-eight healthy volunteers (27 women, 31 men, age range 18-95 years) were examined using our imaging protocols. The volunteers had no present or past neuropsychiatric illness and no abuse of alcohol or illicit drugs.

Treatment of mandibular fractures with Michelet technique: manual fracture reduction without arch bars.

Purpose: In our Bordeaux maxillofacial surgery unit, we have used the Michelet technique described for 40 years: manual fracture reduction and semi-rigid miniplate osteosynthesis fixation. No maxillomandibular fixation (MMF) with arch bars or with screws was used for reduction during osteosynthesis. The aim of this work was to evaluate results of this unknown manual reduction method.

[276 cases of horizontal infrahyoid myocutaneous flap].

Introduction: The infrahyoid myocutaneous flap was described by Wang et al. in 1986. The horizontal design of the skin paddle is a modification of this technique allowing for a smaller scar.

Result of maxillomandibular fixation using intraoral cortical bone screws for condylar fractures of the mandible.
