Abstract
The most common sites of bursitis are articulations, such as the elbows and knees; it rarely occurs in the head and neck or in non-articulation sites. A report of bursitis in the anterior tibial region, a nonarticulation site, during a flare-up of atopic dermatitis (AD) led us to suggest an association between atopic dermatitis and bursitis. We report the case of a 42-year-old man with severe AD and rare bursitis of the mandible, a nonarticulation site. He underwent several resections of his bursitis but repeatedly recurred. We treated him simultaneously with surgical treatment of his bursitis and treatment of his AD, and he recovered completely without recurrence. No previous reports of bursitis occurring at the same site have been reported. The cause of bursitis may be chronic irritation due to atopic dermatitis. It is speculated that bursitis and AD are related, and bursitis can occur at the site of AD, and complete cure can be expected by treating both simultaneously.
期刊介绍:
Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery founded as Mund-, Kiefer- und Gesichtschirurgie is a peer-reviewed online journal. It is designed for clinicians as well as researchers.The quarterly journal offers comprehensive coverage of new techniques, important developments and innovative ideas in oral and maxillofacial surgery and interdisciplinary aspects of cranial, facial and oral diseases and their management. The journal publishes papers of the highest scientific merit and widest possible scope on work in oral and maxillofacial surgery as well as supporting specialties. Practice-oriented articles help improve the methods used in oral and maxillofacial surgery.Every aspect of oral and maxillofacial surgery is fully covered through a range of invited review articles, clinical and research articles, technical notes, abstracts, and case reports. Specific topics are: aesthetic facial surgery, clinical pathology, computer-assisted surgery, congenital and craniofacial deformities, dentoalveolar surgery, head and neck oncology, implant dentistry, oral medicine, orthognathic surgery, reconstructive surgery, skull base surgery, TMJ and trauma.Time-limited reviewing and electronic processing allow to publish articles as fast as possible. Accepted articles are rapidly accessible online.Clinical studies submitted for publication have to include a declaration that they have been approved by an ethical committee according to the World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki 1964 (last amendment during the 52nd World Medical Association General Assembly, Edinburgh, Scotland, October 2000). Experimental animal studies have to be carried out according to the principles of laboratory animal care (NIH publication No 86-23, revised 1985).
