Correction: Omission of informed consent statements for the use of photographs, errors in describing consent for using photographs of minors, and absence of statements regarding conflict of interest of editorial board membership

doi:10.7181/acfs.2024.00001.c

Five articles, including three review articles, one original article, and one case report, published in the Archives of Craniofacial Surgery between February 2021 and April 2024 require corrections. One article failed to include descriptions of informed consent for the use of photographs, and two articles inaccurately described the consent process for using photographs of minors. It is important to clarify that the editorial office had already secured informed consent for all manuscripts upon their submission. Additionally, two articles did not include a statement indicating authorship by an editorial board member. The authors were not involved in selecting peer reviewers, evaluating papers, or making publication decisions. No other potential conflicts of interest relevant to this article were reported. The editorial office apologizes for these oversights and issues the following corrigenda:
