    We present the discovery of a transiting massive giant planet around TOI-4603, a sub-giant F-type star from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). The newly discovered planet has a radius of 1.042−0.035+0.0381.042^{+0.038}_{-0.035} RJR_{J}, and an orbital period of 7.24599−0.00021+0.000227.24599^{+0.00022}_{-0.00021} days. Using radial velocity measurements with the PARAS {and TRES} spectrographs, we determined the planet's mass to be 12.89−0.57+0.5812.89^{+0.58}_{-0.57} MJM_{J}, resulting in a bulk density of 14.1−1.6+1.714.1^{+1.7}_{-1.6} g cm−3{cm^{-3}}. This makes it one of the few massive giant planets with extreme density and lies in the transition mass region of massive giant planets and low-mass brown dwarfs, an important addition to the population of less than five objects in this mass range. The eccentricity of 0.325±0.0200.325\pm0.020 and an orbital separation of 0.0888±0.00100.0888\pm0.0010 AU from its host star suggest that the planet is likely undergoing high eccentricity tidal (HET) migration. We find a fraction of heavy elements of 0.13−0.06+0.050.13^{+0.05}_{-0.06} and metal enrichment of the planet (ZP/ZstarZ_{P}/Z_{star}) of 4.2−2.0+1.64.2^{+1.6}_{-2.0}. Detection of such systems will offer us to gain valuable insights into the governing mechanisms of massive planets and improve our understanding of their dominant formation and migration mechanisms.Comment: accepted for publication in A&A Letter

    Complications in orthognathic surgery: An expeditious appraisal

    No full text
    Orthognathic surgery is a aesthetic as well as functional correction surgery of jaw and face. Since it is an elective procedure it comes with its due benefits and complications. There should be a clear distinction between malpractics and complications. The complications could be foreseen if the cause is detected early and adequate treatment provided. The role of oral and maxillofacial surgeons comes into play with a proper understanding of the types, causes and treatment of complications and should deliver this information to patients who develop these complications
