Article Synopsis
- Evaluating the neck's relationship with the lower face is crucial for recommending effective rejuvenation procedures, leading to a new modified Baker classification for aging neck treatments.
- Over a decade, 450 patients underwent various neck rejuvenation techniques, with a high patient satisfaction rate of 94% and a low complication rate of 1.78%.
- A thorough preoperative assessment and the proposed classification system are essential in selecting the right surgical method, ensuring reliable results and minimal complications in cervical rejuvenation.
Introduction: Patients presenting with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary (HNSCCUP) remain challenging clinical scenarios as large variation exists in practices used to locate the primary.
Objective: The objective of this systematic review is to review of the literature and offer recommendations for oropharyngeal biopsies in HNSCCUP.
Method: Pubmed, Medline and Embase were searched to identify studies from inception to October 2021.

Article Synopsis
- - The study examines the effectiveness of the Labbé procedure, which involves immediate lengthening of the temporalis muscle for facial reanimation, in elderly patients after a parotidectomy involving the facial nerve.
- - Five elderly patients (average age 83) who underwent this procedure after parotid malignancies showed significant improvement in facial function, as measured by House-Brackmann and Sunnybrook scores.
- - Results indicate that the immediate Labbé procedure is a safe and effective option for achieving better facial mimetic function without the need for additional surgeries in selected elderly patients.

Article Synopsis
- The author discusses a severe case of a facial germ line tumor linked to neurological disorders that hasn't been documented before.
- A 33-year-old woman had a significant facial mass, and after surgical removal, it turned out to be a grade 3 immature teratoma.
- Unfortunately, the tumor recurred shortly after surgery, and the patient ultimately died from complications, highlighting the complexity and poor outlook of such conditions.
