AbstractLocal anesthetics are the most commonly used drugs in dentistry. Despite preoperative patient evaluation, proper tissue preparation and meticulous administration techniques many local and systemic complications with the local anesthesia or tooth extraction have been reported from time to time. Extension of dental infections from maxillary teeth and other nearby structures to orbital spaces and tissues surrounding the eye present a rare but serious problem with the potential for causing significant impairment. The practioner should be aware of the severe consequences that may result from tooth extraction or local anesthesia.

Abstract Aims Acute cutaneous abscess is a common surgical condition which mostly require incision and drainage. Despite this, there is no standardised national or international guidance on the post-operative antibiotics prescription. Traditionally, antibiotics are not indicated unless complications and/or risk factors such as immunocompromisation, diabetes or cellulitis exist. We aimed to study the local practice of the post-operative antibiotics prescription for cutaneous abscesses in a University teaching hospital in London. Methods A retrospective data collection of emergency general surgical admissions for a period of six months from July to December 2020 was carried out. All patients with superficial skin abscess were included in this analysis. Scrotal, breast and limb abscesses were excluded. Patients’ demographics, Co-morbidities, local and systemic complications were studied. Results A total of 149 patients presented during this period. Mean age was 40 (54% were male). Most common site of abscess was perianal (24%), followed by pilonidal, axilla, back, gluteal, neck, abdominal wall and groin. At total of 108 (72.5%) were managed surgically with incision and drainage, 70 (65%) got antibiotics and only 23 (33%) had indications for it (i.e. diabetic, immunocompromised, sepsis, cellulitis, MRSA carriage) = (χ2[1] =22.03, p<.0001). Co-amoxiclav was the most common post-operative empirical antibiotic prescribed in 61% of the patients.  Conclusions This study has identified significant variation in clinical practice regarding post-operative antibiotic usage in superficial abscesses. Further research is required in cooperation with microbiologists to develop standardised evidence-based treatment protocol for management of such common surgical condition.

Crohn's disease (CD) is chronic recurrent bowel disease of unknown etiology, characterized by segmental transmural granulomatous inflammation, mainly with the development of local and systemic complications. Despite the active development of conservative therapy methods, the number of drug-resistant forms of CD and complications of the disease requiring surgical treatment continues to increase. The article reflects modern scientific ideas about the methods of diagnosis, conservative and surgical treatment of CD in children.

Impacted Third Molar

Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare genetic disease that results from deficiency or dysfunction of C1 inhibitor (C1-INH). This disease is characterized by sudden attacks of angioedema. When edema occurs in the pharynx or larynx, it can lead to serious airway compromise, including death. Physical and/or psychological stress can trigger an attack. Dental treatment, including tooth extraction, is also a recognized trigger. We report a case of a 20-year-old male with HAE who required impacted third molar extractions. C1-INH concentrate was administered 1 hour before surgery, which was completed under deep intravenous sedation. This report describes the anesthetic management of a patient with HAE and reviews treatment options and concerns.
