Tibial Bone

Autogenous bone grafts are the gold standard for reconstruction of atrophic jaws, pseudoarthroses, alveolar clefts, orthognathic surgery, mandibular discontinuity, and augmentation of sinus maxillary. Bone graft can be harvested from iliac bone, calvarium, tibial bone, rib, and intraoral bone. Proximal tibia is a common donor site with few reported problems compared with other sites. The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of proximal tibia as a donor area for maxillofacial reconstructions, focusing on quantifying the volume of cancellous graft harvested by a lateral approach and to assess the complications of this technique. In a retrospective study, we collected data from 31 patients, 18 women and 13 men (mean age: 36 years, range: 19–64), who were referred to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the Servidores do Estado Federal Hospital. Patients were treated for sequelae of orthognathic surgery, jaw fracture, nonunion, malunion, pathology, and augmentation of bone volume to oral implant. The technique of choice was lateral access of proximal tibia metaphysis for graft removal from Gerdy tubercle under general anesthesia. The mean volume of bone harvested was 13.0 ± 3.7 mL (ranged: 8–23 mL). Only five patients (16%) had minor complications, which included superficial infection, pain, suture dehiscence, and unwanted scar. However, none of these complications decreases the result and resolved completely. We conclude that proximal tibia metaphysis for harvesting cancellous bone graft provides sufficient volume for procedures in oral and maxillofacial surgery with minimal postoperative morbidity.

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical presentation of mandibular impacted teeth and associated pathologies in Unaizah, Al Qaseem; Saudi Arabia. Study Design: Descriptive cross sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (OMFS), King Saud Hospital Unaizah Saudi Arabia from March 2019 and December 2020. Methodology: The record of patients attending dental section was reviewed from hospital record. Demographic data of patients were recorded through medical record Number by Medicapluse software. Orthopantamograms (OPGs) xrays were reviewed by maxillofacial surgeons on Dell LCD using software IMPEX 6.3.1.2794 enterprise unlimited Agfa. The variables like presence of impacted tooth, type of angulations, reason for extraction, caries on distal surface of 2nd molar tooth, and occlusal or mesial surface of 3rd molar were examined on OPGs. Data was analyzed using SPSS version-21. Results: Males and females were 49% and 51% respectively. The most common type of impaction was vertical 45%, followed by horizontal 27% and mesio angular 22%. The impacted tooth on right side was observed as 51% and on left side as 49%. The relationship of gender with type of impaction was statistically insignificant (p value-0.157). The relationship was reasons and type of impaction was statistically insignificant (p value-0.317) Conclusion: the both genders were almost equally affected. Vertical Impactions were more frequent and the pericoronitis was common reason for extraction of mandibular third molar. The relationship of gender and type of impaction was not significantly associated with type of impaction.

Purpose: The aim was to understand dental students’ experiences with oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS) teaching, their confidence levels in performing routine dento-alveolar operations, and the relationship between the students’ confidence level and the number of teeth extracted during the clinical practice. Methods: The survey questionnaire was distributed to 32 students at Aljouf University College of Dentistry, Saudi Arabia during their fourth and fifth year in 2015. Respondents were asked to rate 19 items, which represent a student’s confidence in performing routine surgical interventions, using a four-point Likert scale (1=very little confidence, 4=very confident). A multivariate regression was computed between average confidence and the variables: weekly hours devoted to studying oral and maxillofacial surgery, college grade point average, and the total number of teeth extracted. Results: The response rate was 100%. Students revealed the highest level of confidence in giving local anesthesia (96.9%), understanding extraction indications (93.8%), and performing simple extractions (90.6%). Less confidence was shown with handling difficult extractions (50.0%), extracting molars with separation (50.0%) or extracting third molars (56.3%). The average confidence in performing surgical procedures was 2.88 (SD=0.55), ranging from 1.79 to 3.89. A given student’s confidence increased with an increase in the total number of teeth extracted (P=0.003). Conclusion: It reveals a significant impact of undergraduate clinical training on students’ confidence in performing oral and maxillofacial surgery clinical procedures: The more clinical experience the students had, the more confidence they reported.

