Refractory infections are not common in head and neck region. As gossypiboma (retained surgical sponges) is also rare in head and neck surgeries, it is generally ignored as a potential diagnosis. In this article we aimed to call attention to gossypiboma cases in refractory maxillary infections. We present three cases of retained surgical sponges after head and neck surgery occurred in between 2003 and 2011. We also discussed the possible causes and prevention strategies for them.

We report the surgery of a bicanalicular laceration of the lacrimal system in which a simplified annular intubation of silicone tube had been used. After passing the silicone tube through the canalicular system guided by the prolene suture, the tip of the silicone tube was stuck and advancing it through the lach - rymal system was not possible. Then this threaded 6-0 prolene suture was tied to the wall of the silicone tube at the tip and pulled gently from the opposite side. The silicone tube was threaded easily with no obstacle. We hope that our result in this case will create an alternative way for surgeons while repairing canalicular system lacerations

In this study we report our experience with a gravely neglected case of rhinophyma. Rhinophyma is a disorder characterized by hypertrophy of the sebaceous glands, mononuclear infiltration and fibrous tissue deposition in the nasal skin. Clinically, the disorder manifests itself as disproportionate enlargement and severe disfigurement of the nose. As for the treatment, excision with cold knife, dermatome, dermabrasion, cauter knife and ultrasound blade, and reconstruction with skin graft, flap or secondary intention has been described in the literature. Presented in this study is a neglected and oversized case of rhinophyma. The hypertrophic mass sizing 7x6x3 cm has been excised from the supraperichondral plane. A similiar lesion with the size of 8x6x2 cm was attached to the main mass via a cutaneous pedicle on the left alar region. Resultant defect was reconstructed via a full thickness cutaneous graft harvested from the inguinal region and healed uneventfully. Along with this case report, available treatment alternatives were reviewed and their indications interpereted.

In literature there are reports on alleviation of depressive symptoms and anxiety levels and increased quality of life in individuals who underwent breast reduction. However, the relation of this improvement with patient satisfaction is unclear. The purpose of our study is to fulfill the aforementioned objective. In this study, A total of 72 female patients who were operated for only reduction mammoplasty between 2011 and 2015 were included. Technical details regarding the surgery were recorded. Patients were applied Beck Depression Scale (BDS) and Beck Anxiety Scale (BAS) preoperatively. In the 6 th postoperative month, Beck scales were repeated and patient satisfaction was evaluated via “Visual Analogue Scale “(VAS). Also, surgical outcome has been graded by three other plastic surgeons from one to 10. Data were evaluated statistically. Apparent postoperative alleviation BDS and BAS scores was significant at postoperative 6th month. Average VAS scores for the patients’ postoperative satisfaction with their surgical outcome was 8.8. These scores by three other plastic surgeons were found to be 7.6. Individual satisfaction scores and professional evaluation scores were found to yield positive correlation. The tissue amount excised was not found to be correlated with patient age or satisfaction, however it was found to be negatively correlated with professional evaluation. Moreover, regression analyses revealed patient satisfaction was not influenced by anything other than the surgery itself. In other words, preoperative BDS and BAS scores were not found to be predictors of postoperative patient satisfaction. To our findings, although depression and anxiety symptoms improve after breast reduction surgery, patients are not influenced by their preoperative psychological condition when assessing their surgical outcomes. This important finding may be a possible preoperative relief for the surgeon who is dealing with an anxious or depressive breast reduction patient.

The reasons and types of facial fractures and their treatment approaches are different, depending on the age group, and these fractures constitute an important part of the practice of plastic surgery. Demographic characteristics, etiologies of fractures, fracture types, and treatment approaches were evaluated in patients who underwent an operation due to facial fractures between 2006 and 2016. A total of 300 patients were operated on at our clinic over a period of ten years. The reason for the fracture was often motor vehicle collisions in the adult patient group, while the reason was falls and accidents in the pediatric age group. Mandibular fractures ranked first among other types of fracture and orthopedic injuries ranked first among systemic injuries. The preferred treatment approach was open surgery in adult patients and conservative therapies in the pediatric age group. The present study carried out a retrospective review of 300 cases and demographic characteristics, etiologies, fracture types, accompanying injuries, and treatment approaches were presented in consideration of the current literature.

Due to its unique structure, oesophageal defects are of the hardest to reconstruct. Since local flap options and their success are limited free tissue transfers are considered the treatment of choice for reconstruction of partial or circumferential defects left by cervical oesophagectomy. While free jejunum flaps are regarded as the most appropriate solution, its donor site morbidity and increased risk associated with its harvest tend the surgeons to prefer a skin flap instead. This study presents our experience with the radial forearm free flap for oesophageal reconstruction along with a detailed description of the techniques utilized and an 11 patient case series. This flap technique is a single stage solution for reconstruction of oesophageal defects yielded by malignant tumour ablation, and it has distinct advantages such as consistent flap anatomy, straightforward dissection technique, long and wide vascular pedicle, and thin and pliable skin paddle. We believe that with good knowledge of flap anatomy and pertinent execution of microsurgical techniques, free radial forearm flap is an effective and reliable option for post-ablative oesophageal reconstruction in the elderly patients. Also, thanks to the pliable skin paddle and long vascular pedicle, radial forearm flap is one of the most frequently preferred skin flaps for oesophageal reconstruction.

The incidence of malignant scalp tumors which require radical excision increases with age. Reconstructing a multilayer scalp defect is a challenge for the reconstructive teams because of the soft tissue variability and paucity of available tissue. There is a wide range of options for treating scalp defects, from primary closure to free tissue transfer. In this study, nine patients who underwent reconstruction of large scalp defects after malignant tumor resection by using free tissue transfer were evaluated and reported. Eight patients died within two years after the surgery due to local recurrence (%88.9), and only one patient is still alive without any problems with a mean follow-up of 32 months. Many free tissue transfers have been reported on, with varied results. In the postoperative period, local and systemic complications can be seen, which do not correlate with age. Local tumor recurrence is another serious problem. Tumor complications and recurrences are the factors which affect the survival rates in patients. In this study we report on the scalp defect reconstruction after tumor resection with results and survival rates.

Selective immunoglobulin A deficiency (SIgAD) is the most common of all primary immunodeficiency diseases; however, the pathogenesis has not been fully understood. Although most people with SIgAD are asymptomatic, some may present with recurrent infections; such as respiratory disorders, gastrointestinal tracts disorders, and allergic disorders. Herein, we report a case with SIgAD who presented with the complaints of pruritus, dental caries and chronic sinopulmonary infections.

Respiratory Epithelial Adenomatoid Hamartoma (REAH) is a type of hamartoma characterized by prominent glandular proliferations lined with ciliated respiratory epithelium originating from the surface epithelium. REAH should be differentiated from inflammatory nasal polyp, inverted papilloma and adenocarcinoma to avoid from more aggressive surgery then is needed for the REAH and to avoid from unnecessary long-term follow-up with medical treatments. In this report, we present a case of REAH who was followed up with topical and systemic steroids for years with the misdiagnosis of inflamatory nasal polyposis and discuss the clinical, radiological and histopathological features of the disease at increasing importance in recent years.

Paterson-Kelly syndrome is characterized with iron deficiency anemia and esophagial web. Association between Paterson-Kelly and Celiac disease is not well-known. Especially in our country, there is insufficient data about these two diseases. We report a case with a complaint of dysphagia and diagnosed as Paterson-Kelly syndrome with celiac disease. Dysphagia was resolved with bougie dilation, oral iron supplement and gluten free diet. We want to emphasize the importance of screening for celiac disease in patient with dysphagia and iron-deficieny anemia.
