Plate osteosynthesis for bone fragment stabilisation in maxillo-facial surgery is a universal method whose advantages and drawbacks are now well documented. A new system of plates made out of titanium (3-D plates) is presented. The geometry of the plate assures a good stability in the three dimensions of the space. Easy use, good resistance against torque forces, compact form of the plate are some of the advantages. Various clinical cases are presented.

Anterior glenoid rim resorption after arthroscopic Bankart repair by the footprint fixation technique and its correlation with the healing of the repaired capsulolabral complex: a computed tomography and magnetic resonance arthrography imaging study.

Background: Studies have revealed that anterior glenoid rim bone resorption occurs in the early stage after arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) if bony Bankart lesions are absent or fail to heal. However, this structural change has never been studied after repair by footprint fixation (FF). Additionally, the relationship between the extent of rim resorption and healing of the repaired capsulolabral complex (CLC) remains unclear.

Background: Identification of peripheral nerve injuries of the head and neck can be challenging due to a broad spectrum of symptoms from neuropathic pain to headaches and migraine. This article aimed to present the clinical features and diagnostic workup of patients with acute and chronic peripheral nerve injuries of the head and neck using magnetic resonance neurography (MRN), to demonstrate potential advantages compared with conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Methods: Patients who presented with suspected peripheral nerve injury were either referred for a conventional MRI or MRN.

The bioengineering of vascular networks is pivotal to create complex tissues and organs for regenerative medicine applications. However, bioengineered tissues comprising an arterial and venous plexus alongside a lymphatic capillary network have not been explored yet. Here, scRNA-seq is first employed to investigate the arterio-venous endothelial cell marker patterning in human fetal and juvenile skin.

Objective: The Melbourne technique for total cranial vault remodeling aims to address all aspects of scaphocephaly in sagittal craniosynostosis. These features include anterior-posterior excessive length, anteriorly displaced vertex position, frontal bossing, vertex narrowing, and occipital bulleting. This study aimed to determine the progressive cranial changes that occur following the Melbourne technique for sagittal craniosynostosis.

Purpose: Feeding plates for cleft palate patients have been used by clinicians for many years to temporarily close the oro-nasal communication until definitive treatment with surgical techniques. The current in vitro study aimed to evaluate the adaptation of the feeding plates manufactured by two different techniques for three cleft types.
Materials And Methods: Feeding plates were manufactured with conventional compression molding (CM) and 3-dimensional (3D) additive manufacturing on main models representing bilateral cleft, unilateral right, and unilateral left cleft types (n = 10).
