Delayed Mental Nerve Neuralgia following Chin Augmentation.

This paper describes a case of mental nerve neuralgia following a traumatic dislodgement of a chin implant ten months after surgery. Our case is unusual, both in the specific complication and the patients' atypical representation-delayed and initially without mention of trauma. To the authors' knowledge, this case has not been reported previously in the literature.

Salvage vertical partial laryngectomy for radiation failure in early glottic carcinoma.

Background: Partial laryngectomy after failure of radiotherapy for early glottic cancer is an accepted surgical salvage procedure. However, there have been only a few studies on recurrent disease or long-term survival.

Methods: Twenty-one patients who were treated with salvage partial vertical laryngectomy (PVL) following failure of primary radiotherapy were prospectively studied.
