This can be caused by right-to-left or bidirectional shunting, or malposition of the great arteries.

On the other hand, if the malposition is not recognized until months or years later, simple procedures will prove inefficient, and a surgical operation will become necessary.

That is why there is a significant risk of superior eyebrow malposition, especially if a horizontal or oblique oriented forehead flap is used.

Clinicians will subjectively determine the malformation based on the degree of malposition and the extent of thickened abnormal grey differentiation present.

The deflection from a contour which is defined as "ideal" is interpreted as malposition or as a change of the process behaviour and is compensated subsequently.

Alternatively, secondary placement of a tissue expander in the forehead can be used to correct the eyebrow malposition and to excise the skin graft and primarily close the forehead defect.

Capnography provides a rapid and reliable method to detect life-threatening conditions (malposition of tracheal tubes, unsuspected ventilatory failure, circulatory failure and defective breathing circuits) and to circumvent potentially irreversible patient injury.
