Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is the cyst arising from the cell rests of dental lamina. It can occur anywhere in the jaw, but commonly seen in the posterior part of the mandible. Radiographically, most OKCs are unilocular when presented at the periapex and can be mistaken for radicular or lateral periodontal cyst.
One of the most painful but easy-to-treat dental emergencies is a dry socket.
• Dry socket symptoms are experienced after a tooth extraction.
• This condition requires follow-up care by the doctor who performed the surgery, an oral surgeon or a dentist who is familiar with how to treat it.

Al-Azhar University. By definition, a cyst is a “pouch” or sac without an opening, provided with a distinct membrane, and containing fluid or semifluid material, abnormally developed in one of the natural cavities or in the substance of an organ. Cysts of the oral region may be epithelial or non-epithelial, odontogenic or non-odontogenic, developmental, or inflammatory in origin. The distribution of jaw cysts according to diagnosis in a general population is given. The treatment of choice is dependent on the size and localization of the lesion, the bone integrity of the cystic wall, its proximity to vital structures and patient age.Treatment modalities are discussed.

MANAGEMENT OF ATRIOVENTRICULAR CONDUCTION BLOCK.pdfJim Jacob Roy
Cardiac conduction defects can occur due to various causes.
Atrioventricular conduction blocks ( AV blocks ) are classified into 3 types.
This document describes the acute management of AV block.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

