Wide subperiosteal undermining in primary surgical correction of labio-maxillary clefts not only enhances the osteogenic activity of the periosteum but in addition, if the exposure is extended from the superior limit of the ascending maxillary process and the nasal bone to the inferior orbital rim above the infra-orbital foramen and the malar eminence, good suppleness of the overlying muscles can be achieved.

Rhinosinusitis is a common childhood illness that may result in a number of ocular problems. The goal of this thorough analysis is to compile the available data regarding the kinds, prevalence, and treatment of ocular problems related to juvenile rhinosinusitis. A comprehensive analysis of electronic databases, such as PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library, was carried out to pinpoint pertinent research articles written in English and published between the beginning and August of 2023.

Background And Objectives: Current surgical strategies for dumbbell nerve sheath tumors (DNSTs) with cord compression have primarily involved wide spinal exposures with total laminectomy and unilateral facetectomy, often leading to spinal destabilization and requiring fusion, or staged procedures separately addressing the intraspinal and extraforaminal tumor components. This study highlights technical nuances of a novel approach for DNST resection to minimize spinal destabilization and avoid fusion while facilitating safe, single-stage complete resection.
Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted on patients undergoing DNST resection.

Introduction: The 4th-5th metacarpal synostosis, present in over 80% of Apert hands, flattens the metacarpal arch, restricts metacarpal descent, may prevent opposition of border rays, and combined with symphalangism, negates any functional flexion. Ironically, the fifth ray including the digit is the most intact finger within the hand. Restoration of both position and mobility with arthroplasty changes the cardinal plane of flexion and enables both pinch and grip in these compromised hands.
