Intraoral herniation of the buccal fat pad is traumatic lesion of oral cavity occurring in young children. It frequently presents as an expanding pedunculated mass of soft tissue emanating from the buccal mucosa following a minor trauma to the buccal soft tissues. This article aims to report an interesting and rare lesion, wherein a tiny traumatic perforation of the buccal mucosa and buccinator muscle forced a large portion of the buccal fat pad to extrude into the oral cavity in a young boy. Such a situation can alarm any clinician and reinforces the importance of careful history taking and thorough examination, before treating patients.

Oro-antral fistula is an unnatural, pathological and epithelised communication between oral cavity and maxillary sinus. It is mainly due to improper Instrumentation during extraction of maxillary premolars and molars. Closure of oro-antral fistula by suturing of buccal fat pad with palatal flap has shown a high success rate because of its rich vascularity and location. Role of PRF is like icing on the cake in healing of oral defects. PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin ) is a healing biomaterial which form a strong natural fibrin matrix which promotes healing. In this case, oro-antral communication was created after the extraction of #16 , which was closed with buccal fat pad along with PRF and monitored until complete epithelisation of socket was achieved.

The buccal fat pad is an encapsulated mass located within the buccal facial spaces. It is relatively large in neonate and infants. A tiny perforation on buccal mucosa, fascia or buccinator muscle can lead to the herniation of buccal fat pad in young children. Trauma is the most common etiology. Such situation demands careful examination of oral cavity and thorough history taking to avoid any misdiagnosis. This paper reports a clinical presentation and management of herniation of buccal fat pad on a 22-month-old-girl following trauma to her left cheek region with sugarcane.

Abstract An uncommon traumatic pseudolipoma of the oral cavity is presented. In this particular case there was evidence of previous trauma to the buccal fat pad during a difficult extraction of a maxillary premolar. Evidence is presented that iatrogenic trauma resulting in foreign body introduction might produce traumatic pseudolipoma in the oral cavity. The morphology of the buccal fat pad, the possible pathogenisis of the condition, as well as the diagnostic and the management of the case are presented.

ABSTRACTA buccal fat pad (BFP) as a flap for reconstruction of defects in the oral cavity has been described for a variety of benign conditions. We describe the indications, advantages, and complications of the BFP flap and report our clinical experience with the flap for intraoral reconstruction after tumor removal. From 2005 to 2008, we analyzed 29 patients in the age range of 32 to 82 years old who underwent a pedicled BFP flap reconstruction for oral defects after intraoral tumor removal. Postoperative wound healing and complications including any recurrence was followed-up prospectively. Most of the patients had an uneventful immediate postoperative period with signs of buccal fat pad epithelialization by the end of the first week and complete epithelialization at the end of the first month. On continued follow-up, a linear band of fibrous tissue under the epithelialized mucosa replaced the once reconstructed buccal fat pad. Three patients had varying degrees of hemorrhage: one of them had hematoma that healed with severe fibrosis and of the remaining two, one had a partial flap loss and one had a complete flap loss. Judicious use of buccal fat pad reconstruction offers a simple, convenient, and reliable way to reconstruct small to medium defects of the oral cavity with low morbidity, even in older patients who would not be able to tolerate time-consuming flap reconstruction procedures.

The buccal fat pad is an anatomic structure, which contributes significantly to the prominence of the newborn’s and infant’s cheek. It is probably important in the suckling mechanism. In this article a case of unusual protrusion of this structure into the oral cavity of an infant is described. Besides the two-years of follow-up, a review of the literature is presented and a differential diagnosis is outlined. J Clin Pediatr Dent 29(2): 181-184, 2004

RESUMOA Comunicação Buco-Sinusal (CBS) é um incidente cirúrgico que pode ocorrer durante a exodontia de dentes maxilares posteriores devido à intimidade de suas raízes com o assoalho do seio maxilar. As CBSs com diâmetro de até 2mm tendem a curar-se sem tratamento específico. Entretanto, as maiores que 3mm se não tratadas adequadamente, podem evoluir para complicações tais como sinusite maxilar recorrente, alteração do timbre nasal além da passagem de líquidos da cavidade bucal para a nasal através do óstio dentre outras. Este trabalho tem por objetivo discutir as técnicas mais utilizadas para o fechamento de CBS comparando-as com a técnica que utiliza o corpo adiposo bucal (Bola de Bichat), avaliando suas vantagens e desvantagens. As bases de dados digitais acessadas foram PubMed, MEDLINE, LILACS, Scopus compreendendo artigos em inglês entre o período de 1988 a 2016. Concluímos que o uso desta técnica apresenta excelentes resultados com poucas complicações, restituindo ao paciente uma condição de normalidade.Palavras-Chave: Fístula Bucoantral, Fístula Bucosinusal, Corpo adiposo bucal, bola de Bichat, Comunicação Bucosinusal. ABSTRACTOroantral Communication (OC) is a surgical incident that can occur during posterior maxillary teeth extraction due to the anatomical intimacy of its roots with the lining of the maxillary sinus. OC up to 2mm in diameter can cure without specific treatment. However, as larger than 3mm if left untreated, they may progress to complications such as recurrent maximal sinusitis, alteration of the nasal timbre beyond the passage of the oral cavity to a nasal through the ostium, among others. Several surgical techniques have been developed for the treatment of OC. This paper aims to review the literature on how to evaluate the most commonly used techniques for closing the OC, comparing them with a technique that uses the buccal adipose body (Bichat Ball), discussing its advantages and advantages. The digital databases accessed were PubMed, MEDLINE, LILACS and Scopus comprising articles in English from 1988 to 2016. This study allows us to conclude that the use of this technique presents excellent results with few complications, restoring the patient to a normal condition.Key-Words: Oroantral fistula, Oroantral communication, buccal fat pad, bichat fat pad
