Fesenko, Vasyl Rybak, Oleg Mastakov","doi":"10.23999/j.dtomp.2024.3.1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.23999/j.dtomp.2024.3.1","url":null,"abstract":"Each mandibular fracture is unique. It requires individual treatment solutions due to different number of fracture sites, fracture terms, level of dislocation, presence/absence of the infection, number, location, and condition of teeth, etc. Management of jaw fractures in partially edentulous arches are even more complicated and typically can involve assistance of a dental technician. Published English language literature lacks information about application of condensation silicone (C-silicone) bite block-splint with mandibulo-maxillary fixation (MMF) screws and elastics for management of bilateral mandibular fracture. This is why we present this novel technique developed by our team based on fracture treatment in a 38-year-old male partially edentulous patient. Also, we introduce a Kyiv’s Modification of the Kennedy Classification System of the partially edentulous arches useful for mandible fracture cases. The Kennedy–Kyiv Classification System considers the non-treated teeth roots as supporting locking points (temporary additional retention points) that increase the stability of the bite block-splint and decrease probability of micromovements. Moreover, it contraindicates extracting such teeth roots immediately before the block-splint fixation as extraction of such roots can provoke the alveolar osteitis upon the fracture site(s) healing and immobilization period what will increase the risk of the block removal for the treatment of osteitis. A review of published MMF techniques and appliances designed for mandible fracture treatment is performed. Multiple appliances for partially and totally edentulous mandibles are considered as well as for the dentulous jaws. The Gunning-type splints and its modifications were considered. An in-chair fabrication of C-silicone bite block-splint and its combined application with MMF screws and elastics is a novel alternative for the Gunning splint. This appliance allows to decrease the time typically required for the Gunning splints fabrication, decreases number of the involved specialists, decreases cost of treatment, and easy for performance.","PeriodicalId":481167,"journal":{"name":"Journal of diagnostics and treatment of oral and maxillofacial pathology","volume":"21 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140359090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The likelihood of such prompt life-threatening septic complications, as thrombophlebitis, pneumonia, pleurisy, etc, may be underestimated due to the small size of the local inflammation of the lip. We present a 21-year-old Caucasian female with a Staphylococcus epidermidis infection of the lower lip (furuncle) complicated by lip abscess, suppurative cheilitis glandularis, lip necrosis, septic bilateral multilobar necrotizing (destructive) pneumonia, pleurisy (pleuritis), and pulmonary insufficiency of the first degree (type I). Clinical photos of the report demonstrate all stages of the course of inflammation and treatment of the severe lower lip infection from the moment of admission. Preoperative condition, the period of formation and demarcation of necrosis, cleaning of the wound from purulent content, demonstration of fibrinous exudate (also known as fibrinous plaques), the appearance of granulations, and visualization of lip scars as of the day of discharge from the hospital (day 26) are presented. The article also includes a chest X-ray at the time of admission, on the second day, and on the seventh day of hospital stay. The report is enriched as well by three-dimensional multi-slice computed tomography (3D MSCT) images on the eighth, eighteenth, and fortieth days from the moment of admission to our hospital. 3D MSCT of the lungs is showing the areas of pulmonary tissue necrosis and the healing phase. The article contains two videos (cine images) with a duration of 21 seconds and 2 minutes 11 seconds, which demonstrate chest MSCT on the hospital day 8 and 18. The patient was discharged on the 27th day of admission. According to our English-language literature search, it's a first ever reported case of the lower lip furuncle which led such a unique combination of severe local and septic complications documented at all stages of treatment from both aspects clinical and radiological. An update of the classification of uncomplicated and complicated forms of development of furuncles (i.e., boils) and carbuncles is done and presented. More than 37 literary sources were analyzed, and their key aspects complemented our report. Articles with necrotizing fasciitis of the lips were also analyzed.","PeriodicalId":481167,"journal":{"name":"Journal of diagnostics and treatment of oral and maxillofacial pathology","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135132217","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
