چکیده
INTRODUCTION: Craniosynostosis surgery is commonly performed for children at academic centers across the US. Previous literature has found increased hospital and surgical volume to correlate with better post-operative outcomes and decreased costs. However, the association between annual hospital volume of craniosynostosis surgery on inpatient complications and resource utilization is not well studied. In this study, we aim to quantify the impact of annual hospital volume of craniosynostosis surgery on inpatient complications and resource utilization using national data.

متن کاملThe Folded Buccal Musculomucosal Flap for Large Palatal Fistulae in Cleft Palate
BACKGROUND A palatal fistula is a common complication of cleft palate repair. Although a buccal musculomucosal flap (BMMF) is effective for fistula repair, it does have the following problems: a second operation may be required to release the pedicle on the oral side and unilateral BMMF cannot close mucosal defects of both the nasal and oral sides.
