A 12-year-old neutered male pit bull crossbreed dog was presented because of a right caudal maxillary swelling. Computed tomographic imaging of the skull and revealed a right maxillary mass with lysis of the medial wall of the right orbit and rostral aspect of the zygomatic bone. A biopsy was done, and histopathology results were consistent with a mixed odontogenic tumor.

Background: Dental rehabilitation is considered challenging to achieve whenever composite scapulo-dorsal free flaps are used to reconstruct medium-to-large maxillary defects due to the fact that bone quality and quantity may be low, which may preclude placement of conventional dental implants. In such cases, current options for dental rehabilitation include printed patient-specific subperiosteal implants or zygomatic implants.

Methods: The authors report three cases of maxillary tumour resections that led to medium-to-large defects reconstructed using composite scapulo-dorsal free flaps.

Introduction: The infratemporal fossa (ITF) represents a complex anatomical region of critical relevance in skull base surgery, particularly due to its involvement in the extension of neoplastic lesions. Surgical access to this region remains technically demanding. The orbitozygomatic (OZ) and transmandibular (TM) approaches offer distinct anatomical perspectives and operative corridors.

The brain arteriovenous malformation (BAVM) within language-eloquent area poses a significant surgical challenge, demanding meticulous planning to ensure both preservation of language function and curative resection. This report details the successful microsurgical resection of a Spetzler-Martin grade II BAVM located in Wernicke's area in a 51-year-old male, ruptured three weeks ago and characterized by mild anomia. Following thorough discussion, the patient elected for microsurgery, providing informed consent, and the procedure was approved by the ethics committee.
