Blunt trauma to the parotid resulting in the formation of a sialocele is rare, with only three cases identified in the literature. We present a unique case involving a 32-year-old man with blunt trauma resulting in a left mandibular angle fracture. The patient underwent open reduction and internal fixation of the left mandibular angle fracture via transoral approach. At follow-up, after resolution of the edema from the injury, a sialocele was noted in the region of the left anterior parotid gland. The patient was treated conservatively with antisialagogues, pressure dressings, and multiple percutaneous aspirations that ultimately resulted in resolution of the sialocele.

Objectives: To compare the outcome of treatment of mandibular angle fracture by using intra oral, vs. transbuccal approaches in terms of complications. Setting: Oral & Maxillofacial surgery department, Faculty of dentistry Liaquat University of Medical & Health Sciences, Jamshoro/ Hyderabad. Duration: 1st March 2017 to 31st August 2017. Design: Randomized controlled trail. Subject and Methods: 180 patients consuming bilateral mandible angle fracture were involved in this study. 90 randomly allocated patients were managed with transbuccal approach and 90 managed by intra oral approach. Follow up was continued for each patient after every one week for 8 weeks. Results: The average age of the patients was 35.09±5.96 years. Rate of infection, malocclusion, scar formation, facial nerve injury and non-union was significantly low in transbuccal approach as compare to intra oral approach. Conclusion: In conclusion, transbuccal approach was preferred over the intra oral approach due to easy usage, negligible requirement for plate twisting, and enablement of plate engagement in the neutral mid-point zone.

Background: Fracture of the vertical mandibular units caused by trauma are very common, difficulty in clinical diagnostics, if the emergency management is incorrect it will be dangerous to life of patients. Objective of this study: describe the clinical and radiological characteristics of fracture of the vertical mandibular units. Materials and method: Cross-sectional descriptive methods on 71 patients with the fracture of the vertical mandibular units caused by trauma, examined and treated at the Hue University Hospital and Hue Central Hospital from 05/2012 to 04/2013. Results: the majority of the patients were males (83.1%), 19 - 39 years of age (63.4%), the most common cause was road traffic accident (77.5%). The majority of them had associated fractures (74.6%), associated horizontal mandibular fracture (63.4%), occuring often in parasymphyseal region (49.4%). The majority of the vertical mandibular fracture were caused by traumatic force on parasymphyseal region (49.4%) and direction of traumatic force on one side of mandible (63.3%). Condylar fracture (55.0%) was the most fracture of vertical mandibular units, followed by mandibular angle fracture (38%); mandibular angle fracture is often unfavorable (92.6%) and displaced (63.0%) fracture; the majority of the condylar fracture was condylar head (48.7%) and displaced fracture (61.5%). The most common symptoms were difficult chewing (97.2%), painful swelling (91.5%), limited mouth openning (88.7%), throbbing pain (85.9%) and malocclusion (77.5%). The rate of films used to diagnose including panorama (97.2%), facial film (54.9%), oblique lateral film (45.0%) and CT Scans (39.4%). The rate of fractured detection of CTScans is 100%, of panoramic and posterior-anterior radiographs in mandibular angle fracture was in succession 100% and 94.4%, in condylar fracture was 94.9% and 26.3%. Conclusion: vertical mandibular fracture occured often in condyle and angle, associated often with parasymphyseal fractures; clinical diangosis based on limited mouth openning, throbbing pain and malocclusion; radiographs used often and had high rate of fractured detection were panorama and CT Scans. Key words: vertical mandibular fracture, clinical and radiological characteristics

The treatment of mandibular angle fractures involves several postsurgical complications and is in greater demand when compared to therapeutic approaches for other types of mandibular fractures. Such postsurgical complications as bleeding, swelling, infection, dehiscence, pseudoarthrosis and paresthesia might affect individuals in both sexes and at all age groups. The presence of a mandibular third molar, a cross-sectional area thinner than the tooth-bearing region, and biomechanical forces might hamper the surgery, making it longer and more complex. Internal fixation is aimed at undisturbed healing under condition of functional and without any period of intermaxillary fixation. Adequate fixation depends on different fracture types, patients' general health and compliance, and the timing of the operation. This case report involves a mandibular angle fracture successfully treated with the lag screw technique, a simple approach to treat one of the most common fractures involving the mandible, quickly restoring the patient ́s oral functions.

This case report aimed to describe a surgical technique combining a secured pin intermandibular ventral epoxy resin (SPIVER) frame and an acetabular plate to manage a complex mandibular fracture configuration in a puppy. A four-month-old, entire male, German wirehaired pointer was referred for assessment of a combination of recent (three days before hospitalisation) and older traumatic (45 days before hospitalisation) facial injuries inflicted by the dam. CT revealed multiple mandibular and maxillary fractures with complex acute mandibular fractures requiring surgical stabilisation. wo techniques were combined on stabilisation of the mandible: a single acetabular plate 2.7 to repair the mandibular angle fracture and a SPIVER frame to repair the comminuted mandibular fracture. Both fractures healed uneventfully, and the dog had normal jaw function one year postoperatively. Occlusion was not modified compared with the preoperative condition, considering that the patient already had a malocclusion defect due to old lesions. The combination of two different osteosynthesis techniques had satisfactory short-term and long-term outcomes in this puppy.

Removal of lower third molar corresponds to one of the most common procedures in oral surgery. The extraction can result in several intraoperative or postoperative complications, especially when fully impacted molars are involved. This case report describes a mandibular angle fracture following removal of a fully impacted lower third molar of a 41 years old male patient. The fracture occurred 3 days after the attempt to extract the tooth 38 by a dentist surgeon. Several factors influencing the possibility of fracture including gender, age, dental position, and angulation were reviewed and associated with the injury. A fracture line in the angular region of the jaw was observed in radiological and tomographic analysis, both essential to perform the diagnosis. Open reduction internal fixation treatment approach was realized to ensure the best patient’s recovery. We conclude that the difficult to maintain a soft diet and the complete dentition factor could have been determinant to cause the fracture.Descriptors: Mandibular Fractures; Fracture Fixation; Molar, Third.ReferencesAl-Belasy FA, Tozoglu S, Ertas U.
