CASE REPORT: A 70-year-old female patient consulted for chronic rhino-sinusitis resistant to medical treatment. Computed tomography scan revealed a hyperdense mass filling the left maxillary antrum, with erosion of sinus walls. The ethmoidal and right frontal sinuses were involved. The histological and mycological examination of the surgical resection confirmed the diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis. The patient was given voriconazole as first line treatment. The outcome was good at 18 months. DISCUSSION: Invasive aspergillosis of the maxillary sinus is a rare disease, usually observed in immunodepressed patients. It is very rarely observed in immunocompetent patients. P...

There are several therapeutic alternatives. They can be classified in three groups: invasive, non-invasive, and conservative techniques. Nevertheless, osteochondroma is a benign tumor and its management should be as little invasive as possible.

Complete response (clinical, biological and radiological) was achieved with combined chemotherapy according to APE regimen associating actinomycin, cisplatin and etoposid. The patient was free of disease 4 years after therapy completion. DISCUSSION: Primary gingival mandibular choriocarcinoma is very rare. Clinical presentation is atypical; diagnosis is based on histopathological examination and positivity for HCG. Our case report showed high chemo-sensitivity and comparable outcome to the other localizations.

The aims of our study are to analyze the effects of orthognathic surgery on self-esteem, body image, psychological morbidity, and quality of life. We also want to assess the combined effects of these factors on postoperative dissatisfaction, and to study the interest of personality assessment (especially neuroticism) as a predictive factor of dissatisfaction.

This concept remains controversial since it is difficult to prove the oral origin of germs responsible for an extra-oral infection. Experiments on animal models and clinical studies suggested several physiopathological mechanisms: bacteremia, toxinic and immunological mechanisms. Various operations induce the passage of bacterial flora (transcytosis) and its toxins into the bloodstream: oral care, chewing, or tooth brushing. Bacteremia is worsened by poor oral hygiene or an infection. The germs are usually destroyed by the host's reticuloendothelial system in a few minutes, but the presence of a valvular disease or a weak...

It has a serious impact on oral function and its psychological impact on the patient is great. To prevent this complication, several studies have been conducted to identify the high-risk radiological signs associated with intimate anatomic relationships between third molar and infra-alveolar nerve and thereby establish a unified process of radiological exploration. In this paper, the authors present a review of the literature of the recent studies involving radiological exploration of the relation of the third molar with the mandibular canal.

The histological examination after surgical exeresis confirmed the diagnosis. The trichilemmal cysts featured intra-cystic ossification. The wide dimension of the lesions dimension imposed an extensive surgical scalp exeresis. Reconstruction was performed with a flap after skin expansion. DISCUSSION: The trichilemmal cyst is a benign tumor of skin appendages with a slow outcome. Multiple locations may require an extensive surgical scalp exeresis and lead to a problematic reconstruction. Hereditary cases require familial follow-up to prevent such problems.

Our experience is essentially based on the Lomas(®) and Orthocorrect(®) devices manufactured by Mondeal(®) (Germany) and on screwed anchorage devices manufactured by Stryker(®) (USA). DISCUSSION: These screwed anchorage systems allow for previously impossible treatments, especially for orthodontics applied to adults and for preprosthetic orthodontics. But these screws can induce apical migration of teeth; so it may be necessary to provide several anchorage sites. Complications are rare and usually present as root perforation.

The risk of presenting a transient bacteremia is related to oral cavity bacterial load and to the severity of inflammation in the oral cavity. Although bacteremia is transient, in patients with immunodeficiency or comorbidity, this bacteremia may cause extra-oral infections. The bacteremia rate and the identified bacteria vary from one study to the next, depending on the method used to isolate and identify bacteria.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: After sagittal split ramus osteotomy, we verify that a stable occlusion has been achieved without straining. In case of resistance, a 90°angled periosteal rugine is introduced below the periosteum, against the medial cortex. It is used to detach the last fibers of the medial pterygoid muscle under visual control, and it is carefully moved to the lingula to detach the anterior sphenomandibular ligament insertion. DISCUSSION: In case of a very short ramus, there is hypoplasia of soft tissues, especially the pterygomasseteric sling, and the stylomandibular ligaments are short. This is why it seems necessary to release the sphenomandibular ligament in all forms of ramus lengthening. PMID: 21920568 [P...

