Quick Review #164 - #surgery #surgeon #doctorgallagher #oralsurgery #oralsurgeon #omfs #dentist #dentistry #dental #bsso #bilateralsagittalsplit #osteotomy #orthognathic

The bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) is a common surgical procedure used to correct mandibular deformities. Important anatomical landmarks for a BSSO include:

1. Ramus: The vertical part of the mandible. The osteotomy is typically initiated here.

2. Mandibular Canal: Contains the inferior alveolar nerve. The osteotomy is planned to avoid damage to this canal and the nerve within.

3. Lingula: A bony projection on the medial aspect of the ramus. It serves as a key reference point for the horizontal cut of the osteotomy.

4. Oblique Ridge: Located on the lateral aspect of the mandible. The osteotomy often extends down this ridge.

5. Inferior Border of the Mandible: The lower edge of the mandible. Care is taken to avoid fractures or undue stress in this area.

6. Angle of the Mandible: The posterior region where the ramus meets the body of the mandible. The osteotomy line usually extends around this area.

7. Mental Foramen: Contains the mental nerve, which must be avoided to prevent sensory disturbances in the lower lip and chin.

The LeFort I osteotomy is a common surgical procedure in orthognathic surgery, primarily used to correct maxillary deformities. Important anatomical landmarks for a LeFort I osteotomy include:

1. Piriform Aperture: The bony opening of the nasal cavity. The osteotomy line typically extends lateral to the piriform aperture.

2. Zygomaticomaxillary Buttress: The region where the maxilla and zygoma meet. Osteotomy cuts are made through or near this buttress.

3. Nasal Floor: The base of the nasal cavity. The osteotomy line passes just above the nasal floor.

4. Infraorbital Foramen: Contains the infraorbital nerve. The osteotomy is planned to avoid damaging this nerve to prevent sensory disturbances.

5. Anterior Nasal Spine: A reference point for the midline and positioning during surgery.

6. Pterygomaxillary Junction: The area where the pterygoid plates meet the maxilla. This region requires careful disjunction to mobilize the maxilla effectively.

Quick Review #162 - #surgery #surgeon #doctorgallagher #oralsurgery #oralsurgeon #omfs #dentist #dentistry #dental #nitrous #nitrousoxide

Nitrous oxide, commonly known as “laughing gas”, is widely used in dentistry for its anxiolytic and analgesic properties. However, there are certain conditions, diseases, and disorders where its use is contraindicated. These contraindications can be absolute or relative, depending on the severity and control of the underlying condition:

Absolute Contraindications:

1. Recent Ophthalmic Surgery: Use of nitrous oxide is contraindicated in patients who have had recent ophthalmic surgery involving intraocular gas (e.g., retinal detachment repair with gas bubble).

2. Pneumothorax: Nitrous oxide can expand closed air spaces, potentially worsening pneumothorax.

3. Bowel Obstruction: Similar to its effects on pneumothorax, nitrous oxide can increase the volume of gas within the intestines.

4. Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Due to the risk of hypercarbia and hypoxia.

5. Middle Ear Surgery or Disorders: Nitrous oxide can cause increased pressure within the middle ear.

Relative Contraindications:

1. Asthma: Generally, well-controlled asthma is not a contraindication. However, patients with severe or poorly controlled asthma should be assessed carefully. The risk lies primarily in the potential for anxiety or hyperventilation to precipitate an asthma attack rather than the nitrous oxide itself.

2. COPD: Mild to moderate COPD may not be an absolute contraindication, but caution is advised due to potential hypoxia and hypercarbia.

3. Upper Respiratory Tract Infections: These can increase the risk of airway irritation and compromise.

4. Psychiatric Disorders: Patients with certain psychiatric disorders, such as severe anxiety or psychosis, may have unpredictable responses to nitrous oxide.

5. Pregnancy: While nitrous oxide is relatively safe, its use in pregnant women is typically avoided during the first trimester due to potential teratogenic effects. It should be used with caution and in consultation with an obstetrician.

6. Vitamin B12 Deficiency: Nitrous oxide can interfere with vitamin B12 metabolism, so caution is advised in patients with known deficiency or pernicious anemia.
