Therefore, a prosthetic placement is treatment choice to return individual’s confidence producing an acceptable lifelike appearance. Male patient, 31 years old, came history exenteration surgery four months ago on right eye because infection few before. Patient wanted orbital ...

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a skin cancer arising from neurosecretory cells which take part in APUD system. In most cases it is locally growing tumor with significant tendency to local recurrences after surgery. The authors have described four cases MCC localised on the skin of the middle angle of the eye, lower eyelid, auricle and cheek, without nodal metastases. All patients have been surg...

Eyelid reconstruction remains one of the more challenging areas face to reconstruct due its dynamic complexity. They play an essential role in protecting globe, forming a barrier against trauma, excessive light, and pumping tears towards nasolacrimal duct system. A critical understanding anatomy soft tissue reconstructive options is properly eyelid maintain functional cosmetic components.

Sufficient knowledge of eyelid and orbit anatomy is essential for achieving optimal functional and cosmetic results in ophthalmic plastic and reconstructive surgery. Utilizing the surgical techniques used in vivo can result in difficulties in correct exposure and identification of structures in cadavers. Therefore, special techniques are required to perform appropriate post-mortem anatomical di...

genital elephantiasis is caused by a variety of infective and non infective causes leading to blockage of lymphatic. we are presenting a rare case of recurrent unilateral vulval elephantiasis which has recurred after initial reconstructive surgery. a 38 year old female presented with vulval swelling and on examination there was gross unilateral vulval enlargement. fnac (fine needle aspiration c...

Radiotherapy represents a major problem in facial surgery. Orbital and periorbital radiation therapy causes a contraction of the soft tissues. Scarring with ectropion is the most severe complication, with shrinking of the anterior lamella, skin dystrophy, muscle atrophy, and alteration of the remaining soft tissues. Goals for reconstruction include correction of distorted orbitofacial tissues a...

phyllodes tumors are biphasic fibroepithelial neoplasms of the breast. while the surgical management of these relatively uncommon tumors has been addressed in the literature, few reports have commented on the surgical approach to tumors greater than ten centimetres in diameter – the giant phyllodes tumor. we report a case of giant breast tumors and discuss the techniques utilized for pre-operat...
