Odontogenic infection and antiresorptive agent-related osteonecrosis of the jaw with facial subcutaneous abscess formation: A retrospective clinical study of difficult-to-diagnose cases
2021, Auris Nasus LarynxCitation Excerpt :Treatments of odontogenic infection and ARONJ with facial subcutaneous abscess formation commonly consist of dental treatment and infection control, and removal of the fistula is usually not required. Dental treatment in the form of tooth extraction and/or endodontic treatment should be performed [13]. Since insufficient endodontic treatment can cause recurrence of external fistulas [2], careful follow-up after treatment is necessary.
An uncommon cause for a non-healing cutaneous fistula in the parotid gland area - A case report
2018, Annals of Medicine and SurgeryCitation Excerpt :The goal of the treatment is to eliminate the source of infection. A previously reported review of 137 cases found that 106 (77%) were treated by extraction and 27 (20%) were solved by surgical or conservative nonsurgical endodontic therapy [14]. Some earlier studies suggested that the sinus tract is lined with epithelium and propose surgical extraction of the tooth to achieve healing [15].
