Application of buccal fat pads in pack palate relaxing incisions on maxillary growth: a clinical study.

چکیده
OBJECTIVE To observe the impact on maxillary growth of the use of buccal fat pads to pack palate relaxing incisions. METHODS We recruited 30 patients aged 3-4 years with a complete cleft palate. Half (15) of the patients underwent reparative surgery that entailed packing buccal fat pads into the bilateral raw bony surfaces and served as the experimental group. The remaining 15 patients underwent reparative surgery that entailed packing and fixing relaxing incisions with iodoform gauze and served as the control group. After a 5-year follow-up, the differences in data from X-ray cephalometry and upper dental models in the two groups were analyzed using the T test. RESULTS A significant difference (P < 0.05) in maxillary growth was observed between the two groups of children with cleft palate. CONCLUSION The results supported the use of buccal fat pads to pack relaxing incisions which led to improved maxillary development in patients with cleft palate.

For large membrane perforations that develop during sinus-bone grafting, we performed repairs using a pedicled buccal fat pad and a resorbable collagen membrane simultaneously with the bone graft. This study included eight patients. Postoperative maxillary sinusitis developed in two patients, which we managed with incision and drainage, and antibiotics. Ultimately, six patients received 12 impl...
متن کاملReconstruction of partial maxillectomy defect with a buccal fat pad flap and application of 4-hexylresorcinol: a case report
Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is the most common type of malignant neoplasm in the minor salivary gland. The hard palate is a frequently involved site of MEC. The treatment of low-grade MEC on the hard palate is wide local resection with a tumor-free margin. In the present case, the maxillary defect was reconstructed using a buccal fat pad (BFP) flap, followed by application of 4-hexylresorcin...
