ABSTRACT
Diabetic myonecrosis or muscle infarction (DMI), a clinicoradiological entity is an underdiagnosed complication of diabetes mellitus. It refers to spontaneous aseptic necrosis of skeletal muscles commonly of the lower limb without evidence of any large vessel disease. It presents as painful swollen limb without any external insult in patients with long-standing diabetes mellitus with other microvascular complications especially nephropathy. We present four instances of DMI in our patients who had end-stage renal disease with a varied course.
ABSTRACT
Intentional reimplantation is a procedure in which tooth extraction is performed followed by reinsertion of the extracted tooth into its own socket after performing the desired procedure. In this study, two case reports of intentional reimplantation are described and discussed as a treatment approach for broken instrument and a periapical lesion that is very near to mandibular canal in mandibular first molar. The indications for and limitations of intentional reimplantation as well as recommended literature on the subject is discussed. The present article describes two cases of intentional replantation: (1) Mandibular first molar with continuous pus discharge and (2) mandibular first molar with the fractured instrument.
