Article Abstract
In an 18-year-old boy, the middle segment of the mandible was removed because of a locally aggressive tumour. The reconstruction became infected and was lost, resulting in 2 separately-moving mandible parts and oral disability. For the second reconstruction, skeletal fixation with osteosynthesis plates, dental fixation with a stabilization frame and intermaxillary fixation were used. Preparation for returning the jaws to their original position was facilitated by three-dimensional simulation software. After a successful second reconstruction, an implant-supported removable bridge was eventually placed.

Patients' quality of life and function evaluation after successful management of infected segmental bone defects with the induced membrane technique.
Eur J Orthop Surg Traumatol
September 2025
University of Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom.
Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the health perception of quality of life and function in patients with segmental bone defects (SBD) of the femur or tibia treated with the Induced Membrane Technique (IMT) and achieved bone healing and infection control.
Methods: This cross-sectional cohort study was conducted at a single referral center. Patients with infected SBD of the femur or tibia treated with IMT were included if they had at least 12 months of bone healing and no evidence of infection.
More than Meets the Annulus: Identification and Quantification of the Inferomedial Extraocular Muscle Raphe.
Ophthalmic Plast Reconstr Surg
September 2025
Purpose: During endoscopic endonasal access to small intraconal masses deep in the orbital apex, a line of fusion between inferior and medial recti is encountered distal to the termination of the common tendinous ring. The intraoperatively viewed length of this segment has not been quantified. To assist clinical recognition of this structure, our study quantifies its length and proposes the standardized nomenclature term of inferomedial extraocular muscle raphe (IM-EOMR).

J Refract Surg
September 2025
Purpose: To discuss the technique and outcome of what the authors called the "flap-in-flap" technique and report its safety as a procedure for correction of post-laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) myopic regression.
Methods: Seven eyes of 4 patients were included in this study. All patients had previously undergone LASIK for compound myopic astigmatism using the Moria M2 micro-keratome (Moria) 8 to 12 years prior to presentation.
In-the-Bag Behavior of a New Aspheric Hydrophobic Acrylic Toric Intraocular Lens.
J Refract Surg
September 2025
Purpose: To evaluate tilt, decentration, and axial stability of the Clareon toric intraocular lens (TIOL) (CNW0T3-9; Alcon Laboratories, Inc) over a 6-month follow-up period.
Methods: A single-center, prospective, interventional clinical trial was conducted with a study population of 130 eyes from 82 patients who received a Clareon TIOL. Tilt, decentration, and the aqueous depth were determined preoperatively and at 1 week and 6 months postoperatively using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (Casia 2; Tomey Corporation).
Impact of ICL Fixation Direction on Postoperative Vault and Prediction Accuracy Using the KS Formula.
J Refract Surg
September 2025
Purpose: To compare postoperative vault measurements between horizontal and vertical fixation of the Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) (KS-AquaPORT; STAAR Surgical) when its size is determined using the KS formula.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 2,343 eyes from 1,275 patients who underwent myopic ICL implantation. Pre-operative anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) (CASIA 2; Tomey Corporation) was performed in both horizontal and vertical orientations.
