- Pediatric Surgery
Background:
- Unilateral cleft lip repair is complex.
- Numerous surgical techniques exist.
- Millard's rotation-advancement flap is a key method.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate Millard's rotation-advancement flap for unilateral cleft lip repair.
- To highlight its functional and aesthetic outcomes.
Main Methods:
- Utilized Millard's rotation-advancement flap technique.
- Performed simultaneous lip repair and tip rhinoplasty.

01:27Fractures: Bone Repair
Treatment for a fracture is based on the type of break, the bone affected, and the patient's age.
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...

Airway management is a key skill in emergency and critical care settings, as maintaining a clear airway is essential for adequate oxygenation and ventilation.Head Tilt-Chin Lift TechniqueThe head tilt-chin lift maneuver is an essential technique primarily used in patients without suspected cervical spine injuries. To perform this maneuver, one hand is placed on the patient’s forehead, and gentle pressure is applied backward to tilt the head. The fingertips of the other hand are positioned under...
