Abstract
Sickle cell disease is a genetic hemoglobinopathy that has the potential to affect any organ of the body. Patients with sickle disease have high morbidity and mortality creating safety concerns among patients and physicians about surgery in this subset of population. Factors that predispose SCD patient to complications are divided into patient-related and surgery-related factors. Patient factors associated with increased complication rate include the type and severity of SCD.
Orthognathic surgery involves osteotomies, major movement of upper or lower jaw that, although safe, have the potential of list of complications in healthy individuals. Therefore, complications are expected to be higher in SCD population. This complicates the decision of surgery and mandates careful perioperative management.
期刊介绍:
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Cases is a surgical journal dedicated to publishing case reports and case series only which must be original, educational, rare conditions or findings, or clinically interesting to an international audience of surgeons and clinicians. Case series can be prospective or retrospective and examine the outcomes of management or mechanisms in more than one patient. Case reports may include new or modified methodology and treatment, uncommon findings, and mechanisms. All case reports and case series will be peer reviewed for acceptance for publication in the Journal.
