Displasia cemento-óssea florida: relato de dois casos tratados por diferentes abordagen / Florid cemento-osseous dysplasia: report of two cases treated with different approaches

Objetivo: relatar dois casos de displasia cemento-óssea florida, descrevendo a evolução clínico-radiográfica ao longo de 5 anos em um paciente assintomático e a abordagem cirúrgica em um caso sintomático. Relato de caso 1: paciente, melanoderma, sexo feminino, 56 anos de idade, encaminhada ao Serviço de Cirurgia Bucomaxilofacial da Universidade Federal da Bahia, por cirurgião-dentista clínico que notou alterações imagiológicas em radiografia panorâmica de rotina. Apesar da importante extensão da lesão em maxila e mandíbula, não havia qualquer sintoma ou sinal clínico de infecção. A paciente foi acompanhada durante 5 anos, com exames de imagem bianuais e medidas clínicas profiláticas. Relato de caso 2: paciente, melanoderma, sexo feminino, 57 anos, apresentou-se ao ambulatório de cirurgia queixando-se de atraso em cicatrização após remoção de um dente. A radiografia panorâmica e a tomografia computadorizada, em conjunto com dados clínicos, permitiram o diagnóstico de displasia cemento-óssea florida com infecção secundária. A paciente foi abordada por meio de osteotomia em região do defeito em mandíbula. A análise microscópica do espécime obtido confirmou a alteração displásica cementoide. Os sinais e sintomas regrediram e a paciente segue em acompanhamento. Considerações finais: a displasia cemento-óssea florida, portanto, é uma doença pouco frequente, cujas manifestações podem demandar diferentes abordagens. É importante o domínio clínico do cirurgião-dentista, uma vez que o diagnóstico equivocado pode guiar a escolhas terapêuticas com resultados insatisfatórios. (AU)

Objective: the objective of this article is to report two cases of florid cemento-osseous dysplasia describing the clinical-radiographic evolution over 5 years in an asymptomatic patient and the surgical approach in a symptomatic one. Case report 1: patient, melanoderma, female, 56 years old, referred to the service by a clinical Dentist who noticed imaging alterations in a routine panoramic radiography. Despite the important extension of the maxillary and mandibular lesion, there was no clinical sign or symptom of infection. The patient has been followed for 5 years with biannual imaging exams and prophylactic clinical measures. Case report 2: patient, melanoderma, female, 57 years old, presented to the surgery outpatient complaining of delay in healing after removal of a tooth. Panoramic X-ray and Computed Tomography together with clinical data allowed the diagnosis of florid cemento-osseous dysplasia with secondary infection. The patient was approached through osteotomy in the region of the mandible defect. The microscopic analysis of the specimen confirmed the dysplastic cementenoid alteration. Signs and symptoms regressed and the patient is in follow up. Final considerations: florida cementoosseous dysplasia is an infrequent disease, whose manifestations may require different approaches. The clinical domain of the Dentist is important, since misdiagnosis can lead to therapeutic choices with unsatisfactory results. (AU)

Introdução: os bisfosfonatos são um grupo de medicamentos utilizados no tratamento de doenças osteolíticas, tais como mieloma múltiplo, osteoporose e doença de Paget. Uma complicação tardia dessa medicação é a osteonecrose em ossos maxilares. Esta é definida como desenvolvimento de osso necrótico na cavidade bucal de paciente em tratamento atual ou prévio com bisfosfonato, após sofrer algum procedimento cirúrgico bucal invasivo, sem ter realizado radioterapia. Objetivo: descrever, por meio de relatos de casos, a opção de técnica cirúrgica para tratamento da osteonecrose por bisfosfonatos. Materiais e método: em todos os casos relatados, a terapêutica cirúrgica contou com osteotomia e remoção cirúrgica do sequestro ósseo, debridamento, irrigação com soro fisiológico e sutura contínua simples. Resultados: o controle clínico pós-operatório evidenciou boa cicatrização, melhora considerável da lesão e reepitelização significativa, em curto e longo período. Conclusão: os pacientes devem passar por um criterioso exame odontológico, antes do uso desses medicamentos. Nenhum tratamento cirúrgico invasivo deve ser realizado durante a terapia com esses fármacos. (AU)

Introduction: Bisphosphonates are a group of medications used to treat osteolytic diseases such as multiple myeloma, osteoporosis, and Paget's disease. A late complication of this medication is osteonecrosis in the maxillary bones. It is defined as the development of necrotic bone in the oral cavity of a patient under current or with previous treatment with bisphosphonate and subjected to some invasive oral surgical procedure without radiotherapy. Objective: This study aimed to describe, through case reports, the option of a surgical technique for the treatment of osteonecrosis with bisphosphonates. Materials and Method: In all cases reported, surgical therapy included osteotomy and surgical removal of bone sequestration, debridement, irrigation with saline solution, and simple continuous suture. Results: The postoperative clinical control revealed satisfactory healing, considerable lesion improvement, and significant short- and long-term re-epithelialization. Conclusion: Patients should be subjected to a careful dental examination before using these medications. No invasive surgical treatment should be performed during therapy with these drugs. (AU)

