    Abstract Introduction: Osteopetrosis is a rare hereditary group of bony displasias. They range from a devastating metabolic disease (including severe malignant infantile osteopetrosis) to other conditions with a more benign phenotype (autosomal dominant osteopetrosis I and II).
    Case report: Several case reports have been published of infectious complications affecting the mandible but maxillary affectation is quite rare. We present the case of a 23-year-old woman with a malignant recessive form of osteopetrosis complicated by repeated episodes of osteomyelitis (caused by actinomyces) of the mandible and maxilla.

    Abstract Objective: To evaluate the intranasal complications in patients submitted to maxillary Le Fort osteotomy within the orthognathic evaluation through flexible fibroscope, method which is safety, reliable and minimally invasive.
    Materials and methods: A prospective, systematic non-randomized study is presented with a series of 47 patients who underwent a Le Fort I maxillary osteotomy due to dentofacial deformity between January 2008 and December 2008. The patients who were included underwent an evaluation of nasal respiratory function using a questionnaire designed for this objective, after which a fibroscopic examination was carried out.
    Results: With regards to the results of the NOSE questionnaire, 4/47 patients had Grade 2 nasal obstruction before the surgery. After the intervention, three improved to a 0-1 grade. 3/47 patients reported snoring during sleep without OSAS that was not modified as a result of the surgery. 2/47 patients presented with sequelae regarding the deviation of the septum, and 1/47 had a luxation of the anterior nasal spine that had not been recorded before the orthognathic surgery. The presence of synechiae was observed in 3/47 cases. A septal perforated mucosa was found in the IV area of the nasal septum. Hypertrophy of the lower turbinate was observed in 4/47 cases.
    Conclusion: The fibroscope procedure is minimally invasive and it does not require local anesthesia or sedation, and it allows the surgeon to carry out an immediate and exhaustive evaluation, on an outpatient basis, of possible septal and nasal sequelae in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery.

    Abstract A complete loss of palpebral tissue can occur following a congenital malformation, tumour resection or traumatic injury. This article presents the authors' clinical experience with upper eyelid reconstruction in children using the Guyuron retroauricular island flap. Five cases of severe eyelid defects in children aged between 5 days and 10 years of age (three patients following enucleation and two presenting upper eyelid coloboma of approximately two-thirds of the upper eyelid surface) were treated using this technique. In all cases an optimal closure of the eyelid fissure was achieved and corneal exposure clinically improved. On average, 15% of the initial flap surface was lost. Only one major complication (40% flap necrosis) was reported in the postoperative period. This reconstructive technique can provide complete eyelid reconstruction leaving an inconspicuous scar and causing limited morbidity at the donor zone.
