Dealing with vascular anomalies during radial forearm free flap harvest: report of two cases and review of the literature
Publication date: Available online 22 June 2019Source: International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial SurgeryAuthor(s): O. Breik, U. Selbong, D. Laugharne, K. JonesAbstractRadial forearm free flap reconstruction for head and neck cancer is very common, and it is widely considered a workhorse flap. Although this flap has a relatively reliable anatomy, surgeons need to be aware of possible anatomical variations and how to deal with them. This paper presents the cases of two patients who underwent...

How does bone thickness affect the split pattern of sagittal ramus osteotomy?
Publication date: Available online 22 June 2019Source: International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial SurgeryAuthor(s): G. Cunha, M.R. Oliveira, F.S. Salmen, M.F.R. Gabrielli, M.A.C. GabrielliAbstractThis study examined the influence of bone thickness on the split pattern of sagittal ramus osteotomy at 62 sites using Dolphin 3D software. Four measurements of thickness were obtained from the preoperative computed tomography scans: measurement A was made 1.5 mm above the lingula, using the coronal...

An alternative suture technique for vein diameter’s discrepancy anastomosis
Microvascular anastomosis of vessels that differ in diameter can be technically difficult and time-consuming. Difficulties with positioning may lead to kinking or compression, and bleeding at the anastomosis can be a problem. Turbulence and sluggish flow in dilated vessels can predispose to thrombosis.1

Non‐syndromic cleft lip with or without palate susceptible SNPs are associated with hyperdontia
Abstract Background Non‐syndromic supernumerary teeth (NSST) or hyperdontia may share common genetic determinants with non‐syndromic cleft lip with or without palate (NSCL/P). The aim of this study was to test the associations between five genome‐wide associated NSCL/P susceptible single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs2235371, rs7078160, rs8049367, rs4791774 and rs13041247) and the occurrence of NSST. Materials and methods 163 cases and 326 controls were recruited and their genomic...

Tongue surface model can predict radiation tongue mucositis due to intensity-modulated radiation therapy for head and neck cancer
Acute radiation tongue mucositis has a profound effect on talking and eating. We examined whether the dose–volume histogram obtained from the tongue surface model correlates with mucositis severity, and whether it is useful for predicting acute radiation tongue mucositis in patients with head and neck cancer treated with intensity-modulated radiation therapy. Thirty-six patients who received intensity-modulated radiation therapy for head and neck cancer were analysed for acute radiation tongue mucositis...

Incidence of bleeding after minor oral surgery in patients on dual antiplatelet therapy: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Bleeding is a feared complication of minor oral surgery in patients on treatment with antiplatelet agents and there is no agreed strategy regarding the cessation or not of antiplatelet treatment. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate bleeding with minor oral surgery in patients on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT), or no antiplatelet therapy (no APT). The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases were screened. Sixteen studies were...