It opened a new alternative approach for tooth regeneration. Even if animal experiments have demonstrated that it was possible to obtain a biological tooth from stem cells, two major issues remain to be discussed. Is it possible to use induced pluripotent stem cells instead of embryonic stem cells, which raise an ethical problem? Is it possible to reproduce a dental crown with an adapted shape and colour?

It provides osteoinductive factors, osteogenic cells, and appropriate osteoconductive scaffold. Donor site morbidity is the main limitation of autograft. Donor disease transmission limits the use of allograft. Synthetic bone substitutes still lack osteoinductive or osteogenic properties. Composite bone substitutes combining synthetic scaffold and biochemical substances initiating proliferation and cell differentiation, and possibly osteogenesis. Bone substitutes and grafts intended for clinical use are listed.

PATIENTS AND METHOD: The computed tomography of 14 mandibles was performed (vestibulo-lingual cross-section) and four landmarks were defined behind the mental foramen. At each landmark, we measured the distance between the alveolar canal and the two cortical layers in the vestibulo-lingual plane, and the distance between the alveolar canal and the alveolar crest, and the inferior border of the mandible in the vertical plane. RESULTS: In the vestibulo-lingual plane, the mandibular nerve is located close to the vestibular cortical layer, then to the lingual cortical before it exits. In the crestal plane, it is located at the superior third of the inferior border of the mandible. DISCUSSION: In spite of anat...

It progressively develops during childhood. It leads to a complete loss of subcutaneous fat in the face, neck, trunk and upper limbs. The disease is more common in female than male patients and causes facial dysmorphy. Free fat transplantation seems to be an appropriate technique to treat facial abnormalities encountered in this syndrome.

CASE REPORT: A 48-year-old male patient, without prior medical history, was referred to us for a painless gingival lesion of the right maxilla, extending from tooth 14 to 17, having appeared a few months before. The clinical examination was otherwise normal. Biopsy proved the diagnosis of HCCC. The CT scan revealed extension in maxillary sinus with bone osteolysis, and suspicion of cervical lymph nodes metastasis. The treatment was subtotal maxillectomy, cervical lymph node dissection, and postoperative radiotherapy because of incomplete bony resection. DISCUSSION: HCCC localization in the maxilla is extremely rare. This tumor may recur. The risk of metastasis is low; it concerns mainly lymph nodes. There is no treatment protocol consensus beca...

CASE REPORT: A 7-year-old boy presented with a right mandibular and facial swelling. The panoramic radiograph and CT scan revealed a voluminous unilocular radiolucent lesion (10cm) with an impacted tooth that involved the ramus area and the angle of the right mandible. Enucleation and curettage was performed with a good outcome. There was no recurrence at ten months.

It is simple and leaves no raw bone surface exposed and no additional scar. The authors think it can be used in all type IV fistulae less than 1cm wide. Several other surgical techniques have been described to close palatal fistulae: local turnover flaps, pedicled flaps from adjacent oral tissue, tongue flaps, tissue expansion, and even free flaps. Obturator prostheses have also been used. The technique we report, even if more aggressive, seems to be more reliable with fewer relapse and sequelae.

Adherence and satisfaction were satisfactory. AHI results were also good but seemed low compared to other studies. This was due to more stringent criteria for cure, more in line with the overall management. No criterion for inclusion was predictive of good tolerance and no score predictive of success could be established. However, the improvement in AHI was significantly correlated to the patient's BMI and its diagnostic AHI.

They have become wonderful realities in our hospitals. Face transplantation is one of the great scientific adventures of the 21(th) century that history will remember. Physicians dreamed to give a new face to disfigured patients. Allografts of the face have become a reality thanks to breakthroughs in anatomy and plastic surgery, HLA system research, microsurgery, neurology, and immunosuppressive molecules.

CASE: A 35-year-old patient consulted for facial dysmorphia first observed 2years before. This swelling was associated to nodular panniculitis lesions and xerostomia. The facial asymmetry was due to maxillary gingival and alveolar swelling. It was associated with scarring in the legs and a purple nodular facial lesion. Lip and jaw biopsies revealed epithelioid and giant cell granulomas without caseous necrosis. The panoramic dental X-ray showed diffuse horizontal alveolar ridge lysis and CT scan revealed an osteolytic lesion of the right maxilla associated to a bone-condensing lesion of the left hemi-mandible.

