This study approaches the history of reclassifications and redefinitions around odontogenic keratocyst (OK), as proposed by World Health Organization (WHO), aims to understand impact those changes on prevalence epidemiology tumors (OTs).Cases OTs diagnosed in an Oral Pathology service between January 1996 December 2016 were reviewed. Demographic data patients such age, gender site lesions retrieved from their respective records.Within studied period, 7,805 microscopic reports elaborated 200...
Cyanocrylates have been widely used in the medical and dental fields for several years. In Dentistry, cyanoacrylates suturing, pulp capping, as retrofilling material endodontic surgeries, cervical plug pulpless teeth bleaching. The biocompatibility of these adhesives has topic many researches subcutaneous implantation is an effective methodology studies. present study evaluated three different cyanoacrylate-based adhesives. Thirty-six Wistar rats were used, divided into four groups 9 animals...
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic fungal infection caused by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis (Pb) and associated with deficient cellular immune response, which modulated inflammatory cells, mainly macrophages, cytokines. Recently, the comprehension of macrophage polarization mediated Th1 Th2 cytokines has contributed to elucidate response that takes part in some diseases. Thus, aim this study was assess presence Th1- Th2-immune also Pb counting oral lesions chronic PCM.Forty-eight...
Background: Paracoccidioidomycosis, a deep mycosis endemic in parts of Latin America, often presents with oral lesions involving the gingiva. Nevertheless, periodontal literature is devoid references to paracoccidioidomycosis. The purpose this study was characterize gingival involvement paracoccidioidomycosis and contrast clinical histopathologic diagnosis disease. Differential management were reviewed. Methods: From January 1995 October 2006, files Oral Pathology Laboratory, School...
Abstract Aim: This study aimed at reviewing a series of clinical cases children and adolescents treated for idiopathic bone cavity (IBC). Methods: Ten lesions diagnosed as IBC in nine patients between February 2000 December 2008 were reviewed, focusing on radiographic aspects, well the therapeutic approach. Results: Most Caucasian with no sex predilection (55.5% males 45.5% females), all second decade life time diagnosis. The asymptomatic detected during routine examinations. All located...
In the past, osteomyelitis was frequent and characterized by a prolonged course, treatment response uncertainty, occasional disfigurement. Today, disease is less common; it believed that decline in prevalence may be attributed to increased availability of antibiotics improvement overall health patterns. Currently, more common variants are seen, namely, osteoradionecrosis (ORN) bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis jaws (BRONJ). Osteomyelitis, ORN, BRONJ can present with similar symptoms,...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence periapical cysts, identify their clinical and microscopic features correlate with inflammatory infiltrate present in lesion site. A total 214 cases were collected over a 10-year period. Clinical data, including gender, age, race, symptoms location lesion, recorded. Two independent examiners no prior knowledge patients' data conducted evaluations. Statistical analyses performed using Fisher's or chi-square tests at 5% level significance....
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate correlation between clinical and histopathological diagnoses periapical inflammatory lesions, focusing mainly on cystic conditions. Files dating from 1998 2006 at Oral Pathology Laboratory, School Dentistry, Alfenas Federal University, Brazil, were reviewed identify cases with lesions. A total 1788 files analyzed, 255 identified most prevalent diagnosis apical periodontal cyst (59%), followed by granuloma (20%), dentoalveolar abscess (2%)....
