ABSTRACT

En la actualidad es cada vez más frecuente la consulta de pacientes que siendo sometidos en edades tempranas a cirugías de extirpación tumoral y posterior reconstrucción con injertos presentan problemas tanto funcionales como estéticos, el uso de prótesis implantosoportadas mejora la calidad de vida, pero al mismo tiempo representan un desafío por la baja disponibilidad ósea. Se presenta un caso clínico de rehabilitación protésica implantosoportada en una paciente con gran déficit óseo mandibular como consecuencia de le extirpación de una neoplasia y posterior injerto de costilla. Se colocaron 2 implantes osteointegrados en hueso remanente y rehabilitación con prótesis removible sostenida a una barra colada. Por ser un tratamiento poco invasivo y conservador fue aceptado fácilmente por la paciente y la mejora tanto en la estética como en la función fue notoria.


Nowadays, it is becoming more and more frequent to see patients who underwent surgery for tumor removal and subsequent reconstruction with grafts at an early age, presenting both functional and esthetic problems. The use of implant-supported prostheses improves the quality of life, but at the same time represents a challenge due to the low availability of bone. A clinical case of implant-supported prosthetic rehabilitation is presented in a patient with a great mandibular bone deficit as a consequence of the removal of a neoplasm and subsequent rib graft. Two osseointegrated implants were placed in the remaining bone and rehabilitation with a removable prosthesis supported by a cast bar. Being a minimally invasive and conservative treatment, it was easily accepted by the patient and the improvement in both esthetics and function was notorious.


Atualmente, são cada vez mais frequentes os pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de remoção de tumores e posterior reconstrução com enxertos em idade precoce que apresentam problemas funcionais e estéticos. O uso de próteses implanto-suportadas melhora a qualidade de vida, mas, ao mesmo tempo, representa um desafio devido à baixa disponibilidade de osso. Apresentamos um caso clínico de reabilitação protética implanto-suportada em um paciente com grande déficit ósseo mandibular em consequência da remoção de uma neoplasia e posterior enxerto de costela. Dois implantes osseointegrados foram colocados no osso remanescente e a reabilitação foi feita com uma prótese removível suportada por uma barra de gesso. Por se tratar de um tratamento minimamente invasivo e conservador, foi facilmente aceito pelo paciente e a melhora na estética e na função foi perceptível.

ABSTRACT

El cuerpo adiposo de la boca (CAB) es un componente adiposo multilobulado bien delimitado, localizado de manera bilateral en la región facial íntimamente relacionado a estructuras nerviosas y vasculares. La remoción de CAB es un procedimiento ampliamente estudiado en el campo de la cirugía maxilofacial, utilizado principalmente para cubrir defectos. Su influencia en la estética facial ha iniciado una popularización de la remoción de la extensión bucal de CAB para obtener un rostro más estilizado, intervención difundida como poco invasiva y sin complicaciones. El objetivo de este estudio fue recopilar y evaluar estudios que reporten y evalúen complicaciones asociadas a la remoción por razones estéticas de CAB. Se revisó la evidencia en las bases de datos Medline vía PubMed, Epistemonikos, Scopus y Google Scholar, utilizando términos predefinidos, seleccionando estudios primarios de reportes de casos. Se incluyeron 7 artículos con un total de 10 pacientes; de estos, ocho pacientes se realizaron este procedimiento en Brasil, uno en Estados Unidos y uno en Chile. La distribución de la población fue de 3:7 entre hombres y mujeres con edad promedio de 35 años y un rango entre los 23 a los 49 años. En relación a las complicaciones reportadas, 100 % de los pacientes presentaron asimetría facial, un 80 % presentó edema facial, 30 % manifestaron sialocele, Trismus 20 %, 40 % presentó hematoma, 20 % compromiso del estado general, 20 % presentaron disfagia, en los casos de hipoestesia, parestesia, absceso, seroma, parálisis facial, odinofagia, fiebre se expresaron en 10 % de la población estudiada. En todos los estudios se describió una reintervención quirúrgica posterior a la remoción estética del cuerpo adiposo de bichat. La escasa literatura y la baja calidad de esta, no permite estimar el porcentaje real de posibles complicaciones, tampoco es posible determinar sus resultados a largo plazo ya que no existe en la evidencia un seguimiento apropiado para estos pacientes.


The buccal adipose body (BAB) is a well- defined multilobulated adipose component, located bilaterally in the facial region, closely related to nervous and vascular structures. BAB removal is a widely studied procedure in the field of maxillofacial surgery, used mainly to cover defects. Its influence on facial aesthetics has started to popularize the removal of the BAB buccal extension to obtain a more stylized face, an intervention widely known as minimally invasive and without complications. The objective of this study was to collect and evaluate studies that report and evaluate complications associated with the removal of BAB for cosmetic reasons. The evidence was reviewed in the Medline databases via PubMed, Epistemonikos, Scopus, and Google Scholar, using predefined terms, selecting primary studies from case reports. 7 articles with a total of 10 patients were included; Of these, eight patients underwent this procedure in Brazil, one in the United States, and one in Chile. The distribution of the population was 3:7 between men and women with an average age of 35 years and a range between 23 to 49 years. In relation to the reported complications, 100 % of the patients presented facial asymmetry, 80 % presented facial edema, 30 % manifested sialocele, trismus 20 %, 40 % presented hematoma, 20 % compromised general state, 20 % presented dysphagia, in the cases of hypoesthesia, paresthesia, abscess, seroma, facial paralysis, odynophagia, fever were expressed in 10 % of the studied population. All the studies described a surgical reintervention after cosmetic removal of the bichat adipose body. The scarce literature and its low quality do not allow estimating the real percentage of possible complications, nor is it possible to determine their long-term results since there is no evidence of appropriate follow-up for these patients.

