3 Flashcards
Best screening test for cardiac contusion?
EKG
What is the best way to monitor blood loss & fluid status in a trauma patient?
CVP, then UOP
What is the best radiographic study to evaluate orbital floor disruption?
coronal CT
Which of the following will cause traumatic telecanthus?
Periorbital lacerations and Type III NOE fracture
How to plate & wire a Type III NOE fracture?
ORIF, transnasal wiring of canthus – posterior & superior to thelacrimal fossa
Treatment of a CSF leak, should include?
Place patient in head-up, semi-reclining position
Where do you make the lateral orbital osteotomy for a Lefort III?
Frontozygomatic suture extending into the inferior orbital fissure
Why do you need to bone graft in an NOE fracture?
To recreate the dorsal-nasal support and correct tip projection
When placing an implant, what temperature results in the destruction of bone?
47 degrees
Indications for a submucous vestibuloplasty?
When maxillary denture is unstable owing to shallow vestibular depthand/or high muscle attachments, but the maxilla exhibits good underlying bone height and contour
You are placing 5 standard (4.0mm) implants into the anterior mandible of anedentulous patient, between the mental foramina. What is the length of bone, between the foramina needed?
44 mm4mm each implant3mm between each implant5mm between terminal implants and mental foramina Adds up to: 42 mm
Where is the most stress on an implant?
Crown/implant interface
In a lip-switch vestibuloplasty, where is the mucosal flap sutures?
To the cut periosteal edge at the depth of the vestibule
What is the difference between a mandibular staple implant and a TMI?
Less bone required for TMI
What is the most common long-term complication of costochondral grafts?
Asymmetric growth
Minimum clearances needed for a bar-attached overdenture?
11mm
The vertical height needed for a bar attachment can approach 11 mm. This distance will provide for the height of the bar (2 to 4 mm), 2 mm under the bar for maintenance of hygiene, and at least 7 to 8 mm of restorative material in the overdenture (usually acrylic resin)
What percentage of disc recapture following arthroscopy?
0-10%
Which form of TMJ noise has the best prognosis?
Early opening and late reciprocal click
When performing a preauricular approach for TMJ surgery, which statement best describes the position of CN VII?
Between the SMAS & the superficial layer of Deep Temporal Fascia
How is pain felt when you have a disc perforation?
Subchondral nociceptors
If done incorrectly, a high condylotomy may cause damage to what nerve?
Auriculotemporal nerve
What is the most common site for A-V malformation following Lefort I osteotomy?
Descending palatine artery
What is the microscopic anatomy of the lingual nerve?
10-25 fascicles
What is the position of the lingual nerve in relation to the alveolar crest?
2.5mm medial to the lingual plate and 2.5mm inferior to the crest,Direct contact 25% of time, 10-15% lie above lingual crest
What is the horizontal relationship of the lingual nerve to the lingual plate?
2.5mm
Which has a greater amount of long-term shrinkage?
STSG
FTSG has greater immediate shrinkage due to elastin
What artery supplies the composite iliac crest flap?
Deep iliac circumflex artery
What type of nerve injury repair has the worst prognosis?
Gap between severed ends, placed under tension
10 year old patient who is s/p anterior iliac crest bone harvest, presents with calf pain, positive popliteal & pedal pulses, pink skin over calf, increased calf pressure, what is the diagnosis?
Compartment syndrome - pallor, paresthesias, pulseless (late and rare), paralysis (late), and pain (early) on passive extension of the compartment
To avoid damage to CN VII, what layer is elevated during a coronal flap?
subgaleal
What is the purpose of HA in bone regeneration?
osteoconduction
What length of defect can you repair with a fibula free flap?
25cm
What type of bond exists between HA & bone?
ionic bonding
What treatment for an atrophic mandible fracture has the best prognosis for healing?
ORIF w/reconstruction plate (2.4-2.7mm)
Where does the mentalis muscle insert?
dermis of skin
How does a split thickness skin graft receive its nutrition for the first 48 hours?
Plasmatic imbibitions
How does freeze dried bone work?
Osteoconduction – may provide BMP
How does corticocancellous particulate graft work?
Cortical bone has higher concentration of BMP, cortical chips incorporated into corticocancellous grafts enhance osteoinductive potential
What is the primary blood supply to the pectoralis major flap?
Thoracoacromial artery - Pectoral Branch
What is the primary blood supply to the delto-pectoral flap
Perforators from internal mammary artery
