0/6.5 prism diopters (pd) versus 31.87/21.23pd; P = 0.001/0.015) and divergence (3.00/1.50pd versus 18.37/12.83pd; P = 0.000/0.001) to the healthy cohort. Those with chronic fracture had lower convergence (15.71/5.00pd; P = 0.01/0.001) and divergence (12.29/4.71pd; P = 0.04/0.002) when compared with healthy subjects, but better function than acute patients. Acute fracture patients reported greater symptomatology than chronic (mean score 18.8 versus 4.6; P = 0.003) or healthy (5.0; P = 0.02) groups, but there was no difference between chronic and healthy groups (P = 0.87). Assessment took <10 minutes. Per patient software cost was <$70. Mild eyestrain related to therapy was self-resolving in all cases. Orthoptic therapy may improve fusion and motility following orbital fracture. This protocol serves as basis for prospective work.Orthoptic therapy may improve fusion and motility following orbital fracture.

The clinical behavior of CGCG can vary from a slow-growing, painless lesion to fast-growing and locally destructive. When such a lesion involves the mandible, this can be quite debilitating for the patient, inhibiting oral intake and requiring an extensive resection and bone graft reconstruction. The authors present a case of effectively decreasing the surgical morbidity associated with a large and rapidly growing CGCG of the mandible in a pediatric patient. Neoadjuvant immunotherapy with denosumab (human monoclonal antibody) facilitated treatment of the tumor without the need for a large resection which would have otherwise necessitated a vascularized bony mandibular reconstruction. Consideration of neoadjuvant medical management of CGCG as the primary treatment is advocated. Secondary Coronal Synostosis (SCS) in patients operated for non-syndromic Sagittal Craniosynostosis is a postoperative phenomenon with unclear implications. The aim of this study was to investigate whether SCS is a negative or a benign occurrence in the postoperative course. The authors hypothesized that SCS is related to reduced cranial growth and intracranial hypertension. Thirty-one patients operated for SC at an early age with the H-craniectomy technique were included in the study. Associations between SCS and cranial shape, growth, and signs of intracranial hypertension were analyzed. Intracranial volume distribution was assessed by measuring partial intracranial volumes defined by skull base landmarks. A total of 12/31 patients developed SCS during the postoperative course. The presence of SCS was associated with a higher prevalence of gyral impressions and a larger normalization of Cranial Index due to less growth in the anteroposterior plane. The SCS group had a smaller postoperative intracranial voial volume distribution was assessed by measuring partial intracranial volumes defined by skull base landmarks. A total of 12/31 patients developed SCS during the postoperative course. The presence of SCS was associated with a higher prevalence of gyral impressions and a larger normalization of Cranial Index due to less growth in the anteroposterior plane. The SCS group had a smaller postoperative intracranial volume due to less posterior intracranial volume as well as less growth in head circumference. Whether this is a growth restriction caused by the SCS or a secondary effect of less primary brain growth remains to be determined. However, the correlation between SCS, less cranial growth and gyral impressions does imply that SCS should be taken into consideration during clinical follow-up as a potentially adverse event.Treating frontal sinusitis refractory to endoscopic sinus surgery and complicating frontal bone defect remains a challenge. One surgical option determined is free flap transfer, which has the versatility to accommodate adequate sinus obliteration and reconstruct skin and bone defects. After successful free flap transfer, forehead recessus deformity can emerge as an esthetic problem for patients waiting for cranioplasty. Hence, the authors examine three cases in which they performed free latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous (LDM) flaps for chronic frontal sinusitis with frontal bone defect. All LDM flaps survived without complications, and all patients achieved passable forehead contours without cranioplasty and with no occurrence of infection. T-705 chemical structure In our procedure, the muscle portion of the LDM flap was used to obliterate the frontal sinus, which is similar to conventional free LDM flap. Conversely, our procedure also uses the de-epithelialized skin paddle of the LDM flap filled with the frontal bone defect, which is distinct from conventional free LDM flap. Thus, preventing postoperative forehead recessus deformity has been the identified as primary advantage of our procedure. The use of the free de-epithelialized LDM flap transfer fulfills two goals controlling chronic frontal sinusitis and restoring a passable forehead contour.The aim of this study was to compare the biomechanical osseointegration of titanium implants after guided bone regeneration (GBR) with a hydroxyapatite graft, deproteinized bovine bone graft, human-derived allograft, and calcium sulfate bone graft. Thirty-two female Sprague Dawley rats were divided into four groups, each containing eight (n = 8) rats hydroxyapatide (HA), deproteinized bovine bone graft (DPBB), allograft (ALG), and calcium sulfate. Bone defects were created in the tibia of the rats, which were grafted with HA, DPBB, ALG, or CP bone grafts for the purpose of GBR. Ninety days after surgery, machine-surfaced titanium implants were inserted into the area where GBR had been undertaken. After 90 days of the surgical insertion of the implants, the rats were sacrificed, the implants with surrounding bone tissue were removed, and biomechanical osseointegration (N/cm) analysis was performed. No statistically significant differences were found among the groups in osseointegration (N/cm) three months after the GBR procedures (P > 0.
