Background: Although the removal of impacted mandibular third molars is a common minor oral surgical procedure, the extraction of these teeth can present with certain post–operative complications. Koerner KR proposed a Difficulty Index Scale for removal of these teeth on the basis of local anatomy and radiographs, which were helpful in predicting the difficulty that would be encountered intra-operatively, as well as the post-operative complications. Objective: To study the different post-operative complications in the removal of impacted mandibular third molars calculating their difficulty index value. Method: A total of 119 patients, 79 females and 40 males who underwent extraction of their impacted third molars were selected over a one year period. Data were collected prospectively, according to the angulation, depth and position of the impacted mandibular third molars and their difficulty index calculated. This was further correlated with the postoperative complications encountered. Results: Mesio-angular impaction (43.7%), with level A (66.4%) and Class I (70.6%) impaction were the major type of impaction seen. The difficulty index showed that majority were in the moderately difficult category (51.2%), with swelling and trismus seen to increase as the difficulty index value increased. Females were affected more than males, with swelling (Odds ratio 2.206) and trismus (Odds ratio 2.570) seen to be significantly more. Conclusion: Surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molars causes post-operative complications and special care is required in their removal, especially in females. The Difficulty Index, as described by Koerner KR can be used as a tool for predicting the frequency of the post-operative complications, especially swelling and trismus.

The surgical removal of third molar is the commonly performed procedure in oral and surgery. It takes several days to recover from the complications following removal of the third molar. The common postoperative complications are pain, swelling, , alveolar after third molar removal The aim of this systematic review was to thoroughly the existing literature to evaluate the effect of socket versus extra socket application of acid gel in management of postoperative complications after third molar removal. The objective of this systematic review is to assess the efficacy of socket versus extra socket application of acid gel compared to placebo or no treatment in management of post-operative complications after removal of third molar.The data bases of PubMed, and google scholar were searched for the related topics along with a complimentary manual search of all oral surgery journals till October 2018.The data collection form was based on analysis of included studies for their quality assessment and publication bias.The primary outcome measure was post-operative pain and the secondary outcome measures were post-operative swelling & post-operative mouth opening. Three articles were selected based on the inclusion criteria. The included studies were randomized controlled trials. The clinical evidence from this review shows acid gel application is found to be beneficial in reducing pain, swelling & after surgical removal of third molar. After contemplating its pivotal role in various anti- inflammatory diseases, it is prudent to consider as an alternative in managing postoperative of third molar removal.

Introduction: Impacted third molars (ITMs) surgery, is one of the most common methods in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgical operations. Administration of corticosteroid such as dexamethasone diminishes the postoperative sequelae. The study aimed to compare the impact of dexamethasone administration on pre-operative and post-operative complications in third molar surgery. Methods: We collected all randomized controlled trial data on the influences of pre-operative and postoperative dexamethasone administration between 2006-2019 on third molar surgery sequelae by searching the keywords: dexamethasone, third molar surgery, wisdom teeth, corticosteroids, oral surgery, maxillofacial surgery, preoperative, postoperative, pain, swelling, and trismus in international databases such as: Web of Science (ISI), PubMed, Scopus, Embase and Cochrane Library. Results: Twenty-three articles were included in this narrative review. Among them, 22 studies used dexamethasone in particular and 1 study used dexamethasone with amoxicillin. Twenty studies evaluated the prescription of dexamethasone in pre-operative and post-operative routes on pain, trismus and edema following third molars operation. Five studies administered dexamethasone postoperatively and 15 studies administered the drug preoperatively. Two studies evaluated the preoperative and postoperative administration method. Fourteen studies used a 4 mg dexamethasone dose and drug administration was variable. The treatment period in postoperative studies varied between 1 to 7 days. Conclusion: Dexamethasone appears to be a promising agent in in reduction of post-operative complications following third molar surgery. As a potent anti-inflammatory agent, it has an effective role in pain, trismus and edema reduction distinguished from the routes of administration, dosage and timing, pre or postoperative prescription.

Introduction: Surgical removal is the treatment of choice for pterygium; however, prevention of recurrence is a challenge. Several techniques have been tried to reduce the fibro-vascular activity aiming to reduce rate of recurrence such as B-irradiation, conjunctival and limbal auto-grafting, anti-mitotic drugs, and amniotic membrane transplantation. This study reports the magnitude of the disease in a hilly region of western Nepal and outcome of excision and conjunctival autografting for pterygium surgery. Methods: A prospective study was done from 1st July 2015 to 31st December 2016 in which all patients with primary pterygium presented to Palpa Lions Lacoul Eye Hospital from 1st July 2015 to 30th June 2016 were treated and followed up for next six months. Patients were treated medically or surgically as indicated. Data on age, sex, visual acuity, extent of disease, treatment modality, complications, and outcome were collected and analyzed by descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, t-test, and Anova tests. P value less than 0.05 was considered significant. Results: There were 18,960 patients in total attending hospital for various conditions among which 290 (1.5%) had pterygium. There were 186 (64.1%) female and 104 (35.9%) male and this difference was significant (p<0.001). The mean age was 47.42 yrs (SD=14.23) with age ranging from 20 to 80 years. Right eye was affected more (43.1%) than left eye (33.1%); remaining 23.8% had bilateral disease. Grade-1 disease occurred in younger age compared to Grade-2 and Grade-3 disease. All grade-1 patients were managed medically; grade-2 and grade-3 patients were equally likely to be managed medically or surgically. There were no major intra or post-operative complications. Minor post-operative complications noted were subconjunctival hemorrhage, corneal scarring, suture gaping, and conjunctival cyst among others. Conclusion: Despite much advanced techniques in pterygium surgery, pterygium excision combined with conjunctival autograft is found to be a safe and effective method for treating pterygium in developing world.

SummaryDuring a triple pelvic osteotomy, rotation of the free acetabular segment causes the pubic remnant on the acetabulum to rotate into the pelvic canal. The resulting narrowing may cause complications by impingement on the organs within the pelvic canal. Triple pelvic osteotomies were performed on ten cadaver pelves with pubic remnants equal to 0, 25, and 50% of the hemi-pubic length and angles of acetabular rotation of 20, 30, and 40 degrees. All combinations of pubic remnant lengths and angles of acetabular rotation caused a significant reduction in pelvic canal-width and cross-sectional area, when compared to the inact pelvis. Zero, 25, and 50% pubic remnants result in 15, 35, and 50% reductions in pelvic canal width respectively. Overrotation of the acetabulum should be avoided and the pubic remnant on the acetabular segment should be minimized to reduce postoperative complications due to pelvic canal narrowing.When performing triple pelvic osteotomies, the length of the pubic remnant on the acetabular segment and the angle of acetabular rotation both significantly narrow the pelvic canal. To reduce post-operative complications, due to narrowing of the pelvic canal, overrotation of the acetabulum should be avoided and the length of the pubic remnant should be minimized.
