A case of midfacial necrotizing lesion (midline nonhealing granuloma) is reported. Paraffin- and frozen-section immunocytochemistry suggested a tumor of B-cell lineage and was confirmed by Southern blot analysis that disclosed an immunoglobulin heavy chain gene rearrangement with no evidence of T-cell receptor genetic aberration. The tumor was of B-cell lineage despite the tumor site and the angiocentric pattern, which are typically seen with peripheral T cell lymphoma with this presentation.

Purpose: To describe surgical variations of the hatchet flap and a large series of patients in which this procedure was used for eyelid and midfacial reconstruction.
Methods: A retrospective review was performed on patients treated with a hatchet flap between March 2016 and March 2023. Patient demographics, defect characteristics, surgical techniques, and outcomes were investigated.

Advanced Education in Implant Dentistry, Loma Linda University School of Dentistry, Loma Linda, California, USA.
Objective: A scarf-shaped connective tissue graft can be placed at the facial and proximal aspect of the peri-implant soft tissue zone during immediate implant placement and provisionalization (IIPP) procedures in the esthetic zone to optimize implant esthetics without the need of flap reflection. This retrospective study evaluated soft tissue stability after scarf-connective tissue graft (S-CTG) in conjunction with IIPP procedures in the esthetic zone.
Materials And Methods: Patients who received IIPP with S-CTG with a minimum 1-year follow-up were evaluated.

Introduction: Noma is a disfiguring gangrenous disease of the orofacial tissue and predominantly affects malnourished children. The tissue gangrene or necrosis starts in the mouth and eventually spreads intra-orally with the destruction of soft and hard tissues. If not controlled, the natural course of the condition leads to a perforation through the skin of the face, creating a severe cosmetic and functional defect, which often affects the mid-facial structures.

Extranodal NK/T-Cell Lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTL-NT) has some salient aspects. The lymphoma is commonly seen in Eastern Asia, has progressive necrotic lesions in the nasal cavity, makes midfacial destructive lesions, and shows poor prognosis. The lymphoma cell is originated from either NK- or γδ T-cells, which express CD56.
