Frontal exostose resection during an endoscopic subperiosteal lifting: case report.

Ever slowly, plastic surgery has adopted minimally invasive procedures in order to avoid extensive incisions, large scars, and to obtain better results. Endoscopy was introduced into cosmetic surgery of the face in 1992 and it is getting more and more widespread as are its indications, often replacing open surgical approach. Sometimes, a patient seeking a solution to the stigma attached to the aging face may present other problems that are surgically treatable. The authors describe a case of surgical endoscopic resection of a frontal osteoma during endoscopically assisted brow-lift rhytidoplasty.

[Ileum-colon junction benign obstructions].

The Authors discuss on anatomical and functional characteristics of ileum-colon junction, physiological narrowing in alimentary tract and often involved in benign obstruction. They report their series and analyze all inflammatory or not inflammatory diseases potentially involved, by describing them shortly and giving some information about their clinical features and imaging. The treatment of this obstruction will be done as soon as possible, before wall lesions force to make a larger resection.

[Stomach GIST].

Gastric stromal tumors give diagnostic and therapeutic problems, especially with regard to histopathologic identification and biological behavior. These tumors are very rare in all case reports. These ones are the most frequent of all alimentary tract. They are often incidentally found; because of their potential transformation, they have to be treated by respecting oncologic eradication standards and observing prognostic criteria based on a correct histopathologic evaluation (neoplasm localization and dimension, its structure, presence of cytological atypisms, mitotic index, ploidia, surgical resection). Then there has to be a good follow-up program.
