Clinical trials with bupivacaine in oral surgery.

Bupivacaine HCL is compared to lidocaine with respect to clinical use in oral surgery. Onset, potency, and duration of anesthesia with it are documented. The major advantage of its use is the long duration of its anesthetic effect, with a very slow return to full sensation, which eases the patient through the early postoperative period.

Juvenile hemangioendothelioma: report of a case and review of the literature.

A solitary juvenile hemangioendothelioma on the maxillary gingiva of a newborn white male has been presented. No recurrence or evidence of systemic involvement has been noted in the 18 months following excision. The literature was reviewed with emphasis on the varying location and behavior of the lesion and the methods of treatment. Simple excision of the isolated, histologically benign neoplasm is recommended provided adequate follow-up is assured.
