1/5. Nasal teeth associated with rhinosinusitis.Intranasal ectopic dentition is a rare clinical entity. It may be asymptomatic or can be associated with different symptoms. In 25% of the reported cases an association with rhinosinusitis is suspected. The possible pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment are discussed. Teeth in the floor of both nasal cavities, associated with chronic rhinosinusitis, are reported for the first time, and a new treatment option of endonasal extraction under microscopic control is presented.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1keywords = extraction (Clic here for more details about this article) |
2/5. Oro-nasal fistula occurring after a simple dental extraction.A case is presented of an oro-nasal fistula appearing after a simple dental extraction. A conservative approach resulted in complete and uncomplicated resolution.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 5keywords = extraction (Clic here for more details about this article) |
3/5. Chronic dental fistule on the nose.A case of chronic dental draining sinus on the dorsum of the nose is reported. The skin lesion, clinically simulating basal cell epithelioma, healed promptly after extraction and eradication of the periapical abscess of the right upper canine. The importance of considering this condition is emphasized in cases of chronic facial granulomatous or ulcerative lesions.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1keywords = extraction (Clic here for more details about this article) |
4/5. Consequences of serious oral injury associated with the congenital analgia syndrome.Three sisters at the ages of seven months, twelve years, and thirteen years presented with the initial damages to the oral tissues and the distinctive long-term effects in conjunction with the congenital analgia syndrome. The severity of this syndrome justifies the consideration of a prophylactic extraction of the primary dentition. A controlled mastication will be more likely with increasing age and eruption of the permanent teeth.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1keywords = extraction (Clic here for more details about this article) |
5/5. Rhinolithiasis associated with septal perforation. A case report.A case of bilateral rhinolithiasis secondary to bony septal destruction is reported. The lesion had developed over several years resulting in bilateral nasal obstruction with repeated bouts of fetid, purulent rhinitis. Rhinoscopy allowed localisation of the lesion in the posterior portion of both nasal fossae. Medical imaging (CT-scan) further revealed total destruction of the bony septum and the transverse presentation of the rhinolith anterior to the two choanae. Endoscopic examination, after extraction under local anesthesia, revealed the septal perforation.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1keywords = extraction (Clic here for more details about this article) |
