Ki67 as a proliferation marker plays critical role in assessing cellular activity various pathological tissues, including cystic lesions. Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) and radicular cysts (RCs) are two common types of jaw that exhibit distinct biological behaviors, particularly their proliferative patterns. OKCs known for aggressive nature high recurrence rate, while RCs typically less lower risk. By evaluating the expression Ki67, nuclear protein linked to cell proliferation, researchers...
Background: Cocaine is a recreational drug known for its negative impact on health and social economic life. One of the complications cocaine abusers cocaine-induced midline destructive lesion (CIMDL) syndrome, which includes extensive destruction osteocartilaginous structures nose, sinus, palate. Methods: Here, we describe three cases surgical management CIMDL using temporalis muscle flap combined with Le Fort I osteotomy, allows sufficient space to settle. Results: The addition osteotomy...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability 6-mm-long implants compared with normal-length placed in a vertical augmented atrophic posterior mandible, supporting cemented single crowns. Thirty-six patients bilateral edentulous mandible and presenting bone availability height less than 9 mm from mandibular canal were enrolled study. Patient hemiarches randomized receive both (10 mm). technique used for augmentation "sandwich" technique, using substitute block as graft. data outcomes...
Organ transplant recipients are at a significantly higher risk of developing skin cancer compared to the general population, particularly cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. Approximately 3-8% these carcinomas located on scalp. Scalp reconstruction is challenging, especially for large excisions, due thickness scalp, inelastic aponeurosis galea, and integrity hair-bearing Additionally, in organ recipients, presence numerous comorbidities increased infection immunosuppressive therapy make...
Plasmacytoma is a neoplastic disorder originating from plasma cells, with bone and soft tissue being common sites of manifestation. This report presents the clinical radiological findings 65-year-old female patient who presented an exophytic lesion in upper right lateral incisor region. The appeared as unilocular radiotransparent area imaging tests. Following excisional biopsy, histological immunohistochemical evaluations confirmed presence mature plasmacellular elements small infiltrates B...
The aim of this study was to understand the impact COVID-19 pandemic on epidemiology maxillofacial trauma in a regional center L'Aquila, Abruzzo, Italy, during first wave and comparted it an equivalent period from 2015 2018. authorshave retrospectively analyzed personal data, site trauma, etiology, mechanism injury. Statistical analysis has been carried out utilizing IBM SPSS Statistics software (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY) significance accepted for P values <0.05. From January December 2020,...
Background: The definition of patients with special needs (SNs) is used in the literature to refer individuals mental and physical disorders for whom usual perioperative pathways are not applicable due lack cooperation, regardless age. Studies recognize appropriateness general anesthesia performing day surgery dental care this type patient. Objectives: main objective was assess possible incidence difficult airway management, understood as difficulty ventilating and/or intubating A secondary...
Piezoelectric bone surgery, simply known as Piezosurgery(®), is a new promising technique for cutting based on ultrasonic microvibrations that allows to perform precise and thin osteotomies with soft tissue sparing.A 45-years-old woman presenting progressive left ocular pain, diplopia the lateral gaze, visible exophthalmos was admitted our department. CT scan MRI images documented supero-lateral orbital lesion. A orbitotomy using piezoelectric scalpel performed. The tumour (lacrimal gland...
One of the problems in neurosurgery is how to perform rapid and effective craniotomies that minimize risk injury underlying eloquent structures. The traditional high-powered pneumatic tools saws are efficient terms speed penetration, but they can provoke bone necrosis sometimes damage neurovascular As an alternative, we evaluated piezoelectric scalpel (piezosurgery), a device potentially allows thinner more precise cutting without lesioning neighboring delicate structures, even case...
Dental implants have revolutionized modern dentistry, providing an effective solution for the replacement of missing teeth. However, long-term success dental can be compromised by development biofilms on their surfaces. Biofilms are complex microbial communities embedded in a self-produced extracellular matrix, and they play crucial role pathogenesis various oral diseases, including peri-implantitis. This article aims to explore relationship between implant roughness biofilm formation,...
Intraorbital encephalocele is a rare entity characterized by the herniation of cerebral tissue inside orbital cavity through defect roof. In patients who have experienced head trauma, intraorbital usually secondary to roof fracture.We describe here case patient presented an 2 years after severe traumatic brain injury, treated decompressive craniectomy and subsequent autologous cranioplasty, without any evidence fracture. The removal reconstruction were performed using modification...
The definition of patients with Special Needs (SN) is used in the literature to refer individuals mental and physical disorders for whom usual perioperative pathways are not applicable due lack cooperation, regardless age. Studies recognize appropriateness general anesthesia performing day surgery dental care this type patient. present retrospective, single-center, observational study involved 41 uncooperative aged between 3 17 undergoing under anesthesia. main objective was assess possible...
The technology adoption and creation of a multidisciplinary team have helped to overcome the complexity associated. Craniofacial surgery has thus emerged from valuable contributions neurosurgery, maxillofacial surgery, plastic eyes, nose, throat as well head neck surgery. A patient with trigonocephaly may present prominent "keel" forehead, accompanied by recession lateral orbit rims, hypotelorism, constriction anterior frontal fossa when metopic suture fuses before 6 months age. In period...
The choice of an effective analgesic and anesthetic technique usually poses a challenge in polytrauma patients requiring satisfactory pain control emergency surgery. In this case report, we describe patient under anticoagulant therapy who presented to the department with multiple fractures thoracic lumbar area needed splenectomy drainage placement. use bilateral continuous erector spinae plane block, novel interfascial ensured efficacy, without side effects was helpful avoiding opioids.
The aim of this retrospective article is to evaluate postoperative outcomes after extracapsular dissection for small benign superficial parotid neoplasms (<3 cm) in patients who received Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System (SMAS) flap and did not receive it.
