Article Synopsis
- Pediatric mandibular condyle fractures can lead to serious issues like pain and facial deformities if not treated correctly, yet there’s no agreed-upon treatment method.
- A study analyzed how these fractures are managed in children aged 0 to 16 across 14 maxillofacial departments worldwide, examining treatment approaches over an 11-year period.
- The research found that treatment methods varied significantly among departments, with expectant management, closed treatment, and open reduction being utilized, all showing effectiveness with low complication rates.

Article Synopsis
- The paper discusses the complexities of microvascular reconstruction for the orbit and nearby areas, emphasizing the importance of a checklist for reconstructive surgeons.
- It is based on a literature review of case series and reports, alongside the author's extensive experience in the field.
- A holistic approach is proposed where both patient-related factors and defect-related considerations are crucial in choosing the right reconstructive method, alongside the introduction of new technologies.
Advances in Open Reduction and Internal Fixation of Multiple Mandibular Fractures with Condylar Involvement.

From the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Landeskrankenhaus, University Hospital of the Private Medical University Paracelsus.
Multiple mandibular fractures with condylar involvement are challenging to treat. This article presents a series of steps to simplify the treatment and improve the outcomes in open reduction and internal fixation of multiple mandibular fractures with condylar involvement. Four new elements are identified: three-dimensional printing, model surgery, Kirschner wires to manipulate the segments in condylar fractures, and a top-to-bottom sequence.

In cases of large defects of the limbs, post-traumatic deformity and disability can have devastating effects on patients' quality of life. The purpose of this report is to describe the technique for raising a fasciocutaneous iliotibial perforator flap and present its application in the reconstruction of a complex soft tissue defect of the foot. The patient was a 13-year-old male who had suffered a crush injury to the foot in a motor vehicle accident 5 years earlier.

The authors report a patient with masticator space abscess due to an ascending infection following a wisdom tooth extraction. They administered antibiotics and did an incision and drainage; however, osteomyelitis of the mandible and compartment syndrome of the temporal muscle complicated the course. The authors suggest a physiopathology and discuss the management of this study.

We deal regularly with patients who present with severe atrophy of the jaws, compromised soft tissue, or penetrating defects of the alveolar ridge that are not the result of malignant disease. For these patients we use microvascular bony flaps together with dental implants and implant-supported prostheses. The purpose of this retrospective study was to present our current management and the lessons we have learned over a 16-year period while treating 86 patients for these indications with 87 microvascular bone flaps.