ABSTRACT

Nas cirurgias odontológicas é possível que ocorra alguns acidentes ou complicações que podem interferir no dia a dia do paciente. A lesão do nervo alveolar inferior é uma complicação decorrente de cirurgias orais que podem causar um distúrbio de sensibilidade transitória ou persistente, na região do lábio inferior e na região delimitada do forame mentoniano e hemi-arco da mucosa. O diagnóstico da parestesia pode ser feito através de testes mecanoceptivos e nocioceptivos em que o profissional escolherá para qual melhor se adapte no paciente. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi abordar por meio de uma revisão de literatura as formas de diagnóstico e tratamento da parestesia do nervo alveolar inferior decorrentes de cirurgias orais. As bases de dados utilizadas para confecção desta revisão são encontradas nas bibliotecas virtuais eletrônicas: BVS (Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde), LILACS (Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde) e Pubmed. Como critério de inclusão foram selecionados artigos publicados de 2012 a 2022 em língua inglesa, portuguesa e espanhola. Após a leitura do título e resumo dos resultados da pesquisa e aplicação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão dentre eles foram excluídos 883, pois não se enquadravam no nosso critério de inclusão. No final, foram selecionados 13 estudos por meio de base de dados, que serviram de base para esta revisão. Concluímos que as formas de tratamento para a parestesia na literatura, são um pouco escassas e conflitantes, mas relata que o uso da laserterapia e acupuntura tem sido uma forma de tratamento com um bom índice de sucesso, e para os casos que não sejam suficientes tais tratamentos, pode-se optar por uma cirurgia(AU)


In dental surgeries it is possible to have some accidents or complications that can interfere with the patient's day. Injury to the inferior alveolar nerve is a complication resulting from oral surgeries that can cause a disturbance of sensitivity that can be transient or persistent in the region of the lower lip and in the delimited region of the mental foramen and hemiarch of the mucosa. The diagnosis of paresthesia can be made through mechanoceptive and nocioceptive tests that the professional will choose, which best suits the patient. The objective of the present work is to approach, through a literature review, the forms of diagnosis and treatment aimed at inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia resulting from oral surgeries. The databases used for this review are found in the virtual electronic libraries: VHL (Virtual Health Library), LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences) and Pubmed. As inclusion criteria, articles published from 2012 to 2022 in English, Portuguese and Spanish were selected. After reading the title and summary of the research results and applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 883 were excluded, as they did not meet our inclusion criteria. In the end, 13 studies were selected from the database, which served as the basis for this review. We conclude that the forms of treatment for paresthesia in the literature are a little scarce and conflicting, but it reports that the use of laser therapy and acupuncture has been a form of treatment with a good success rate, and for cases that are not enough, such treatments, one can opt for surgery(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introdução: A extração de terceiros molares é um dos procedimentos mais comuns realizados pelos cirurgiões bucomaxilofaciais e as potenciais complicações dessa intervenção estão bem documentadas. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo é encontrar as associações entre essas complicações e variáveis relacionadas aos dentes ou aos pacientes e, assim, ajudar os cirurgiões a predizê-las e preveni-las. Métodos: Nosso estudo avalia a prevalência de omplicações em exodontias de terceiros molares inferiores utilizando uma amostra populacional brasileira em um período de 10 anos para estabelecer a probabilidade dessas complicações e sua associação com variáveis como idade, sexo e posição do dente na arcada . As mesmas variáveis foram usadas em relação a pericoronarite prévia. Trata-se de um estudo observacional retrospectivo transversal, seguindo as diretrizes STROBE. Resultados e Conclusões: Mil e nove pacientes tiveram 1.822 terceiros molares extraídos, sem associação detectada entre condições sistêmicas e complicações, embora esses pacientes com complicações sistêmicas tenham 1,9 vezes mais chances de ter pericoronarite. A pericoronarite foi mais prevalente em pacientes saudáveis, com classificação A e III de Pell & Gregory e posição distoangular. Esses achados corroboram a literatura atual ao comparar a classificação de Pell e Gregory e a maior prevalência de complicações... (AU)

Introduction: Extraction of third molars is one the most common procedures carried out by Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons and the potential complications of such intervention are well documented. Purpose: The objective of this study is to find the associations between these complications and variables related either to the teeth or the patients and thus help surgeons to predict and prevent them. Methods: Our study evaluate the prevalence of complications in extractions of the lower third molars using a Brazilian population sample over a period of 10 years to establish the probability of these complications and their association with variables such as age, sex and tooth position in the arch. The same variables were used to determine previous pericoronitis. This is a retrospective cross-sectional observational study, following the STROBE guidelines. Results and Conclusions: One thousand and nine patients had 1,822 third molars extracted, with no associations detected between systemic conditions and complications, although these patients are 1.9 times more likely to have pericoronitis. Pericoronitis was more prevalent in healthy patients, with Pell & Gregory classification A and III and distoangular position. These findings corroborate the current literature when comparing Pell and Gregory classification and the higher prevalence of complications... (AU)

