Complete tooth extraction: a case report.

Advanced Trauma and Life Support protocol is used in trauma situations to identify life-threatening injuries, and after those are addressed, it provides a systematic approach to identify minor injuries. A 17-year-old male, who was involved in a motor vehicle accident, was treated for an open toe fracture. He also had an "avulsion injury" to his left hand and was missing a tooth. On follow-up two days later, he was found to have a tooth in his left hand after he presented with cellulitis of a hand wound. He was appropriately treated with foreign body removal, incision and drainage, and antibiotics. This case is not only presented for being unique but also to emphasize the importance of the secondary survey and serial examinations instructed by Advanced Trauma and Life Support.

[Behavior of the fibrin-stabilizing blood coagulation factor XIII in hemorrhages after tooth extractions].

The influence of the fibrin-stabilizing coagulation factor XIII is necessary for the formation of a stable blood clot. The factor is not included in the usual global coagulation tests. The presence of lowered concentrations of this factor can be congenital or acquired as a result of various diseases. A lowered concentration of factor XIII was demonstrated in six patients with otherwise normal coagulation tests during a secondary hemorrhage a few days after an extraction. The hemorrhage was attributed to the lowered resistance of the instable blood clot over against the fibrinolytic characteristics of the buccal cavity milieu.
