    Abstract A patient presented to the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery with a rare case of cervical silicone lymphadenopathy. She had a painless ovoid mass in the left side of her neck and had had cosmetic breast augmentation 10 years before. Radiological imaging and core biopsy examination were consistent with silicone lymphadenopathy.

    Abstract Background: The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has generated enormous pressure on healthcare establishments, prompting the restructuring of services to rationalise resources. Complex head and neck reconstructive surgery in this setting may carry substantial risk to patients and staff. This paper outlines the management strategy and outcomes of major head and neck oncological cases at a single regional tertiary referral centre.
    Methods: A database review was undertaken of consecutive patients undergoing major head and neck surgery and reconstruction during the COVID-19 pandemic at St Andrew's Centre for Plastic Surgery & Burns, Chelmsford UK. Patient demographics, tumour and reconstruction characteristics as well as peri‑operative information were determined. Patients were prospectively contacted with regard to COVID-related symptoms and investigations.
    Results: Twenty-two patients (15 males and 7 females) with a mean age of 67 years (range: 36-92 years) were included between March 1 and June 13, 2020. Patients underwent pre-operative throat swabs at 72 h and 24 h as well as chest CT scanning as part of a robust protocol. Twelve free flaps, four loco-regional flaps, four parotidectomies and 23 cervical lymphadenectomies were performed. Two patients required a return to theatre. No post-operative deaths occurred and flap survival rate was 100%. A single patient tested positive for COVID-19 pre-operatively and no post-operative COVID-19 infections occurred.
    Conclusion: Although head and neck surgery represents a high-risk procedure to patients and healthcare professionals, our institutional experience suggests that in the presence of a robust peri‑operative protocol and judicious patient selection, major head and neck surgery, including free tissue transfer reconstruction, may be performed safely.

    Abstract Virtual panendoscopy (VP) is a new, non-invasive diagnostic technique available to assess luminal structures. It involves the use of the data obtained from scanning of patients using multidetector CT scanners. The data is manipulated using a software programme to generate 3D models with fly through capability to examine various anatomical tubes. Its use has been studied in colonoscopy and bronchoscopy. However its use in head and neck cancer assessment has not been extensively studied. Therefore this diagnostic tool was used to stage 10 consecutive head and neck cancer patients. The ability of this tool in staging and identification of synchronous primary was assessed. The findings from the VP were also compared with the findings of nasendoscopy. In our pilot study, the virtual panendoscopy has been a useful tool in the assessment of the upper aero digestive tract. Although it has not picked up synchronous primaries, good quality assessment of lumen and the mucosal wall was done in areas not accessed by nasendoscope. It is most useful in areas not accessed by nasendoscope i.e. trachea, bronchus etc. The outcome, its usefulness and shortcomings are discussed.

    Abstract Stafne bone cyst is a rare mandibular defect. It is a developmental abnormality that commonly presents as a small, well demarcated, and asymptomatic radiolucency seen at the angle of the mandible below the mandibular canal. There are usually no clinical signs nor symptoms. Diagnosis is commonly by plain X-ray, but use of more accurate imaging such as MRI is required in atypical cases. This case study reports an unusual presentation of Stafne bone cyst in the ramus of the mandible in a young man and reviews the relevant literature.

    Abstract Unlabelled: Early diagnosis of oral, head and neck cancer is very important. Delay in diagnosis and referral to a specialist unit can result in an enlarged tumour with an increased chance of metastatic spread which will result in upstaging of the tumour, thus worsening the five year survival rate. There is a great need for early identification and referral of potentially malignant lesions by general dental and medical practitioners. Referral letters are the standard and, typically, the sole method of communicating confidential information between two professionals. It is vital that the referral letters sent for potential malignant lesions are of good quality, clearly marked as urgent and contain adequate administrative and clinical data. An audit was undertaken at the Oral and Maxillofacial Department at Barnet and Chase Farm NHS Trust, to examine the quality of referral letters sent for potentially malignant oral, head and neck lesions. The outcome is discussed and a standard referral letter is also proposed if not referring using the standard local cancer network referral proforma.
    Clinical relevance: A good quality referral letter should minimize delay in diagnoses and management of a patient with an oral, head and neck lesion.

    Abstract Paediatric craniofacial surgery is a highly specialised field requiring a multidisciplinary team input. Orbital and ocular involvement is relatively common in craniofacial patients. This is more in syndromic patients. In nonsyndromic patients, orbital involvement is common in frontal plagiocephaly and trigonocephaly. The management of these conditions requires close working between the craniofacial surgeon and ophthalmologist. An outline of the management of these deformities is discussed.

    Abstract A new technique of surgical tracheostomy is described. Prior to performing the tracheostomy, the endotracheal tube (ETT) is advanced further down the trachea so that the end of the tube is positioned just above the carina. Using the flexible endoscope within the ETT the positioning can be done with precision. This manoeuvre avoids the cuff of the ETT being perforated as it is well below the site of the tracheal window. Following the creation of an opening in the trachea, the patient continues to have a definitive airway. In this controlled environment, time is taken to obtain haemostasis at the tracheostomy site, place a rescue stitch and also suction above the cuff of the ETT. A study was carried out in a series of 15 patients by recording various measurements during the procedure to confirm the accuracy of this technique.

    Abstract Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare causes clinical disease mainly in immunocompromised patients with long-standing pulmonary disease, the symptoms of which are identical to those of pulmonary tuberculosis. In patients with AIDS the infection is typically disseminated. Extrapulmonary infection by M. avium-intracellulare is seen in children aged 1-5 years as cervicofacial lymphadenitis. Other extrapulmonary sites are less common and include musculoskeletal, maxillary sinus, mastoid, breast, small bowel, genitourinary tract and cornea. Such infection of the hard palate is rare. We present an unusual case of infection of the palate by M. avium-intracellulare in a 53-year-old diabetic man. To our knowledge, this infection presenting as a palatal lump in a patient without HIV or pre-existing lung disease has not been previously reported.
