introduction cutaneous metaplastic synovial cyst (cmsc) is a rare cutaneous lesion characterized by a tender subcutaneous nodule, which usually occurs at the site of previous surgical or local trauma. histologically, the lesion includes a cystic structure with villous-like projections and a lining mimicking hyperplastic synovium. case presentation we reported the first case of cmsc which develo...

OBJECTIVE To determine patient factors and fracture morphology of dogs presented with mandibular fractures to a small animal referral centre in South Africa. METHODS Patient data on age, sex, breed and aetiology of dogs with mandibular fractures were recorded. The fractures were classified according to the anatomical location, displacement, fracture type, fracture line direction, periodontal ...

Introduction: Mandible fractures are common injuries in the facial bones. It has a varied etiology, especially automobile accidents, bicycle accidents, motorcycle accidents and assaults. Objective: This study aims to illustrate a case of a patient with bilateral atrophic mandibular fractures treated surgically. Clinical case: male patient, 48 years old, victim an accident at work causing bilate...

The treatment of mandibular fractures has been in a constant state of evolution over the past few decades. The most significant advancements related to the management of fractures of the man‐ dible are based on specific technical refinements in the methods of internal fixation. Also there is improvement in the knowledge of anatomy, pathophysiology, pharmacology and biomaterial science which inf...

Abstract The prevalence of mandibular fracture is relatively lower in the pediatric population compared to adults. The treatment of these fractures is more challenging for oral and maxillofacial surgeons due to the concerns regarding mandible growth and the presence of developing tooth buds. According to the literature, conventional methods (e.g., soft diets or closed red...

PURPOSE The use of a 2.0-mm locking plate system was evaluated in mandibular surgery. PATIENTS AND METHODS 53 patients (42 male, 11 female) with a total of 56 mandibular fractures were treated with a 2.0-mm mini-locking-plate system and retrospectively examined. Gender, age, cause of fracture, surgical access, classification of fractures, osteosynthesis, postsurgical findings and complication...

BACKGROUND Maxillofacial trauma is very frequent and associated with a high incidence of mandibular fractures. Although there is universal agreement as to the treatment goals and basic therapeutic principles of reduction and stabilization, a variety of currently accepted treatment modalities indicate a lack of consensus. The authors evaluate the incidence, etiology, management and complications...

Purpose: This study aimed to determine the patterns associated with adult mandibular fractures from a Level-I trauma center in southern Taiwan. Methods: The data of adult trauma patients admitted between 1 January 2009 and 31 December 2014 were retrieved from the Trauma Registry System and retrospectively reviewed. Fracture site and cause of injury were categorized into groups for comparison, a...

Mandible Fractures account for 5% of all facial fractures. The most common mandible fractures are those in the condylar region followed by angle and then body A good thing about Mandibular children comparison to adults is that their embedded tooth buds hold fragments like a glue. Also, neck which short thick tends resist fracture therefore majority un-displaced type. purpose present case series...

BACKGROUND Many novel approaches to mandibular condyle fracture have been reported, but there is a relative lack of reports on the Risdon approach. In this study, the feasibility of the Risdon approach for condylar neck and subcondylar fractures of the mandible is demonstrated. METHODS A review of patients with mandibular condylar neck and subcondylar fractures was performed from March 2008 t...
