Objective: Cervico-facial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are complex and rare vascular lesions, and present in 0.1% of the population. Of traumatic or congenital origin, they are characterized by variable growth, and their complications can be disfiguring and potentially fatal. The treatment of choice is embolization followed by surgery if necessary. The main complications are recurrence and postoperative bleeding. Case report: We report the rare case of a 59-year-old female patient who underwent embolization of a right upper labial and jugal AVM, followed by complete necrosis of the right hemi-palatal mucosa associated with dental mobility and pain. Follow-up at 6 months showed complete reepithelialisation of the palate.  Conclusions: Soft tissue necrosis after AVM embolization is a rare event and is more commonly described after embolization for epistaxis. The evolution is generally favourable within a few weeks.

Introduction: Cleft lip and/or palate are the most common face malformations. The clinical picture of these anomalies is very variable. Cleft can include only the lip and/or alveolus, palate or all of these structures can be clefted. Aim: The aim of this paper is to present all particular types of clefts, their relationship to gender and body side in the group of children born in Lodz during the years 1981-2015. Material and method: The study group included 434 patients with facial clefts (218 males and 216 females) in the age between 4 weeks to 18 years who were born in Lodz during years 1981-2015. Results: In the analyzed group, there were 181 palate clefts (41.7%), 156 lip and palate clefts (36%) and 97 lip clefts (22.3%). A detailed analysis of clefts types showed that isolated palate clefts are definitely more frequent in females than males (112 vs. 69), while lip and palate clefts in boys than girls (96 vs. 60), furthermore left-sided clefts are more common than right-sided. Conclusions: During 35 years, the most common type of anomaly in children born in Lodz were palate clefts, followed by lip and palate clefts and the less frequent lip clefts. Palate clefts are more common in girls, while lip and palate clefts in boys. Left-sided clefts are two times more common than right-sided clefts.

Our aim was to perform a systematic open-access review of various complications reported for surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARME) procedures. There were 37 articles found in Pubmed using the search equation. Twelve articles were initially excluded according to the exclusion criteria. The 25 remaining articles were read in full for their descriptions of complications related to the SARME procedure in mature patients. The main reversible complications of SARME were infection, postoperative pain, and bleeding. There were also complications related to distractors, to secondary surgeries, and pterygomaxillary junction. The main non-reversible complications of SARME were associated with teeth, periodontal bone loss, and skull base fractures. Large field-of-view cone beam computed tomography (maxilla and skull base) should be implemented as initial planning tool to prevent many potential complications. The current trend for “minimally invasive” surgery in SARME might be, from an ethical point of view, transformed onto “minimally complicated” surgery as complication is still more harmful for any given patient than any potential perioperative surgical invasiveness.
