ABSTRACT

3D printed models are often very similar in shape and can be inadvertently switched if the related patient is not identified correctly. Here, we present a free and simple method to imprint letters and numbers in a 3D model. CT scan data were used to create an STL file of a patient's mandible. We then used Blender software to modify it with numbers and letters. We chose to imprint a series of four letters and numbers on our 3D models. We chose representative letters and numbers of the Latin alphabet. Six models were printed with an Up plus 2 - easy 120 3D printer with different character sizes and shape to evaluate the readability. All models were printed without any failures. Regarding readability, 2 mistakes were made among ten readers. The favourite extrusion depth was 3 mm, and the largest model was preferred. Identification can be done at different times and by different means, but identifying the 3D model during its creation is safer. Moreover these identified 3D models could be saved in the digital patient medical file. The identification location should take into consideration the future indication of the 3D printed medical model. We recommend that 3D identification should be done using at least 7.5mm high, with a depth of 3mm. Our method allows easy, fast and free 3D text. This 3D text identification printing method may be a first step towards the legal use of 3D printed models made within the hospital.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The risk of metastasizing in axillary lymph node is occasional in the head and neck cancers. This pattern of spread is difficult to explain and totally unpredictable even for these lymphophilic cancers. OBSERVATION: A 72-year-old patient benefited, 11 years ago, of surgical oncology care associated with adjuvant radiotherapy for squamous cell carcinoma of the left floor of the mouth (pT4 pN2b M0). He presented a second primary malignancy at the right oropharyngeal level. Pet CT revealed a right infraclinic axillary metastasis. The metastatic origin was confirmed by pathological analysis. DISCUSSION: The current management of head and neck cancers is based on the histological pattern of infiltration, the size of the primary tumor and the pattern of metastasizing lymph nodes and potential distant spreading. Current tests allow us to diagnose most distant metastases even outside the usual area of lymphatic drainage. Involvement of axillary lymph node, probably through retrograde lymphatic spreading is not so rare in recurrences of oropharyngeal cancer (T3-T4, N2…) as we have observed in the literature. In this review, we raise some degree of similarity between such oncological progression and factors related to this aberrant spreading.

ABSTRACT

Adenotonsillar hypertrophy is a common paediatric/otolaryngological disorder that may be associated with secondary growth or facial growth impairment, sleep disturbances, neurocognitive deficits, or smell loss. Surgical removal of the hypertrophic tissue eliminates the mechanical obstacle of the airways and is therefore curative in most cases. The purpose of the present review is to outline the impact of adenotonsillar hypertrophy and adenotonsillectomy on growth, facial growth, sleep, behaviour and smell.

