Treatment of children with Pierre Robin Sequence (PRS) having a hypoplastic mandible and upper airway distress after birth may consist of external distraction devices. Shape anomalies of the permanent molars and positional changes due to the surgery have been documented. The aim of this study is to compare the long-term effects (>5 years) on the...

Tongue tumours staged cT2 (TNM8) encompass a wide volumetric range. Management of the post-resection defect may be influenced by tumour size, location, patient factors, and neck management. This may impact margin control rates, functional outcomes, and survival. We analysed cT2 tongue SCC ’s undergoing wide local excision (WLE) ± reconstruction to understand...

Introduction: Globally, hard and soft-tissue loss from disease and trauma is often replaced by free-tissue flap transfer requiring blood vessel micro-anastomosis. These microsurgical anastomoses are performed by devices or hand-suturing, the latter being technique sensitive and has a steep learning curve, to ensure proper vessel alignment and leakage-free....
