Amr Amin Ghanem, Yasser Nabil El Hadidi

Abstract

Various forms of vascular lesion affect the head and neck region. The head and neck vascular lesions are classified into neoplasms and malformations. Neoplasm presents either as hemangioma or lymphangioma; neoplasm usually presents in young age compared with vascular malformation. A 9-year-old female patient presented to the outpatient clinic referred from the department of pedodontics after extraction of a right mandibular second deciduous molar. Extraction was done by dental GP in outpatient clinic. Massive bleeding followed the extraction. Bleeding was controlled by electrocoagulation of bleeding site and systemic and local application of antifibrinolytic agent. An intravenous line was placed to provide fluid replacement. Injection of intravenous cyklokapron was given to stabilize the blood clot. Selective embolization was performed 24 hours prior to surgical resection of lesion and the lesion was removed under general anesthesia followed by peripheral ostectomy of bone to remove any feeders. Different protocols are used to control life-threatening bleeding. Primary local measures such as Gelfoam packing, Tranexamic or Aminocaproic topical application, Surgicel application, Electrocautery, Bone wax, Ligation of External Caro...Continue Reading

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