ABSTRACT

Isolated marginal facial nerve paresis after TMJ discopexy: a case report. This is the first report of a transient, isolated marginal facial nerve paresis after temporomandibular joint arthrotomy. The paresis seems to have resulted from a crush lesion by Backhaus forceps, placed transcutaneously during the operation to distract the intra-articular space.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether orthodontic loading has an effect on miniplate stability and bone mineral density (BMD) around the screws supporting those miniplates. SETTING AND SAMPLE POPULATION: Two miniplates were inserted in each jaw quadrant of 10 dogs. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Two weeks later, coil springs were placed between the miniplates of one upper quadrant and between those of the contralateral lower quadrant. The other miniplates remained non-loaded. The dogs were sacrificed 7 or 29 weeks after surgery, and the jaws were scanned with peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography (pQCT) to assess BMD. RESULTS: The success rate was not significantly different for the loaded and the non-loaded miniplates, but was significantly higher for the maxillary compared to the mandibular ones. Mobility, associated with local inflammation, most often occurred during the transition between primary and secondary stability. pQCT showed higher BMD around mandibular vs. maxillary screws, without significant difference between loaded and non-loaded ones. Furthermore, load direction did not lead to any significant difference in BMD. CONCLUSION: Miniplate stability and BMD of the adjacent bone did not appear to depend significantly on orthodontic loading, but rather on the receptor site anatomy.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this animal study were to evaluate if orthodontic loading has an impact on osseointegration of screws supporting miniplates, and to describe the histological components of the bone-screw interface. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eighty orthodontic miniplates were placed in the jaws of 10 dogs. After 2 weeks, a 125 g force was applied between the miniplates of one upper quadrant of each dog and between those of the controlateral lower quadrant. The others, nonloaded miniplates, were considered as controls. Five dogs were sacrificed 7 weeks after implantation and the remaining five dogs after 29 weeks [Short Term (ST) and Long Term (LT) groups, respectively]. Fluorochromes were injected at implantation and at sacrifice. Jaw quadrants were dissected, embedded, cut into undecalcified transverse sections through the screws and finally submitted to microradiographic analysis to allow assessment of bone-implant contact (BIC) and bone volume/total volume (BV/TV). The sections were observed under UV light and stained in order to examine them under ordinary light. RESULTS: Osseointegration occurred around 90/160 screws and consisted mainly in limited repair and remodelling processes of lamellar bone, without inflammation. Wide variations were observed in BIC and BV/TV, but without any significant difference, neither between the loaded and the nonloaded screws, nor according to the direction of load, whereas they were significantly higher in the LT than in the ST group. Nonosseointegrated screws were surrounded by fibrous tissue. Osteoblastic activity, when present in front of these screws, was not sufficient to achieve stability. CONCLUSIONS: Osseointegration underlying orthodontic anchorage was not affected by loading. BIC increased with time and varied according to implantation site. Particularly the tight-fitting screw insertion appeared crucial in determining the appropriate bone healing response.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetics, biodistribution and metabolism of [(18)F]EF3, a labelled 2-nitroimidazole hypoxia marker, in ten patients with head and neck cancer. METHODS: [(18)F]EF3 was administered intravenously (group 1, n=5, mean dose+/-SD: 324+/-108 MBq; group 2, n=5, mean dose+/-SD: 1,134+/-138 MBq) to patients (nine male, one female). Blood and urine samples and whole-body PET scans were obtained from 20 s to 4-6 h. Radioactivity was determined in several regions of interest. RESULTS: No serious adverse event was reported. [(18)F]EF3 concentration in blood exhibited a bi-exponential decline. [(18)F]EF3 was mainly eliminated in the urine. By 7 h 40 min after injection, 53+/-14% of the injected dose was collected in the urine. There was no significant difference between the low- and high-dose groups. A progressive accumulation occurred also in the colon, indicating a hepatobiliary excretion. Except in organs involved in the elimination of [(18)F]EF3, the tumour-to-organ ratio remained close to or below unity in muscle, lungs, heart and brain at various times after injection. In one patient, tumour hypoxia was observed with a tumour-to-blood ratio ranging from 1.4 to 1.9. Last, [(18)F]EF3 remained very stable after injection, with percentage of native tracer above 87% in the serum and 84% in the urine. CONCLUSION: Administration of [(18)F]EF3 in head and neck cancer patients is feasible and safe. Uptake and retention in tumour was observed, indicating the presence of hypoxia.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Patient's age is known to have no influence on either treatment or prognosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma. OBSERVATION: A 94-year old female patient, with a squamous cell carcinoma of the floor of the mouth, stage pT1pN0cM0, was classically treated by surgical tumor resection, selective neck dissection and immediate surgical reconstruction with a vascularized radial flap. DISCUSSION: This clinical case, which could be a record taking into account the patient's advanced age, confirms that treatment decision of oral squamous cell carcinoma must not be influenced by age. Only some age-related comorbidities must be considered.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: We present an original three-dimensional cephalometric analysis based on a transformation of a classical two dimensional topological cephalometry. METHODS: To validate the three-dimensional cephalometric CT based concept we systematically compared the alignments of anatomic structures. We used digital lateral radiography to perform the classical two-dimensional cephalometry, and a three-dimensional CT surface model for the three-dimensional cephalometry. RESULTS: Diagnoses based on both two-dimensional and three-dimensional analyses were adequate, but the three-dimensional analysis gave more information such as the possibility of comparing the right and left side of the skull. Also the anatomic structures were not superimposed which improved the visibility of the reference landmarks. CONCLUSION: We demonstrated that three-dimensional analysis gives the same results as two-dimensional analysis using the same skull. We also present possible applications of the method.

ABSTRACT

In the framework of the preclinical validation of the hypoxic tracer [(18)F]EF3, a comparison was performed between uptake of [(18)F]EF3 and EF5 adducts detected by immunofluorescence in MCa-4, FSA, FSAII, Sa-NH and NFSA tumour-bearing mice. Mice were allowed to breath carbogen (5% CO(2), 95% O(2)), 21% oxygen or 10% oxygen. A significant correlation (r (2)=0.57; p<0.01) was found between the [(18)F]EF3 tumour-to-muscle ratio and the fluorescence intensity of EF5.

