[Advantage of lifting in parotidectomy].

INTRODUCTION: A retrospective study is presented of surgical patients undergoing simultaneous SMAS lifting technique and parotidectomy, with evaluation of the incidence of clinical Frey's syndrome. METHODS: 40 patients were operated on between 1978 and 1999. The surgical technique is described and the incidence of clinical Frey's syndrome as evaluated by questionnaire is presented. RESULTS: The 36 patients who answered the questionnaire were satisfied with the aesthetic result in terms of hidden scar and defect filling. 2 patients complained of warm cheek sensation during meals, without associated sweating. One patient who had had superficial parotidectomy in 1978 and total parotidectomy for recurrent pleomorphic adenoma in 1997 complained of Frey's syndrome. CONCLUSION: Combination of the two techniques provides excellent aesthetic results. In this study the incidence of clinical Frey's syndrome was 2%, with an incidence of incomplete Frey's syndrome in 5.5% of cases due to SMAS interposition.

[History of the treatment of snoring].

The history of snoring can be divided into three major periods. First, there was a prehistoric phase during which everything was ignored and in which there was no interest in knowing anything. We call this "le repos du guerrier'. Sleep was regarded mainly as a phase of recovery, and there was no question of related problems. A second period began about the beginning of this century: they still did not know anything, but it was felt that something needed to be done. Multiple types of therapy were attempted. This was a time in which research extended in all directions. Modern times began in the middle of this century with the first serious work of medical scientists who discovered and defined the sleep apnea syndrome, the UPPP, the CPAP, etc.

Collagen injections: two years' experience.

A total of 165 patients with varying indications have been treated with Zyderm Collagen Implant. Among these patients, only 4 allergic reactions were found: 3 local and 1 general. Results obtained depend on the type of lesion treated; it is suggested that the treatment of rhytids provides the best indication for collagen implant.