Pendahuluan: Ameloblastoma adalah tumor invasif lokal dengan insidensi kekambuhan yang tinggi jika tidak dieksisi sepenuhnya. Mandibulektomi segmental sebagai pilihan tatalaksana yang dapat menyebabkan deformitas dan asimetri pada wajah, serta masalah pengunyahan. Pemulihan defek setelah reseksi mandibula menimbulkan masalah yang cukup berat. Tujuan laporan kasus ini untuk melaporkan hasil rekontruksi menggunakan cangkok tulang non-vaskularisasi mandibulektomi segmental pada pasien dengan ameloblastoma mandibula. Laporan kasus: Pria berusia 33 tahun datang ke Poliklinik Rawat Jalan Bagian Bedah Mulut dan Maksilofasial RS Persahabatan dengan keluhan utama pembengkakan mandibula yang perlahan bertambah dan tidak nyeri sejak enam tahun lalu. Pemeriksaan ekstra oral tampak asimetri wajah, bukaan mulut tidak ada limitasi, tidak teraba pembesaran kelenjar getah bening regio leher. Pemeriksaan intraoral didapatkan adanya benjolan regio mandibula kiri dengan batas tegas, konsistensi padat, permukaan tampak trauma oklusi gigi antagonis, immobile, dan terdapat nyeri tekan. Gambaran radiologis menunjukan lesi radiolusen multilokuler menyerupai honeycomb pada corpus mandibula kiri meluas ke regio ramus mandibula kiri. Pemeriksaan biopsi menunjukkan hasil ameloblastoma tipe folikuler pada mandibula kiri dan dilakukan mandibulektomi segmental dengan rekonstruksi cangkok tulang fibula non-vaskularisasi. Sembilan bulan setelah operasi, cangkok tulang non-vaskularisasi tidak menunjukkan komplikasi intraoral dengan bekas luka submandibular ekstraoral baik. Simpulan: Cangkok tulang fibula non-vaskular dapat dipertimbangkan sebagai salah satu pilihan untuk rekonstruksi setelah mandibulektomi segmental pada pasien ameloblastoma.Kata kunci: Mandibulektomi segmental, cangkok fibula non-vaskularisasi, ameloblastoma folikuler. ABSTRACTIntroduction: Ameloblastoma is a locally invasive tumour with a high incidence of recurrence if not completely excised. Segmental mandibulectomy as a treatment option that can cause facial deformities and asymmetry and mastication problem. Recovery of the defect after mandibular resection presents a severe problem. This case report was aimed to report the results of reconstruction using a segmental non-vascularised mandibulectomy bone graft in a patient with mandibular ameloblastoma. Case report: A 33-year-old male came to the Outpatient Polyclinic of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Division of Persahabatan General Hospital with the chief complaint of mandibular inflammation, which was slowly increasing yet painless since six years prior. Extraoral examination showed facial asymmetry, no limitation in mouth opening, no palpable enlargement of lymph nodes in the neck region. Intraoral examination revealed a lump in the left mandibular region with firm borders, solid consistency. The surface appears to be traumatic occlusion of the antagonist tooth, immobile, and tenderness was found. Radiological features showed a multilocular, honeycomb-like radiolucent lesion on the left mandibular body extending into the left mandibular ramus region. A biopsy showed follicular ameloblastoma in the left mandible, and a segmental mandibulectomy was performed with non-vascular fibular bone graft reconstruction. Nine months after surgery, non-vascular bone grafts showed no intraoral complications with either extraoral submandibular scar. Conclusion: Non-vascular fibular bone graft can be considered an option for reconstruction after segmental mandibulectomy in ameloblastoma patients. Keywords: Segmental mandibulectomy, non-vascularised fibula graft, follicular ameloblastoma.
