Background: Reduction malarplasty is effective in correcting prominent zygomatic body and arch in Asian populations, but periorbital zygomatic bony protrusion may not be sufficiently improved. In this study, we present the extended reduction malarplasty procedures to correct it simultaneously and compare the outcome with that of conventional L-shaped osteotomy.
Methods: A retrospective review of consecutive patients who received reduction malarplasty between August 2021 and September 2023 at our hospital was conducted.

The sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) has been performed mainly on an inpatient basis because of the duration of anaesthesia and the potential risk of postoperative complications, such as bleeding, pain, nausea, and vomiting. However, advances in both surgical and anaesthetic management have enabled the reduction of these risks and shortened the length of hospital stay. Thus, the SSRO may be feasible even in the ambulatory setting in elective cases.

Article Synopsis
- Preservation techniques in rhinoplasty are becoming more popular because they help maintain essential tissues, potentially leading to quicker recovery and less swelling.
- The method of elevating the soft tissue envelope requires careful and time-consuming dissection, which can be particularly challenging for surgeons, especially in complex cases like secondary rhinoplasties.
- To improve the process, using a surgical microscope could enhance visibility during the procedure, allowing for more precise movements and better ergonomic posture, potentially reducing strain on the surgeon.
Multidirectional cranial distraction osteogenesis technique for treating bicoronal synostosis.

Fronto-orbital advancement by distraction osteogenesis is a useful means of surgically correcting bicoronal synostosis. However, the scope for morphological revision is limited. To address this issue, we developed a multidirectional cranial distraction osteogenesis (MCDO) technique that we quantitatively assessed in patients with bicoronal synostosis.

Background: Previously, the authors developed a new method of distraction osteogenesis for the treatment of craniosynostosis, multidirectional cranial distraction osteogenesis (MCDO). The purpose of this study is to review the authors' experience of MCDO for remodeling of the anterior cranium in the patients of craniosynostosis.
Methods: Forty-five patients with craniosynostosis underwent MCDO for anterior cranial remodeling from 2003 to 2017.
