Reconstructive Facial Surgery Techniques

Achieving durable nasal tip stabilization remains a central challenge in septorhinoplasty, particularly in patients with weak cartilage support or significant dorsal septal deviation. Conventional septal extension grafts and suspension-based techniques may provide initial projection control; however, indirect load tra…

Maksillofasiyal protezler, çene ve yüz bölgesinde doğuştan, gelişimsel, travmatik ya da patolojik nedenlerle oluşan doku kayıplarının rehabilitasyonunda önemli bir yer tutar. Bu tür defektler yalnızca estetik değil, aynı zamanda fonksiyonel ve psikososyal sorunlara da yol açmaktadır. Günümüzde dijital teknolojilerin g…

Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the morphometric dimensions of the middle ear cleft in otosclerosis patients using highresolution computed tomography (HRCT). Specifically, we sought to classify sinus tympani (ST) configurations according to the Marchioni system and analyze whether a significant anatomical correlati…

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of ceramic composition, resin cement shade, and tooth-shaded background on the optical properties and color differences of high translucent (HT) lithium-based ceramics. METHODS: A total of 192 specimens were prepared from four CAD/CAM ceramics: advanced lithium disi…

Reconstruction of nasal defects after basal cell carcinoma (BCC) excision must restore the contour and skin quality across topographic subunits that differ in thickness, sebaceous quality, and mobility. The authors evaluated the early postoperative scar quality and its association with nasal location, subunit burden,…

The pterygopalatine fossa (PPF) is a deep, anatomically complex midfacial space that serves as a major neurovascular crossroads. Owing to its confined boundaries and multidirectional communications, it is difficult to visualize using conventional teaching materials. This study aimed to develop a physically enlarged ne…
