A case report of the 5-year treatment path of a female patient with Nemaline Rod Myopathy treated by the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and the Department of Craniofacial Orthodontics at the Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio is presented. Myopathic patients present with disease-specific facies that requires extensive surgical intervention. Additionally, these patients are medically complex, requiring extensive pre and post-surgical planning to avoid adverse events. Our multi-disciplinary and multi-staged treatment plan required no extended post-surgical hospital stays or emergent interventions and she was to reach her stated goal of closing her lips and speaking.

Ludwig's Angina

Dental implant surgery is a common procedure in oral and maxillofacial surgery practices. Extensive training, skill, and experience allow this procedure to be performed with an atraumatic approach, but like any surgical technique, it is subject to accidents and complications. This is an unusual clinical case of an accidental displacement of an implant into the submandibular space that progressed to Ludwig’s angina, and it has not yet been described in the literature. This case report describes a clinical case of dental implant displaced into the submandibular space after healing cap removal. After seven days, it progressed to Ludwig’s angina. The removal was performed through extraoral access in the submandibular area by using hemostatic forceps and radioscopic technique. After implant removal, the clinical case showed a satisfactory repair emphasizing the importance of a meticulous clinical planning to achieve an appropriate treatment plan, which is essential for a favorable prognosis. Therefore, prevention and management of displaced objects requires proper planning and surgical technique.

Abstract A 15-year-old girl with ectodermal dysplasia who had been treated previously with minimal orthodontic intervention and removal prosthesis was seen and evaluated at the General Practice Program at the University of Kentucky. After consultations with orthodontics and oral and maxillofacial surgery, an interdisciplinary staged treatment plan was developed to address her skeletal and dental issues. The authors briefly review the literature with respect to current therapy for patients with ectodermal dysplasia and present the case as an example of the coordinated care provided for a patient with complex skeletal and dental issues.

(1) Background: Oronasal communication is described in the scientific literature as a common complication that occurs after a cleft palate surgery. In some cases, it can also be a consequence of oral surgery procedures; the main problem of this type of rare accident is related to the correct healing process and treatment option. (2) Case report: A patient with oronasal communication caused by an unsuccessful attempt of a superior canine odontectomy presented at the Emergency Department of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Hospital, Timișoara. The case management is described from the first consult to one-year follow-up. We consider that this pathology was optimally treated surgically, and the results are more than satisfactory, taking into consideration the high rates of recurrence. (3) Conclusion: This case report can be a useful to a general dentist who is trying to decide whether to perform the canine odontectomy or refer to a specialist surgeon due to the accidents and complications of this procedure.

SummaryBackground/Aim: Our aim is to describe multidisciplinary approach to primary tuberculous lymphadenitis with a case report.Case Report: A 6-year-old boy was referred to İstanbul University, Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery with the symptoms of painless extra-oral abscess and lymphadenopathy. The diagnosis of primary tuberculous lymphadenitis was proved by microbiological culture and ultrasound imaging.Conclusions: Combine tuberculosis treatment should be applied and long term follow up is necessary. Excisional biopsy for tissue diagnosis and bacterial examination with culture should be performed for an early diagnosis as a delay in treatment can lead to devastating consequences.

Fresh frozen allograft bone is routinely used in orthopedic surgery for the reconstruction of large bone defects, and its use in oral and maxillofacial surgery is increasing. The purpose of this case was to demonstrate the installation of dental implants and the use of fresh frozen bone for reconstruction of anterior maxilla in the same surgery. This case report presents the insertion of dental implants followed immediately by a placement of fresh frozen allograft in block and particle for a reconstruction of atrophic anterior maxillary in the same surgery. Ten months subsequent to this procedure, provisional fixed prosthesis was installed on the implants. Four months later (postoperative month 14), the final fixed prosthesis was installed and the clinical success was observed. The insertion of dental implants followed immediately by a placement of fresh frozen allograft is a safe and efficient process that results in the successful return of dental function and aesthetic rehabilitation for the patient.

Abstract Background: Most nail gun injuries occur at the extremities due to working accidents. Injuries to the brain or thorax are relatively rare, and cases with both injuries are even rarer. Initial evaluation, resuscitation and surgical planning can be challenging. Case presentation: Here, we present a case with nail gun injuries to the brain, lung, and heart by suicide attempt. The patient presented to the emergency department under shock. After resuscitation and surgical intervention, he was discharged without significant morbidity. Conclusions: Multiple nail gun injuries, especially those to vital organs such as the brain, lung, and heart, can be challenging to emergency physicians and surgeons. Imaging tools, treatment strategies, and possible complications are discussed in this article to provide optimized outcomes in such situations.

The problems of suction in newborns give rise to multiple consequences for both the mother and the newborn. The objective of this paper is to present a case of ankyloglossia (“tongue-tie”) and the suction problems that were treated by a multidisciplinary team. The subject is a 17-day-old male patient, with ankyloglossia and suction problems during breastfeeding (pain in the breastfeeding mother, poor weight gain, and long breastfeeds). The patient followed the circuit established in our centre between the services of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Breastfeeding and Speech Therapy and Orofacial Rehabilitation (CELERE). The evolution following the breastfeeding sessions, the myofunctional stimulation, and the lingual frenotomy was very favourable, thereby solving the suction problems that the newborn presented. All our patients receive breastfeeding sessions and myofunctional therapy as treatment. We know that a frenotomy is not always necessary and we believe that the stimulation of sucking before and after the surgical intervention is important in order to improve the final result.

AbstractIn Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, peripheral venous cannulation is done for administrating antibiotics, fluids and supplements. Here we introduce the fracture of i.v cannula during removal inside the blood vessel. Peripheral i.v cannulation was done in radial vein with a 20G cannula in a patient with trauma for receiving antibiotics and fluids.Under sterile conditions, the broken piece of the cannula was removed from a vein with a surgical incision and the skin was sutured.
