RESUMO
"Ethnic rhinoplasty" is a term that historically has been employed to categorize patterns in nasal anatomy, possible procedures to change appearance, and patient and surgeon expectations for expected outcomes for the multitude of patients with features that belong to non-White groups. Categorizing anatomical structures based on broad definitions of race or ethnicity may not be an accurate representation, nor give an accurate depiction of nasal anatomical features. A shift is needed regarding how race and ethnicity are employed in describing nasal anatomy and rhinoplasty. We present a categorization system based on nasal anatomical patterns that may have more meaningful surgical implications without generalization into ethnic groups. Common anatomical nasal features such as projection, rotation, skin thickness, and anthropometric measurements were grouped into types, which may also help in patient education and remove any ethnic or racial terms.
RESUMO
The use of injectables can effectively treat the areas of greatest facial esthetic concern in males. Due to significant differences in the facial anatomy of men compared to women, treatment strategy, dosage, and technique differs. This article will review the pharmacology, preparation, pertinent anatomy, technique, risks, and adverse events associated with injectable agents emphasizing unique differences in male anatomy and esthetics.

Nasal reconstruction is a challenging practice with the potential for complications. Surgeons can prevent complications through preoperative optimization of patient factors, refinement of intraoperative surgical techniques, and postoperative surgical and nonsurgical wound care. Preoperatively, optimization of modifiable and recognition of nonmodifiable risk factors is paramount. Intraoperatively, meticulous flap design and surgical technique promote healing. In the postoperative setting, attentive wound care, adjuvant therapies, and close follow-up for consideration of additional procedures enhance outcomes. By anticipating potential complications across perioperative settings, surgeons can prevent common complications in nasal reconstruction and more effectively manage those complications that arise.

Solitary circumscribed neuroma formerly known as palisaded encapsulated neuroma is a rare, benign neural tumor that usually presents as a painless firm nodule or papule on the face and within oral cavity, although they can occur elsewhere on the body. No association with neurofibromatosis has been reported in the literature. Herein, we report, a previously unreported unique association of neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF-2) with multiple cutaneous solitary circumscribed neuromas in a 24-year-old female. A 24-year-old female with history of NF-2 presented with two slow-growing soft-to-firm papules on the chin and forehead that had been gradually increasing in size over a period of 5 years. The papule on the chin was increasingly tender to palpation. Histologic sections demonstrated a dermal based almost encapsulated, smoothly contoured tumefactive mass composed of spindle cell proliferation with neuroid structures and foci of palisaded growth (resembling schwannoma) and intralesional cleft like spaces. By immunohistochemistry, the lesional cells were strongly and diffusely positive for S-100 and SOX10 with multifocal neurofilament expression while the "capsule" was diffusely reactive for epithelial membrane antigen. The overall features were considered prototypic for solitary circumscribed neuroma. The patient is 18-months post-surgical resection with no evidence of recurrence. In summary, we report for the first time a case of multiple solitary circumscribed neuromas in a patient with known NF2. We highlight pertinent diagnostic clues relevant to surgical pathologist to facilitate recognition (as this tumor is often mistaken for schwannoma or neurofibroma). The clinical behavior is excellent and surgical resection is considered curative.

The styloid process constitutes the posterolateral boundary for an endonasal exposure of the infratemporal fossa. This study aims to explore the feasibility of a far-lateral extension to the lateral poststyloid space via an endonasal corridor. An endonasal dissection was performed on six cadaveric specimens (12 sides). Following an endoscopic endonasal access to the parapharyngeal space, the styloid process and the tympanic portion of the temporal bone were removed to reveal the jugular bulb and the extratemporal facial nerve. Distances from the anterior nasal spine to the relevant landmarks were measured using a surgical navigation device. Through an endonasal corridor, only the anteroinferior aspect of the jugular bulb was exposed. Conversely, the extratemporal facial nerve could be sufficiently exposed, and the deep temporal nerve could be transposed to the stylomastoid foramen. The average horizontal distances from the nasal spine to the posterior tract of V3 , styloid process, and facial nerve were 79.33 ± 3.41, 97.10 ± 4.74, and 104.77 ± 4.42 mm, respectively. Access to the lateral poststyloid space via an endonasal corridor is feasible, potentially providing an alternative approach to address select lesions extending to this region. The deep temporal nerve has a similar diameter to that of the facial nerve; thus, providing potential reinnervation of the facial nerve.
