Primary intraosseous meningioma is a rare tumor, and atypical pathologic components both osteolytic lesion and dura and soft tissue invasion is extremely rare. A 65-year-old woman presented with a 5-month history of a soft mass on the right frontal area. MR imaging revealed a 4 cm sized, multilobulated, strongly-enhancing lesion on the right frontal bone, and CT showed a destructive skull lesio...

A bone defect (2.S-cm) was created onthe middle po rtion of the r...

Gingival recession is one of the most common soft tissue problems, especially when it hinders the esthetics of a patient. Gingival recession can further lead to root caries, sensitivity, and difficulty in plaque control. Moreover, exposed roots are prone to abrasion and erosion. Periodontal plastic surgery is one of the emerging fields, which helps to meet such soft tissue problems. Currently, ...

Anterolateral thigh flap (ALT flap) is first found and used by Song in 1984. Classified the perforator type flaps, ALT flaps blood supplied perforators of descending branch lateral circumflex artery. The choice many cases, those need a large soft tissue for reconstruction, especially cervico facial area thanks to advantages flap: constants relievable anatomic structure, supply, flexible use as ...

Dental implants are becoming the treatment of choice to replace missing teeth, especially if the adjacent teeth are free of restorations. When minimal bone width is present, implant placement becomes a challenge and often resulting in recession and dehiscence around the implant that leads to subsequent gingival recession. To correct such defect, the author turned to soft tissue autografting and...

Juvenile musculoaponeurotic fibromatoses are benign tumors which arise from musculoaponeurotic stromal cells. They rarely occur in lower extremity and more rarely in children. They are locally invasive tumors with a high incidence of recurrence after surgery. Hence, wide local excision is the treatment of choice for such tumors. However, complex reconstruction is often required to cover the res...

BACKGROUND The free fibular osteocutaneous flap is a commonly used flap for mandible and buccal mucosa reconstruction in head and neck cancer surgery. However, the skin paddle restriction from the intermuscular septum often limits the soft tissue reconstruction. METHODS We have proposed a new modified chimeric fibular osteocutaneous flap design based on the combination of a traditional fibula...

A 10-year-old, male, neutered whippet was presented with a soft tissue mass located on the medial aspect of the distal right tibia. The mass was 4 cm in diameter and of two months duration. Recent biopsy by the referring veterinarian, prompted by noticeable enlargement, identified the mass as a soft tissue sarcoma. Staging assessments did not reveal any evidence of metastases. Marginal excision...

Successful treatment of infected non union in long bone fractures has always been a challenge. Segmental excision followed by bone transport is one of the common modalities of treatment in such difficult cases. The soft tissue coverage of the resulting wounds was however not well described in the literature. The authors would like to report a simple technique that was used. After segmental bone...
