AI Article Synopsis
- Management of the midface is crucial for achieving facial harmony in transgender patients seeking feminization surgery.
- The structure and projection of different facial areas significantly influence one's overall facial appearance.
- The article discusses techniques for midface management, focusing on both bony remodeling and soft tissue considerations for transgender individuals.
Article Abstract
Management of the midface has a central role to achieve harmony in the transgender patient requesting facial feminization surgery. The relative projection of separate areas of the craniofacial skeleton largely determines the appearance of the facial framework. In this article the authors describe the management of the midface; bony remodeling and soft tissue aspects, in the transgender patient.

Midface fractures present a clinical challenge in otorhinolaryngology due to their often complex injury pattern and nonspecific symptoms. Precise diagnostics, including differentiated imaging procedures, are required. Interdisciplinary consultation between otorhinolaryngology, maxillofacial surgery, neurosurgery, and ophthalmology is often necessary.

Objective: The objective of this study was to discuss the characteristics of intracranial extension in patients with juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) and propose and an algorithm for its management.
Methods: A retrospective chart review of all patients with JNA who underwent operations between January 2013 and January 2023 was done, and those cases with intracranial extension categorized as stage IIIb, IVa, and IVb according to the Andrews modification of the Fisch staging classification were included in the study. Data were collected about age at presentation, symptoms, radiological findings, routes of intracranial extension, therapeutic management, and follow-up.

Osteogenesis imperfecta, a common genetic connective tissue disorder affecting bone with multisystemic implications, is caused by genomic alterations at various levels that disrupt the biosynthesis stages of collagen Type I. This study evaluated the intraoral and clinical findings of 43 OI cases in relation to genetic variants, aiming to contribute new insights into the roles of collagen and non-collagen genes in the oral-dental pathology of OI. Significant associations were found between OI variants and dental anomalies such as dentinogenesis imperfecta, enamel hypoplasia, taurodontism, and hypodontia.

Objective: The prevalent reliance on 2-wheelers as a preferred mode of private transportation in rural and semi-urban regions and the various associated social and material factors put riders at significant risk for road traffic accidents causing maxillofacial trauma. This epidemiological study aims to investigate these factors and their influence on patterns of maxillofacial injuries among 2-wheeler riders in semi-urban and rural areas of South India.
Methods: Data from all cases with maxillofacial injuries over 6 years were collected retrospectively, including demographic characteristics, accident specifics, helmet use, injury patterns, and management.
