Aim: Bernard-Soulier syndrome (BSS) is an inherited bleeding disorder characterized by macroplatelets and thrombocytopenia, prolonged bleeding time, and a prevalence of less than 1 in 1,000,000. In view of the recognition of the risk of bleeding and the management of daily surgical practice in these patients, adequate strategies are necessary to provide the safest care. This article aims to perform an integrative review of the literature on the management of invasive procedures in the oral cavity of individuals with BSS.
Method: The PubMed/Medline and LILACS databases were searched using Boolean operators related to BSS, bleeding disorders, and oral care.
Results: As a result, only five articles with the main theme were included: one letter to the editor and four case reports, described chronologically as to date of publication, classification of the article, and medical/odontological measures taken.
Conclusion: We conclude with this review the need for adequate knowledge of surgeons regarding coagulation disorders and the need to discuss and plan procedures with the hematology team, as well as the importance of the notion of management of possible complications resulting from invasive treatments in the oral cavity of patients with BSS.

Statement Of Problem: Harmony between prostheses and periodontal tissues is essential. The presence of a fixed prosthesis has been reported to increase the risk of periodontal lesion onset in abutment teeth and to affect longevity. However, studies comparing the supragingival plaque biofilm on fixed prostheses and natural teeth are lacking.

Plastic pollution in aquatic ecosystems has become a critical global environmental challenge, threatening biodiversity, water quality, and human health. This study investigates macroplastics distribution and characterization in the highly polluted Klang River, Malaysia, and proposes a protocol to compute total macroplastic yield in the river basin. A total of 240 macroplastic items were collected over a 20-km stretch from the river mouth inland, with an average of 0.

Introduction: Accessory spleens are a common anatomical variant, consisting of ectopic splenic tissue present in different locations in the peritoneal cavity. Typically asymptomatic, the presence of these tissue grows to be of clinical importance when complicated by infarction, rupture, or torsion.
Presentation Of Case: We report the case of a 36-year-old female that presented to the Emergency Department for diffuse abdominal pain and was found to have a partially ruptured splenule secondary to a venous infarct on abdominal computed tomography scan.