ABSTRACT

Introducción: una adecuada hemostasia es crucial para el éxito del tratamiento odontológico invasivo, ya que los problemas de sangrado pueden dar lugar a complicaciones asociadas a una importante morbimortalidad. El tratamiento odontológico de pacientes que tienden a un mayor riesgo de sangrado debido al uso de fármacos anticoagulantes plantea un desafío en la práctica diaria de los profesionales de la odontología. El conocimiento adecuado de los mecanismos subyacentes a la hemostasia y el manejo optimizado de estos pacientes son, por lo tanto, cuestiones muy importantes. Se realiza un estudio de los fármacos anticoagulantes actualmente disponibles en el mercado, evaluando los riesgos y beneficios de suspender dicho fármaco previo a un tratamiento odontológico invasivo. Además, se hace una revisión de los protocolos de manejo actuales que se utilizan en estos pacientes. Material y métodos: se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en las bases de datos Epistemonikos y Medline/PubMed; en el portal Timbó y en la biblioteca virtual Scielo. Abarcando todos los estudios publicados en los últimos 15 años en inglés y español. Se encontraron 30 artículos, se seleccionaron 15 en primera instancia para finalizar con 11 artículos. En dicha selección el filtro fue que los demás artículos se referían a otros anticoagulantes que no eran parte de este trabajo. Resultados: se han desarrollado múltiples protocolos de manejo, aunque en todos los casos se requiere una historia clínica completa, junto con pruebas hemostáticas complementarias para minimizar los riesgos derivados del tratamiento odontológico. Discusión: muchos autores consideran que la medicación de los pacientes indicada para el tratamiento de una enfermedad de base no debe ser alterada o suspendida a menos que así lo indique el médico prescriptor. Se ha demostrado que las medidas hemostáticas locales son suficientes para controlar los posibles problemas de sangrado derivados del tratamiento dental.


Introduction: Adequate hemostasis is crucial for the success of invasive dental treatment, since bleeding problems can lead to complications associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The dental treatment of patients who are prone to an increased risk of bleeding due to the use of anticoagulant drugs poses a challenge in the daily practice of dental professionals. Adequate knowledge of the mechanisms underlying hemostasis and optimized management of these patients are therefore very important issues. A review is made of the anticoagulant drugs currently available on the market, evaluating the risks and benefits of suspending such a drug prior to invasive dental treatment. In addition, a review is made of the current management protocols used in these patients. Material and methods: A bibliographic search was carried out in the Epistemonikos and Medline/PubMed databases; in the Timbo portal and in the Scielo virtual library. All the studies published in the last 15 years in English and Spanish were included. Thirty articles were found, 15 were selected in the first instance to end up with 11 articles. In this selection, the filter was that the other articles referred to other anticoagulants that were not part of this work. Results: multiple management protocols have been developed, although in all cases a complete clinical history is required, together with complementary hemostatic tests to minimize the risks derived from dental treatment. Discussion: many authors consider that the patient's medication indicated for the treatment of an underlying disease should not be altered or suspended unless so indicated by the prescribing physician. It has been shown that local hemostatic measures are sufficient to control possible bleeding problems derived from dental treatment.


Introdução: A hemostasia adequada é crucial para o sucesso do tratamento dentário invasivo, pois problemas de sangramento podem levar a complicações associadas a uma morbidade e mortalidade significativas. O tratamento odontológico de pacientes que são propensos a um risco maior de sangramento devido ao uso de drogas anticoagulantes representa um desafio na prática diária dos profissionais da odontologia. O conhecimento adequado dos mecanismos subjacentes à hemostasia e o gerenciamento otimizado desses pacientes são, portanto, questões muito importantes. É realizada uma revisão dos anticoagulantes atualmente disponíveis no mercado, avaliando os riscos e benefícios de descontinuar tal medicamento antes do tratamento dentário invasivo. Além disso, é feita uma revisão dos protocolos de gerenciamento atuais usados nesses pacientes. Material e métodos: Foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica nas bases de dados Epistemonikos e Medline/PubMed; no portal Timbo e na biblioteca virtual Scielo. Todos os estudos publicados nos últimos 15 anos, em inglês e espanhol, foram incluídos. Trinta artigos foram encontrados, 15 foram selecionados em primeira instância para acabar com 11 artigos. Nesta seleção, o filtro foi que os outros artigos se referiam a outros anticoagulantes que não faziam parte deste trabalho. Resultados: foram desenvolvidos múltiplos protocolos de gerenciamento, embora em todos os casos seja necessário um histórico clínico completo, juntamente com testes hemostáticos complementares para minimizar os riscos derivados do tratamento odontológico. Discussão: muitos autores consideram que a medicação os pacientes indicada para o tratamento de uma doença subjacente não deve ser alterada ou descontinuada, a menos que o médico que a prescreve dê instruções nesse sentido. Medidas hemostáticas locais demonstraram ser suficientes para controlar potenciais problemas de sangramento resultantes do tratamento odontológico.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: El objetivo principal de este estudio fue determinar la incidencia de complicaciones post cirugía bucal. METODOLOGÍA: Se desarrolló un estudio observacional, descriptivo, con el uso del registro prospectivo de la totalidad de pacientes ingresados para cirugía bucal del Complejo Hospitalario San Borja-Arriarán durante doce meses de observación (abril 2017 a marzo 2018). RESULTADOS: La muestra estuvo conformada por 532 pacientes sometidos a procedimientos quirúrgicos de cirugía bucal y 29 casos de complicación postquirúrgica. La incidencia de complicaciones alcanzó un 5,5% y se observó de manera predominante en intervenciones de tipo exodoncia. La complicación mayormente observada fue la alveolitis alcanzando un 2,5% de las cirugías de terceros molares y un 3,7% de las exodoncias de otros dientes. Las hemorragias postoperatorias se observaron en un 1,1% de las cirugías de terceros molares. Otras complicaciones postquirúrgicas fueron abscesos de espacios faciales, parestesia del nervio alveolar inferior, hematomas, equimosis y periostitis. CONCLUSIÓN: Los resultados fueron similares a los reportados en la literatura tanto en su frecuencia como en el tipo de complicación.


