As the face ages, the skin, fat, muscle, and fascia descend, and the underlying bone, cartilage, and teeth may lose mass. Oculofacial aging is a multifactorial process that is influenced by genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. This review summarizes the patterns of oculofacial aging that are observed across populations, including variations in periorbital hollowing, eyelid ptosis, and skin elasticity.

Introduction: Giant basal cell carcinoma (GBCC) is a rare and aggressive subtype of basal cell carcinoma (BCC), characterized by a diameter of ≥5 cm and a potential for deep tissue invasion. This study aimed to present our experience with the surgical management of GBCC in the maxillofacial region, focusing on resection and immediate reconstruction strategies.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 5926 patients with BCC in the maxillofacial region from 2010 to 2020, with a specific emphasis on 32 patients diagnosed with GBCC.

Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is the most common joint disease, characterized by the degeneration of joint cartilage. Intra-articular hyaluronic acid (IAHA) injections are a well-established non-surgical treatment. This retrospective study analyzed knee OA patients receiving IAHA combined with niacinamide injections, assessing pain reduction in relation to patient data, the number of injections, and radiological findings.

Joint degeneration characterized by cartilage deterioration and bone wear is the hallmark of osteoarthritis (OA), a condition that worsens over time. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the most common effective treatment for OA. Conventional therapy training (CTT) is the standard intervention; we are testing whether intensive therapy training (ITT) provides different results when used preoperatively.

Article Synopsis
  • Congenital Tracheal Stenosis (CTS) is a rare but serious condition in children, often treated with slide tracheoplasty (ST) involving sternotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass.
  • The study analyzed surgical outcomes of 20 CTS patients treated from 2012 to 2022, revealing a 5% mortality rate post-surgery, with 40% requiring further interventions, but no need for tracheostomy.
  • A tailored, multidisciplinary approach is recommended for treating CTS, allowing for alternative procedures based on individual patient evaluations, rather than relying solely on the traditional ST method.
