The lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) was previously known to pyogenic granuloma and is benign vascular lesion which grows rapidly on skin and mucosa. It arises from whole body, but oral and nasal cavities are most predilection sites in the head and neck area. The laryngeal LCH looks like a granulomatous lesion of posterior glottis and its common etiology are tracheal intubation and laryngopharyngeal reflux disease etc. The LCH in larynx can cause blood tinged sputum and lump sense. The lesions refractory to medical therapy or causing dyspnea may require surgical excision. A 74-year-old man who presented gradually aggravated dyspnea, lump sensation and hoarseness of one month came to our hospital. The stroboscopic examination revealed large well-margined glottic mass. It was excised with $CO_2$ laser and finally diagnosed as LCH. We present a rare unique case of glottic LCH with a review of literatures.

Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma is a rare epithelial neuroendocrine malignancy and is preferentially located in gastrointestinal tract and pancreas. Cases of large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma have been reported in many other locations, including the thymus, gallbladder, prostate, larynx, salivary glands, nasopharynx, tonsil and mastoid. However, primary sinonasal large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma never have been reported in Korea. We experienced a case of primary large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma arising from left maxillary sinus recently. A 82-year-old male patient presented with nasal obstruction and epistaxis. The biopsy revealed large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma with poor differentiation. After a general evaluation, the patient was staged as cT3N0M0. The patient was treated by combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy. We report this rare case with literature review.

Sinonasal mucosal melanoma (SNMM) in the maxillary sinus is a rare disease condition. Compared to oral mucosal melanoma, SNMM has a bulky, exophytic, and polypoid appearance, is weakly pigmented, and associated with unspecific symptoms. Due to these features, SNMM in the maxillary sinus has been misdiagnosed as nasal polyps and chronic sinusitis. In this case report, we described SNMM occurring in the right maxillary sinus simulated as a cystic or benign lesion. Cortical bone thinning and expansion were observed around the mass. The excised soft mass was encapsulated and weakly pigmented. The mass was clearly excised and covered with a pedicled buccal fat pad graft. Diagnosis using immunohistochemistry with S-100 and homatropine methylbromide-45 (HMB-45) is critical for proper treatment.

Unilateral nostril hypoplasia is an extremely rare congenital malformation of unknown etiology, and only a few cases have been reported in literature. Owing to variability and complexity of the deformity, surgical correction of unilateral nostril hypoplasia represents one of the most significant reconstructive challenges to reconstructive plastic surgeons. We report a 7-year-old Vietnamese child with nasal and periocular deformity resembling a craniofacial cleft. Grossly, the right nostril was patent but with alar rim deformity, and the left nostril was not readily identifiable. A dystopic medial canthus was present on the left side as well. Closer inspection and palpation of the left side of nose revealed a patency through the soft tissue and underlying bony structure, Thus, a new alar rim were reconstructed with an irregularly shaped Z-plasty to create patency on the involved side. Simulatneously, a second Z-plasty was performed to address the medial canthal deformity. Postoperative appearance and function was sastisfactory at one-year follow up visit. In the treatment of patients with nostril hypoplasia, a careful preoperative physical examination is a prerequisite, and Z-plasty can be a valuable option for surgical correction.

Vomer flap is used to repair anterior hard palate in complete cleft lip and palate patients. As the midline structure located in between the two cleft segments of hard palate, the vomer flap is very useful because of its vicinity to cleft site and their ease of execution when it is done with primary cheiloplasty simultaneously. In addition, the quality of tissue is very similar to that of the nasal mucosa with good vascularity. In cases of simultaneous repair of cleft lip with anterior palate using vomer flap, the hard palate can be repaired at the same time with primary cheiloplasty which is earlier period than other techniques. With simultaneous close of cleft lip and cleft hard palate by vomer flap, subsequent palatoplasty does not require wide dissection, and consequently chance of oronasal fistula formation will be minimized. Additionally, surgical time will be reduced and, the harmful effects on mid-facial growth will be diminished. In this article, we will introduce the comprehensive vomer flap technique with primary lip closure and review the comparative studies of the outcome of simultaneous repair of cleft lip and cleft hard palate with vomer flap.

