Objective Measures in Aesthetic and Functional Nasal Surgery: Perspectives on Nasal Form and Function

Facial plast Surg 2010; 26: 320-327DOI: 10.1055/s-0030-1262314ABSTRACTThe outcomes of aesthetic and functional nasal surgery are difficult to assess objectively because of the intricate balance between nasal form and function. Despite historical emphasis on patient-reported subjective measures, objective measures are gaining importance in both research and the current outcomes-driven health care environment. Objective measures currently available have several shortcomings that limit their routine clinical use. In particular, the low correlation between objective and subjective measures poses a major challenge. However, advances in computer, imaging, and bioengineering technology are now setting the stage for the development of innovative objective assessment tools for nasal surgery that ca…

I cant tell you when the last time my period has been. My first form of birth control was the depo shot which completely stopped my period. I love it but, due to the worry of side effects and long term use my Dr. and I agreed to go onto the Mirena IUD because it seemed safer as far as reversing to be able…

Intraoral Reconstruction Using Local and Regional Flaps

Seminars in Plastic Surgery 2010; 24: 198-211DOI: 10.1055/s-0030-1255337ABSTRACTChoosing a pedicled flap to reconstruct an intraoral defect depends on the size and the anatomic position of the tissue defect. The goals are to restore form and function and minimize donor site morbidity. Regional pedicled flaps available for intraoral reconstruction are the buccal fat pad flap, facial artery musculomucosal flap, platysma, pectoralis major, temporalis muscle flap, and trapezius flaps. We give a concise illustration of anatomy, our harvesting technique, indications, and eventual pitfalls for each of the six flaps.[...]© Thieme Medical PublishersGet connected:Table of contents  |  Abstract  |  Full text (Source: Seminars in Plastic Surgery)
