Improved Outcomes in Lower Eyelid Reconstruction With Biodegradable Implant: A Comparative Study.

Background: Eyelid reconstruction is essential for patients who have undergone radical surgery to treat eyelid malignancies. The primary goal of this surgery is to restore both the functional and aesthetic aspects of the eyelid. Traditionally, various grafts from other parts of the body have been used for reconstruction.

Metabolomics of head and neck cancer in biofluids: an integrative systematic review.

Introduction: Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the fifth most common cancer globally. Diagnosis at early stages are critical to reduce mortality and improve functional and esthetic outcomes associated with HNC. Metabolomics is a promising approach for discovery of biomarkers and metabolic pathways for risk assessment and early detection of HNC.

The surgical treatment of acquired subglottic stenosis in children with double-stage laryngotracheal reconstruction.

Objectives: The aim of this study is to report our experience with double-stage laryngotracheal reconstruction with anterior or antero-posterior cartilage grafting in the management of acquired laryngotracheal stenosis in children. Patients were treated by the same surgeon at the UMC National Research Center for Maternal and Child Health of Astana (Kazakhstan), and Sfendiyarov Kazakh National Medical University, Almaty (Kazakhstan).

Methods: From November 2011 to September 2019, 9 children underwent surgery for grade III and IV laryngotracheal stenosis according to the European Laryngological Society classification (mean age of 6 years, range of 2-12 years).

[Surgical treatment of chronic otitis media in children using three-dimensional imaging].

The introduction of three-dimensional exoscopy has opened a new stage in microsurgery in recent years. Researchers from various specialties give mostly positive reviews. There are very few works on the use of three-dimensional imaging in otorhinolaryngology, and there are practically no such works on otosurgery.
