Delayed Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Infection on a Mandibular Angle Fracture with Absorbable Plates

چکیده
was limited to early steroid therapy and occlusion therapy. The prognosis of oculomotor nerve palsy varies according to its etiology and the associated neurological problems. Some authors suggest waiting for at least six months before strabismus surgery, which permits the cause of oculomotor palsy to be evaluated and allows for possible spontaneous recovery [2]. A surgical approach, including strabismus surgery and ptosis surgery, should be considered according to the degree of recovery. We suggest that plastic surgeons keep in mind that facial trauma may occur in combination with various cranial nerve injuries and therefore should evaluate patients with facial trauma for the symptoms and signs of cranial nerve injuries.

None of the reports of delayed infection mentioned a latent period exceeding 13 months. we report an infection that developed 18 months after implantation of an absorbable plate. A 16-year-old adolescent girl had undergone reduction and fixation with an absorbable plate for Lefort I and zygomaticomaxillary complex fractures 18 months prior at our hospital. In her most recent hospital visit as a...

BACKGROUND Pin tract infection is a common complication of external fixation. It usually heals after treatment with debridement, antibiotics, and/or pin removal, only rarely developing into delayed osteomyelitis. We treated two patients with delayed methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-induced osteomyelitis of the tibia following pin tract infection. CASE PRESENTATION One patient, a di...

Background & Aims: Prevalence of community and hospital acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection is increasing. The primary reservoir is the anterior nares; and nasal carriage is a risk factor for infection in a variety of populations. Infection due to hospital-acquired colonization is different from community acquired in clinical manifestations and antibiotics susc...
