Pediatric Orbital and Skull Base Pathology
Pediatric orbital and skull base pathologies encompass a spectrum of inflammatory, sporadic, syndromic, and neoplastic processes that require a broad and complex clinical approach for both medical and surgical treatment. Given their complexity and often multicompartment involvement, a multidisciplinary approach for diagnosis, patient and family counseling, and ultimately treatment provides the best patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes. Advances in minimally invasive surgical approaches, including endoscopic endonasal and transorbital approaches allows for more targeted surgical approaches through smaller corridors be...

Gender Affirming Facial Surgery –Anatomy and Procedures for Facial Masculinization
For some patients, feminine facial features may cause significant gender dysphoria. Multiple nonsurgical and surgical techniques exist to masculinize facial features. Nonsurgical techniques include testosterone supplementation and dermal fillers. Surgical techniques include soft tissue manipulation, synthetic implants, regenerative scaffolding, or bony reconstruction. Many techniques are derived from experience with cisgender patients, but are adapted with special considerations to differing anatomy between cisgender and transgender men and women. Currently, facial masculinization is less commonly sought than feminization,...

Gender-Affirming Facial Surgery
The face is inherently the most visible and arguably the most socially significant component of an individual ’s identity. Our facial form is how we represent ourselves to the external world and shapes how we progress through it. As a social species, humans have survived and thrived based on our ability to interact with those around us and form close-knit societal groups. Complex facial expression and our ability to decern the minutia of subtle facial ques were integral to our survival advantage and have been slowly perfected over millennia.

Benign Intraoral Soft Tissue Lesions in Children
Benign intraoral soft tissue pathology in pediatric patients includes developmental, traumatic, inflammatory, and infectious lesions. Common pathology includes gingival cysts, mucoceles, fibromas, and parulis. Less common lesions include peripheral ossifying fibromas, congenital epulis of the newborn, and congenital mandibular duct atresia. Most of these lesions present at painless masses but can have significant effects on children and their caregivers. Although these lesions are generally harmless, evaluation and treatment is necessary for appropriate management and health of the child. (Source: Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics)
