FUNCTIONAL STATE OF THE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM AFTER UNILATERAL OOPHORECTOMY.

Aim Of The Study: To evaluate the functional state of the reproductive system following unilateral oophorectomy (UO).

Materials And Methods: Forty-three patients (aged 7 to 38 years) who underwent unilateral oophorectomy were divided into three groups based on their age at the time of surgery: Group I (7-15 years), Group II (16-30 years), and Group III (30-38 years). The functional state of the reproductive system was assessed 3 months and 1 year after the procedure.

The influence of COVID-19 on temporo-mandibular disorders.

Temporomandibular disorders are multi-factorial conditions affected by psychological, biomechanical, and neuromuscular factors. Stress and anxiety experienced during the pandemic are capable of influencing and aggravating temporomandibular disorders and orofacial pain. The study aimed to analyze whether the coronavirus infection can directly affect these diseases.

Progression of primarily untreated desomorphine drug induced jaw osteonecrosis: A case report.

Desomorphine is a composite of the self-made illicit drug "krokodil", which is popular in Eastern Europe and other parts of the world. It causes toxic damage of different organs including bones. In this paper, a clinical portrait of the patient with drug-induced osteonecrosis of mandible who refused surgical treatment in the early stages of the disease, is presented.

Mesenchymal stem cell transplantation attenuates growth of chemotherapy treated oral squamous cell carcinoma in an animal model.

Background: Recent studies have demonstrated mesenchymal stem cell migration toward tumor locations. When applied locally, MSCs interact with the locally residing host cells. The mechanisms behind this are still unclear.

NEW METHOD OF BONE AUGMENTATION DU-RING DENTAL IMPLANTATION IN LAB ANIMALS.

The success of surgical treatment of maxillo-facial bone defects depends on bone regeneration ability. Bone volume can be restored by surgical implantation of various biomaterials, which have ability either to accomplish mechanically the function of bone or to produce the induction effect on bone regeneration process. Latest advancements in tissue engineering are enabling to find new materials with significantly less disadvantages than the currently used osteoplastic materials.
