Purpose: Alveolar osteitis (AO) is the most common postoperative complication of dental extractions. The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of 1% versus 0.2% chlorhexidine (CHX) gel in reducing postoperative AO after surgical extraction of mandibular third molars, and assess the impact of treatment on the Oral HealthRelated Quality of Life (OHRQoL). Material and Methods: This clinical study was a randomized, double-blind clinical trial. Eighty eight patients underwent surgical extraction of one retained mandibular third molar with the intra-alveolar application of 0.2% CHX gel. Afterwards, they were assigned to one of two groups: 1% CHX gel (n=42) or 0.2% CHX gel (n=46). The patients applied the gel twice a day to the wound for one week. All patients were evaluated for AO. Results: In the 0.2% CHX gel group, 13% of AO incidence was found, while in the 1% CHX gel group, AO incidence was 7%, a difference that was not statistically significant. Variables such as sensation of pain and inflammation at baseline and during one week, as well as OHRQoL of the patients at 24 hours and 7 days post-extraction, gave no statistically significant differences. Conclusions: There are no significant differences in AO after surgical extraction of mandibular third molars, when comparing applying 1% CHX gel twice a day for 7 days with 0.2% CHX gel (AU)

La condromatosis sinovial (CS) es una metaplasia cartilaginosa de los remanentes mesenquimales del tejido sinovial de las articulaciones. Es una enfermedad de etiología desconocida y poco frecuente. Puede definirse como un proceso benigno sinovial caracterizado por la formación de nódulos cartilaginosos (cuerpos libres). La CS afecta principalmente a grandes articulaciones sinoviales siendo poco común su aparición en la articulación temporomandibular. La sintomatología predominante es dolor, inflamación, limitación de los movimientos mandibulares, crepitación y laterodesviación mandibular. El diagnóstico se realiza mediante el estudio radiológico y artroscópico de la articulación. El tratamiento adecuado englobaría la extirpación completa de los cuerpos libres y de la sinovial afecta, bien mediante artroscopia o mediante cirugía abierta. Cuando está afectada la articulación temporomandibular las lesiones suelen estar localizadas en la cavidad articular, siendo rara su extensión extraarticular. En este artículo describimos un caso excepcional de condromatosis sinovial con extensión a la fosa craneal media(AU)
Synovial chondromatosis (SC) is a cartilaginous metaplasia of the mesenchymal remnants of the synovial tissue of joints. It is an uncommon disease of unknown origin. This benign synovial process involves the formation of cartilaginous nodules (loose bodies) in the synovium and within the articular space. SC mainly affects large synovial joints, and only very rarely affects the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The main symptoms are pain, swelling, mouth opening limitation, crepitation, and lateral mandibular deviation. Diagnosis can be made by panoramic radiograph, computed tomography scan, magnetic resonance imaging, and arthroscopy of the TMJ. The main treatment includes complete removal of the loose bodies in conjunction with excision of the affected synovium. It can be performed by arthroscopy or by open surgery. In cases with TMJ involvement, the lesion is usually confined to the joint cavity. In this report, a rare case of SC of the TMJ with subcranial extension is presented(AU)

I. Introducción: Se realiza un estudio sobre los principalesparámetros histopatológicos en el carcinoma escamosode lengua, neoplasia que representa hoy día un auténtico problemade salud pública. II. Material y Métodos: 1. Diseño:Estudio retrospectivo de base hospitalaria integrado por 60pacientes desde enero de 1990 a julio de 1997 (seguimientomínimo de 8 años). 2. Variables: Filiación del paciente (edady sexo) y factores histopatológicos (diferenciación tumoral,índice mitótico, eosinofilia peritumoral, infiltración perivasculary perineural y patrón de crecimiento). 3. Estadística:Análisis descriptivo y estadística inferencial mediante test dechi-cuadrado y test exacto de Fischer (p<0,05). III. Resultados:Se obtuvieron un 26,66% de mujeres frente a un 73,34%de hombres, con una edad media de 58 años (Rango de 88-21). La invasión perineural y perivascular se asoció con unpatrón de crecimiento tumoral tipo II (8.4; p=0,01 y 9,74;p=0,03). Se obtuvo independencia estadística entre índicemitótico y diferenciación tumoral. IV. Conclusiones: Se hadeterminado una alta asociación entre la infiltración perivasculary perineural con el patrón de crecimiento tipo II. Estoshallazgos permiten elaborar un protocolo aplicable de formarutinaria en la evaluación del carcinoma epidermoide lingual
I. Introduction: A study is made of the main histopathologicalparameters in squamous cell carcinoma of thetongue. This neoplasm represents nowadays a outstandinghealth problem. II. Material and Methods: 1. Design: Ahospital population retrospective study over 60 patients sinceJanuary-1990 to July-1997 (minimal follow-up of 8years). 2. Variables: Patient data (age and sex) and histopathologicalfactors (tumoral grading, mitotic index, peritumoraleosinophilic, vascular and perineural infiltration,growth pattern). 3. Statistics: Descriptive analysis. Associationbetween variables was assessed with chi-square test andFischer exact test. (p<0.05). III. Results: There were26.66% females and 73.34% males, with a mean age of 58(range 88-21). The perineural and perivascular infiltrationwas associated with a tumoral pattern type II (8.4; p=0.01and 9.4; p=0.03). Mitotic Index and tumoral grading wereindependent parameters. IV. Conclusions: We determine ahigh association between perivascular and perineural infiltrationwith the tumoral pattern type II. This protocol maybe applied as routine for an accurate evaluation of the squamouscell carcinoma of the tongue
