A 19 year-old male with facial hemiatrophy who underwent the combined surgical techniques of craniofacial surgery for the bony defect and microvascular surgery for the soft tissue defect showed a successful result at 11 year follow-up.

Prostate cancer is second most common with frequent metastasis occurring to bone. We report a unique case of soft tissue and bony orbital from carcinoma prostate. The patient presented after defaulting the advised treatment. He responded well radiation therapy lesion regressed completely. Our was diagnosed have an oligo-metastatic non-compliant treatment us proptosis, which later be prostate ca...

BACKGROUND/AIM Filling a bone defect with bone substitution materials is a therapy of choice, but the infiltration of connective tissue from the mucoperiostal flap may compromise a healing of bone substitutions with bony wall defects. Application of membrane as a barrier is indicated as a solution to this problem. The aim of this study was to show a pathohistological view of bone regeneration a...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Middle ear surgery is often performed through the external auditory canal, and the CT appearance of the external auditory canal after transcanal middle ear surgery can mimic erosive pathology such as carcinoma, external auditory canal cholesteatoma, or necrotizing external otitis. We reviewed the CT findings in a group of patients following transcanal surgery to highlight...

Introduction: Skull-based osteomyelitis is bony infection which generally originates from inadequately treated chronic infection, adjoining tissue infection or after trauma.Case: 11 month female child had a trivial fall while standing near a bucket. The child developed fracture of right clavicle and left orbital swelling which was inadequately treated. This resulted in in spread of infection to...

Injured growth plate cartilage is often repaired by bony tissue resulting in impaired bone growth in children. Using a rat injury model, our previous studies show that following the injury-induced initial inflammatory response, an influx of mesenchymal-like cells occurs within the growth plate injury site prior to formation of bony tissue. As platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-BB) is a potent...
