Small nasal defects may be covered by skin grafts or small local flaps while larger nasal defects require more complex flap coverage techniques as using tissue expanders, prefabricated flaps or free flaps. The forehead flap has been used for centuries and remains a workhorse flap for reconstruction of large and complex nasal defects. Aim: evaluate the feasibility and versatility of forehead flap for resurfacing nasal defects. Materials and Methods: 12 patients underwent coverage of nasal defects after trauma or tumor excision using forehead flaps. All flaps needed a second stage for flap separation 3 weeks after the time of operation. The size of the harvested flap, the harvesting time, results of transferred flaps, patient satisfaction and flap-related complications were analyzed. Results: 12 patients (10 males and 2 females) underwent reconstruction of different nasal defects using 12 forehead flaps. The overall complications occurred in 2 patients. The remaining 10 patients showed no complications and passed an uneventful follow-up period. 7 Patients were very satisfied, 4 were satisfied and only one patient was not satisfied as she was 23 years old young female and was subjected to human bite. Follow-up periods ranged from 6 to 12 months. Conclusion: Nasal defects can successfully be managed with the forehead flap. Probably, the flap provides the best result due to the good matching of the skin in terms of color, texture, and thickness. Also, despite the increasing use of free flaps, the forehead flap is still a valid and safe option for nasal defects coverage that allows good aesthetics and functional outcomes.展开更多

However, treatment of the glabella is associated with injection-related complications. The safety of injections can be increased through a thorough understanding of the anatomy and precise injection planes. The authors propose a 3-point injection technique for forehead augmentation in Asian patients that uses CHAP-hyaluronic acid (CHAP-HA) filler. The longevity of the filler was assessed using high-resolution ultrasound (HRU) imaging. Fifteen patients were examined using HRU before and immediately after treatment and at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. As evident in HRU imaging, CHAP-HA remained visible within surrounding tissue for 6.4 ± 3.7 months. The mean Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale rating was 2.4 ± 0.5 immediately after treatment, 2.8 ± 0.3 at 1 month, 2.7 ± 0.5 at 3 months, 2.1 ± 0.6 at 6 months, and 1.5 ± 0.6 at 12 months. Minimal side effects were reported. The authors demonstrated that CHAP-HA filler may be an optimal candidate for forehead filler augmentation using a 3-point injection technique.展开更多

Although botulinum toxin type A (BoNTA) has been shown to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and allow patients to have a smoother and hence younger upper face, it cannot help to improve the other aspects that determine overall skin quality. Objective: This case series aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy of combining BoNTA injections with a biorevitalizing treatment (NCTF®135HA) on skin aging signs and quality using a split face approach. Patients and Methods: A total of eight patients from 30 to 55 years old were treated with botulinum toxin type A combined with NCTF®-135HA or alone. Results: At D60, clinical skin quality scoring showed that NCTF®135HA injection significantly reduced wrinkles and enhanced skin homogeneity, hydration, firmness, and radiance. The Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) by the evaluator at D60 reported mean scores of 2375 (much improved) on the side of the face treated with BoNTA + NCTF®-135HA compared to the side of the face without NCTF®135HA. According to patients, the NCTF®135HA injections resulted in a significantly better aesthetic improvement score on D60 (mean score of 2.5 compared to 0.125 without NCTF®135HA, p 0.001). Conclusions: Our findings show that combining a biorevitalizing treatment with a BoNTA injection can significantly improve the skin’s overall appearance and decrease the wrinkle score when compared to the BoNTA injections alone. The results suggest that the combinatory strategy is effective, safe, and associated with a high level of patient satisfaction.展开更多

Some use skin grafts, other microvascular flaps, but local flaps for coverage of forehead skin are still the cornerstone principle in providing the ideal skin color and texture. In this article, the forehead is classified into surgical reconstructive subunits. These subunits are set according to the surrounding structures. Flaps are rectangular in shape in mobility in order to follow the natural lines of the forehead.展开更多

It is pathologically characterized by direct shunting of the intracranial artery and vein, which results in cerebral ischemia, intracranial hemorrhage, neural deficit and intracranial murmur. The etiological mechanism of DAVF is not well known, but most researchers think it is associated with congenital abnormal development, especially abnormal development of dural blood vessels at the stage of embryogenesis. Recently, some researchers have found that DAVF is also associated with some acquired factors. This article reports a case who developed DAVF within 2 years after debridement of frontal bone fragmentation, depressed fracture, left frontal lobe contusion and superior sagittal sinus injury due to forehead knife-cut injury. The pathogenic mechanism was explored through a review of the related literatures.展开更多

Then, the conception rate, dystocia rate and reproductive survival rate of the cows in each group, as well as the body size and body weight of new-born calves, were ana- lyzed. The results showed that no significant differences were found in conception rate among different groups （P〉0.05）; there was no significant difference in dystocia rate between the A and C groups （P〉0.05）, but the dystocia rate in the B group was significantly different from those in the A and C groups （P〈0.05）. There were positive correlations between calf forehead width, chest circumference and the dys- tocia rate.展开更多

文摘In the improvement process of local yellow cattle with frozen semen of beef cattle, the cows were grouped according to different cross combinations. Then, the conception rate, dystocia rate and reproductive survival rate of the cows in each group, as well as the body size and body weight of new-born calves, were ana- lyzed. The results showed that no significant differences were found in conception rate among different groups （P〉0.05）; there was no significant difference in dystocia rate between the A and C groups （P〉0.05）, but the dystocia rate in the B group was significantly different from those in the A and C groups （P〈0.05）. There were positive correlations between calf forehead width, chest circumference and the dys- tocia rate.
