Observation: A 24-year-old man was referred to the dental emergency department for the management of a left submandibular cellulitis. The origin was a mandibular third molar. Drainage of the cellulitis and avulsion of the tooth were performed under general anesthesia. The follow-up was marked by a secondary infection of peri-zygomatic hematoma requiring a second drainage procedure. Discussion: The origin of the hematoma was a tear of the insertions of the mandibular elevators secondary to the trismus. The patient underwent two back-to-back general anesthesia procedures with tight trismus making induction and intubation difficult. Conclusion: A two-stage treatment with initial drainage and delayed avulsion after improvement of trismus is discussed.

Thirty-four patients aged from 3 to 17 years were operated on for noncomplicated unstable injuries of the spine. The operation was performed within the next few hours or days after trauma in 15 cases and significantly later (in 2 to 6 months) in 19 cases. In the first group the surgery included indirect posterior instrumental reduction and stabilization of the spine. In the second group a two-stage surgery was performed simultaneously. The first stage included anterior decompression and stabilization, and the second – posterior instrumentation. In both groups the posterior fusion with bone autograft was done. The post-op follow-up was 5 years. The correction of deformity, spinal stabilization and pain arrest were achieved in all cases. The surgical treatment of unstable noncomplicated spinal injuries in children must be conducted by emergency indications within the first hours and days after trauma.

Patients with rapidly progressing periodontitis may require extractions of teeth with poor periodontal prognosis. Although replacement with a dental implant is a popular choice, teeth autotransplantation remains a viable option. Herein, we report a case of a 23-year-old patient with rapidly progressing periodontitis resulting in severe clinical attachment loss on the left maxillary first molar, which required extraction. The tooth was replaced by tooth autotransplantation of the unerupted immature left mandibular third molar, which was delivered carefully without compromising the periodontal ligament. Cone beam computed tomography and three-dimensional printing of the third molar donor tooth significantly aided the tooth autotransplantation procedure. Recovery was uneventful. At the 1-year follow-up, healthy periodontal parameters and radiographic features were noted, and the autotransplanted tooth remained vital. This case showed that tooth autotransplantation is a viable option for replacing tooth loss due to rapidly progressing periodontitis.

A 3-year-old, intact female golden retriever was presented with a sudden onset of inspiratory obstructive dyspnea following general anesthesia to perform a mastectomy. The cuneiform process of the left arytenoid cartilage was found to be extremely mobile on laryngeal examination. Fracture of the cuneiform process of the left arytenoid cartilage was diagnosed. A combined cricoarytenoid and thyroarytenoid caudolateralization procedure was performed on the left side, and no further dyspnea was observed during a follow-up period of 7 months. Fracture of the cuneiform process of the arytenoid cartilage has not been previously reported in dogs. The condition may respond favorably to cricoarytenoid and thyroarytenoid caudolateralization surgery.

Introduction. Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a rare developmental, epithelial and benign cyst of the jaws of odontogenic origin with high recurrence rates. The third molar region, especially the angle of the mandible and the ascending ramus are involved far more frequently than the maxilla. The choice of treatment approach was based on the size of the cyst, recurrence status, and radiographic evidence of cortical perforation. Different surgical treatment options like marsupialization, decompression, enucleation, enucleation with Carnoy?s solution, peripheral ostectomy with or without Carnoy?s solution, and jaw resection have been discussed in the literature with variable rates of recurrence. Case report. We presented a 52-yearold male with orthokeratinized odontogenic keratocyst. Elliptical unilocular radiolucency located in the third molar region and the ascending ramus of the mandible, 40 ? 25 mm in diameter with radiographic evidence of cortical perforation at the anterior ramus border of the mandible 20 mm in diameter, was registrated on orthopantomographic radiography. Surgical treatment included enucleation of the cyst and peripheral ostectomy with the use of Carnoy?s solution and excision of the overlying attached mucosa. Postoperatively, no paresthesia in the inervation area of the inferior alveolaris nerve was registrated. Recurrences were not registrated within 5 years post-intervention. Coclusion. Treatment of odontogenic keratocyst with enucleation and peripheral ostectomy with the use of Carnoy?s solution and excision of the overlying attached mucosa had a very low rate of recurrence. Radical and more aggressive surgical treatments as jaw resection should be reserved for multiple recurrent cysts and when OKC is associated with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS). Following the treatment protocol in the management of OKC and systematic and long-term postsurgical follow-up are considered key elements for successful results.

The two-stage concept is a plan for the management of rhytidectomy patients. Preoperatively, all patients are told that they may need a minor secondary temporal tuck-up procedure 6 to 12 months after surgical treatment. Although only 20% of patients require this secondary surgical procedure, the possibility of its need encourages all patients to return for follow-up and removes a source of patient discontent. The indications for the secondary procedure are significant gravitational jowling and malar sagging developing 6 to 12 months after the primary surgical treatment. The technique is described in detail.

Objective: To compare the wound healing with triangular flap versus envelope flap techniques among patients undergoing surgical removal of the impacted mandibular third molar (IMTM). Study Design: An open label randomized controlled trial. Place and Duration of the Study: The Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Bakhtawar Amin Medical and Dental College, Multan from January 2021 to June 2021. Material and Methods: A total of 70 patients (35 in each group) of both genders aged 20 to 50 years requiring surgical removal of IMTM were included. Patients were asked to follow up on third and seventh day while observations regarding wound healing and pain were noted on 7th day among all cases completing the final follow up. Chi square was applied to compare data between both study groups taking p-value below 0.05 as significant. Results: In a total of 70 patients, there were 42 (60.0%) female and 28 (40.0%) female. Majority of the patients, 36 (51.4%) were above 30 years of age while mean age was noted to be 32.4+9.1 years. Sixty two patients completed the follow up so they were included in the final analysis for the assessment of wound healing and pain. Overall, wound healing was observed to be in 55/62 (88.7%) patients while wound healing was found to be 30/32 (93.8%) patients in envelope flap group in comparison to 25/30 (83.3%) in triangular flap group (p=0.1953). Overall, there was no statistically significant difference in between both study group with regards to evaluation of pain (p=0.3271) Conclusion: Both envelop flap and triangular flap techniques resulted in similar outcomes regarding wound healing among patients undergoing surgical removal of IMTM. Both flap techniques resulted in relatively similar degrees of post-surgery pain. Keywords: Third molar, pain, wound healing.

This paper describes the autologous transplantation of a mandibular right third molar to replace the residual roots of the second molar in the same quadrant, preserving function and aesthetics. A 5-year clinical and radiographic follow-up was undertaken. After transplantation, the donor tooth received endodontic treatment and placement of calcium hydroxide, which was periodically replaced every 3 months until the filling of the root canals, totalizing a period of 1-year, when apical closure was confirmed. The tooth was in perfect functional and aesthetic conditions 5 years after beginning of treatment. Autotransplantation is a feasible option for replacing missing teeth when a donor tooth is available. The autotransplantation of a right mandibular third molar with compromised function and aesthetics to replace the residual roots resulting from coronal destruction due to extensive carious lesion of the second molar in the same quadrant was a viable treatment alternative.
