BACKGROUNDOsteoradionecrosis of the jaw (ORN) is a late complication of radiation therapy. Radiation-induced fibrosis is the most likely mechanism for developing ORN, and statins are effective against radiation-induced fibrosis. However, no reports have indicated the direct effectiveness of statins in treating ORN.PURPOSEThis study aimed to measure the association between statin exposure and ORN disease resolution.STUDY DESIGN, SETTING, SAMPLEThis retrospective cohort study included patients with ORN diagnosed between January 2008 and December 2020 at the Hospital's Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. Patients who were immunocompromised or followed up for < 6 months were excluded.PREDICTOR VARIABLEThe predictor variable was statin exposure, which was defined as the use of statins for dyslipidemia.MAIN OUTCOME VARIABLEThe main outcome variable was ORN disease progression status (good prognosis). Patients who showed full recovery and improvement were included in the good prognosis group, and those who showed invariance and deterioration were included in the poor prognosis group.COVARIATESWe analyzed the clinicodemographic including the age of onset, sex, history of smoking, alcohol consumption, history of chemotherapy, tumor site, association with dental treatment, location (maxilla or mandible), the time to ORN onset from radiation therapy, and stage of ORN, and treatment characteristics including hyperbaric oxygen therapy, long-term macrolide administration, and sequestrectomy.ANALYSESWe analyzed the association between statin exposure or covariates and time to ORN improvement using bivariate and multivariate Cox regression. The significance level was set at P = .05.RESULTSWe analyzed 102 patients, and the improvement rate was 32.4%. The favorable prognostic factors were statin exposure (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 3.71; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.62 to 8.50; P = .002), onset in the maxilla (HR, 2.15; 95% CI, 1.02 to 4.55; P = .045), and stage 1 of ORN (HR, 2.65; 95% CI, 1.20 to 5.83; P = .016).CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCEIn this study, statin exposure, onset in the maxilla, and stage 1 of Lyons's classification were favorable prognostic factors for ORN. Although this study's findings were insufficient to recommend statin use for ORN, statins may be a novel and effective treatment for ORN.

INTRODUCTIONTreatment of condylar fractures in patients with atrophic edentulous mandibles is a peculiar field that has been little considered in the literature. The aim of the study was to assess the demographic and clinical variables as well as management and outcome of mandibular condylar fractures in edentulous patients with atrophic mandibles that were treated at several European departments of oral and maxillofacial surgery.METHODSThe data of all patients with fractures of the atrophic edentulous mandible from the involved maxillofacial surgical units across Europe between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2017. Only patients that were diagnosed with condylar fractures of the edentulous atrophic mandible were included.RESULTSA total of 52 patients met the inclusion criteria and were included in the study: 79% of patients reported one or more comorbidities. Thirty-four unilateral neck or subcondylar fractures, 9 bilateral neck or subcondylar condylar fractures, 7 unilateral head condylar fractures, and 2 bilateral head condylar fractures were diagnosed. No treatment was performed in 37 cases, whereas in 4 patients a closed treatment was decided, and 11 patients underwent open reduction and internal fixation. Outcome was considered to be satisfying in 48 patients, with no complications.CONCLUSIONSThe golden rule still remains that the diagnosis of a subcondylar or neck fracture in an edentulous patient should constitute an indication for open reduction and internal fixation. However, an appropriate choice of management options has to be individualized on a case by case basis, also depending on the patient consent.

INTRODUCTIONManagement of body fractures in patients with edentulous atrophic mandibles represents a challenging task due to patient's age, medical comorbidities, poor bone quality, and vascularity, as well as reduced contact area between the fracture ends. The aim of the study was to assess the demographic and clinical variables, the surgical technique, and outcomes of unilateral body fractures of the edentulous atrophic mandible managed at several European departments of oral and maxillofacial surgery.METHODSThis study is based on a systematic computer-assisted database that allowed the recording of data of all patients with fractures of the atrophic edentulous mandible from the involved maxillofacial surgical units across Europe between 2008 and 2017. The following data were recorded for each patient: gender, age, comorbidities, etiology, synchronous body injuries, degree of atrophy of the mandible according to Luhr classification, type of surgical approach and fixation, length of hospitalization, and presence and type of complications.RESULTSA total of 43 patients were included in the study: 17 patients' mandibles were classified as class I according to Luhr, 15 as class II, and 11 as class III. All patients underwent open reduction and internal fixation by extraoral approach in 25 patients, intraoral in 15 patients, and mixed in 3 patients. A single 2.0 miniplate was used in 16 patients, followed by a single 2.4 reconstruction plate in 13 patients, by two 2.0 miniplates, and three 2.0 miniplates. Outcome was considered to be satisfying in 30 patients, with no complications. Complications were observed in 13 cases.CONCLUSIONSTreatment of unilateral body fractures of the edentulous mandible must still be based on the type of fracture, degree of atrophy, experience of the surgeon, and patients' preference. An adequate stability can be obtained by different plating techniques that have to be appropriately tailored to every single specific patient.
