Surgical outcomes of the surgical techniques following management of iatrogenic trigeminal nerve injuries: A systematic review.

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of the microsurgical treatment in restoring full sensory recovery following trigeminal nerve injuries caused by iatrogenic oral and maxillofacial surgical interventions.

Methods: A detailed search was conducted on the Cochrane central register of controlled trials, Medline and Embase. Clinical studies with at least twelve months of follow up were included and assessment of risks of bias was made using the Robbin I assessment tool

Results: Six studies were identified in the searches which include 227 patients.

Silicone Facial Implants, to Fixate or Not to Fixate: A Narrative Review.

Silicone implants are one of the most widely used implants for facial augmentation, especially in the chin, mandibular angle, and malar area, utilizing different surgical approaches.
