Mandibular Reconstruction for Hemifacial Microsomia This 8 years and six months old boy was born with right-sided hemifacial microsomia. He has severe right-sided mandibular hypoplasia with a missing ramus and condyle. There was also microtia of the right ear. He underwent reconstruction of the ramus and condyle using costochondral grafts with intact growth centers harvested at the time of the surgery. Care was taken to ensure full protection of the facial nerve throughout the surgery. It was explained to his parents that he would need distraction osteogenesis of the reconstructed ramus for full cosmetic and rehabilitation at 15 years of age. Microtia correction would be performed at a later date following rehabilitation of his mandibular hypoplasia. 📞 Phone: +91 44 4294 7222 📬 Email: [email protected] 🌍 Website: www.smbalaji.com 📍 Location: Chennai, India #hemifacialmicrosomia #mandibularreconstruction #craniofacialsurgery #craniofacialsurgeon #maxillofacialsurgery #maxillofacialsurgeon #drsmbalaji #smbalaji #balajidental #microtia #earreconstruction #microtiasurgery #distractionosteogenesis #distraction #distractionsurgery #microtiacorrection #india #chennai #tamilnadu #maxillofacial #craniofacial #earsurgery #cosmeticsurgery #cosmeticsurgeon (at Balaji Dental and Craniofacial Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/CADAIC8FYuY/?igshid=11k8g1ptsi9nb
Mandibular Reconstruction for Odontogenic Keratocyst This young woman developed a progressively enlarging left-sided swelling of her mandible. She presented to our hospital for management. Imaging studies obtained at our hospital showed a radiolucent lesion and biopsies returned with the diagnosis of odontogenic keratocyst. Teeth overlying the lesion were extracted. Due to the size of the lesion, the mandibular bone underlying the lesion fractured when the lesion was being enucleated. She therefore underwent stabilization of the fracture with a titanium plate followed by reconstruction of the bony defect with rib grafts. It was explained to her that dental implants would be placed in the jaw after consolidation of the grafts. 📞 Phone: +91 44 4294 7222 📬 Email: [email protected] 🌍 Website: www.smbalaji.com 📍 Location: Chennai, India #odontogenicKeratocyst #mandibularreconstruction #craniofacialsurgery #craniofacialsurgeon #maxillofacialsurgery #maxillofacialsurgeon #drsmbalaji #smbalaji #balajidental #microtia #earreconstruction #india #chennai #tamilnadu #maxillofacial #craniofacial #earsurgery #cosmeticsurgery #cosmeticsurgeon #swelling (at Balaji Dental and Craniofacial Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAC_tB1lON9/?igshid=t3rrjw2igp6x
Dr SM Balaji Conferred the Craniofacial Research Fellowship Award The 3rd International Craniofacial and Dental Summit recently concluded in Paro, Bhutan. The Craniofacial Research Foundation conferred the Craniofacial Research Fellowship Award on Dr SM Balaji in a solemn ceremony at the summit. This was in light of Dr SM Balaji’s tireless efforts towards increasing awareness about the need for craniofacial surgery towards the rehabilitation of children born with craniostenosis and other skull defects. Many children have ended up with permanent brain damage before the spread of awareness regarding craniofacial surgery. Dr SM Balaji was also given the honour of delivering the keynote lecture on “the management of craniofacial clefts” at the inaugural session of the summit. #craniofacial #craniofacialsurgery ##research #fellowshipaward #craniofacialsurgeon #balajidental #smbalaji #drsmbalaji #bhutan #paro ##awards (at Balaji Dental and Craniofacial Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_XYPVUBB16/?igshid=3mr2ef1x99jn
Plastic Surgery helps children. Comment and show your support! . The patient featured here underwent cranial vault remodeling for treatment of his trigonocephaly at 5.5 months of age. Note the pre-operative triangular shape of the skull, the skull bones removed, and the normalized skull shape immediately after ACVR. . These children recover faster than one would think, given the extent of the operation. Average hospital stay is 3 days. They rarely require pain medication after the first post operative day. They can bathe 🛁 4 days after surgery and are usually back to their normal routine as early as 1-2 weeks following surgery💪🏻. These kids never cease to amaze me!
