We describe the experience of the Maxillofacial Surgery Service of the Gregorio Maranon University Hospital in attending the victims of the terrorist attack of 11 March, 2004 in Madrid. The most important types of cranio-maxillofacial injury treated that day, their mechanisms of production, and the organization of the department to attend a large number of patients in a short space of time are described. The outcomes of the casuistics attended in the days after the attack are described.

Periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) are difficult to treat due to biofilm formation on implant surfaces and the surrounding tissue, often requiring removal or exchange of prostheses along with long-lasting antibiotic treatment. Antiseptic irrigation during revision surgery might decrease bacterial biofilm load and thereby improve treatment success. This in vitro study investigated and compared the effect of five advanced wound irrigation solutions to reduce bacterial burden in the PJI microenvironment.