Descripción de las Diferentes Indicaciones del Cuerpo Adiposo de la Mejilla como Colgajo e Injerto Autólogo en Cirugía Maxilofacial. Revisión Narrativa / Buccal Fat Pad Indications as a Flap and Autologous Graft in Maxillofacial Surgery. Narrative Review

RESUMEN: Uno de los objetivos de la cirugía maxilofacial es devolver anatomía, función y estética a través de distintas técnicas quirúrgicas. Dentro de los tejidos utilizados para esto se encuentra el cuerpo adiposo de la mejilla (CAM). La gran evidencia clínica existente y el conocimiento que se tiene acerca de este tejido ha permitido poder utilizarlo como injerto o colgajo para el tratamiento de una serie de condiciones que afectan al territorio maxilofacial con buenos resultados tanto estéticos como funcionales. Describir las diferentes indicaciones que tiene el CAM como colgajo e injerto autólogo para el tratamiento de las distintas anomalías que afectan al territorio maxilofacial. Se realizó una búsqueda entre abril y junio de 2018 utilizando 3 bases de datos electrónicas: PubMed, EBSCO y Cochrane. Las palabras clave utilizadas fueron buccal fat pad, bichat's fat pad y oral surgery con la selección del término booleano AND y OR. Se seleccionaron aquellos estudios publicados entre los 2014 y 2018, de texto completo. Se seleccionaron 17 artículos de que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión; 2 revisiones sistemáticas, 8 ensayos clínicos, 6 estudios observacionales y una serie de casos. El uso del CAM como injerto y colgajo para la corrección de anomalías en el territorio maxilofacial es una técnica versátil y predecible. La totalidad de los estudios analizados avalan su uso en dicho campo. Se necesitan más estudios clínicos aleatorizados, con un mayor número de casos, seguimiento a largo plazo y parámetros a evaluar para establecer una conclusión final sobre el uso del CAM en las diversas aplicaciones de la cirugía maxilofacial.

ABSTRACT: One of the main objectives of maxillofacial surgery is to restore patient normal anatomy, function and esthetic. Among the various tissues used to achieve the above, is the buccal fat pad. Currently, there is sufficient clinical evidence and knowledge regarding this tissue type, to approve its use as graft or flap, in order to treat a number of conditions that affect the maxillofacial area. Furthermore, it has shown various esthetical as well as functional results. The purpose of this narrative review is to describe different indications of the buccal fat pad, as a flap and autologous graft in treating various maxillofacial abnormalities. A search was conducted between april and june 2018 using 3 electronic data bases: PubMed, EBSCO and Cochrane library. Key words used were buccal fat pad, Bichat's fat pad y oral surgery using Boolean terms AND/ OR. Studies published between 2014 and 2018 were selected. For the study, 17 complete text studies that met the inclusion criteria were selected; two systematic reviews, eight randomized clinical trials, six observational studies and one case series. The use of the buccal fat pad as flap and graft for correcting maxillofacial abnormalities, is a predictable and versatile technique. The total number of studies analyzed, support its use in this surgical field. In conclusion and despite these results however, there is a need for further randomized clinical trials with a greater number of cases, long term follow up, and greater parameter assessment to support the use of the buccal fat pad in maxillofacial surgery.

Effects of alveolar bone displacement with segmental osteotomy: micro-CT and histomorphometric analysis in rats

Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of segmental osteotomy on the blood vessels and osteoclasts in rats using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and histomorphometric analysis. After segmental osteotomy was performed around the maxillary first molars of 36 male Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 72), the samples were divided into a control group (no displacement), 0.5 D group (0.5 mm buccal displacement) and 1.0 D group (1.0 mm buccal displacement) (n = 24/group). At 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks after surgery, changes in the blood vessel volume were investigated using micro-CT with perfusion of radiopaque silicone rubber. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining was used for histomorphometric analysis. Two-way repeated measures analysis of variance (rmANOVA) was performed to compare the volume of blood vessels and number of TRAP-positive osteoclasts among the groups. Regarding blood vessel volume, the displacement groups had no significant effects, while the time points had significant effects (p = 0.014). The blood vessel volume at 1 week was significantly smaller than that at 2, 4, and 8 weeks (p = 0.004, p = 0.026, and p = 0.005, respectively). Regarding TRAP cell count, the displacement groups had no significant effects, while the time points had significant effects (p < 0.001). The number of TRAP-positive osteoclasts at 8 weeks was significantly smaller than that at 1, 2, and 4 weeks (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, and p = 0.002, respectively), and the count at 4 weeks was smaller than that at 1 week (p = 0.011). Therefore, a regional osteoclast-related acceleratory phenomenon was maintained until 4 weeks after surgery.
