Corseting: A new technique for the management of diffuse venous malformations in the head and neck regionCorseting: A new technique for the management of diffuse venous malformations in the head and neck region
1) The study introduces the "corset suturing" technique for treating large diffuse venous malformations in the head and neck region. Corset suturing involves continuous suturing that incorporates the lesion and strangulates the vessels to induce occlusion.
2) The technique was performed on 90 patients with non-cutaneous venous malformations. Most lesions resolved within 4-8 weeks with minimal complications and good cosmetic outcomes.
3) While corset suturing provides an effective and low-cost alternative treatment, the study had limitations as a retrospective study without controls to fully evaluate the technique.

Epidermoid cysts represent most common benign, cutaneous cysts. Most frequently was seen on face, scalp, and trunk. It accounts for approximately 80% of follicular cyst of skin. Epidermoid cyst usually remains asymptomatic until it gets secondarily infected. Malignant changes are seen very rarely. We describe a case of the huge post auricular epidermoid cyst, which was encasing extra-temporal part of the facial nerve and was in close proximity to external carotid artery. The cyst was excised surgically and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of epidermoid cyst.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

International Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery (December 2018)
3. Introduction
• Venous malformations are characterised by an
abnormal collection of veins, which do not have
any demonstrable mitotic activity in endothelial or
pericyte cells and often lack a uniform smooth
muscle layer.
•The degree of ectasia increases with age and the
clinical features depend on the depth and size of
the lesion. Pheloboliths are often present in the
lesion.
(Colletti G, Colombo V, Mattassi R, Frigerio A. Strangling technique
to treat large cervicofacial venous malformations: a preliminary
report. Head & neck. 2014 Oct;36(10):E94-8.)
•Incidence: Most common vascular malformation,
estimated to occur in between 1 of 5000 and 1 of
10,000 childbirths
4. Classification of venous malformations
(Puig S, Aref H, Chigot V, Bonin B, Brunelle F. Classification of venous malformations in
children and implications for sclerotherapy. Pediatric radiology. 2003 Feb 1;33(2):99-103.)
Type Description
Type I Isolated malformation without peripheral
drainage
Type II Malformation that drains into normal veins
Type III Malformation that drains into dysplastic
veins
Type IV Venous ectasia
•Extra-truncular venous malformations are infiltrative
in nature and are inseparable from surrounding
tissues and vital structures

6. Aim of the study
To describe and introduce the corset suturing technique,
which is a simple, aesthetic, and cost-effective method for
the treatment of large venous malformations of the head
and neck.
Disadvantages of existing treatment modalities for venous malformations:
• Venous malformations in which surgery is hampered by localization
and extent of the lesion.
• Recurrent cases which are resistant/ not suitable for embolization,
sclerosants and surgery.
7. Subjects & Methods
• Study design- Retrospective study.
•Place of study- Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at
Bhagwan Mahaveer Jain Hospital, Bangalore.
•Duration of study: January 1999 to October 2017 (18 years)
•Study population: 235 patients with vascular lesions
8. Subjects & Methods
Inclusion criteria Exclusion criteria
Low-flow vascular malformations High-flow vascular malformations
Difficulty in speech Lesions having self-healing tendency
Difficulty in swallowing Lesions involving critical structures
such as eyes and carotid artery
Lesions causing primary facial
deformity Lesions in inaccessible spaces of head
and neck
9. Surgical technique
Incision: Placed within the junction lines of
cosmetic subunits and skin tension lines closest
to the area involving the lesion.
Raising the flap: Subcutanoeus or sub-SMAS
plane depending on the type of lesion
Corset suturing:
1. Bioresorbable sutures that runs in a
continuous vertical looping fashion from
subcutaneous to deep layers incorporating
the lesion within the suture
2. Suturing done in a parallel fashion covering
the whole lesion in superior, inferior, medial
and lateral direction.
3. Sutures were tightened cautiously and
slowly
10. Aimof corset suturing is to obliterate the
centrally placed low resistance vessels
while preserving the vital structures so
that involution of the lesion occurs.

