Nose Injury Due To Human Bite: A Case Report
Research & Review: Management of Cardiovascular and Orthopedic Complications, 2020Co-Authors: Sarla, Gurmeet SinghAbstract:Following late night alcohol fuelled aggression a patient presented with a human bite over the tip of his Nose. The wound was thoroughly washed with copious amounts of saline and was closed primarily with absorbable sutures and it healed well. Human bites can be classified into impediment bites and the shut clench hand bites, are polymicrobial in nature and tend to get infected. Management of human bite includes tetanus prophylaxis, adequate analgesia, extensive irrigation or debridement of the wounds. Albeit primary repair of bite wounds is related with higher paces of contamination, it is still recommended for bite wounds over the face, where cosmetic result is significant

the case of pleomorphic adenoma in inferior nasal concha
The Polish otolaryngology, 2007Co-Authors: Jerzy Zawiślak, Krzysztof Polberg, Marek Remer, Andrzej StepulakAbstract:The authors present the case of inferior nasal concha tumor at early growth stage. The tumor which turned out to be pleomorphic adenoma was detected accidentally at 28 years old patient with a Nose Injury. This localisation of pleomorphic adenoma is extremely rare. The diagnostics, description of surgery and result of a histopathological examination were presented. Reports of a literature of pleomorphic tumors located in atypical places were quoted. Authors emphasize unanimous surgical treatment and necessity of observation after surgery because of tumor recurrence possibility.

Epidemiology of sport-related traumatic dental Injury among United States High School Athletes
2015Co-Authors: Capote RaquelAbstract:Thesis (Master's)--University of Washington, 2015Background: Participation in high school athletics is steadily increasing thus placing more youth at risk for traumatic dental injuries (TDIs). TDI is an important public health problem due to its high prevalence, challenging management, economic burden, and potential for long-lasting detrimental effects. Although TDIs cannot be completely eliminated, Injury rates and severity have the potential to be reduced. Objectives: To describe dental injuries and examine the protective effect of mouthguards in sport-related dental injuries in high school athletes. Methods: National High School Sports-Related Surveillance Study data (2005/2006−2013/2014) were analyzed. Certified athletic trainers from a national sample of participating high schools prospectively record Injury incidence and athlete exposure (AE) information for high school athletes participating in 20 sports. A case-control design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of mouthguards. Cases were all reportable dental injuries in the surveillance system during the study period. Four different control groups were used: oral soft-tissue injuries, ankle injuries, eye & Nose injuries, and non-head/non-face injuries. Results: The incidence rate for dental injuries was 0.63 per 100,000 AE; student-athletes required surgery with greater frequency for dental injuries (32%) as compared to oral soft-tissue, ankle, Nose & eye, and non-head/non-face Injury groups examined. When comparing dental injuries to the oral soft-tissue injuries, there was a persistent, though statistically non-significant, trend toward protection of mouthguard wear by approximately 20% after adjustment for athlete’s sex, level of exposure, and sport [OR=0.80, 95% CI: 0.23-2.83]; using ankle injuries and non-head/face injuries control groups, mouthguard wear was significantly associated with lower odds of dental Injury after adjustment for athlete’s sex and level of exposure [OR=0.35; 95% CI: 0.22−0.55] and [OR=0.25, 95% CI: 0.16−0.39], respectively; using an eye & Nose Injury control group, mouthguard wear was associated with increased odds of dental Injury, although the associate was not statistically significant [OR=1.56, 95% CI: 0.96-2.54]. Conclusions: We found that sport-related dental injuries were rarely reported yet often severe. The majority of players complied with the mandatory mouthguard equipment policy and there was some evidence of mouthguard protection against dental injuries

incidence of Injury in professional mixed martial arts competitions
Journal of Sports Science and Medicine, 2006Co-Authors: Gregory H Bledsoe, Edbert B Hsu, Jurek G Grabowski, Justin D BrillAbstract:Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) competitions were introduced in the United States with the first Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in 1993. In 2001, Nevada and New Jersey sanctioned MMA events after requiring a series of rule changes. The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of Injury in professional MMA fighters. Data from all professional MMA events that took place between September 2001 and December 2004 in the state of Nevada were obtained from the Nevada Athletic Commission. Medical and outcome data from events were analyzed based on a pair-matched case-control design. Both conditional and unconditional logistic regression models were used to assess risk factors for Injury. A total of 171 MMA matches involving 220 different fighters occurred during the study period. There were a total of 96 injuries to 78 fighters. Of the 171 matches fought, 69 (40.3%) ended with at least one injured fighter. The overall Injury rate was 28.6 injuries per 100 fight participations or 12.5 injuries per 100 competitor rounds. Facial laceration was the most common Injury accounting for 47.9% of all injuries, followed by hand Injury (13.5%), Nose Injury (10.4%), and eye Injury (8.3%). With adjustment for weight and match outcome, older age was associated with significantly increased risk of Injury. The most common conclusion to a MMA fight was a technical knockout (TKO) followed by a tap out. The Injury rate in MMA competitions is compatible with other combat sports involving striking. The lower knockout rates in MMA compared to boxing may help prevent brain Injury in MMA events. Key PointsMixed martial arts (MMA) has changed since the first MMA matches in the United States and now has increased safety regulations and sanctioning.MMA competitions have an overall high rate of Injury.There have been no MMA deaths in the United States.The knockout (KO) rate in MMA appears to be lower than the KO rate of boxing matches.MMA must continue to be supervised by properly trained medical professionals and referees to ensure fighter safety in the future.
