Oral Lichen Planus in Patients With Good's Syndrome: A Literature Review.

Good's syndrome is defined as the association of a thymoma with an immune deficiency. Many patients with Good's syndrome also have oral lichen planus involvement, and some authors have even considered it to be one of the clinical signs of Good's syndrome. In the literature, to our knowledge, clinical forms of oral lichen planus associated with Good's syndrome have not been described.

Oral giant cell tumor or giant cell granuloma: How to know?

Introduction: The distinction between giant cell tumors and giant cell granulomas is challenging, as both entities have overlapping diagnostic criteria, especially in oral locations. The two entities have similar clinical and radiological presentations, but they differ in their prognoses.

Objective: The main objective of this study was to list the clinical, radiological, histological, and prognostic features of maxillomandibular giant cell tumors and giant cell granulomas cases n order to assess their value as a diagnostic referral factor that may allow the distinction between maxillo-mandibular giant cell granuloma and giant cell tumor.

Educational interventions to integrate surgical staff within medical units during the COVID-19 pandemic: EDUCOVID survey.

Background: The SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic required a rapid surge of healthcare capacity to face a growing number of critically ill patients. For this reason, a support reserve of physicians, including surgeons, were required to be reassigned to offer support.

Objective: To realize a survey on the educational programs deployed (face-to-face or e-learning focusing on infective area, basic gestures, COVID clinical management and intensive care medicine), and their impact on behavior change (Kirkpatrick 3) of the target population of surgeons, measured on a five modalities Likert scale.

[Oral cavity as a target and a marker of environmental exposures: diseases diagnosed during adulthood].

The oral cavity is one of the main route for environmental contaminations associated to many chronic diseases via alimentation, medications and respiration. Other factors may also impact the oral environment, some of them are endogenous, like microbiota, hormones and saliva, and others are exogenous, like dental materials and pathogens.
