Injuries and poisonings

Fracture of the alveolar process in children: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

In contrast to the symptoms of fracture of alveolar processes in adults, fractures of the alveolar process in children in children are accompanied by more significant ruptures, detachment of the mucosa and swelling of the adjacent soft tissues.

Fracture of the lower jaw: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

In peacetime, the frequency of damage to the face is 0.3 cases per 1000 people, and the proportion of maxillofacial trauma among all injuries with bone damage in the urban population ranges from 3.2 to 8%. In this case, facial bones fractures are observed in 88.2%, soft tissue injuries in 9.9%, and face burns in 1.9% of cases.

Fracture of upper jaw

The fracture of the upper jaw usually passes through one of the three typical lines of least resistance described by Le Forus: the upper, middle and lower. They are called the lines of Le Fora (Le Fort, 1901).

Injuries of jaws and teeth in children: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

In peacetime, damage to the maxillofacial area in children is 6-13% of the total number of injuries. Between 1984 and 1988, children with injuries accounted for 4.1%.

Fracture of the tooth: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

The most common type of traumatic tooth injury is a fracture of the tooth at various levels. There are: a fracture of the tooth at the level of the dentinal dentin (without exposing the pulp), at the level of the near-pulp dentin (the pulp is visible) and fracture of the crown with damage to the pulp.

Dislocation of the tooth: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Dislocation of the tooth is often accompanied by damage to the walls of the alveoli. Children often have a dislocation of one or more frontal teeth.

Injury of the tooth: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

A tooth contusion is the least severe trauma, characterized by a hemorrhage into the pulp due to rupture of the vascular-neural bundle entering the opening of the apex of the tooth.

Injury of the spine in old age: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

The elderly age of the affected persons imposes their own peculiarities on the mechanism of origin, clinical forms and clinical manifestations, the course and treatment of spine trauma.

Injury of the spine in children: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Injury of the spine in children is relatively rare. The main type of violence is flexion as a result of falling from a height or falling of gravity from above to the shoulders of the victim. The most common clinical form of spinal injury is compression wedge fractures of vertebral bodies.

Subluxations, dislocations and fracture-dislocations of the thoracic and lumbar spine: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Subluxations of lumbar vertebrae are rare. Clinically, they often take the form of "bruises" of the spine or "stretching" of its ligament apparatus.
