It was associated with poor vision, eye pain and restriction of eye movement of the same eye after 5 hours post left upper molar tooth extraction. The visual acuity in the left eye was hand movement. There was severe ptosis and proptosis of the left eye. The conjunctiva was chemotic with quite anterior chamber. The pupil was mid dilated and sluggished to light. The ocular movement was restricted in all directions. Fundoscopy of the left eye revealed features of central retinal artery occlusion with hyperaemic disc and subretinal exudates at posterior pole. The right eye appeared normal. Urgent MRI brain and orbit revealed severe left paranasal sinusitis with anterior displacement of the left globe and presence orbital abscess. Patient was managed with Otorhinolaryngology and Neurosurgery teams. He underwent emergency transnasal drainage of abscess. Histopathological examination of unhealthy sinus mucosa showed evidence of fungal infection. However, the culture and sensitivity result was inconclusive. Patient was treated with amphotericin B, ceftriaxone, amoxicillin clavulanate and metronidazole. Patient was detected to have high blood sugar level and was managed accordingly. The proptosis improved with treatment. However, his vision, ptosis and ophthalmoplegia remained static. Assessing the immunocompromised status is important for the management of patient presented as acute orbital apex syndrome to avoid fatal outcome.展开更多

In this case, a 28-year-old female patient took root canal therapy for repeated gingiva tumefaction and tooth stain in anterior teeth of left maxillary and giant foreign body at apex shown in X-ray photography. After removing the foreign body at apex by endodontic surgery, internal bleaching and resin repair were conducted. The therapy shows that the usage specification of hot gutta-percha should strictly follow the operational steps, while the necessity of X-ray photography after operation should be confirmed in clinical operation. In addition, internal bleaching and resin repair should be combined to obtain the success in clinical therapy.展开更多
目的:测试Tri Auto ZX(Morita,Japan)和JustyⅡ(TME-601,Yosh ida Toe i Engineering Company,Ja-pan)2种根管长度电测仪的准确性。方法:用2种电测仪在体外模型中测试26个恒牙根管的长度,体视显微镜下观测根尖狭窄的位置,计算测量偏差...目的:测试Tri Auto ZX(Morita,Japan)和JustyⅡ(TME-601,Yosh ida Toe i Engineering Company,Ja-pan)2种根管长度电测仪的准确性。方法:用2种电测仪在体外模型中测试26个恒牙根管的长度,体视显微镜下观测根尖狭窄的位置,计算测量偏差及准确率。结果:Tri Auto ZX在“0.5”读数处测量偏差显著低于JustyⅡ的“0.5”读数处偏差(P<0.01),测量准确率显著高于JustyⅡ的相应准确率(P<0.01);JustyⅡ“APEX”读数处测量偏差显著低于“0.5”读数处偏差(P<0.01),在±0.5 mm范围内准确率显著高于“0.5”读数(P=0.01)。结论:在离体条件下Tri Auto ZX的测量准确性优于JustyⅡ;Tri Auto ZX的“0.5”、“APEX”及JustyⅡ的“APEX”读数可以作为准确测量操作长度的参考读数。展开更多
