we have found prefabrication of hairless radial forearm free flap to be a useful technique for nasal reconstruction. prior skin grafting and a suitable period of maturation permits safe, reliable surgery. its use should be considered in those patients whose forehead tissue is not suitable or in whom appropriate distant flaps are not available, as is often the case with hirsute males.

Fever is a common symptom of many infections, e.g., in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, keeping monitoring devices such as thermometers constant demand. Recent technological advancements have made infrared (IR) choice for contactless screening multiple individuals. Yet, even so, measurement accuracy affected by factors including distance from volunteers’ forehead, impurities (such sweat), and loc...

A 60 years old male presented with chief complaints of gradually increasing painful swelling on the forehead in the midline for the period of one year. There was no other significant history. General examination revealed pallor. Regional examination revealed an approximately 6x6 cm sized, soft to firm, tender swelling over forehead in the midline extending superiorly upto the hairline and infer...

Nose is the most common site of facial skin cancer because of its continuous sun exposure.1 Soft tissue tumors such as basal cell carcinoma (BCC) are the most common tumors of this region. The choice of treatment for BCC is surgical demolitions. Since these tumors grow more aggressively and are so likely to recur from the involved surgical margins, the surgery requires often wide resection of t...

We have compared deep body temperature (DBT) measured at the forehead with the core temperatures of the nasopharynx, oesophagus and rectum during the warming phase of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) (moderate hypothermia of 26.7-29.6 degrees C) in 12 patients. DBT was measured transcutaneously by an insulated thermistor probe that created an area of zero thermal flow between skin and subcutaneous ...

A 17 year old girl presented with asymptomatic linear depressed groove involving the midline of the forehead region which was progressively increasing over the past 1 year. The lesion was slowly extending to the scalp which became a major concern to the patient. There was no history of trauma preceding the development of the lesion. On examination, an ivory sclerotic depressed linear lesion mai...

The paramedian forehead flap has become the standard of care for major nasal reconstruction. The classic procedure involves a second-stage operation to divide and inset the external pedicle. We present our experience in a clinical series using single-stage forehead flap reconstruction. Our indications include elderly patients, pediatric patients treated during mission trips, and any patient in ...

OBJECTIVE To conduct objective quantitative and qualitative evaluations of the long-term result in endoscopic forehead-lift. METHODS Medical charts of 143 patients who underwent endoscopic forehead-lift between 1994 and 2007 were reviewed for postoperative complications and the duration of complaints. Patients received a questionnaire to evaluate satisfaction and social restriction after surg...