Porocarcinoma (PC) and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) are distinct skin cancers. Few studies have documented the occurrence of two concurrent types of skin cancers, and to the best of our knowledge, this represents the inaugural report of such a coexisting lesion arising from a capillary malformation. Herein, we report a case of concurrent PC and BCC presenting with capillary malformation. A 93-year-old woman visited our hospital with a protruding mass in her right nasal ala that appeared as a capillary malformation. A biopsy was performed on the skin lesion, and BCC was diagnosed. A wide excision was performed. Permanent biopsy revealed that the skin lesion was a PC with basal cells and squamous differentiation. The safety margin of the deep tissue margin was < 0.1 cm; however, considering the advanced age of the patient, further excision was deemed to not possess any benefits. This case illustrates the importance of recognizing the possibility of multiple skin cancers, even in patients with benign lesions such as capillary malformations. The rarity of this presentation highlights the importance of thorough investigation and histopathological examination of skin lesions in guiding appropriate surgical excision.

Purpose: This study was aimed to histologically evaluate $Silicone^{(R)}$, $Gore-tex^{(R)}$, $AlloDerm^{(R)}$, and $Medpor^{(R)}$ implants for augmentation rhinoplasty after graft in the subperiosteum of mural calvarium respectively. Materials and method: Twenty four male ICR mice were used. $Silicone^{(R)}$, $Gore-tex^{(R)}$, $AlloDerm^{(R)}$, and $Medpor^{(R)}$ were grafted respectively in the subperiosteum of frontal bone. Animals were sacrificed at 1 week, 4 week and 8 week after graft. Histological observation was performed after H&E staining. Results: All groups were healed without any extrusion of implant materials and inflammatory cell infiltration. In Silicone group, $Silicone^{(R)}$ was well enclosed by thin fibrous tissue at 1 week, which became thicker and stable at 4 weeks and 8 weeks. And there was no destruction or resorption of $Silicone^{(R)}$ In Gore-tex group, there was no destruction or resorption of $Gore-tex^{(R)}$. Thin fibrous tissue and cell infiltration from peripheral tissue were observed at 1 week, 4 weeks and 8 weeks. In AlloDerm group, $AlloDerm^{(R)}$ was enclosed by fibrous tissue. Cell infiltration was observed at 1 week, 4 weeks and 8 weeks. In Medpor group, there was no inflammation, destruction or resorption of $Medpor^{(R)}$ and it was contacted directly to the bone without interposition of fibrous tissue. Porous area was filled by bone or soft tissue. Conclusion: These results suggest that $Gore-tex^{(R)}$, $AlloDerm^{(R)}$, and $Medpor^{(R)}$ graft are more stable than $Silicone^{(R)}$ graft and that $Silicone^{(R)}$, $Gore-tex^{(R)}$, $AlloDerm^{(R)}$ are appropriate for graft on nasal tip and $Medpor^{(R)}$ is appropriate for graft on nasal dorsum.

This study is aimed to elucidate the abnormal growth pattern of human fetal maxilla with cleft lip and palate (CLP). Total 71 fetal maxillae with CLP were obtained from aborted human fetuses. They were examined radiologically for the dimensional changes of maxillary trapezoid (MT) formed by maxillary primary growth centers (MxPGC)(Lee et al., 1992). In palatal radiogram of the CLP maxilla, the MT was traced by the anterior and posterior MxPGCs, and the dimensions of anterior and posterior maxillary widths, maxillary length, and MT length (MTL), and MT area were measured for evaluation of the basic growth pattern of the developing maxilla. The growth of anterior and posterior MxPGCs was severely retarded in the prenatal maxillae with CLPs, showing abnormal shape of MT. Cleft lip subjects without cleft palate also showed arrested growth of MT. Unilateral cleft lipalveolar cleft or cleft palate (UCL-AC/CP) and bilateral cleft lip-alveolar cleft or cleft palate (BCL-AC/CP) showed enhanced abnormal MT pattern. The abnormality of MT was most marked in BCL-AC/CP. It was also observed that the craniofacial malformations other than CLPs produced abnormal MT. In conclusion, the MT growth of prenatal CLP maxilla was severely arrested and resulting in abnormal MT shape on the palatal radiogram. BCL-AC/CP showed more protruded nasal septum than other types of CLPs, while UCL-AC/CP showed severe deviation of the protruded nasal septum towards the non-cleft side. Cleft lip only subjects also showed the abnormal growth of MT. These data suggest that the MT is primarily involved in CLPs, and MT shape could be utilized as a sensitive indicator for the analysis of maxillary malformation in different types of CLPs.