OBJECTIVE: The main objective of this investigation was to determine the incidence of postoperative complications in oral surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An observational and descriptive study was developed with the use of the prospective registry of the patients admitted for oral surgery in the San Borja Arriarán Hospital Complex for a twelve-month period of observation (April 2017 to March 2018). RESULTS: The sample consisted of 532 patients undergoing surgical procedures of oral surgery and 29 cases of postoperative complications. The incidence of complications reached 5,5% and it was observed predominantly in interventions of tooth extraction. The most commonly observed complication was dry socket, reaching 2,5% of third molar surgeries and 3,7% of extractions of other teeth. Postoperative hemorrhages were observed in 1,1% of third molar surgeries. Other postoperative complications were facial spaces abscesses, paresthesia of the inferior alveolar nerve, bruising, ecchymosis and periostitis. CONCLUSIONS: The results were similar to those reported in the literature both in their frequency and in the type of complication.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: realizar uma revisão de literatura sobre a ocorrência de alterações significativas na pressão arte¬rial sistêmica de pacientes submetidos a procedimentos cirúrgicos odontológicos. Materiais e método: esta revisão de literatura foi conduzida por meio das seguintes bases de dados: PubMed, SciELO e Google Scholar. As palavras-chave para a busca textual foram: cirurgia oral (oral surgery), hipertensão (hypertension), ansiedade (anxiety), odontologia (dentistry). Os critérios de inclusão foram: literatura sobre a temática em estudo, literatura dos últimos anos, literatura publicada em inglês ou português, estudos laboratoriais e clínicos e revisão sistemática. Os critérios de exclusão foram: revisão de literatura, carta ao editor, artigo de opinião, literatura duplicada em bases de dados e literatura que não abordasse as variáveis em estudo. Revisão de literatura: durante a prática clínica, o cirurgião-dentista lida rotineiramente com pacientes sistemicamente comprometidos. Entre eles, encontram-se os pacientes hipertensos, que necessitam de uma atenção diferenciada, devido a diversos fatores externos que podem influenciar sua condição sistêmica. Considerações finais: existe uma variação da pressão arterial durante todo procedimento cirúrgico odontológico, e o momento mais evidente dessa alteração é após a anestesia; essas variações, por sua vez, podem ser atribuídas à ansiedade e ao estresse causados pelo ato cirúrgico; a redução do estresse bem como o controle da ansiedade e do medo frente a um tratamento odontológico são benefícios no atendimento de pacientes hipertensos. (AU)


Objective: the objective of this study was to describe through a review of the literature on the occurrence of significant changes in the systemic arterial pressure of patients submitted to dental surgical procedures. Materials and method: this literature review was conducted using the databases: PubMed, SciELO and Google Scholar. The keywords for the literature search were: Oral surgery; Hypertension; Anxiety; Dentistry. The inclusion criteria were: papers that covers the subject under study, papers of the last years, papers in English and Portuguese language, laboratory studies, clinical studies and systematic review. The exclusion criteria were: literature review, letter to the editor, opinion article, papers duplicated in databases and literature that did not address the variables under study. Literature review: in the clinical practice, the dental surgeon routinely treats systemically compromised patients. Among them are the hypertensive patients who need a differentiated attention due to several external factors that can influence their systemic health. Final considerations: there are a variation of the arterial pressure throughout the dental surgical procedure, the moment that this change becomes more evident is after the anesthesia; these variations in turn can be attributed to the anxiety and stress caused by the surgical act; the reduction of surgical stress as well as the control of anxiety and fear of dental treatment are benefits in the care of hypertensive patients.