ABSTRACT

The management of benign and malignant neoplasms of the salivary glands requires precise knowledge of tumor histogenesis and classification as well as surgical skills. Pleomorphic adenoma and Whartin's tumor are the most frequent tumors in parotid glands while the probability for malignant tumors is higher in other glands, especially in sublingual and minor salivary glands. Those malignant salivary glands tumors are rare and necessitate multidisciplinar staging and management in close collaboration with the pathologist and the radiation oncologist.

ABSTRACT

The 2-nitroimidazole derivative 2-(2-nitroimidazol-1-yl)- N-(3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)acetamide (EF3) is a marker which forms adducts into hypoxic cells. Radiosynthesis of [(18)F]EF3 was recently performed by our group. Our aim was to study the pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, metabolism and specificity for hypoxia of [(18)F]EF3. MCa-4, SCC VII, NFSA, FSA, FSA II or Sa-NH tumour-bearing C3H mice were injected intravenously with [(18)F]EF3 and allowed to breathe air, 10% O(2) or carbogen until sacrifice 5-770 min after injection. Radioactivity was measured ex vivo in various organs, including urine and faeces. Selected organs were additionally processed to measure tracer metabolites with high-performance liquid chromatography. The half-life in blood was 73.9 min. [(18)F]EF3 was eliminated mainly via the kidneys, with 75% of the injected activity found in the urine by 12 h 50 min. The biodistribution was fast and homogeneous except in the brain and the bone, where it was significantly lower, and in the liver and the kidney, where it was significantly higher. In most organs, the exceptions being the gastrointestinal and urinary tract, tissue-to-blood ratios were below or close to unity. In tumours, a relative accumulation of the tracer was observed with time, which, at 220 min after injection, depended on tumour strain and oxygenation conditions, i.e. 10% O(2) significantly increased the tumour-to-muscle ratio whereas carbogen decreased it. [(18)F]EF3 was rapidly metabolised in the kidney and the liver. [(18)F]EF3 is a promising tracer for detection of tumour hypoxia. A phase I study in head and neck cancer patients is in progress at our institution.

ABSTRACT

This paper reviews the literature about the most relevant complications in daily orthognathic surgery. Although orthognathic surgery has proven to be relatively safe, patients who undergo such maxillofacial orthopaedic surgery must be aware of the side effects of this combined treatment. Immediate life-threatening complications are very rare. They can in most cases be avoided by good anaesthetic and surgical techniques and adequate postoperative care. The most frequently encountered perioperative problem in maxillary surgery is excessive blood loss, whilst subjective neurosensory disturbance is the most frequent complication in mandibular surgery. Good co-operation between orthodontist and surgeon is essential to prevent most immediate and late postoperative problems and nearly all unsatisfactory results.

ABSTRACT

Encapsulation of DNA in a new non-cationic multilamellar vector (Spherulites), composed of phosphatidylcholine, cholesterol and polyoxyethylene alcohol, is described here for the first time. Spherulites entrapping DNA were prepared by shearing a phospholipid lyotropic lamellar phase, using a recently discovered method. The average diameter of these vesicles ranges around 300 nm, and can be adjusted depending on the conditions of the process. The formulation did not result in cytotoxicity for the human cells and could be used as a DNA delivery system. More emphasis is brought to the role of condensing agents like histones on the encapsulation yield, which has been studied using radiolabelled DNA. It is shown that use of histones (histone to DNA ratio of 0.4) can increase significantly the encapsulation of DNA, thus improving the transfection efficiency. Transfection experiments were done with success using the beta-galactoside reporter gene on human primary cells (human skin fibroblasts and human bone marrow stromal cells). The results suggest that the spherulites have to be considered as a new and promising tool for gene transfection.

ABSTRACT

This article describes extensively and systematically oral mucosa diseases. Macroscopical aspects are particularly described in order to give the dentist all important elements of differential diagnosis. This nosological description is based on a clinical approach: white and pigmented lesions are distinguished from ulcerated and benign so as malignant tumoral lesions. Specifically on the oral mucosa located lesions and oral mucosa lesions of systemic diseases are described.