13. Results
3-5days post op: Regression of the
local phenomena with reduction in
size of swelling. No suppuration
noted
4 week post op: Reduction in size
of tumour mass due to necrosis
and return to normal function
8 weeks post op: Lesion almost
disappeared. Patients attained
near normal appearance., color
and consistency.
Most malformations took 4-8 weeks to resolve.
Recurrence: 10 cases out of 90 required further treatment later like surgery and
intralesional injections.
Transient facial nerve palsy: 7 cases ( Type III: 5 & Type II: 2)
63 patients came for follow up for 18 years. Two patients were lost to follow up
after 1 year. Rest reported for a minimum 5 years follow up.
Postoperatively
14. Discussion
• Mechanism of action: This intra-tumoural ligation technique eliminates the
whole blood flow within the venous malformation by 2 effects:
1. Strangulated vessels produce buried scars that obstruct the vascular
channels.
2. Blood stasis within the sutures produces blood clots, which undergo
normal organization and occludes the vessels.
•Entrapment of vital structures like salivary glands and duct, lingual nerve,
facial nerve and its branches were avoided.
• Main complications encountered:
i. Transient facial nerve palsy (due to strangulation of nerves by the sutures
prior to their absorption)
ii. Soft tissue swelling and necrosis
iii. Haemorrhage
15. Discussion
Indications of corset suturing:
Diffuse vascular malformations of face
Intraoperatively unresectable vascular malformations
Recurrent vascular malformations
Large lesions involving vital structures
Advantages: Simple, cost-effective, aesthetically acceptable, no foreign
body reaction seen
Limitations:
1. Cutaneous/ mucosal lesions
2. High flow lesions
3. Airway compromised patients

malformations: a preliminary report. Head & neck. 2014 Oct;36(10):E94-8.
•This study aimed to describe
an ancillary approach to
address large VMs not
responsive to sclerotherapy,
when a radical removal is not
possible
Purpose
• Unresectable venous
malformations were
decompressed in 2 patients by
means of a number of
nonresorbable stitches from the
surface of the lesion to the
periosteum, tailoring a permanent
pressure dressing.
• The stitches were placed parallel
to the course of the facial nerve
fibers, in order to avoid any injury.
Methods • Outcomes at 12-month
follow-up were stable, with
good cosmetic results and
satisfaction reported by both
patients. No long-term side
effects related to the
procedure were observed.
Conclusion
19. Limitations of this study
Retrospective nature of the study.
No randomisation/ blinding has been done to reduce the bias.
There are nopreoperative CTorMRI for the reader to perceive the
extent of the malformations and, hence, the indications for surgical
treatment, given that the accepted first approach to venous
malformations was, and still is, sclerotherapy.
Extensive use of CT over MRI, which is considered as a gold standard
for diagnosis and staging of venous malformations, not to mention the
exposure to radiation.
(Colletti G, Ierardi AM. Understanding venous malformations of the head and neck: a
comprehensive insight. Medical Oncology. 2017 Mar 1;34(3):42.)
20. Limitations of this study
This paper reportedly deals with venous malformations, but in the
table “indications, advantages and limitations of corset suturing” the
authors invoke the term ‘haemangioma’, which is another disease.
Dessy et al in their letter to the editor of IJOMS claimed that Nair’s
corseting technique is far too similar to the ‘strangling technique’ by
Colletti et al and thus, cannot be surmised as a new one.
(Dessy M, Giovanditto F, Cucurullo M, Dionisio A, Liberale C, Colletti G. Considerations on
the'corseting'or'strangling'technique to treat large venous malformations. International
journal of oral and maxillofacial surgery. 2018 Oct.)
21. Conclusion
Corset suturing has an important role in the management of large
venous malformations of head and neck, with careful case selection as
described.
It is a simple, cost-effective and less scarring method of treatment of
non-cutaneous venous malformations of head and neck that may
provide an effective alternative to other expensive methods like
embolization.
Corset suturing can be done parallel to the facial nerve branches in
order to prevent transient facial nerve palsy.
Editor's Notes
Complications of venous malformations in head and neck:
Facial disfigurement, bleeding and pain.
Compression of the adjoining structures, which may have a severe impact on swallowing, speech, and respiratory function.
All the patients selected for the study were grouped according to the anatomic location of the vascular lesions.
The authors divided the venous malformations according to 5 different types according to the anatomic location
A corset is a garment worn to hold and train the torso into the desired shape for aesthetic/ orthopaedic purposes
Sutures were placed at regular and equidistant intervals, resulting in compression of vascular spaces, afferent and efferent vessels.
The regional vascular channels which are present randomly within the lesion. Drains were given before wound closure.
This leads to interruption of blood supply within the lesion