Keratocysts are benign odontogenic epithelial tumors. The main aspects of this lesion are described (definition, epidemiology, clinic, radiology, histology, treatment, and prognosis). In small intra-osseous tumors, surgical procedure must be as conservative as possible, most often enucleation. In large tumors with destruction of the cortical bone, or with destruction of coronoid process or notch, extensive resection can be indicated, with sometimes a transfacial approach for an accurate control, especially in soft tissues.

CASE REPORT: A 52-year-old woman consulted for chronic maxillary sinusitis and an oral vestibular fistula. The CT-scan suggested a mucocele with reactive bone formation. Macroscopically, a pediculated bone tumour was found next to a mucocele, and to a cyst probably of dental origin. The anatomopathological examination led to a diagnosis of cancellous osteoma. DISCUSSION: Several hypotheses have been made on the etiology of sinus osteomas. When identified, screening for Gardner's syndrome should be implemented because of the associated risk for colic malignancy.

Only the coronal approach exposes the medial wall completely. The transcaruncular approach enables a clear and wide view of the medial wall without any visible scar compared to usual transcutaneous techniques. This approach can be combined with a transconjunctival approach, thus providing an extended exposure of the whole medial wall and the orbital floor.

Chandler's classification gives the opportunity to adapt management to the infection's gravity. Ethmoiditis may be complicated by periorbital abscesses found usually in the superointernal quadrant. Medical imaging and surgical treatment confirmed a superolateral periorbital abscess and a frontal mucocele. This case illustrates the possibility of communication between frontal sinus and orbital cavity. During frontal sinus infection, pre-existing mucocele may become super-infected and induce a periorbital abscess.

The first case, probably of congenital origin, was oriented frontally. The second case, oriented in the sagittal plane, was probably post-traumatic. Functional treatment was used for both patients. DISCUSSION: Bifid condyles is asymptomatic in most cases. Their most frequent clinical consequence is TMJ pain. Surgical treatment is rarely indicated. Determining the congenital or post-traumatic origin of bifid condyles is often difficult. The orientation of the supernumerary condyle head could help for the etiological diagnosis.

It is diagnosed after excluding traumatic, vascular, or inflammatory etiologies. Erythroplakia is rare in the upper aerodigestive tract. It affects middle-aged adults. The main predisposing factors are those of in situ carcinoma. Lesions are mainly located on lips or mucosa. Erythroleukoplakia may also occur. Ninety-one percent of erythroplakia are severe dysplasia, in situ carcinoma, or invasive carcinoma. Excision and histopathological examination are mandatory.

The term to use is "potentially malignant disorders". Leukoplakia is the most common of these disorders, while erythroplakia is rather rare. The diagnosis is still made by excluding other documented white or red lesions. Despite progress in molecular biology, no marker allows predicting malignant transformation.

The infestation is usually observed in the summer. Symptoms vary according to UADT localization. The diagnosis should be made rapidly to prevent complications. Whatever the localization, removing the parasite is difficult. In laryngeal localizations induction general anesthesia is recommended, without intubation. Evolution after treatment is rapidly favorable, with complete disappearance of symptoms.

OBSERVATION: A 55-year-old female patient consulted for swelling in the right cheek. Surgical excision was incomplete because of the subtemporal tumor localization. Histological assessment proved a GCT. Forty-five grays postoperative external radiotherapy was applied to the surgical site. The patient had local control at the 12-month follow-up. DISCUSSION: GCTs are seldom observed in the facial skeleton (2%). The recommended treatment is surgery. Radiotherapy can be indicated in case of incomplete or impossible surgical excision, or when surgery would be responsible for a major functional deficit.

Immunocompromised patients or individuals with an imbalance of their oral microflora can develop yeast infections from this reservoir. However, saliva protects oral mucosa against candidosis; in turn, dry mouth is associated with increased yeast counts and candidosis risk. In vivo and in vitro studies have shown Candida incorporation into biofilms covering different biomaterials such as dentures: these biofilms may be an increased risk factor for invasive candidosis when the host immune system is compromised.

In fact, those lesions could actually be of odontogenic origin.
