Argon laser radiation is used to treat congenital and acquired vascular lesions of the head and neck. Thirteen patients requiring a total of 36 treatments were followed up for a minimum of 1 year to assess the response of the vascular lesion to argon ion radiation. Of the 13 patients, 10 had an excellent result, with the lesion no longer being identifiable. Three of the patients had residual but minimal color remaining in the lesion. There were no complications or hypertrophic scars after 1 year of follow-up. The laser parameters used and the surgical technique followed are outlined.

AbstractProminent ears are the most frequent congenital deformity in the head and neck region. Anatomy of normal and prominent ears as well as the psychological aspects of prominent ears are reviewed. Two types of surgical technique are described with emphasis on the cartilage-sparing technique.A sound pre-operative analysis, focusing on all partsof the deformity, and surgical techniques which are gradually applied to these deformities should result in pleasing, permanent changes for the vast majority of patients. In our opinion, a combination of cartilage-sparing techniques augmented with cartilage-weakeningprocedures give predictable long-term results with a natural appearing ear and concomitant few, easily treated complications.

Diseases of the ear have been recorded and treated since ancient times. Ex-votos have been offered to heal deafness. Noninvasive treatments have evolved into minor, and later more advanced, surgical techniques to treat head and neck issues. Paul of Aegina (ca 625-690 ad) perfected his medical skills in the School of Alexandria in Egypt. His medical encyclopedia, Medical Compendium, described a broad series of surgical operations, including a chapter “On the atresia of the auditory canal,” which vividly described a surgical technique to open the ear canal. This surgery is particularly interesting, as it exceeds the limits of resection and amputation known at that time and describes a novel surgical technique. His innovative methods paved the way for future surgeons.

SummaryFemoral capital physeal fractures (CPF) are common injuries in the immature cat. Fractures of the femoral head and neck have been classified by Daly (1) as capital, physeal, subcapital and transcervical. Physeal fractures may also be classified according to Salter (2) and those covered in this paper are Salter I and II.Perez-Aparicio and Fjeld (2) found that many cats become functional without surgical treatment although most developed malunion or non-union. Some of the untreated cats had persistent lameness.While femoral head and neck ostectomy (3), is often recommended and will usually lead to a functional result, particularly in the cat, open reduction and internal fixation is preferred (5, 6) as is recommended in the dog (8, 21).Fourteen femoral capital physeal fractures in 13 cats were repaired with fine pins. The surgical technique and clinical results are described. The authors feel that the ease of the technique and the clinical results make this the treatment of choice for injuries of this type in cats.
