Anatomical data from 20 laboratory dissections are employed to describe a composite flap associating skin, the latissimus dorsi muscle, and ribs, important anastomoses existing between the intercostal and inferior scapula vascular systems. Two cases were treated by single-stage extensive reconstruction of the mandibular region employing this osteomusculocutaneous flap of the latissimus dorsi.

A calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) is a cystic lesion originating from odontogenic epithelium, exhibiting ameloblastomatous features and containing focal accumulations of ghost cells. The standard treatment for COC typically involves enucleation followed by surgical curettage. However, if the cyst is large or closely associated with anatomical structures, decompression may be considered as a preliminary step before enucleation.

Osseointegration is a crucial property of biomaterials used for bone defect repair. While titanium is the gold standard in craniofacial surgeries, various polymeric biomaterials are being explored as alternatives. However, polymeric materials can be bioinert, hindering integration with surrounding tissues.

Objectives: To investigate the performance of a deep learning (DL) model for segmenting cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans taken before and after mandibular horizontal guided bone regeneration (GBR) to evaluate hard tissue changes.
Materials And Methods: The proposed SegResNet-based DL model was trained on 70 CBCT scans. It was tested on 10 pairs of pre- and post-operative CBCT scans of patients who underwent mandibular horizontal GBR.

Hyaluronic acid filler treatment is increasingly prevalent in the realm of plastic surgery, serving to correct a range of facial changes resulting from aging. Nevertheless, with its expanded application, an uptick in complications has been observed. This article reported a 30-year-old female patient who received chin hyaluronic acid filler treatment 5 years ago started experiencing atrophy and progressive deterioration at the injection site a year ago.

Objective: Complex ablative maxillary and mandibular defects often require osseous free flap reconstruction. Workhorse options include the fibula, scapula, and osteocutaneous radial forearm flap (OCRFF). The choice of donor site for harvest should be driven not only by reconstructive goals but also by donor site morbidity.
