SummaryHeparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a drug-induced, immunoglobulin-mediated thrombocytopenic disorder that is important for at least three reasons. First, it is a relatively common drug-induced immunohematologic adverse reaction. Second, it is frequently complicated by life- and limb-threatening thrombotic complications. And third, there remains uncertainty about the optimal treatment approach for these patients. Recently, there has emerged increasing consensus on such important issues as the frequency, pathogenesis, and diagnostic testing, which we will summarize here. Further, a greater appreciation of the activation of the coagulation pathways in this syndrome indicate a rationale to treatment approaches that emphasize thrombin inhibition (eg. danaparoid sodium; hirudin and its analogues).

Background: Odontogenic maxillary cysts and tumours originate from the tooth root and have traditionally been treated through an intraoral approach. Here, we report the efficacy and utility of endoscopic modified medial maxillectomy (EMMM) for the treatment of odontogenic maxillary cysts and a tumour. Methodology: We undertook EMMM under general anaesthesia in six patients: four had radicular cysts, one had a dentigerous cyst, and one had a keratocystic odontogenic tumour. Results: The cysts and tumours were completely excised and the inferior turbinate and nasolacrimal duct were preserved in all patients. There were no peri- or postoperative complications, and no incidences of recurrence. Conclusion: Endoscopic modified medial maxillectomy appears to be an effective and safe technique for treating odontogenic cysts and tumours.

ABSTRACTAmeloblastic fibroma (AF) is a rare odontogenic tumour of the jaw which usually occurs in the first 2 decades of life. The common clinical manifestation is a slow-growing swelling. We report a case of a 16-year-old male patient presenting with extensive AF of the mandible. He underwent a conservative enucleation. The tumour recurred 2 years after the initial surgery, requiring the second enucleation.The patient has continued to be followed closely and has been disease-free for 4 years. Recent evidence suggests that the recurrent rate of AF is relatively high, and malignant transformation of AF may occur after recurrences or multiple surgeries. A conservative treatment approach with close surveillance is recommended. Anatomical limitations should be taken into account, especially when enucleation of AF in the posterior portion of the jaw is performed. Current surgical pathologic issues of the tumour are also discussed. (Eur J Dent 2009;3:224-228)
