Reconstructive management of a patient with Tessier number 10 cleft.

Tessier number 10 cleft is one of the rarest facial clefts. Surgical treatment of this type of cleft is challenging due to the complexity of periorbital and temporal soft tissue deformities. A 23-year-old male patient presented with typical facial deformities of Tessier number 10 cleft.

Study of asymmetries of the cranial vault in plagiocephaly.

Organic plagiocephaly is caused by premature synostosis of the coronal suture. The subject is dealt with in the context of a desire to categorize these types of asymmetries and to find asymmetry indices using computed tomography scan images. From a cephalometric point of view, the authors looked for a reproducible reference, independent of the structures to be studied-the vestibular orientation, which is based on the definition of a mediolabyrinthic plane, making it possible to assess the symmetry.
