1. "Complex facial access, from the base of the jaw to the temporal region. This surgery is part of the removal of a squamous cell carcinoma, induced by the combined consumption of tobacco and alcohol."

2. "2 year old boy fell from a second-floor balcony into a bush, and a tree branch penetrated into the orbit after causing a major laceration in the eyelid. The piece of wood penetrated the infra-temporal fossa via a fracture of the lateral wall.

To treat this case, multiple pieces of leaf and bark were carefully removed and the lesion was irrigated using antibiotic solution. The lid laceration was repaired, and a drain was placed.

Four years later, he had perfect visual acuity, complete eye motility, and a well-healed eyelid."

4. "A rifle bullet coming to a stop in a tenth of a second produces as much force as a heavy truck hitting someone. Today we illustrate this showing a case o massive facial destruction in a patient, which was shot in the face by a gun."

5. "A 25 year old man suffered from blunt head injury after being assaulted and had his face kicked several times by one of the assaulters. A cranio-orbital approach with orbital decompression was used and eye was repositioned; patient unfortunately evolved to right eye blindness."

6. "A man in his 50's was referred to hospital with recurrent carcinoma of the buccal mucosa with oro-cutaneous fistula and severe trismus.

He was referred to local hospital and surgery required large flap coverage for optimal resection of the tumour. He was operated for carcinoma cheek along with radical neck dissection with stripping of internal jugular vein on side of cancer. Also, he had undergone reconstruction for the buccal mucosal defect with pectoralis major myocutaneous flap cover. Patient was subjected to radio and chemotherapy."

7. "The patient had aneurysm in the aortic arc. Surgery was done via a centreline starotomy incision and the patient was connected to the heart lung machine."

8. "56 year old man was trapped by a car while cycling and dragged along by this one. He suffered severe injuries including burns of 4. degrees on the right side of the face. He also suffered several rib fractures, nose fractures and other fractures."

9. "Heel injury after a young man tried to stop a moving boat with his foot."

10. "This 65 year old woman was transferred to the Department of Hand and Plastic Surgery of Ume å University Clinic. She suffered from several tumours that were mainly present in the scalp and face during most of her adult life. According to the patient, several of her close family members suffered from similar tumours.

A previous histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of cylindromatosis. The patient was treated under general anaesthesia with tumour removal and cleft skin transplantation. In the first session, the skin of the scalp was carefully removed by grooming into the subgal plane and following the avascular compartment. A thorough hemostasis has been used and a mastered splitting skin transplant was used to reconstruct the scalp.
In a second session an excision of the skin of the neck and right ear was performed followed by a splitting skin transplant.

In addition, several tumours were cut out of the upper body and legs. The patient recovered well after both surgeries. Transplant intake after both operations was excellent, with nearly 100 % coverage after 2,5 weeks.

During a follow up examination 4 months after the first surgery, the aesthetic result of the surgery was excellent. The patient was finally provided with a matching wig covering the transplanted area.
She experienced a huge improvement in terms of confidence and social interaction skills with an improved quality of life."
