Electromyography is being employed in clinical practice, and allows the inclusion of quantitative data on the qualitative aspects of a diagnosis. These data are often of significant importance in the correct management of therapy and patient follow-up, particularly if the subject is at risk of developing a different and/or more serious disease.

The three lesions containing pus were drained from anterior and posterior brain region and the laboratory evaluation revealed the presence of Streptococcus viridians and Bacteroides. Postoperative period was uneventful with excellent recovery after 1 year of surgery. Final diagnosis was able to be done due to excellent image exams availability like computer tomography and magnetic resonance using diffusion and perfusion techniques. Discussion  The early detection of this pathology with the correct diagnosis essential to give the patient the best treatment including antimicrobial drugs and drainage is of extreme importance. ...

The etiology and management of herpes zoster infection associated with destructive sequelae are discussed. Discussion  Very few cases of osteonecrosis and spontaneous teeth exfoliation secondary to herpes zoster are found in the literature. The exact mechanism by which herpes zoster induces these destructive changes in the alveolar bone and teeth cannot be proposed. As Varicella zoster virus is an aneurotropic virus, the possible provoking factors may be the infection of the nerves innervating the periosteum or the chronic inflammatory changes in the form of adverse periodontal disease and delayed healing of the extrac...

Although various theories such as trauma and infection have been proposed, it is difficult to establish the pathogenesis of osteoma. Osteomas may be detected with routine radiographic examination or the tumors may enlarge and cause symptoms. Osteomas most frequently occur in the frontal and ethmoid sinuses, and are rare in the maxillary sinus. Case report  In the present study, we report a case of an 18-year-old woman with a maxillary sinus osteoma. Radiographically, the tumor was characterized as a radiopaque, well-delimited lesion in the periapical region of teeth 27 and 28 that had positive sensitivity test. After computed tomographic scanning and complete removal of the tumor, the h...

Dental implants into the maxillary sinus usually act as foreign bodies and should be removed, to avoid the development of sinus complications. Removal of dental implants from the maxillary sinus can be performed either with functional endoscopic sinus surgery, or with intraoral operation through the anterior maxillary wall especially in fresh cases and in the presence of oroantral communication.

She had a previous diagnosis of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia, along with café-au-lait spots and endocrine disorders, thus characterizing McCune–Albright syndrome. Histopathological examination of a biopsy specimen revealed osteosarcoma of the mandible. The patient underwent chemotherapy and a surgical procedure for lesion resection. One year has now passed since the patient's operation, and the disease is under control.

From a point of costs and to minimize bypass comorbidity, surgeons should be more reluctant in executing augmentation procedures to restore the resorbed edentulous mandible as it is dated in literature that also in mandibles with a residual height of 10 mm or less, solely placing implants, thus without an augmentation procedure in advance, is a reliable treatment option.

A tumour of 5-cm diameter was revealed within the right cranial middle fossa, extending to the lateral wall of the cavernous sinus, the infratemporal fossa and the posterior wall of the maxillary sinus. A combined craniofacial approach was undertaken. A right extended subtemporal craniotomy was performed. The intracranial component of the tumour, originating from the third division of the trigeminal nerve and compressing the cavernous sinus, was removed in total. We proceeded with a Weber–Ferguson approach through which the extracranial component of the tumour was also totally resected. The postoperative computed tomography of the he...

Prevention is focused on adequate osteotomy design, eliminating sharp angle where abnormal stress occurs on bony segments, completion of adequate cuts into the retrolingular depression and through the inferior border, and careful separation of the segments. The SSO is an extremely technical and sensitive procedure, and careful attention will probably prevent most unfavorable splits. If a fracture occurs, the fractured segments should be incorporated into the fixation scheme if possible. The occurrence of bad splits cannot always be avoided. When adequately treated the chances of functional success are good. Content Type Journal ArticlePages 1-9D...

The bone-anchored suture permits the restoration of a more physiologic TMJ anatomy. The treatment of TMJ ankylosis should be comprehensive; physiotherapy plays an important role in the rehabilitation period to restore the normal function.

