(SEMINAR) LESSON Academic Discipline METHODICAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR INDIVIDUAL WORK OF STUDENTS DURING PREPARATION TO PRACTICAL (SEMINAR) LESSON Academic discipline Surgical stomatology Module № 6 Topic of the lesson №15 Gunshot and non-gunshot damage of upper and lower jaws. Orthopedic and surgical treatments. Course V Faculty International (Stomatological) Poltava 1. Relevance of the topic: One of the important problems of modern oral surgery there are a clinic, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of damage to the maxillofacial region, particularly fractures of the lower jaw, which is the highest percentage of all the facial and neck injuries in peacetime. This is associated with a significant increase in the frequency of road accidents, domestic trauma, the use of different types of knives and the growth of street crime and tensions in society. The study of the subject will allow the future doctor is clearly focused on issues clinics, diagnostic methods of first aid to victims the trauma of the lower jaw, in the subsequent practice will avoid many complications primarily related to improper conduct of the doctors in the early stages of providing assistance (late diagnosis, poor and part-time emergency aid). 2.

THE CONTENT OF THE TOPIC: Complete fractures of the mandible can be divided according to their anatomical location into seven main types. These are: 1. Condylar 2. Coronoid 3. Ramus 4. Angle 5. Body (molar and premolar areas) 6. Symphysis and parasymphysis 7. Multiple and comminuted fractures Fractures in each of these situations have clearly denned signs and symptoms which can be readily elicited even in cases of multiple injury. Condylar fractures These are the most common fractures of the mandible and are the ones most commonly missed on clinical examination. Condylar fractures may be unilateral or bilateral and they may either involve the joint compartment as intracapsular fractures or the condylar neck when they are regarded as extracapsular. The latter are the more common. The extracapsular fracture may exist with or without dislocation of the condylar head, and the upper fragment may either remain angulated on the lower portion of the ramus or be displaced medially or laterally. The commonest displacement is antero-medial owing to the direction of pull of the lateral pterygoid muscle, which is attached to the antero-medial aspect of the condylar head and also to the meniscus of the temporo-mandibular joint. In the immediate post-traumatic phase most fractures in the condylar region exhibit similar signs and symptoms. Unilateral condylar fractures Inspection Any movement of the lower jaw is likely to be restricted and painful. There is often swelling over the temporo-mandibular joint area and there may be haemorrhage from the ear on that side. Bleeding from the ear results from laceration of the anterior wall of the external auditory meatus, caused by violent movement of the condylar head against the skin in this region. In the normal subject the close relationship of the condyle to the skin of the external auditory meatus can be appreciated if the little finger is placed within the external ear and the jaw moved. It is important to distinguish bleeding originating in the external auditory canal from the more serious middle ear haemorrhage. The latter signifies a fracture of the petrous temporal bone and may be accompanied by cerebrospinal otorrhoea. In all cases of suspected condylar fracture the ear should be examined carefully with an otoscope. The appearance may be extremely confusing even to an experienced maxillofacial surgeon, and there should be no hesitation in asking the opinion of an otologist in these circumstances. The haematoma surrounding a fractured condyle may track downwards and backwards below the external auditory canal. This gives rise to ecchymosis of the skin just below the mastoid process on the same side. This particular physical sign also occurs with fractures of the base of the skull, when it is known as «Battle's sign». It is vital not to confuse the aetiology when an ecchymosis at this site is discovered On the very rare occasion when the condylar head is impacted through the glenoid fossa, the mandible will be locked and middle ear bleeding may present externally. If the condylar head is dislocated medially and all oedema has subsided due to passage of time, it may be possible to observe a characteristic hollow over the region of the condylar head, but in the immediate post-traumatic phase this physical sign is obscured by oedema. Palpation In the recently injured patient there is invariably tenderness over the condylar area. When post-traumatic oedema is present it is difficult to palpate the condylar head and what is believed to be the condylar head may, in fact, be that portion of the condylar neck continuous with the lower portion of the ramus. It may be possible to determine whether the condylar head is displaced from the glenoid fossa by palpation within the external auditory meatus. Standing in front of the patient both little fingers can be hooked into each external auditory meatus and the position and movement of each condylar head compared. Intra-oral. Displacement of the condyle from the fossa or over-riding of the fractured condylar neck shortens the ramus on that side and produces gagging of the occlusion on the ipsilateral molar teeth. The mandible deviates on opening towards the side of the fracture and there is usually painful limitation of protrusion and lateral excursion to the opposite side. Bilateral condylar fractures The signs and symptoms already mentioned for the unilateral fracture may be present on both sides. Overall mandibular movement is usually more restricted than is the case with a unilateral fracture. Intra-orally It only requires one condyle to be displaced with shortening of the ramus to lead to premature contact of the posterior teeth on the side of injury. Accordingly derangement of the occlusion is more usual with bilateral than with unilateral condylar fractures. Intracapsular fractures produce little if any shortening and the occlusion is often found to be normal. If both fractures have resulted in displacement of the condyles from the glenoid fossa or overriding of the fractured bone ends, an anterior open bite is found to be present. In all cases of bilateral fracture there is pain and limitation of opening with restricted protrusion and lateral excursions. Bilateral condylar fractures are frequently associated with fracture of the symphysis or parasymphysis and these areas should always be carefully examined. Fracture of the coronoid process This is a rare fracture which is usually considered to result from reflex contraction of the powerful anterior fibres of the temporalis muscle. The fracture can be caused by direct trauma to the ramus but is rarely in isolation in these circumstances. If the tip of the coronoid process is detached, the fragment is pulled upwards towards the infratemporal fossa by the temporalis muscle. The coronoid process is sometimes fractured during operations on large cysts of the ramus. This is a difficult fracture to diagnose clinically but there may be tenderness over the anterior part of the ramus and a tell-tale haematoma.

