Article Synopsis
- Oral cavity cancer (OCC) is the most common type of head and neck cancer, with limited studies suggesting that chronic irritation from factors like poor dental hygiene and ill-fitting dentures may contribute to its development, especially in non-smokers and non-drinkers.
- This scoping review analyzed existing research from several databases to assess the relationship between dental trauma and OCC, following established guidelines for systematic reviews.
- Results indicate a potential link between chronic dental trauma and OCC, particularly highlighting the risks associated with dentures and poor oral hygiene, while also noting a lack of data on the impact of gender and the specific vulnerability of women without smoking or drinking habits.
Background And Objectives: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is an incapacitating disease that frequently results in the collapse of the femoral head and secondary osteoarthritis. The diagnosis and staging of this pathology, which usually rely on imaging studies, are challenging. Currently, conventional radiography is the basis of the initial diagnostic assessment.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFOsteonecrosis of the Femoral Head (ONFH) is a disabling disease affecting up to 30,000 people yearly in the United States alone. Diagnosis and staging of this pathology are both technically and logistically challenging, usually relying on imaging studies. Even anatomopathological studies, considered the gold standard for identifying ONFH, are not exempt from problems.
