Surgical Correction of Post-traumatic Residual Deformity of the Mandible: A Case Report.

Mandibular fractures are the most common trauma cases that we often come across in our day-to-day practice of oral and maxillofacial surgery. Various factors can lead to deformities and make those cases more challenging, which includes a delay in surgical treatment, resulting in non-union or malunion of the fracture site causing occlusal disturbances and functional abnormalities in the temporomandibular joint.

Cemento-Ossifying Fibroid Epulis in the Posterior Maxilla.

Cemento-ossifying fibroma is a benign fibro-osseous lesion arising from the periodontal ligament and has the potential to form cementum and bone in the periodontal ligament. Cemento-ossifying fibroma is a painless, pedunculated, or sessile, smooth exophytic growth arising attached to the gingival tissues. We present a case of cemento-ossifying fibroid epulis in the posterior maxilla attached to the interdental gingiva between the 26 and 27 region buccally in a 52-year-old female patient managed with surgical excision of the lesion, extraction of the involved teeth, curettage, and palatal obturator while under general anesthesia.

Real-World Observational Study of Glimepiride and Metformin Fixed-Dose Combination Along With Insulin in the Management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Indian Experience.

Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with a significant burden on both patients and the healthcare system. This study aimed to evaluate the demographics of patients with T2DM receiving different strengths of glimepiride and metformin combination along with insulin. This study also examined the concomitant conditions and therapies, duration of therapies, dosage titration, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, hypoglycemic events, and weight changes during the course of therapy.

The use of 3D ultrasound in comparing surgical techniques for posterior wall prolapse repair: a pilot randomised controlled trial.

The most appropriate method for repairing posterior vaginal wall prolapse is still debatable. Women with symptomatic prolapse scheduled to undergo surgical repair in the posterior compartment were randomised to standard posterior colporrhaphy (SPC) or fascial and vaginal epithelial plication (FEP). Participants were assessed with the Prolapse Quality of Life (P-QOL) questionnaire, pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POP-Q) examination and three-dimensional ultrasound (3D US) prior to surgery and 6 months postoperatively.
