Pseudoaneurysm of the Lingual Artery in a Patient With Facial Trauma From Gunshot Wounds.
J Craniofac Surg
October 2024
School of Medicine, Wayne State University.
A pseudoaneurysm is an abnormal dilatation within the wall of a blood vessel due to the formation of a hematoma in the vessel wall after vessel injury. Because of the protective nature of the facial skeleton and the deep location of the lingual artery, the lingual artery pseudoaneurysm is rare. The authors report a case of a 20-year-old male who suffered multiple gunshot wounds, including to the mouth, presenting with immediate life-threatening injuries.

The new orthognathic treatment strategy of non-segmental fixation (non-fix) sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) with jaw exercise initiation on the second postoperative day, the so-called physiological positioning strategy (PPS), induces good skeletal stability with few temporomandibular joint (TMJ) symptoms after surgery in skeletal class III. This study aimed to clarify whether non-fix SSRO with modified PPS can be applied to skeletal class II. This retrospective study included skeletal class II patients who underwent non-fix SSRO to correct mandibular retrognathia.

Orthognathic surgery, a pivotal treatment for patients with significant facial aesthetic and occlusal concerns, traditionally involves a phased approach comprising preoperative orthodontics, surgery, and postoperative orthodontic treatment. However, the extended duration of conventional methods often leads to patient dissatisfaction. In response, the surgery-first approach (SFA) has emerged as an alternative, aiming to streamline treatment and reduce complexity.

Medicine (Baltimore)
December 2024
Faculty of Dentistry, PHENIKAA University, Hanoi, Vietnam.
Rationale: Orthognathic surgery cases are inherently challenging to treat with lingual appliances due to the complexities of orthodontic management and difficulties in achieving intermaxillary fixation during surgery. This challenge is further amplified in cases involving asymmetric space closure, such as those with a missing molar on one side and a premolar on the other, a scenario not yet documented in the literature. This case report presents the orthodontic-orthognathic management of an adult patient requiring space closure of asymmetric missing lower teeth.

This narrative review evaluates the literature on the management of mandibular condyle fractures in growing patients. It aims to illustrate some fundamental biological principles and to offer a series of considerations applicable to clinical practice. The discussion is based on 116 papers published in PubMed and two relevant textbooks.
