Auricular arteriovenous malformation (AVM) occasionally accompanies macrotia. Here, the authors report a case of AVM with macrotia that was treated with transcatheter arterial embolization, percutaneous sclerotherapy, and subsequent otoplasty following partial resection. A 46-year-old man presented with Schobinger stage III AVM. After transcatheter arterial embolization of the feeding arteries using n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate, 9 sessions of sclerotherapy were performed using 3% polidocanol foam. Partial resection of the AVM nidus and subsequent otoplasty for ear reduction were performed at the age of 50 years. Two years later, the remnant nidus was resected and the protruding ear was surgically corrected. No recurrence was observed, and the enlarged ear was reduced at follow-up 6 months after the final operation. Auricular arteriovenous malformation (AVM) occasionally accompanies macrotia.

In severe cases of maxillary hypoplasia, Le Fort I distraction may be required for treatment. This study describes our experience with internal distraction devices and assesses our outcomes in patients with a negative overjet on average >15 mm. A retrospective review of patients with a history of cleft lip and/or palate who underwent Le Fort I distraction at our institution from 11/2007-11/2017 was performed. Data regarding demographics, procedural details and outcomes were collected and analyzed. Twenty patients, 13 (65.0%) male and 7 (30.0%) female, were included. All (100%) patients had a history of cleft lip and/or palate and 2 (10.0%) of them had associated syndromes. All 20 patients underwent internal distraction. The average age at surgery was 17.8 years (range 15.2-20.7, SD 1.6 years). The average preoperative negative overjet was 19.27 mm (range 10-30, SD 5.63 mm). The mean total distraction length was 15.3 mm (range 0-30, SD 6.72 mm). There were no intraoperative complications, however, there were a total of 4 (20.0%) postoperative complications, 2 of which required reoperation due to device malfunction or displacement. 14 (70.0%) patients had repeat procedures to complete occlusal correction or correct relapse. Maxillary distraction alone was insufficient for correction of maxillary discrepancies averaging >15 mm. Instead, it's utility may be in positioning the maxilla for a more viable final advancement and fixation procedure, rather than being solely responsible for achieving normal occlusion during distraction. 15 mm.

Parapharyngeal space tumors are rare tumors that make up about 0.5% to 1% of all head and neck neoplasms. The majority of parapharyngeal space tumors, which are usually benign, consist of salivary gland tumors and neurogenic tumors. Although the transcervical, transparotid or transmandibular approach is generally preferred for the excision of these tumors, the transoral approach, which is more advantageous in terms of cosmetics and function, can be applied in selected cases. This article presents a case in which the