The presenting clinical features with radiologic features are reviewed. Also discussed is an approach to radiological interpretation. To the best of our knowledge, this is only the seventeenth case to be reported in literature. Discussion  Cementoblastoma is a benign true neoplasm which forms a mass of cementum or cementum-like tissue on the root surface of the tooth. As a maxillofacial practitioner, it is essential to consider cementoblastoma as one of the differential diagnosis, although rare, while considering maxillary swellings. The treatment remains fairly conservative, with an excellent prognosis. Content Type Journal ArticlePages 1-3DOI 10.1007/s10006-011-0267-8Authors R. S...

Histopathological examination confirmed the suspected metastasis of prostate carcinoma and local radiation therapy was performed. Discussion  TMD represent a diagnostic challenge and sometimes an interdisciplinary approach is required to prevent a delay of the correct treatment.

Examination of the oral cavity revealed a hemorrhagic soft mass of the mandibular region. The patient was treated with surgery. Histologic examination of the resected specimen showed proliferation of fascicular spindle cells and a dense, chronic inflammatory cell infiltrate consisting of neutrophils, eosinophils, and lymphocytes. Immunohistochemically, the spindle cells expressed vimentin, α smooth muscle actin, and CD68, indicating a diagnosis of IPT. Discussion  IPT is an unusual benign pathology in the oral and maxillofacial area. Because of its aggressive clinical and radiological features, it can be mistaken for a malignancy.

The authors make an association between eosinophilic ulcer and atopic dermatitis, two diseases that appear to have a similar, though not fully defined, etiology. The psychological stress factor was considered a predisponent factor for eosinophilic ulcer etiology and its interference in the etiology and evolution of this disease should be considered.

In particular, amaurosis is an extremely rare event and usually heralds a more sinister pathology such as stroke.

Discussion  Seven months after surgery, the patient was asymptomatic, with stable occlusion and class I, without signs of infection or rejection, and bone repair with rigidity compatible to an immature bone structure was observed. Reconstruction of large mandibular bone defect with a combination of rhBMP-2 and HA/TCP achieving a satisfactory result with less invasive and minimum morbidity has been demonstrated.

Clinical report  An overnight sleep study demonstrated that the patient had severe obstructive sleep apnea with an apnea–hypopnea index of 95/h. The lowest oxygen saturation was only 34%. The distraction osteogenesis technique was used to lengthen her mandible for the reconstruction of her upper airway. Result and Discussion  Postoperative panorex showed that the bilateral body of her mandible had been distracted about 16 mm singulorumly in the end of our distraction. Lateral radiograph revealed that the diameter of oral pharynx widen nearly 5 mm. The patient recovered after the upper airway reconstruction. ...

A wide range of treatment consisting of drugs, surgical therapy, and physiotherapy have been attempted till date, with varying degrees of benefit, but none of them have proved to be a cure for this disease. This field remains open for clinical trials and research. This paper aims to give an overview on the role of areca nut in the pathogenesis and malignant potential of oral submucous fibrosis.

The disease spreads into the surrounding tissues by direct infiltration whereas spread by hematogenous dissemination is relatively unusual, and most commonly involves the lung, bone, and liver. The involvement of oral and maxillofacial region is extremely rare in gynecological cancer. Case report  In this paper, we present an unusual case of a metastatic squamous cell carcinoma originating in the infratemporal fossa of a 37-year-old woman who had underwent a subtotal hysterectomy, for squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix, 22 months earlier. A whole-body CT scan revealed a mass of enlarged lymph nodes in the mediastinum as well. The patient, who ha...

When occurring during early childhood, it can result in severe functional disability and facial deformity. Septic arthritis is an uncommon disease associated with systemic and local factors being most commonly caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and Haemophilus influenzae. This paper presents two unusual cases of TMJ ankylosis following neonatal infections treated surgically and does a literature review about the topic.

A computed tomography should be made in every case of intraosseous lesion in order to establish the intraosseous extent of the tumor, cortical perforation, and soft tissue involvement for precise guidance for the surgical planning. It is recommended that the surgeon considers excision by an intraoral, lingual approach when indicated, and in two stages, when an extremely thin mandibular base is present.
