Gingival pathology is a daily presentation, however a small number of systemic conditions can manifest similar to a common gingival condition and have fatal results. Dentist referred 56-year-old woman to Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery department with a 2-week medical history of gingival bleeding not responding to local measures. Biopsy showed eosinophilic infiltrate and vasculitis, and blood tests showed positive markers including cytoplasmic antineutrophil cytoplasmatic antibodies. Granulomatosis with polyangiitis is a rare disease affecting the respiratory tract, blood vessels and kidneys. Oral lesions are rarely the primary presenting feature. When left untreated, most cases are fatal within a year of diagnosis. The diagnosis can only be made when certain criteria are found, including granular oral lesions exhibiting an eosinophilic inflammatory infiltrate on biopsy. With 5% of cases showing intraoral lesions as the primary feature, it is essential that dentists have the knowledge of this rare disease to refer and not to treat as a common gingival condition.

Life On Mars

The April issue of the FDJ was devoted to a series of articles about the specialty of oral surgery (OS), relating to both work and workforce. A twin track response by UK oral and maxillofacial surgeons may be summarised as a feeling that the debate so far has been rather one-sided and has not included any contribution from oral and maxillofacial surgeons, and a feeling that the Faculty of Dental Surgery (FDS) is less interested in and supportive of the specialty of oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) than it used to be (regardless of whether this is true).

Where we have been can tell us a great deal about where we are going. If we wish to direct the future, then understanding the past can help us see how much we actually influence that direction. Ignorance of the past, on the other hand, allows unrealistic expectations and creates unnecessary frustration. The history of accounting higher education in the United States is most informative for anyone who wants to influence the future direction of our profession. The purpose of this paper is to provide a brief overview of the history of accounting higher education in the U.S., from its beginnings to its settled position in the university. This historical overview informs us that the profession of public accounting had everything to do with establishing and growing accounting education. Around the time of the Second World War, however, forces were set in motion that would try to pull accounting education from the grasp of public accounting. The belittling of public accounting, first in the name of the new management accounting and then by the Foundation Reports, combined with public accounting leaders' ongoing desire for a five-year education requirement above all other educational reforms, resulted in accounting higher education's inability to single-mindedly identify its goals and work toward them.

Objective: To determine the outcome of surgical removal of oral pyogenic granuloma in terms of post-operative pain (POP), post-operative healing and post-operative infection. Materials and methods: This observational study was conducted at Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery department, Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences Jamshoro/Hyderabad, from October 2018 to March 2019. Patients of oral pyogenic granuloma, 18-45 years old and either of gender were included. Surgical process of oral pyogenic granuloma were done under local anesthetic by giving infiltration surrounding deep oral pyogenic granuloma by 2% Xylocaine along with adrenaline. Patients were followed for three weeks on weekly basis to access post-operative complications including post-operative healing. Data was collected via study proforma. Results: Total 37 patients took part in the study; their mean age was 47.86+7.61 years. On 1st week assessment all patients were noted with history of mild pain, moderate pain and severe pain (19, 10 and 8 cases respectively), while healing was achieved in 19 patients. On second week assessment 25 patients exhibited mild pain and 6 exhibited moderate pain and healing was achieved by 16 patients. On 3rd week assessment, only 09 patients exhibited mild pain and mostly were healed few cases showed minor infection. Conclusion: It was concluded that surgical removal is valuable procedure for the management of pyogenic granuloma of oral cavity with lower rates of post-operative infection and pain, and highest rates of post-operative healing.

Freedom Of Thought

This chapter explores Presbyterian influences and involvement in higher education. It begins by using Princeton as an historic lens to examine the “Presbyterian ideals” of reason and education, liberty, and differentiation. The Presbyterian regard for freedom of thought and intellectual edification produced denominational schools throughout the history of higher education, especially in the United States, that differed substantially in their overarching philosophies, approaches to learning, curricula, and emphases on Christian piety. The second part of the chapter identifies the proliferating diversity at the intersection of Presbyterianism and the higher education landscape in the twentieth century. It describes differentiation by theology, denominations, geography, and culture. The chapter ends with brief ruminations on the future roles and stability of Presbyterian higher education.
