Fresh-frozen human bone graft to repair defect after mandibular giant follicular cyst removal: a case report.

The purpose of this article is to report the clinical, radiographical and histological findings about a case of a young woman affected by a mandibular giant follicular cyst. Conservative tumor resection was followed by immediate reconstructive treatment using fresh frozen human bone graft, instead of autologous bone graft, as material for bone regeneration. Follicular cyst is a benign, non invasive lesion with slow but progressive growth. Radiological and histological examination of the lesion confirmed the presence of a follicular cyst which underwent biopsy evaluation before enucleation. According to literature, conservative treatment was performed with optimal prognosis. At 24 months post surgery no evidence of recurrency was objective; the CT scan revealed optimal bone formation inside the reconstructed site. The use of fresh frozen bone allograft, thanks to its osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties, can be a safe choice for reconstruction of bone defects after jaw cysts removal

Ulteriori verifiche della durata del periodo d'incubazione di Plasmopara viticola (Berk. et Curt.) Berl. e De Toni in Veneto

Dal 1996 al 2003 sono state effettuate indagini riguardanti la durata del periodo d'incubazione di Plasmopara viticola inoculando sperimentalmente foglie e grappoli di tre diversi vigneti, due di cv Corvina siti in provincia di Verona e uno di cv Merlot in provincia di Padova. I risultati ottenuti hanno confermato che su foglia il periodo d'incubazione \ue8 molto simile a quello pervisto sulla base del metodo individuato da Goidanich et al. (1957), mentre su grappolo esso \ue8 pi\uf9 prolungato, pur avendo una durata variabile, specialmente in conseguenza di inoculazioni effettuate nelle fasi fenologiche precendenti l'allegagione

Ectopic mandibular third molar: report of two cases by intraoral and extraoral access.

Ectopic third molar displacement is a rare event in the population. The etiology of this infrequent condition has not been completely clarified. Optimal management is still unclear. In symptomatic patients surgical removal, after a careful preoperative planning, is the recommended treatment. Several surgical approaches, both extraoral and intraoral, have been described, depending on the ectopic molar position. This paper reports two cases of ectopic third molar, one located in the coronoid process and the other one in the lower edge of the mandibular body. Both teeth were removed successfully by an intraoral and extraoral approach respectively
