          Abstract

          Congenital laryngocele is an uncommon cause of neonatal stridor. There are only a few cases reported in the literature. The authors present a successfully treated case of an infant, whose life could only be saved by urgent tracheostomy. On the 5th postoperative day endoscopic excision and marsupialization provided patent airway. The patient could be decannulated. During follow-up no recurrence was observed.

          Neonatal laryngoceles. A cause for airway obstruction.

          The neonatal laryngocele is a congenital pathologic entity originating in the saccule of the laryngeal ventricle. This entity may present as an uncommon cause of neonatal airway obstruction. We present two cases of this condition and the management undertaken. Both patients demonstrated significant airway distress. Evaluation of each patient included either plain x-ray films of the neck, ultrasound, or computed tomography of the neck. A cystic mass, containing air and fluid, was identified causing external compression of the airway in each case. Surgical intervention required airway endoscopy and an external approach to excise the mass. Tracheotomy was avoided in both cases; however, one infant required further surgery for laryngomalacia. Both children have done well in follow-up.

            Laryngeal cysts in infants and children—A pathologist's perspective (with review of literature)

            To expose the rarity of the phenomena of congenital laryngeal cysts. Additionally, a discussion is presented in support of the basic similarities between laryngeal duplication cyst and bronchogenic cyst and a proposal to use the term 'bronchogenic cyst' (appended by the location) is put forth.

              Rotation Technique of Reduction Malar Plasty

              Abstract The 2 most common complications of reduction malarplasty are nonunion or malunion and cheek drooping. Because masseter muscle is attached from zygomatic process of the maxilla to inferior two thirds of the zygomatic arch, rigid fixation and intimate bone contact without creating a gap are crucial for reduction malarplasty. Mesial-clockwise rotation of the zygomaticomaxillary complex can produce intimate bone contact and facilitates reduction malarplasty.
