Neurosensory disturbances of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN), or the lingual nerve (LN), are commonly reported in cases of third mandibular molar impaction. Cases are usually documented by use of imagistic methods. Dissection proofs of the detailed anatomy in such cases are rare, if not absent. It is reported here a dissection study in a case of an impacted (buccoangular) third mandibular mol...

•Intraoperative injury of the obturator nerve is not an infrequent complication of gynecological surgeries.•This injury can occur in association with pelvic lymphadenectomy for uterine or cervical cancer.•This manuscript demonstrates an alternative technique for the obturator nerve repair, when primary end to end anastomosis is not possible.

Abstract Acute soft tissue trauma to the head and neck is a common reason for emergency department presentation should be appropriately evaluated by facial plastic surgeon. The evaluation of patient who has suffered always include comprehensive nerve exam carry low threshold suspicion parotid duct injury when involving cheek. Injuries can result in significant long-term functional, cosmetic, em...

conclusions in selected recipients with psc, dd reconstruction is a safe and efficacious technique, with long-term clinical outcomes comparable to ryh. background while roux-en-y hepaticojejunostomy (ryh) is the common anastomotic technique for liver transplantation (lt) in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (psc), duct-to-duct (dd) reconstruction may be used if the recipient common b...

Malignant trigeminal neuralgia due to perineural spread along the branches of the trigeminal nerve, is known to commonly occur secondary to squamous cell carcinomas, lymphomas and adenoid cystic carcinomas in the head and neck region. Rarely metastases to the trigeminal nerve have been reported in breast cancer, prostate cancer and colon cancer. To the best of our knowledge trigeminal neuropath...

The development of crown architecture strongly affects tree growth and survival. Growth and death of primary branches (those branching off from the main stem) and secondary branches (those from a primary branch) in the lowest part of the crown were investigated for Picea glehnii in an even-aged plantation. Probability of death of a primary branch decreased as the length between its basal locati...

We present five cases of patients diagnosed of a facial nerve tumoral lesion localised at the Geniculate Ganglion and all of which underwent surgical resection. The initial symptoms were in four cases of peripheral facial nerve paralysis and in the fifth case facial paresis. Two trans-mastoid extralabyrinthine approaches were performed and one through a combined path (middle fossa and trans-mas...