ABSTRACT

This review examines the evidence about the relationship between dental procedures and the incidence of transient bacteremia. One of the main obstacles was to define "invasive dental procedure" as an indication for antimicrobial prophylaxis for patients with high risk of bacteremia. A search in WorldWideScience and ScienceDirect was performed and 20 articles were selected for review. Two contradictions stood out. There is no concrete evidence that a transient bacteremia arising during a dental procedure may be a risk factor for the appearance of bacterial endocarditis. There is no certainty about the effectiveness of antimicrobial prophylaxis, due to the lack of clinical trials of good quality. There is a similitude between bacteremia resulting from invasive and non-invasive dental procedures. The importance of periodontal health as a preventive measure for bacterial endocarditis among high risk patients is highlighted.

ABSTRACT

A osteorradionecrose (ORN) dos maxilares é uma grave complicação do tratamento radioterápico do câncer de cabeça e pescoço. A realização de exodontias em pacientes que realizaram radioterapia de cabeça e pescoço aumenta o risco de ocorrer osteorradionecrose. Foi realizado estudo prospectivo randomizado e duplo cego com dois protocolos antibióticos utilizados para prevenir a ocorrência de ORN. Pacientes do grupo 1 (G1) utilizaram cobertura antibiótica com amoxicilina 500 mg, a cada 8 horas, via oral, por 8 dias iniciando um dia antes da exodontia, pacientes do grupo 2 (G2) utilizaram cobertura antibiótica com amoxicilina 500mg a cada 8 horas via oral, por 4 dias, iniciando um dia antes do procediemento, continuando por 3 dias após a cirurgia, e utilizando placebo de igual aparência por 4 dias. Onze pacientes foram incluídos no estudo sendo 10 deles do sexo masculino. A idade média dos pacientes foi de 56± 7anos, e 63,6% utilizaram mais de 6.000 cGy durante a radioterapia. Foram realizados 36 procedimentos cirúrgicos, e 51 dentes foram extraídos. Dois pacientes (18,1%) apresentaram três áreas (5,9%) com sinais de ORN em um período médio de acompanhamento de 10± 7 meses. Todos as áreas necróticas ocorreram em região posterior (pré-molares e molares), apresentavam um ou os dois dentes com presença de lesão radiográfica, ocorreram após cirurgias com duração maior que 13 minutos, e apresentavam 1 ou 2 dentes com doença periodontal como motivo da exodontia. Duas áreas necróticas ocorreram em mandíbula, e um em maxila. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre a prevalência de sinais de ORN quando considerado o número de pacientes, procedimentos cirúrgicos realizados, dentes extraídos ou o protocolo antibiótico utilizado. O protocolo utilizado por G2 reduziu o risco de sinais de ORN em pacientes que receberam tratamento radioterápico em região de cabeça e pescoço e que necessitaram remover dentes devido a doença periodontal.


Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of jaws is a severe complication of head and neck cancer radiotherapy. Dental extractions in irradiated head and neck cancer patients increases ORN risk. A prospective, randomized, double blind study with two different ORN prevention antibiotics protocols were performed. Group 1 patients (G1) received 8th hourly oral amoxicillin 500mg for 8 days starting 1 day pre extraction, and group 2 patients (G2) received 8th hourly oral amoxicillin 500mg for 4 days starting 1 day pre extraction, followed by 4 days of a same appearance placebo drug. A total of 11 patients (10 male and one female) underwent extractions of teeth. Mean age of the patients was 56± 7 years, and 63,6% received more than 6.000cGy radiation dosages. Thirty-six surgery procedures were performed, and 51 teeth were extracted. After a mean follow-up period of 10± 7 months three ORN signals (maxilla 1/mandible 2) were reported, in 2 (18,1%) patients. Necrotic areas envolve theposterior region of jaws, presented previous radiographic lesion, had more than 13 minutes of surgery time, and envolved teeth with periodontal disease. No difference in ORN prevalence beetwen groups of patients, surgical procedures, or removed teeth were detected. The G2 protocol decreased ORN risk when teeth with periodontal problems were extracted.

ABSTRACT

El objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar el nivel de información que poseen los odontólogos periodoncistas con respecto a la aparición de hipersensibilidad dentinaria posterior a los procedimientos quirúrgicos, identificar cuál es la cirugía que más la genera, así como los tratamientos más utilizados en el manejo de la entidad. Materiales y métodos: Se realizó un estudio de campo, de tipo descriptivo y transversal. La muestra estuvo conformada por 86 periodoncistasque corresponden al 30 por cienot de la población que integra la Sociedad Venezolana de Periodontología. La información se recolectó con un instrumento tipo encuesta. Resultados: El 89,53 por ciento manifestó que sus pacientes refieren hipersensibilidaddentinaria posterior a la realización de procedimientos quirúrgicos periodontales. La cirugía para reducción de sacos ocupó el primer lugar en generar hipersensibilidaddentinaria con un 57,14 por ciento. Un 96.10 por ciento de los especialistas entrevistados confirmó la utilización de algún tratamiento para la hipersensibilidad dentinaria. En relación a el tratamiento más utilizado, el 53,24 por ciento aplicó pastas desensibilizantes posterior a la fase periodontal quirúrgica. Conclusiones: Los resultados obtenidos en esta investigación indican que el nivel de información que poseen los profesionales de la periodontología en relación a la hipersensibilidaddentinaria posterior a la cirugía periodontal es elevado debido a la alta prevalencia de esta afección en la población tratada. El procedimiento quirúrgico más asociado a la hipersensibilidad dentinaria fue la cirugía para reducción de sacos. La aplicación de pastas desensibilizantes fue el tratamiento más utilizado paracontrolarla.

