Preformed hydroxylapatite blocks for palatal grafting in orthognathic surgery.

Hydroxylapatite has been used as a bone substitute for ridge augmentation, ridge maintenance and periodontal defects for many years. This is a preliminary report of the use of hydroxylapatite blocks as a grafting material in midpalatal splits in orthognathic surgery. With the advent of hydroxylapatite blocks, the need for autogenous bone grafting will, in most cases, be obviated.

Acetominophen toxicity. Report of two cases.

Both chronic low-dose use within accepted therapeutic limits and acute overdosage of acetominophen with as little as 7 Gm or 150 mg./kg. can result in irreversible centrilobular hepatic necrosis. Prompt and proper treatment with N-acetyl-cysteine in strict adherence to accepted protocol will prevent potentially fatal results. Clinicians who prescribe acetominophen must likewise be cognizant of other potential side effects, such as methemoglobinemia, hemolysis, and prothrombin suppression.
