    الوصف: OBJECTIVE: Describe the first hybrid global simulation-based comprehensive cleft care workshop, evaluate impact on participants, and compare experiences based on in-person versus virtual attendance. DESIGN: Cross-sectional survey-based evaluation. SETTING: International comprehensive cleft care workshop. PARTICIPANTS: Total of 489 participants. INTERVENTIONS: Three-day simulation-based hybrid comprehensive cleft care workshop. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Participant demographic data, perceived barriers and interventions needed for global comprehensive cleft care delivery, participant workshop satisfaction, and perceived short-term impact on practice stratified by in-person versus virtual attendance. RESULTS: The workshop included 489 participants from 5 continents. The response rate was 39.9%. Participants perceived financial factors (30.3%) the most significant barrier and improvement in training (39.8%) as the most important intervention to overcome barriers facing cleft care delivery in low to middle-income countries. All participants reported a high level of satisfaction with the workshop and a strong positive perceived short-term impact on their practice. Importantly, while this was true for both in-person and virtual attendees, in-person attendees reported a significantly higher satisfaction with the workshop (28.63 ± 3.08 vs 27.63 ± 3.93; P = .04) and perceived impact on their clinical practice (22.37 ± 3.42 vs 21.02 ± 3.45 P = .01). CONCLUSION: Hybrid simulation-based educational comprehensive cleft care workshops are overall well received by participants and have a positive perceived impact on their clinical practices. In-person attendance is associated with significantly higher satisfaction and perceived impact on practice. Considering that financial and health constraints may limit live meeting attendance, future efforts will focus on making in-person and virtual attendance more comparable.

    الوصف: Introduction: Sagittal craniosynostosis (SC) is associated with scaphocephaly, an elongated narrow head shape. Assessment of regional severity in the scaphocephalic head is limited by the use of serial computed tomographic (CT) imaging or complex computer programing. Three-dimensional measurements of cranial surface morphology provide a radiation-free alternative for assessing cranial shape. This study describes the creation of an occipital bulleting index (OBI), a novel tool using surface morphology to assess the regional severity in patients with SC. Methods: Surface imaging from CT scans or 3D photographs of 360 individuals with SC and 221 normocephalic individuals were compared to identify differences in morphology. Cartesian grids were created on each individual’s surface mesh using equidistant axial and sagittal planes. Area under the curve (AUC) analyses were performed to identify trends in regional morphology and create measures capturing population differences. Results: The largest differences were located in the medial regions posteriorly. Using these population trends, a measure was created to maximize AUC. The OBI has an AUC of 0.72 with a sensitivity of 74% and a specificity of 61%. When the frontal bossing index is applied in tandem, the two have a sensitivity of 94.7% and a specificity of 93.1%. Correlation between the two scores in individuals with SC was found to be negligible with an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.018. Severity was found to be independent of age under 24 months, sex, and imaging modality. Conclusions: This index creates a tool for differentiating control head shapes from those with SC and has the potential to allow for objective evaluation of the regional severity, outcomes of different surgical techniques, and tracking shape changes in individuals over time, without the need for radiation.

    الوصف: Background: Endoscopically assisted craniofacial surgery (EACS) has numerous advantages over traditional, open approaches, such as fronto-orbital advancement in treating nonsyndromic craniosynostosis. However, several articles report high reoperation rates in syndromic patients treated with EACS. This meta-analysis and review examines undesirable outcome rates (UORs), defined as reoperation or Whitaker category III/IV, in syndromic patients undergoing primary EACS compared with procedures that actively expand the cranial vault. Methods: PubMed and Embase were searched in June 2022 to identify all articles reporting primary reoperation or Whitaker outcomes for syndromic patients undergoing cranial vault expanding surgery or suturectomy. A meta-analysis of proportions was performed comparing UORs, and a trim-and-fill adjustment method was used to validate sensitivity and assess publication bias. Results: A total of 721 articles were screened. Five EACS articles (83 patients) and 22 active approach articles (478 patients) met inclusion criteria. Average UORs for EACS and active approaches were 26% (14%–38%) and 20% (13%–28%), respectively ( P = 0.18). Reoperation occurred earlier in EACS patients (13.7 months postprimary surgery versus 37.1 months for active approaches, P = 0.003). Relapse presentations and reason for reoperation were also reviewed. Subjectively, EACS UORs were higher in all syndromes except Apert, and Saethre-Chotzen patients had the highest UOR for both approaches. Conclusions: There was no statistically significant increase in UORs among syndromic patients treated with EACS compared with traditional approaches, although EACS patients required revision significantly sooner. Uncertainties regarding the long-term efficacy of EACS in children with syndromic craniosynostosis should be revisited as more data become available.

    الوصف: Background: Surgical management in those with moderate-to-severe airway obstruction includes tongue-lip adhesion, tracheostomy, and/or mandibular distraction osteogenesis. This article describes a transfacial two-pin external device technique for mandibular distraction osteogenesis, utilizing minimal dissection. Methods: The first percutaneous pin is transcutaneously placed just inferior to the sigmoid notch parallel to the interpupillary line. The pin is then advanced through the pterygoid musculature at the base of the pterygoid plates, toward the contralateral ramus, and exits the skin. A second parallel pin is placed spanning the bilateral mandibular parasymphysis distal to the region of the future canine. With the pins in place, bilateral high ramus transverse corticotomies are performed. Using univector distractor devices, the length of activation varies, with the goal of overdistraction to achieve a class III relationship of the alveolar ridges. Consolidation is limited to a 1:1 period with the activation phase, and removal is performed by cutting and pulling the pins out of the face. Results: To guide optimal transcutaneous pin placement, transfacial pins were then placed through twenty segmented mandibles. Mean upper pin (UP) distance was 20.7 ± 1.1 mm from the tragus. The distance between the cutaneous entry of the UP and lower pin was 23.5 ± 0.9 mm, and the tragion-UP-lower pin angle was 118.7 ± 2.9°. Conclusions: The two-pin technique has potential advantages regarding nerve injury and mandibular growth, given an intraoral approach with limited dissection. It may safely be performed on neonates whose small size may preclude the use of internal distractor devices.
