Degloving injuries of the oral cavity change the operative approach to fractures of the anterior segment of the mandible.

ABSTRACT: No report to date describes the added risk traumatic, degloving injuries of the oral cavity may pose when treating fractures of the mandible. The authors describe the oral degloving injury, characterized by separation of periosteum and soft tissue of the anterior floor of the mouth from the inner cortex of the anterior segment. Vascular anatomy of the floor of the mouth is reviewed as a prelude to a description of pathomechanics of the injury and a case report. The higher incidence of oral degloving in youth and in young adulthood and parallels in elective, orthognathic surgery are identified. When this unusual clinical presentation occurs, and when open reduction of fractures of the anterior segment is chosen, a vestibular incision is best avoided. Instead, a submental or upper neck incision is chosen for sufficient exposure to allow reduction and the application of appliances. Meticulous closure of the intraoral void is achieved using one of two techniques, depending on the level of degloving.

Non-operative management for oral cavity carcinoma: Definitive radiation therapy as a potential alternative treatment approach.

Project description:PurposeTo determine the outcomes of oral cavity squamous cell cancer (OSCC) patients treated with non-surgical approach i.e. definitive intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT).MethodsAll OSCC patients treated radically with IMRT (without primary surgery) between 2005-2014 were reviewed in a prospectively collected database. OSCC patients treated with definitive RT received concurrent chemotherapy except for early stage patients or those who declined or were unfit for chemotherapy. The 5-year local, and regional, distant control rates, disease-free, overall, and cancer-specific survival, and late toxicity were analyzed.ResultsAmong 1316 OSCC patients treated with curative-intent; 108 patients (8%) received non-operative management due to: medical inoperability (n = 14, 13%), surgical unresectability (n = 8, 7%), patient declined surgery (n = 15, 14%), attempted preservation of oral structure/function in view of required extensive surgery (n = 53, 49%) or extensive oropharyngeal involvement (n = 18, 17%). Sixty-eight (63%) were cT3-4, 38 (35%) were cN2-3, and 38 (35%) received concurrent chemotherapy. With a median follow-up of 52 months, the 5-year local, regional, distant control rate, disease-free, overall, and cancer-specific survival were 78%, 92%, 90%, 42%, 50%, and 76% respectively. Patients with cN2-3 had higher rate of 5-year distant metastasis (24% vs 3%, p = 0.001), with detrimental impact on DFS (p = 0.03) and OS (p < 0.02) on multivariable analysis. Grade ≥ 3 late toxicity was reported in 9% of patients (most common: grade 3 osteoradionecrosis in 6%).ConclusionsNon-operative management of OSCC resulted in a meaningful rate of locoregional control, and could be an alternative curative approach when primary surgery would be declined, unsuitable or unacceptably delayed.

Characterization of an anterior segment organ culture model for open globe injuries.

Project description:Open-globe injuries have poor visual outcomes and have increased in frequency. The current standard of care is inadequate, and a therapeutic is needed to stabilize the injury until an ophthalmic specialist is reached. Unfortunately, current models or test platforms for open-globe injuries are insufficient. Here, we develop and characterize an open-globe injury model using an anterior segment organ-culture platform that allows therapeutic assessment for up to 72 h post-injury. Anterior segments maintained in organ culture were kept at physiological intraocular pressure throughout, and puncture injuries were created using a novel pneumatic-powered system. This system can create high-speed, military-relevant injuries up to 4.5 mm in diameter through the cornea. From intraocular pressure readings, we confirmed a loss of pressure across the 72 h after open-globe injury. Proof-of-concept studies with a Dermabond tissue adhesive were performed to show how this model system could track therapeutic performance for 72 h. Overall, the organ-culture platform was found to be a suitable next step towards modeling open-globe injuries and assessing wound closure over the critical 72 h post-injury. With improved models such as this, novel biomaterial therapeutics development can be accelerated, improving care, and, thus, improving the prognosis for the patients.

Pars-plana fluid aspiration for positive vitreous cavity pressure in anterior segment surgeries.

Project description:Positive vitreous pressure due to misdirection of aqueous or choroidal effusion leads to shallowing of the anterior chamber (AC) before or during anterior segment surgeries. This shallow AC if not addressed makes surgery difficult and increases the risk of surgical complications. Methods to prevent and manage this condition described in literature are not without problems. We describe a minimally invasive technique of passing a 30G needle through the pars-plana to aspirate misdirected fluid from vitreous cavity either as a prophylaxis just before surgery or during it, thereby decreasing positive vitreous pressure. This technique, used in 12 eyes, seems to be effective in patients with angle-closure glaucoma, malignant glaucoma, and per-operative sudden increase in vitreous pressure during surgery. Small-incision surgeries are ideally suited for this procedure. This minimally invasive technique is simple to perform and complications are unlikely to be more than what is seen with intravitreal injections.

Simplified Technique to Change the Endotracheal Tube from Nasal to Oral Cavity.

Project description:We introduce modified nasal to oral tube switch technique for modified alar cinching to prevent alar flare after orthognathic and nasal corrective surgeries. The technique is beneficial to prevent alar flare. Modified alar base cinching is effective in patients with modified tube switch technique. It increased positive results. The technique of tube switch is effective in prevention of alar flare. We suggest multi center randomized studies to know the technical difficulties of tube switch for cinching.

Postoperative change in lateral rectus muscle insertion measured by anterior segment optical coherence tomography.

Project description:AimsThe aims of this study were to investigate the longitudinal change in lateral rectus (LR) muscle insertion after recession surgery, and to evaluate a relationship between insertion distance and postoperative amount of deviation.MethodsWe recruited 31 patients who underwent primary LR recession surgery with normal anterior segment structures. An AS-OCT scan of the LR muscle was performed at every visit. Data on sex, age, degree of deviation (prism diopter), and spur-LR insertion distance using AS-OCT were collected at preoperatively and postoperative months 1, 3, and 6. Spur-LR insertion was defined as the shortest distance between the insertion of the LR muscle and the scleral spur was measured using the caliper function in the AS-OCT software.ResultsThe mean distance of spur-LR insertion measured with AS-OCT was 5.5±0.7?mm preoperatively, and 11.1±0.9?mm at 1 month, 11.5±0.8?mm at 3 months, and 11.0±0.7?mm at 6 months postoperatively. There were significant differences in spur-LR insertion between postoperative 1 and 3 months, and between 3 and 6 months (generalized estimating equation, all P<0.001). The overall spur-LR insertion measurement has a significantly negative correlation with postoperative amount of deviation (Pearson's correlation, P=0.035, r=-0.218).ConclusionsAS-OCT is a useful instrument for understanding postoperative changes in EOM after tissue swelling subsides.
