Projeto Liga do Trauma Bucomaxilo Facial: inserção do acadêmico de odontologia ...

O Projeto Liga do Trauma Bucomaxilofacial foi criado em 2004 por iniciativa do acadêmico Lucas Oliveira, sob orientação do professor Dr. Renato Maia. A Liga permite o desenvolvimento científico dos seus integrantes através da apresentação de seminários e do incentivo à participação em importantes eventos científicos. O projeto também enfatiza a participação social dos membros, conscientizando-os acerca de prest...

Analysis of GLUT-1, GLUT-3, and angiogenic index in syndromic and non-syndromic...

Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the immunoexpression of glucose transporters 1 (GLUT-1) and 3 (GLUT-3) in keratocystic odontogenic tumors associated with Gorlin syndrome (SKOTs) and non-syndromic keratocystic odontogenic tumors (NSKOTs), and to establish correlations with the angiogenic index. Seventeen primary NSKOTs, seven recurrent NSKOTs, and 17 SKOTs were selected for the study. The percent...

Surgical treatment, oral rehabilitation, and orthognathic surgery after failure...

Although pharmacologic treatments for central giant cell lesions have gained much emphasis, these treatment modalities do not always have successful outcomes, and surgical treatment may be necessary. The purpose of the present study was to report a case of aggressive central giant cell lesion initially treated by nonsurgical methods without satisfactory results, necessitating segmental mandibular resection for ...

Orthognathic surgery in patients with large condylar destructions

Autotransplantation of immature third molars and orthodontic treatment after en...

Ameloblastoma treatment can lead to significant bone defects; consequently, oral rehabilitation can be challenging. We present the case of a 14-year-old girl diagnosed with a conventional ameloblastoma in the mandible who was treated using en bloc resection and rehabilitated with autotransplantation of the immature third molars and orthodontic treatment. The lesion was in the region of the lower left canine and...

Surgical approach in craniofacial fibrous dysplasia : case report and integrati...

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign and pseudoneoplasic osteopathy with slow progression, characterized by the replacement of normal bone by an excessive proliferation of fibrous connective tissue cell, interspersed with irregular bone trabeculae. In general, it affects 1 between 4,000 to 10,000 individuals living births. This is a not familiar, congenital disorder, which produces around 2.5% of all bone tumors and m...

Avaliação clínica da corticoterapia intralesional em lesão central de células g...

Central Giant Cells Lesion (CGCL) of the jaws is an intra-bone lesion with no predilection for sex and clinically divided into aggressive and non-aggressive subtypes. Histological, it shows as fibrous tissue with fusiform cells, as well as multinucleated giant cells (GC) clusters, he-morrhagic foci and neovascularization. Surgery is the regular treatment option. As new the-rapeutic approaches have been proposed...

Intralesional corticosteroid injections in the treatment of central giant cell ...

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the response of treatment of central giant cell lesion to intralesional corticosteroid injections. Study Design: Review of articles indexed in PubMed on the topic between the years 1988 and 2011, and development of a descriptive meta-analysis of the results. Results: Sample of 41 patients primarily treated with intralesional corticosteroid injections was obtained...

Central giant cell lesion of the jaws : study of CCND1 gene amplification and p...

Central giant cell lesions (CGCLs) are uncommon benign jaw lesions with uncertain etiology and a variable clinical behavior. In neoplasms, alterations in molecules involved in the G1/S checkpoint are frequently found. Loss of p16INK4a expression or overexpression of cyclin D1 may stimulate cell proliferation. The purpose of this study was to analyze CCND1 gene amplification and the expression of p16INK4a in CGC...
