We write to highlight an important clinical point that we recently encountered in a patient who had been treated by resection of the floor of the mouth. His past medical history included ischaemic heart disease and he was admitted for operation with an already prescribed glycerol trinitrate spray "as required" for his cardiac problems. Although there are many different ways to deliver the drug, a spray on to the sublingual mucosa provides the fastest response.

The intraoperative cytological assessment of bony resection margins (ICAB) is a feasible diagnostic approach to support frozen section for assessment of invasion of margins of soft and hard tissue. However, complex resection margins could challenge both diagnostic approaches. Our objective here was to identify the limitations of intraoperative diagnostic methods for assessing margins. We present an advanced cytological approach to assess complex margins that may solve the problem. Data from 119 patients in whom frozen section was supported by ICAB, were reviewed and the reasons for false results analysed.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether continuous paravertebral block at levels T1 and T2 with bupivacaine infusion can improve the survival of free flaps in maxillofacial reconstruction. The study was designed as a randomized controlled trial and included 36 adult patients scheduled for maxillofacial free flap reconstruction under general anesthesia. Patients were randomly divided into two groups: patients in group A received continuous paravertebral block at levels T1 and T2, while patients in group B served as controls.
