Subcutaneous emphysema (SE) is a swelling which develops due to air entrapped underneath the subcutaneous tissue and facial planes causing distention of the overlying skin. SE can develop due to trauma, surgery, or infection. The diagnosis of SE is mostly based on clinical findings of crepitation upon palpation of the swelling. Once diagnosed, SE is usually managed by close observation and in some cases may require surgical decompression and antibiotic prophylaxis. We report a rare case of SE of the left malar which developed following closure of oroantral communication using the buccal fat pad.

A comunicação bucosinusal trata-se da comunicação não natural da cavidade bucal com o seio maxilar, estando muitas vezes relacionada a extração dos dentes superiores posteriores. A literatura apresenta diversas opções de tratamento para esses casos, entre eles o fechamento com o retalho pediculado com o corpo adiposo bucal. O objetivo deste trabalho foi relatar um caso de fístula bucosinusal em paciente diabético, discutindo alternativas cirúrgicas correlacionadas com problema sistêmico do paciente e características locais do defeito. Paciente do sexo masculino, 55 anos de idade, com histórico de dez dias de exodontia do elemento 27, com queixa de passagem de ar ao meio bucal através do sítio cirúrgico. Com base nos exames, o diagnóstico definitivo foi de comunicação bucosinusal, sendo estipulado o tratamento cirúrgico para o fechamento da comunicação através de duas camadas com o corpo adiposo da bochecha seguido do retalho vestibular. No acompanhamento de 8 meses e meio o paciente não apresenta queixas e pode-se observar o fechamento completo da comunicação bucosinusal. O retalho pediculado do corpo adiposo bucal seguido do retalho vestibular mostrou-se efetivo no tratamento da fístula bucosinusal em paciente diabético controlado.Descritores: Fístula Bucoantral; Cirurgia Bucal; Diabetes Mellitus.ReferênciasLozano-Carrascal N, Salomó-Coll O, Gehrke SA, Calvo-Guirado JL, Hernández-Alfaro F, Gargallo-Albiol J.

Pneumomediastinum, and subcutaneous emphysema usually result from spontaneous alveolar wall rupture and, far less commonly, from disruption of the upper airways or gastrointestinal tract. Subcutaneous neck emphysema, pneumomediastinum, and retropneumoperitoneum caused by nontraumatic perforations of the colon have been infrequently reported. The main symptoms of spontaneous subcutaneous emphysema are swelling and crepitus over the involved site; further clinical findings in case of subcutaneous cervical and mediastinal emphysema can be neck and chest pain and dyspnea. Radiological imaging plays an important role to achieve the correct diagnosis and extension of the disease. We present a quite rare case of spontaneous subcutaneous cervical emphysema, pneumomediastinum, and pneumoretroperitoneum due to perforation of an occult sigmoid diverticulum. Abdomen ultrasound, chest X-rays, and computer tomography (CT) were performed to evaluate the free gas extension and to identify potential sources of extravasating gas. Radiological diagnosis was confirmed by the subsequent surgical exploration.

Buccal Fat Pad is an encapsulated mass of adipose tissue located within the buccal facial spaces, between the buccinator and masseter muscles. Intraoral traumatic herniation of Buccal Fat Pad, often seen in young children, has been reported as a rare case. In this report, we present a case of traumatic Buccal Fat Pad herniation which at first was misdiagnosed as a malignant tumor.

Objective: to describe the successful treatment of a 5mm-sized granular cell ameloblastoma in the posterior region of the maxilla, discovered in a routine examination during the evaluation of an oroantral communication. Patients and methods: the case repot is presented based on a simple literature review of the last 10 years with the descriptors (Ameloblastoma; Maxilla; Surgery; Oral Diagnosis; Neoplasms) in Pubmed. Treatment consisting of fistulectomy and closure of the oroantral communication with the buccal fat pad and vestibular flap was associated with enucleation and curettage of the adjacent lesion under local anesthesia. Results: a satisfactory evolution was observed in the 1 year postoperative, with a good healing aspect and no signs of oroantral complications or recurrence of the lesion. Conclusion: for minor lesions, more conservative treatment proposals such as enucleation represent a viable alternative and, in addition, the use of adjuvant techniques such as curettage can offer benefits when the differential diagnosis includes more aggressive lesions or with a higher rate of recurrence.

Oro-antral communication (OAC) may develop as a complication of dental extraction, trauma, infection or neoplasm. Buccal fat pad (BFP) has been increasingly used for the closure of OAC. However, some complications can be seen for pedicled buccal fad pad flap (PBFPF), such as infection, limitation in mouth opening, hematoma, and swelling. Nevertheless, there are no previousreports of subcutaneous emphysema after PBFPF. In this paper; a complication developed in the early period after use of PBFPF for closure of OAF was illustrated with special emphasis showing the strength of BFP against tension forces.

RESUMOA Comunicação Buco-Sinusal (CBS) é um incidente cirúrgico que pode ocorrer durante a exodontia de dentes maxilares posteriores devido à intimidade de suas raízes com o assoalho do seio maxilar. As CBSs com diâmetro de até 2mm tendem a curar-se sem tratamento específico. Entretanto, as maiores que 3mm se não tratadas adequadamente, podem evoluir para complicações tais como sinusite maxilar recorrente, alteração do timbre nasal além da passagem de líquidos da cavidade bucal para a nasal através do óstio dentre outras. Este trabalho tem por objetivo discutir as técnicas mais utilizadas para o fechamento de CBS comparando-as com a técnica que utiliza o corpo adiposo bucal (Bola de Bichat), avaliando suas vantagens e desvantagens. As bases de dados digitais acessadas foram PubMed, MEDLINE, LILACS, Scopus compreendendo artigos em inglês entre o período de 1988 a 2016. Concluímos que o uso desta técnica apresenta excelentes resultados com poucas complicações, restituindo ao paciente uma condição de normalidade.Palavras-Chave: Fístula Bucoantral, Fístula Bucosinusal, Corpo adiposo bucal, bola de Bichat, Comunicação Bucosinusal. ABSTRACTOroantral Communication (OC) is a surgical incident that can occur during posterior maxillary teeth extraction due to the anatomical intimacy of its roots with the lining of the maxillary sinus. OC up to 2mm in diameter can cure without specific treatment. However, as larger than 3mm if left untreated, they may progress to complications such as recurrent maximal sinusitis, alteration of the nasal timbre beyond the passage of the oral cavity to a nasal through the ostium, among others. Several surgical techniques have been developed for the treatment of OC. This paper aims to review the literature on how to evaluate the most commonly used techniques for closing the OC, comparing them with a technique that uses the buccal adipose body (Bichat Ball), discussing its advantages and advantages. The digital databases accessed were PubMed, MEDLINE, LILACS and Scopus comprising articles in English from 1988 to 2016. This study allows us to conclude that the use of this technique presents excellent results with few complications, restoring the patient to a normal condition.Key-Words: Oroantral fistula, Oroantral communication, buccal fat pad, bichat fat pad
