We consider the partial order on partitions of integers deened by removal of rim hooks of a given length. The isomorphism between this poset and a product of Young's lattices leads to rim hook versions of Schensted correspondences. Analogous results are given for shifted shapes. A shape, or Young diagram, is a nite order ideal of the lattice P 2 = f(k; l) : k; l 1g. Each shape = f(i; j) : 1 j i...

Many of the genes involved in brain patterning during development are highly conserved in vertebrates and similarities in their expression patterns help to recognize homologous cell types or brain regions. Among these genes, Pax6 and Pax7 are expressed in regionally restricted patterns in the brain and are essential for its development. In the present immunohistochemical study we analyzed the d...

In the study of central nervous system morphogenesis, the identification of new molecular markers allows us to identify domains along the antero-posterior and dorso-ventral (DV) axes. In the past years, the alar and basal plates of the midbrain have been divided into different domains. The precise location of the alar-basal boundary is still under discussion. We have identified Barhl1, Nhlh1 an...

One of the most difficult aspects in rhinoplasty is resolving and preventing functional compromise of the nasal valve area reliably. The nasal valves are crucial for the individual breathing competence of the nose. Structural and functional elements contribute to this complex system: the nasolabial angle, the configuration and stability of the alae, the function of the internal nasal valve, the...

OBJECTIVE To review the indications for, surgical techniques of, and results of vertical lobule division (VLD) of the alar cartilages. DESIGN Prospective study of patients assigned to undergo variations of VLD of the lower lateral cartilages. SETTING Private facial plastic surgery practice in a major university teaching hospital. PATIENTS Twenty-four patients who underwent variations of V...

INTRODUCTION  Refinement of the nose tip can be accomplished by a variety of techniques, but currently, the use of sutures in the nasal tip with conservative resection of the alar cartilage is the most frequently recommended approach. OBJECTIVE  To classify the nasal tip and to demonstrate the interdomal suture applied to nasal tip refinement in the Caucasian nose, as well as to provide a sim...

Primary surgical correction of cleft-lip nose deformity is now well accepted. Despite various surgical techniques proposed, perfect nasal symmetry has not been persistently attained. The main reason is that the maxillary deficiency is frequently overlooked.This paper presents 62 cases of unilateral cleft lip repaired over the last 20 years by using the author's modification of the Millard prima...

Aim: The formation of scars on the face after open septorhinoplasty (SRP) with alar base reduction may disturb patient due to cosmetic concerns. This study aimed compare scar outcomes columella and in patients undergoing SRP.
 Material Method: Twenty-seven who underwent during primary SRP were divided into two groups according intervened area as Columella (CLM) group (n=27) Alar Base (AB) ...