REASONS OF CYST
TREATMENT
27. 1. Removal of the pathological lining.
2. Conservation of erupted, partially erupted and un-
erupted teeth.
3. Preservation of adjacent vital structures
4. Restoration of the affected area to its original
form.
5. Achieve rapid healing of the surgical site.
OBJECTIVES OF CYST
TREATMENT
29. Cysts of the jaws are treated in one of the following four basic methods:
(1) Enucleation,
(2) Marsupialization,
(3) A staged combination of the two procedures, and
(4) Enucleation with curettage.
TREATMENT
30. • Enucleation is the process by which the total removal of a cystic lesion
is achieved (shelling out) without rupture of its lining if possible.
• Enucleation of cysts should be performed with care, in an attempt to
remove the cyst in one piece without frag-mentation, which reduces
the chances of recurrence by increasing the likelihood of total removal.
• However, maintenance of the cystic architecture is not always possible,
and rupture of the cystic contents may occur during manipulation.
1. ENUCLEATION
31. INDICATIONS :
• Accessible cyst.
• Small to moderate size cysts.
• Cysts which do not encroach vital structures.
• Cysts that do not involve the soft tissues.
CONTRAINDICATIONS:
• Large cyst surgical access would weaken the jaw that a fracture might
occur.
• Dentigerous cyst in a young person involving erupting teeth or tooth.
• When endangering the vitality of the teeth near the cyst.
• Cysts with friable thin membrane. E.g. keratocyst.
• Eruption cyst.
ENUCLEATION
32. ADVANTAGES:
• Removal of the entire pathological tissue.
• Healing is more rapid than marsupialization.
• Decreases the need for postoperative care and irrigation.
DISADVANTAGES:
• Possibility of damaging surrounding vital structures & teeth.
• Complete removal of the cyst lining may not be possible
when it extends to involve soft tissue.
• Risk of fracture mand or oro-antral & oro-nasal
communication.
ENUCLEATION
33. OPERATIVE PROCEDURES:
1. Enucleation through the socket.
2. Enucleation with primary closure.
3. Enucleation with space obliteration and primary
closure.
A. ENUCLEATION THROUGH THE SOCKET:
1. When extracting teeth with periapical radiolucencies
small in size.
2. Enucleation could be performed via the tooth’s socket.
ENUCLEATION
34. B. ENUCLEATION WITH PRIMARY CLOSURE:
1. L.A. or G.A.
2. Determine teeth management RCT or extraction.
3. Reflect a mucoperiosteal flap of sufficient width.
4. Gaining access to the cyst lining by bone removal & enlarge
the bony opening.
5. Evacuate the cyst collapse cyst lining facilitate cyst
removal.
6. Use bone curette, mucoperiosteal elevator to completely
remove the cyst lining from the walls of the bony cavity
while grasping it with Allis forceps.
ENUCLEATION
35. 7. Debridement and thorough observation.
8. Closure and sutures (left for 7-10 days)
9. External pressure pack for buccal approach or
palatal acrylic stent if palatal approach.
10. Routine immediate postoperative care:
• Pressure pack.
• Cold application for the 1st 24 hrs.
• Warm saline mouth bath the next 24 hrs.
ENUCLEATION
36. C. ENUCLEATION WITH SPACE OBLITERATION AND PRIMARY
CLOSURE:
1. Same steps from 1 to 7.
2. For space obliteration:
• Hemostatic resorbable sponges.
• Autogenous cancellous bone grafting.
• Allogenic bone grafting.
• DFDB.
3. Then continue steps 8 - 10.
ENUCLEATION
39. • Marsupialization, decompression, and the Partsch operation
all refer to creating a surgical window in the wall of the cyst,
evacuating the contents of the cyst, and maintaining
continuity between the cyst and the oral cavity, maxillary
sinus, or nasal cavity.
• The only portion of the cyst that is removed is the piece
removed to produce the window. The remaining cystic
lining is left in situ.
2. MARSUPIAIIZATION
40. 1. Release of the intracystic fluid.
2. Release of the intracystic pressure.
3. The functional stresses will be allowed to stimulate new
bone formation beneath the cyst membrane.
4. Causes gradual obliteration of the cyst cavity &
exteriorization of the cyst lining
5. At the end, the cystic cavity is completely replaced with
bone and the lining diminishes until it disappears.
MECHANISM
41. 1. Eruption cyst in patients below 20 years of age.
2. Dentigerous cysts to allow tooth to erupt.
3. Large cysts encroaching on the soft tissue
4. Large cysts encroaching the maxillary sinus.
5. Large cysts encroaching the nose.
6. When enucleation cause weakening of the mandible
7. When enucleation cause injury to healthy tissues.
INDICATION
42. CONTRAINDICATIONS:
1. Fissural cysts.
2. Cysts with tumor potentials as KCOC & Keratocysts.
ADVANTAGES:
1. Simple.
2. Contour of the jaw is preserved.
3. Protects neighboring structures from surgical damage.
4. Avoids possibility of developing oro-antral or oro-nasal
fistulae.
MARSUPIAIIZATION
43. Disadvantages:
1. Possible recurrence.
2. Maximum post-operative care required.
3. Sometimes difficult to clean.
4. Healing is slow especially in elderly patients.
MARSUPIAIIZATION
44. 1) Anaesthesia
2) Aspiration
3) Incision
Circular, oval or elliptic. Inverted U shaped incision with broad base
to the buccal sulcus. Mucoperioteum is reflected in this case.
4) Removal of bone
5) Removal of cystic lining specimen
6) Visual examination of residual cystic lining
7) Irrigation of cystic cavity
8) Suturing
Cystic lining sutured with the edge of oral mucosa.
In U shaped incision the mucoperiosteal flap can be turned into cystic
cavity covering the margin. The remaining is sutured to oral mucosa.
TECHNIQUE OF
MARSUPIAIIZATION
45. 9) Packing-- Prevents food contamination & covers wound margins.
Done with ribbon gauze soaked with WHITEHEAD VARNISH.
COMPOSTION:
Benzoin – 10g
Iodoform – 10g
Storax - 7.5g
Balsam of Tolu – 5g
Solvent ether to 100ml
Pack removed after 2 weeks.
10) Maintenance of cystic cavity
Instruct the patient to clean and irrigate the cavity regularly with oral
antiseptic rinse with a disposable syringe.
CONTINUE…
46. 11) Use of plug
Prevents contamination. Preserves patency of cyst orifice.
Plug should be stable, retentive and safe design.
Should be made of resilient material ( avoid irritation) like acrylic.
12) Healing
Cavity may or may not obliterate totally. Depression remains in the
alveolar process.
CONTINUE…
47.
48. 3. ENUCLEATION AFTER
MARSUPIALIZATION
INDICATIONS
• When bone has covered the adjacent vital structures.
• Adequate bone fill. Prevents fracture during enucleation.
• When patients find it difficult to cleanse the cavity.
• To detect any occult pathological condition.
ADVANTAGES
• Spares adjacent vital structures
• Accelerates healing process
• Development of thick cystic lining – enucleation easier
• Allows histopathological examination of residual tissue.
• Combined approach reduces morbidity
49. DISADVANTAGES
• Patient has under go second surgery and any possible
complication associated with surgery.
3. ENUCLEATION AFTER
MARSUPIALIZATION
50. 4. ENUCLEATION WITH
CURETTAGE
• Enucleation with curettage means that after enucleation a
curette or bur is used to remove 1 to 2 mm of bone around
the entire periphery of the cystic cavity
• Any remaining epithelial cells that may be present in the
periphery of the cystic wall or bony cavity must be removed.
• These cells could proliferate into a recurrence of the cyst.
51. Indications :
Remove any remaining epithelial cells that may be present to
prevent the recurrence of the cyst, as in:
• Treating an odontogenic keratocyst (parakeratotic)
aggressive clinical behavior + high rate of recurrence (20-60%)
+ daughter or satellite cysts may be found at periphery of
main cystic lesion.
• If it recurs after this treatment bone resection with 1cm
safety margin should be done.
ENUCLEATION WITH
CURETTAGE