Purpose was the determination of the role of the connective tissues dysplastic disorders for remodeling processes of the anterior chest wall in children with PE in post- operative periods. Investigation performed on 40 children, who underwent operative treatment by the D. Nuss procedure in Clinic of SRITO RUz, with PE. Genetic assessment was carried out by the T. Milkovska-Dmitrova and A. Karakeshev classification (1985). Good results were obtained in 35 cases in the nearest postoperative periods, 5 cases were with the severe pain and in long-term periods was occurred the PC deformity in 2 cases, secondary atypical deformation in 1, the relapse of PE till I degree in 1 and in 1 case was saved the neuralgic pain. The connective tissues dysplasia is a congenital character genesis, characterized by metabolic disorders in the stroma tissues and several enzymopathy. The osseo-cartilaginous structural system growth processes were not behavioral in the necessary age norm of locomotors apparatus and with the delaying of ossification processes also in the adolescent's age and the sterno-costal complex became most pliable. These changes complicated the correction method of PE, extended the period of immobilization. It is hard to determine the outcome operative results of the patients with severe degrees of conjunctive tissues dysplasia.

  • Correlation Between Hip Osteoarthritis and Proximal Femoral Fracture Site: Could It Be Protective for Intracapsular Neck Fractures? a Retrospective Study on 320 Cases
    Osteoporosis International (2019) 30:1591–1596 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00198-019-05015-5 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Correlation between hip osteoarthritis and proximal femoral fracture site: could it be protective for intracapsular neck fractures? A retrospective study on 320 cases Tommaso Maluta1 & Giovanna Toso1 & Stefano Negri1 & Elena Manuela Samaila1 & Bruno Magnan1 Received: 24 February 2019 /Accepted: 13 May 2019 /Published online: 8 June 2019 # International Osteoporosis Foundation and National Osteoporosis Foundation 2019 Abstract Summary Proximal femoral fractures affect elderly people, showing high morbidity and mortality incidence resulting in a major economic burden on national healthcare systems. Understanding the causes of these injuries is of paramount importance to prevent the serious consequences of these fractures. Introduction Hip osteoarthritis and proximal femoral fractures mainly affect elderly patients. Several authors, in their studies, tried to document a correlation between these conditions, but the results are conflicting. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between hip osteoarthritis and the fracture site. Secondly, to evaluate if the grade of osteoarthritis could influence the fracture pattern. Methods A retrospective study on 320 patients admitted for hip fracture between June 2015 and December 2016 was carried on. Radiographic images were evaluated, assessing the type of fracture, presence and grade of osteoarthritis according to Kellgren- Lawrence and Tönnis classifications, and their correlations. Results Osteoarthritis was found to affect the fracture site showing a higher prevalence among subjects with extracapsular than those with intracapsular fractures (p < 0.00001). Patients with radiographic signs of arthritis had mainly trochanteric fracture. Conversely, patients without arthritis more frequently presented a femoral neck fracture.

There is some evidence that poorly addressed dehydration in the initial period of injury and prior to surgery may contribute to increased mortality in the early days I - Immobilisation of the fracture using simple means such as padding and triangular bandages and where necessary in association with Vacuum mattresses is all that is required. In addition prevention of chilling is also a key initiative. P - Pain management that is sub-optimal increases mortality and morbidity. In a number of studies effective pre-hospital pain management has been shown to be in the order of 50%. We need to put more emphasis on the role of analgesia for these patients. NSAID medications are relatively contra-indicated. S - Specific facilities that can offer prompt intervention to repair the fractures offer these patients the best level of care. Transporting patients to an ED that cannot offer surgical management necessitates a secondary transfer and delays care. This is not to the benefit of the patient and places a demand on the Ambulance Service to provide secondary transport, possibly delaying definitive care further.
