The IPAS became narrower, and the hyoid bone moved downward after surgery. The decreased IPAS was positively correlated with retraction of root apex and proclination of the mandibular incisors. CONCLUSION To establish precise surgical treatment objectives, a balance between the amount of intrusion and changes in axis should be sought after considering anatomical limitations. Mandibular ASO should be performed with caution in skeletal Class II patients vulnerable to airway-related problems.BACKGROUND Intracranial fibrosarcoma is an extremely rare neoplasm in the central nervous system. Insofar there were only sporadic case reports describing its features. The purpose of this study is to review the clinical and surgical features of cases who were treated in our department. METHOD The authors retrospectively reviewed and detailed the clinical and surgical data obtained from 5 patients with fibrosarcoma who underwent treatment at our institute between January 2009 and January 2019. RESULTS There were 3 males and 2 females including 2 juvenile and 3 senior patients. The most frequent sign was intermittent pain and vomiting. The location of the tumor included middle fossa, thalamus and midbrain, sellar and suprasellar region and right parietal-occipital lobe. Surgical observation demonstrated the consistency of the tumor was tenacious with abundant blood supply. SR10221 in vivo Gross total resection was achieved in 2 cases. Pathological analysis showed spindle cells in a herringbone form with positive Vimentin staining in all 5 cases, with the absence of GFAP or S-100. All 5 patients were deceased eventually after a varied period of time after the first surgery. CONCLUSION Intracranial fibrosarcoma was a highly malignant entity presented in the central nervous system. Surgery still remains the first-line treatment followed by radiotherapy, however, the prognostic outcome was very poor. Future studies should be more focused on accumulation of the relevant information on this disease thus hopefully in assisting to developing more optimized treatment.Inappropriate fusion of the cranial sutures leads to craniosynostosis and the subsequent skull rigidity can cause many developmental and structural problems. Cephalohematoma is a subperiosteal collection of blood commonly associated with birth trauma or instrument-assisted delivery and is one of the most frequently reported fetal injuries in Caesarian section procedures. There have been very few cases reported of patients with both scaphocephaly due to sagittal craniosynostosis and cephalohematoma and no reports of scaphocephaly with bilateral cephalohematoma as of the date of this report. The current literature suggests that the two conditions are potentially associated, either through mechanical pathways involving trauma or through a complex interplay of growth factors. The authors present a case of bilateral cephalohematoma with scaphocephaly secondary to progressive sagittal craniosynostosis.BACKGROUND Alveolar clefts give rise to many aesthetic and functional problems among affected patients. Therefore, surgical adjustments of the bony defective anomalies are important. The authors performed secondary bone grafts and analyzed the effects particularly on the nasal septum and maxillary area (midface). METHODS The patients who had alveolar bone grafts were retrospectively reviewed with pre/postoperative 3-dimensional computed tomography; the measurements included distances between the anterior nasal spine (ANS) and the vertical midline, angles between the nasal septum and the transverse line, and angles between the floor of the pyriform aperture and the transverse line. RESULTS A total number of 23 patients were finally included in the study. The mean age of the patients was 9.7 ± 1.95 years (range, 7-14 years). The mean distance between the ANS and the vertical midline was 5.3 ± 4.70 mm/4.9 ± 4.15 mm pre/postoperatively, showing the mean paired difference of 0.4 ± 0.89 mm (P  less then  0.05). The mean angles between the nasal septum and the transverse line and between the floor of the pyriform aperture and the transverse line were 64.5 ± 14.69°/65.9 ± 13.73° and 21.7 ± 8.94°/11.5 ± 7.03° pre/postoperatively, showing the mean paired differences of -1.4 ± 2.78° and 10.1 ± 8.20°, respectively (both P  less then  0.05). CONCLUSION The results suggest that secondary alveolar bone grafting has expanded effects on the adjacent midfacial structures.AIM In this study, we aimed to compare the effects of standard verbal information in the preoperative period and the information by visual expression and physical applications in the development of agitation, edema and ecchymosis in the postoperative period. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was carried out in 60 ASA I-II patients who were going to undergo open rhinoplasty by plastic surgery. In the Preoperative Anesthetic Assessment the patients were divided into two groups as the patients given standard verbal information (Group S; n = 30) and those informed with a catalog which contains visuals (Group V; n = 30) In the preoperative period, anxiety levels of the patients were evaluated. Standard anesthesia induction was performed in both groups after standard monitoring. Patients were monitored in the post-anesthesia care unit and ward. Patient’s extubation quality, presence of postoperative agitation and periorbital edema and ecchymosis at the 6th, 12th, 18th, and 24th hours were evaluated. RESULTS No significant difference was found between the groups in terms of intraoperative and postoperative MAP, HR, extubation quality, presence of recovery agitation, postoperative pain, development edema and ecchymosis (P > 0.05). Significant positive correlation was found between post-extubation MAP and edema scores at the 16th and 24th hours postoperatively and between the post-anesthesia care unit entry MAP and ecchymosis at the 24th postoperative hours independently of the groups (r = 0.27; P = 0.038, r = 0.302; P = 0.019, r = 0.345; P = 0.007, respectively). RESULT In our study, it was concluded that detailed visual information and physical application in the preoperative period among rhinoplasty patients had no effect on the incidence of postoperative agitation, development of edema and ecchymosis.
