As outlined in the scope of work, the goal of this investigation is to characterize the compositional variation in the metavolcanic rocks and the ceramic clays that would have been used by the prehistoric inhabitants of the Fort Bragg vicinity. This goal will be achieved by examining the chemical and mineralogical composition of 50 rock samples from various quarries in central North Carolina, a...

BACKGROUND The Le Fort I maxillary osteotomy approach for skull base tumor removal in the pediatric age group has not been widely discussed in the literature except for sporadic case reports and limited case series. OBJECTIVES To review our experience with the Le Fort I osteotomy and to propose that it be used as an alternative approach because of its many advantages for the removal of tumors...

AIM This study assessed the causes and incidence of miniplate removal during a 5-year period after Le Fort I osteotomy. PATIENTS AND METHODS One hundred forty-two patients had plates inserted for fixation of the maxilla after Le Fort I osteotomy between 2001 and 2004. The Le Fort I segment was rigidly fixed with four 2-mm titanium miniplates and 16 screws. They were followed 1 to 5 years for ...