Introducción: La infección del sitio quirúrgico (ISQ) sigue generando gran morbimortalidad, a pesar de los avances en control de infecciones y técnicas quirúrgicas. Objetivos Determinar si en cirugía maxilofacial mayor limpia contaminada el aumento del tiempo operatorio incrementa la proporción de infección del sitio quirúrgico. Materiales y método Estudio observacional analítico en pacientes ASA I intervenidos en cirugía maxilofacial mayor limpia contaminada entre los años 1997 y 2010 en el Hospital Clínico San Borja Arriarán (Santiago, Chile). Las variables medidas fueron género, edad, tiempo operatorio e ISQ. Se realizó un análisis estadístico mediante prueba de Chi cuadrado, test de la t de Student y regresión logística simple, con un IC del 95 por ciento y el paquete estadístico SPSS. Resultados De un total de 522 pacientes presentaron ISQ 36 (6,9 por ciento). Al comparar los 2 grupos, con ISQ y sin ISQ, no hubo diferencias significativas según género (p = 0,319) y edad (p = 0,238), pero sí según tiempo operatorio (p = 0,046). Se obtuvo un OR = 1,003 (IC 95 por ciento = 1,000-1,006) entre el tiempo operatorio y la infección del sitio quirúrgico. Conclusión Se encontraron diferencias significativas en la proporción de ISQ al aumentar el tiempo operatorio. Sin embargo, esta asociación no es clínicamente significativa.


Introduction: Despite advances in infection control and surgical techniques, surgical site infection (SSI) continues to be a cause of high morbidity and mortality. Objectives To determine if operating time increases the proportion of surgical site infections in clean-contaminated maxillofacial surgery. Materials and method This was an observational analytical study, including ASA I patients undergoing clean-contaminated maxillofacial surgery between 1997 and 2010 at the Clinical Hospital San Borja Arriarán (Santiago, Chile). The outcome variable was surgical site infection. Predictor variables were gender, age, operating time and SSI. Statistical analysis was performed using chi-squared test, Student t test, and simple logistic regression. Results A total of 522 patients met the inclusion criteria. The infection rate was 6.9 percent. Statistically significant differences were only observed in the operation time (P = .046) with an Odds ratio of 1.003 (95 percent CI = 1.000-1.006). Conclusion Significant differences in the proportion of SSI were found when operation time increased. However, this association is not clinically significant.

ABSTRACT

AbstractObjective The objective of this study was to clarify significant risk factors for postoperative complications in the oral cavity in patients who underwent oral surgery, excluding those with oral cancer.Material and Methods This study reviewed the records of 324 patients who underwent mildly to moderately invasive oral surgery (e.g., impacted tooth extraction, cyst excision, fixation of mandibular and maxillary fractures, osteotomy, resection of a benign tumor, sinus lifting, bone grafting, removal of a sialolith, among others) under general anesthesia or intravenous sedation from 2012 to 2014 at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Reconstructive Surgery, Hiroshima University Hospital.Results Univariate analysis showed a statistical relationship between postoperative complications (i.e., surgical site infection, anastomotic leak) and diabetes (p=0.033), preoperative serum albumin level (p=0.009), and operation duration (p=0.0093). Furthermore, preoperative serum albumin level (<4.0 g/dL) and operation time (≥120 minutes) were found to be independent factors affecting postoperative complications in multiple logistic regression analysis results (odds ratio 3.82, p=0.0074; odds ratio 2.83, p=0.0086, respectively).Conclusion Our results indicate that a low level of albumin in serum and prolonged operation duration are important risk factors for postoperative complications occurring in the oral cavity following oral surgery.

ABSTRACT

The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the low level laser therapy (LLLT) in postoperative pain and swelling associated with periapical surgery. A double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial was carried out in 2 groups of 10 patients each, undergoing periapical surgery. The experimental group was treated with an intraoral application of an 810 nm-GaAsAl-laser, having an output power of 100 mW, with overlapping movements over the wound. In the control group, the same procedure was carried out, without therapeutic laser activation. Postoperative pain, swelling, and rescue medication were registered. The experimental group exhibited a decrease in pain intensity after periapical surgery compared with control group (p<0.05). There was not significant statistical difference between the groups in terms of swelling. Six patients of the control group required rescue medication. The use of LLLT in the postoperative management of patients having periapical surgery, using the protocol of this study reduced postoperative pain...

