Approach OPEN ACCESS Keywords Abhishek Bhardwaj*, Sudhagar Eswaran, and Hari Shankar • Ranula Niranjan • Submandibular gland Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Vardhmann Mahavir Medical College and • Pharynx Safdarjung Hospital, India • Skull Base • Neck Abstract Plunging ranula extending into parapharyngeal space till the skull base with associated absence of submandibular gland is a rare finding. Transcervical approach for its excision is a challenging procedure in view of limited exposure and presence of important neurovascular structures in the field. We present a clinical case of a left sided plunging ranula extending into the parapharyngeal space till skull base in a 19 year old male who presented to a tertiary care hospital with complaints of slowly increasing swelling in neck and oral cavity for duration of six months. Ultrasound neck revealed well defined heterogeneously hypoechoic collection in left submandibular region. Contrast enhanced computed tomography revealed a non-enhancing, cystic mass involving left submandibular space extending into left parapharyngeal space till skull base and absent left submandibular gland. Ranula measuring 10cm*6cm was excised in to by tanscervical approach without damage to any neurovascular structure. Histopathology was consistent with low ranula. Patient is in follow up for past six months without any recurrence.

The fibrous connective tissue that constitutes the cervical fascia varies from loose areolar tissue to dense fibrous bands. This fascia serves to envelope the muscles, nerves, vessels and viscera of the neck, thereby forming planes and potential spaces that serve to divide the neck into functional units. It functions to both direct and limit the spread of disease processes in the neck. The cervical fascia can be divided into a simpler superficial layer and a more complex deep layer that is further subdivided into superficial, middle and deep layers. The superficial layer of cervical fascia ensheaths the platysma in the neck and extends superiorly in the face to cover the mimetic muscles. It is the equivalent of subcutaneous tissue elsewhere in the body and forms a continuous sheet from the head and neck to the chest, shoulders and axilla. The superficial layer of the deep cervical fascia is also known as the investing layer. It follows the “rule of twos”—it envelops two muscles, two glands and forms two spaces. It originates from the spinous processes of the vertebral column and spreads circumferentially around the neck.

Abstract Background: Methadone is an effective long acting opioid analgesic used to manage nociceptive and neuropathic pain. Its unique lipophilic properties, absence of active metabolites and high volume of distribution allows for delivery routes that are distinct and innovative enabling patients uninterrupted and effective pain control in the last days of life. Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore the effectiveness and ease of administration of atomized methadone solution on the buccal mucosa when alternative routes including rectal and sublingual were seen as less desirable by families and health care providers in patients in the last days of life that could no longer swallow medications.

Bhatt1 Received: 16 October 2017 /Revised: 19 February 2018 /Accepted: 1 March 2018 /Published online: 19 April 2018 # The Author(s) 2018 Abstract Divided by the mylohyoid muscle, the sublingual and submandibular spaces represent a relatively small part of the oral cavity, but account for a disproportionate amount of pathological processes. These entities are traditionally separated into congenital, infectious/inflammatory, vascular and neoplastic aetiologies. This article reviews the relevant anatomy, clinical highlights and distinguishing imaging features necessary for accurate characterisation. Teaching Points • The mylohyoid sling is a key anatomical landmark useful in surgical planning. • Congenital lesions and infectious/inflammatory processes constitute the majority of pathology. • Depth of invasion is key when staging tumours in the oral cavity.

Unless otherwise stated all figures and tables by Peter Attia When I began putting my notes together on random pieces of paper and my Palm Pilot, I did not intend to do much else with them. However, in time, they became so numerous that I needed to organize them in a better way. A resident from the Brigham whom I worked with in the lab at NIH encouraged me to put them together in what he jokingly referred to as an “Attia Bible” of surgical wisdom, something he had done with his own notes. The intent of these notes was not as much to be a review for a specific test per se, as it was an “all‐purpose” compilation of salient points to consider as I go through residency. Of course, these notes come with the standard disclaimer that they are not meant to replace reading from primary sources, rather to supplement it.
