Anaphylactic Reaction Induced by Diclofenac: A Case Report / Oral Science International

An anaphylactic reaction is a most severe immune-mediated reaction. Diclofenac is a widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) derivative of phenylacetic acid, and continues to be routinely prescribed. We report a case of an anaphylactic reaction induced by oral diclofenac.

Trigeminovagal Reflex Caused by Stimulation of the Mandibular Division of the Trigeminal Nerve under General Anesthesia / Oral Science International

Although general anesthesia reportedly prevents TVR, it should be part of the differential diagnosis in all cases of unexplained sinus arrest during oral and maxillofacial surgery.
