Bone Transportation

We present a retrospective review of a new technique for the transportation of alveolar bone using a Hyrax device modified by the principal author (O.A.V.). There were seven patients (five males and two females), including five patients with cleft palate and lip diagnosis, one patient with a high-speed gunshot wound, and one patient with facial trauma sequel due to mandibular fracture. They were all treated with an alveolar bone transportation technique (ABT) through the use of the modified Hyrax device (VEGAX). Before surgery, distraction osteogenesis of the bifocal type was performed on four patients, and the trifocal type was performed on the other three patients. However, in one case, direct dental anchorage was not used, only orthodontic appliances. In all the cases, new bone formation and gingival tissue around the defect were obtained, posterior to the alveolar distraction process; no complications were observed in any patient. In one case, two teeth involved in the disk of the ABT were extracted, due to a previous condition of periodontal disease. The alveolar bone transport with the VEGAX device is an accessible technique for almost every patient with alveolar defects due to diverse causes. In all the presented cases, predictability and success were demonstrated.

Introducción: El tratamiento de la hendidura alveolar, del paciente fisurado, permite un adecuado crecimiento facial. Los injertos óseos han sido el tratamiento ideal. Sin embargo la técnica de distracción osteogénica mediante transporte óseo alveolar intraoral ha demostrado ser muy predecible. Objetivo: Describir los resultados del cierre de la Hendidura alveolar, con la técnica de transporte óseo alveolar intraoral bifocal y trifocal en pacientes labio fisurados. Diseño: Estudio retrospectivo de serie de casos. Materiales y métodos: Fueron tratados 4 pacientes con hendidura alveolar unilateral, manejados con la técnica de transporte óseo alveolar intraoral bifocal y trifocal en el año 2008 al 2009, con un seguimiento hasta el año 2014. Todos los pacientes fueron tratados con un aparato Hyrax® (Dentaurum, Alemania) modificado. Resultados: El promedio de distancia del transporte óseo requerido fue de 9,75mm (rango de 15 mm a 9 mm). Se colocaron 5 implantes dentales rehabilitados con prótesis dental fija. Conclusión: El estudio de los casos clínicos demuestra una predictibilidadelevada así como un rango de éxito alto, en los individuos tratados conesta técnica. Por tal motivo el transporte óseo alveolar intraoral es una alternativa eficaz para el tratamiento de hendiduras alveolares extensas.Introduction: The management of alveolar cleft patients, allows an adequate facial growth in cleft lip and palate patients. Bone grafts have been the gold standard treatment. However, the technique of osteogenic distraction by intraoral alveolar bone transportation has proven to be highly predictable. Objective: To describe the results of alveolar cleft management with the intraoral bifocal and trifocal alveolar bone transportation technique in cleft palate patients. Design of study: Retrospective case series study. Materials and methods: 4 patients with unilateral alveolar cleft were treated with the bifocal and trifocal intraoral alveolar bone transportation technique from 2008 to 2009. The cases were followed up until 2014. All patients were treated with a modified Hyrax® (Dentaurum, Germany) device. Results: The average distance of bone transportation required was 9.75mm (range from 15mm to 9mm). 5 dental implants with fixed dental prosthesis were placed. Conclusion: Clinical cases study demonstrated a high predictability, as well as a high success ratein individuals treated with this technique. Therefore, intraoral alveolar bone transportation is an effective alternative for the management of extensive alveolar clefts.

During hibernation the ground squirrel is immobile, body temperature reduced and metabolism depressed. Hibernation has been shown to affect dental tissues varying degrees, although not much work has been done in this area. In limited studies, it has been shown that hibernation results in (1) mobilization of bone minerals; (2) deficient dentinogenesis and degeneration of alveolar bone; (3) presence of calculus and tears in the cementum; and (4) aggrevation of caries and pulpal and apical tooth abscesses. The purpose of this investigation was to study the effects of hibernation on dental tissues employing scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and related x-ray analyses.

Diagnosis of non-specific aorto-arteritis (NSAA, Takaysu's arteritis) is typically based on clinical and investigational parameters. We report here about two patients with clinically suspected diagnosis of a Takayasu's arteritis already under anti-inflammatory therapy in whom percutaneous transluminal atherectomy of subclavian and axillary artery stenoses was performed to relief the patients from symptoms – intermittent dyspraxia of the arms – and to verify the clinical diagnosis by histology. In the first case aorto-arteritis could be histologically confirmed through the analysis of plaque material including media structures excised from the subclavian and axillary arteries using a new device for atherectomy. The biopsy showed diffuse inflammation and granulomatous lesions with giant cells typically for Takayasu's disease. In the second patient, biopsy showed no acute or chronic inflammatory signs but only atherosclerotic lesions. Percutaneous transluminal atherectomy is therefore not only an interventional but also a diagnostic tool and should be used in every case of interventional therapy of suspected aorto-arteritis to make the clinical diagnosis and as a major consequence the initiation of an aggressive anti-inflammatory medical therapy more reliable.
