Primary wound closure in haemophiliacs undergoing dental extractions

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Abstract

215 teeth were extracted in 62 haemophiliacs following a single infusion of factor VIII supplemented with antifibrinolytics. Tooth sockets were packed with Sorbacel gauze soaked with an antifibrinolytic. 1 group was sutured and the other left open. Primary closure of the extraction wound did not show direct effect on haemostasis. However, the size of the clot showed a statistically significant difference between the primary closure and open wound groups. The authors conclude that primary closure of the extraction wound protects the blood clot, makes the postoperative period more comfortable for patients and may subsequently decrease the risk of postoperative bleeding.

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.