ABSTRACT

Reportar la prevalencia de complicaciones en pacientes sometidos a cirugía de terceros molares, en el servicio maxilofacial del Hospital Base de Valdivia, Chile entre los años 2007 y 2010. Se realizó un estudio observacional de tipo transversal. Se revisaron registros clínicos de pacientes atendidos entre el 1 de enero del año 2007 y el 30 de diciembre del año 2010. Se consideraron como criterios de inclusión los pacientes que se hayan realizado una o más cirugía de terceros molares en el Hospital Base de Valdivia, pacientes que no hayan presentado alguna patología sistémica de base que aumente el riesgo de complicaciones. Se excluyeron los registros clínicos ilegibles y los que no presentaran la hoja de protocolo quirúrgico o evolución posterior a la cirugía. Durante el período se atendieron 777 pacientes para cirugía de terceros molares. Para el análisis se consideraron 679 pacientes, de los cuales 75 (11%) presentaron alguna complicación. La proporción hombre mujer fue de 1:1,67. Las complicaciones más frecuentes fueron edema (5,7%), seguido de dolor (3,5%) y alveolitis (2,4%). Estas tres complicaciones comprenden el 80% de todas las complicaciones reportadas. Las complicaciones menos usuales fueron hemorragia postoperatoria y flegmon. La prevalencia de complicaciones en cirugía hospitalaria de terceros molares es de 11%. Esta prevalencia es similar a las reportadas en otros países. Edema, dolor y alveolitis explican el mayor porcentaje de complicaciones, por lo que se deberían tener en consideración al momento de realizar este procedimiento quirúrgico


The objective of the present study was to report on the prevalence of complications in patients undergoing third molar surgery in the maxillofacial service at the Base Hospital in Valdivia, Chile between 2007 and 2010. An observational cross-sectional study was conducted and clinical records of patients treated between January 1, 2007 and December 30, 2010 were reviewed. Patients who had undergone one or more third molar surgery in the Base Hospital of Valdivia, patients who had not presented any systemic underlying condition that increased the risk of complications were considered as inclusion criteria. Illegible medical records were excluded as were those cases that did not include postsurgical evolution records. Of the 777 patients treated for third molar surgery, 679 patients were considered for analysis, of this group 75 patients 11 % had complications. The male / female ratio was 1:1.67. The most frequent complications were edema 5.7% followed by pain, 3.5% and alveolitis 2.4%. These complications comprise 80 % of all complications reported. Less common complications were postoperative bleeding and phlegmon. The prevalence of hospital complications in third molar surgery is 11%. This prevalence is similar to that reported in other countries. The most frequent complications reported were edema, pain and alveolitis. Therefore, this information should be taken into consideration when performing this surgical procedure

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of the levels of glycemic control on the frequency of clinical complications following invasive dental treatments in type 2 diabetic patients and suggest appropriate levels of fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin considered to be safe to avoid these complications. METHOD: Type 2 diabetic patients and non-diabetic patients were selected and divided into three groups. Group I consisted of 13 type 2 diabetic patients with adequate glycemic control (fasting blood glucose levels <140 mg/dl and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels <7%). Group II consisted of 15 type 2 diabetic patients with inadequate glycemic control (fasting blood glucose levels >140 mg/dl and HbA1c levels >7%). Group III consisted of 18 non-diabetic patients (no symptoms and fasting blood glucose levels <100 mg/dl). The levels of fasting blood glucose, glycated HbA1c, and fingerstick capillary glycemia were evaluated in diabetic patients prior to performing dental procedures. Seven days after the dental procedure, the frequency of clinical complications (surgery site infections and systemic infections) was examined and compared between the three study groups. In addition, correlations between the occurrence of these outcomes and the glycemic control of diabetes mellitus were evaluated. RESULTS: The frequency of clinical outcomes was low (4/43; 8.6%), and no significant differences between the outcome frequencies of the various study groups were observed (p>0.05). However, a significant association was observed between clinical complications and dental extractions (p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: Because of the low frequency of clinical outcomes, it was not possible to determine whether fasting blood glucose or glycated HbA1c levels are important for these clinical outcomes.

ABSTRACT

O risco de hemorragia após procedimentos cirúrgicos odontológicos constitui-se em grande preocupação para os cirurgiões-dentistas, especialmente em pacientes que usam anticoagulantes orais. Os anticoagulantes orais são medicamentos utilizados para diminuir o risco de formação de trombos em pacientes de alto risco. Estão indicados na prevenção do tromboembolismo venoso, embolia sistêmica em pacientes com prótese de válvulas cardíacas, doença vascular cardíaca, fibrilação atrial, acidente vascular cerebral, infarto agudo do miocárdio e de sua recorrência.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to compare the peripheral bone damage induced by different cutting systems. Four devices were tested: Er:YAG laser (2.94 mm), Piezosurgery, high-speed drill and low-speed drill. Forty-five bone sections, divided into 9 groups according to different parameters, were taken from pig mandibles within 1 h post mortem. Specimens were fixed in 10 percent buffered formalin, decalcified and cut in thin sections. Four different parameters were analyzed: cut precision, depth of incision, peripheral carbonization and presence of bone fragments. For statistical analysis, the Kruskal-Wallis test was applied to assess equality of sample medians among groups. All sections obtained with the Er:YAG laser showed poor peripheral carbonization. The edges of the incisions were always well-shaped and regular, no melting was observed. Piezosurgery specimens revealed superficial incisions without thermal damage but with irregular edges. The sections obtained by traditional drilling showed poor peripheral carbonization, especially if obtained at lower speed. There was statistically significant differences (p<0.01) among the cutting systems for all analyzed parameters. Er:YAG laser, gave poor peripheral carbonization, and may be considered an effective method in oral bone biopsies and permits to obtain clear and readable tissue specimens.


