The scope of the interventions and their results, as well as some aspects of the approach are analyzed in 24 cases. Tentoriotomy from the posterior cranial fossa proved technically complicated; its results are unsatisfactory. Somewhat better results were obtained with a combined approach including an incision of the tentorium. The most favourable results were received with the supratentorial approach and incision of the cerebellar tentorium. This method created optimum conditions for a radical excision of some paratentorial tumours of the posterior cranial fossa with minimum mortality.

Purpose: Anterior tibial closing wedge osteotomy (ATCWO) has been shown to significantly reduce failure rates of revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions in patients with a posterior tibial slope (PTS) ≥12°. Recent findings suggest a slight but significant reduction of the medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) resulting in a varus knee where the sagittal osteotomy plane is based on a total of two guide wires defining the osteotomy wedge without respecting the frontal plane. We hypothesize that the placement of a total of four guide wires intraoperatively can reduce the influence on the MPTA.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to obtain the anatomical limits of the parapharyngeal space by transoral surgical approach, in order to objectively determine the types of lesions according to location, where this type of approach is more indicated.
Methods: A prospective, experimental, radio-anatomical study was performed on 10 cryopreserved human heads(20 sides). A transoral approach of the parapharyngeal space was performed determining its anatomical limits by CT navigation.

: This study aimed to compare the effects of surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion (SARPE) techniques and their combinations on the stresses (von Mises, maximum principal, and minimum principal) and displacements that occur in the maxilla, facial bones, and maxillary teeth using three-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA). : SARPE was simulated using seven different osteotomy techniques. The FEA models were simulated with a combination of various osteotomies, including midpalatal and lateral osteotomies, lateral osteotomy with a step, and separation of the pterygomaxillary junction.

The aim of this systematic review was to assess clinical trials on the efficiency of sinus lift techniques with and without bone grafting in the atrophic posterior maxilla. This article was written under the PRISMA and the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions guidelines. PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were electronically searched until December 2023.

: Oral breathing is a common condition, particularly in children, and it is associated with significant changes in craniofacial development, dentomaxillary anomalies, and overall health. Despite extensive research, the role of oral breathing in the development of malocclusion remains controversial, with debates on whether it is a causative factor or a secondary adaptation to existing craniofacial issues. : This narrative review synthesizes studies published in the last 15 years, focusing on the impact of oral breathing on dentofacial development and mandibular posture.
