A full-thickness skin graft is a commonly used method for repairing smaller nasal defects. Secondary healing simple alternative with many advantages, although it associated long duration of healing. The aim was to compare the short- and long-term results transplantation or secondary small wound defects after tumor excision. Adult patients admitted resection were randomized treatment either intent. Healing complications assessed at 1 4 weeks. Scar quality patient observer scar assessment scale (POSAS) 6 months postoperatively. Twenty-six included. Three healed within week in group, whereas none had group (SHG). time (median [interquartile range]) 35.0 (28.0-41.0) days 28.0 (12.0-48.0) SHG respectively (P = 0.47). Patient-POSAS scores reported better all items (pain, itching, color, stiffness, thickness, irregularity), not significantly. Observer-POSAS vascularity, pigmentation, relief 0.003, 0.007, 0.002, 0.01, respectively). did differ between 2 groups. cosmetic outcome showed promising SHG, suggesting that allowing superficial, surgery may be beneficial. However, strength this conclusion hampered by study group.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) represents a significant global health challenge, characterized by aggressive progression and poor therapeutic response despite advances in treatment modalities. This review provides comprehensive analysis of diverse death mechanisms OSCC, encompassing traditional pathways (apoptosis, autophagy, necrosis), newly (ferroptosis, pyroptosis, necroptosis), emerging (cuproptosis, anoikis, parthanatos, entosis). By examining the molecular basis these pathways, particularly crucial roles p53 signaling miRNA regulation, we highlight how their dysregulation contributes to resistance tumor progression. The synthesizes recent evidence demonstrating complex interplay between ten distinct impact on microenvironment immune response. We evaluate innovative approaches that target including novel small molecules, combination strategies, immunomodulatory treatments exploit specific enhance efficacy. Special attention is given personalized medicine strategies consider individual characteristics pathway profiles. integrating current challenges with future research directions, this framework for developing more effective can leverage multiple overcome therapy improve outcomes oral cancer patients.