O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar o dano ósseo periférico produzido por diversos sistemas de corte. Foram avaliados 4 dispositivos: laser Er:YAG (2,94 mm), Piezo-cirurgia, broca em alta rotação e broca em baixa rotação. Para isto, foram utilizadas 45 seções ósseas retiradas de mandíbulas de suínos, até 1 h post-mortem, divididas em 9 grupos de acordo com diversos parâmetros. As amostras foram fixadas em formalina a 10 por cento tamponada, descalcificadas e cortadas em lâminas finas. Foram analisados 4 parâmetros diferentes: a precisão do corte, a profundidade da incisão, a carbonização periférica e presença de fragmentos ósseos. A análise estatística empregou o teste de Kruskal-Wallis para avaliar a similaridade das medianas entre os grupos. Todas as seções feitas com o laser Er:YAG exibiram pouca carbonização. As margens das incisões foram todas bem acabadas e regulares, sem apresentar pontos de fusão. As amostras obtidas por piezo-cirurgia apresentaram incisões superficiais sem danos térmicos, mas com margens irregulares. As seções obtidas pelas brocas convencionais apresentaram pouca carbonização marginal, particularmente as feitas em baixa rotação. Foram observadas diferenças estatisticamente significantes (p<0,01) entre todos os sistemas de corte para cada um dos parâmetros analisados. O laser Er:YAG apresentou pouca carbonização e pode ser considerado como um método eficaz para biópsias de ossos bucais, produzindo amostras de tecido limpas e fáceis de analisar.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The consequences of a diagnosis of head and neck cancer and the impact of treatment have a clear and direct influence on well-being and associated quality of life (QOL) in these patients. AIMS: To determine the QOL in head and neck cancer patients following a partial glossectomy operation. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional cohort study; Head and Neck Oncology Unit, tertiary referral center. Materials and METHODS: 38 patients with partial glossectomy were assessed with the University of Washington head and neck quality of life (UW-QOL) scale, version 4. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Statistical analysis was performed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences 10.0 (SPSS Inc, Chicago version III). Information from the scale was correlated using the Mann Whitney test. A P value less than/equal to 0.05 was considered as significant. RESULTS: The mean (sd) composite score of the QOL in our series was 73.6 (16.1). The majority (71.8%) quoted their QOL as good or very good. Swallowing (n = 16, 47.1%), speech (n = 15, 44.1%) and saliva (n = 15, 44.1%) were most commonly cited issues over the last 7 days. On the other hand, the groups with reconstruction, neck dissection, complications and radiotherapy demonstrated a significant reduction of quality of life scores (Mann Whitney test, P < 0.005). CONCLUSION: The composite score and overall QOL as assessed using the UW-QOL scale (version 4) were modestly high in our series of partial glossectomy patients. Swallowing, speech, and saliva are regarded as the most important issues. Stage of the disease, neck dissection, reconstruction, complications, radiotherapy and time since operation were seen to significantly affect domain scores.

ABSTRACT

La magnitud y el control del sangrado, junto al requerimiento de transfusión, han sido temas muy controvertidos en la cirugía ortognática. En la literatura se menciona el uso de técnicas y criterios disímiles y contradictorios. Hemos querido actualizar los criterios sobre el manejo del sangrado en la cirugía maxilofacial en base a nuestra experiencia con el uso de técnicas quirúrgicas y anestésicas actuales. Se presenta aquí una revisión crítica de las publicaciones sustentada por la experiencia clínica del equipo quirúrgico. Se discuten temas relacionados con el sangrado intraoperatorio tales como la predonación sanguínea, la reducción del sangrado mediante técnicas de hipotensión controlada, y el uso de vasoconstrictores o antifibrinolíticos junto a los fármacos anestésicos. Se realizan recomendaciones en base a nuestra experiencia clínica. La presente revisión concluye que con las técnicas actuales, como la anestesia hipotensiva y la anestesia basada en la analgesia simpaticolítica, se logra una mínima pérdida de sangre durante la cirugía ortognática. Estas técnicas prácticamente eliminan la necesidad de transfusiones sanguíneas, predonación y el uso rutinario de antifibrinolíticos, y las posibles complicaciones que estos conllevan.


The magnitude and management of blood loss, as well as the necessity of transfusion have been controversial themes in orthognathic surgery. Different and contradictory techniques and criteria have been used and exposed in the current literature. The aim of this study is to bring up to date the criteria concerning management of blood loss in maxillofacial surgery, based on our clinical experience with recent surgical and anesthetic techniques. A critical revision of the literature is exposed, according to the experience of the surgical team of the Maxillofacial department in. Themes related to intraoperative blood loss, preoperative autologous blood donation, drugs used in the anesthetic technique, reduction of blood loss with hypotensive anesthesia, the use of epinephrine and antifibrinolytic agents are discussed. Finally we present some recommendations based on our experience. This study shows that blood loss during orthognathic surgery is minimal with techniques such as hypotensive anesthesia and the analgesic sympathicolytic based anesthesia. These techniques practically eliminate the necessity of transfusion, preoperative autologous donation, the use of habitual antifibrinolytic agents and its complications.
