REPRODUCE
Principles of Incision
1. Use a sharp blade with proper shape and
size.
2. Long firm continuous stroke
3. Avoid cutting vital structures when incising
4. Blade should be held perpendicular to the
epithelial surface
5. Placed incision lines on areas with sound
bone support

access to an area or to move
tissue from one place to
another.”

Prevention of Flap Necrosis
1. Wider base than free margin. Free margin can be
wider if a major artery is present in the base.
► Flap should have sides that either run parallel to each
other or converge from the base to the apex.
2. The length of the flap should be no more than twice
the width of the base.
► In the oral cavity the length of the flap should never
exceed the width
3. An axial blood supply should be included in the base
of the flap.
4. The base of the flap should not be excessively
twisted, stretched or grasped with anything that might

Flap Dehiscence
Prevention:
1. Approximate the edges of the flap over healthy bone
2. Gentle handling of flap edges
3. No tension flaps
TOPRANK-HISUBIDOJR DO NOT
REPRODUCE
Prevention of Flap Tearing
1. Create a flap that is large
enough to allow sufficient access
on the area of surgery
► Common mistake: creating a
conservatively small flap thinking
it would be less traumatic
► a properly cut long incision heals
as quickly as a short one.

Tissue Handling
1. NO excessive pulling or crushing, YES
extremes of temperature, 1. Delicately hold tissue
desiccation 2. Moistened and cover with damp
2. NO use of unphysiologic chemicals sponge
which can easily damage tissue.
3. NO tight pinching by tissue forcep
4. NO aggressively retraction to gain
greater surgical access.

Rationale:

Early Warning Signs for Potential Cancer:
Early Warning Signs Late Signs
1. an ulceration that bleeds easily 1. Difficulty in chewing, swallowing or
and doesn’t heal within 10 to 14 moving the tongue or jaw
days 2. Unexpected weight loss or fever
2. A lump or thickening
3. a reddish or whitish patch that
persists
3. Difficulty in swallowing General Rule: “When in doubt, Biopsy!”

4 Types of Biopsy:
1. Cytology

3. incisional biopsy
4. excisional biopsy

Cytology
Indication:
• For detection of uterine cervix • when large areas of mucosal
malignancy. change must be monitored for
• Not a substitute for biopsy but dysplastic change (post radiation
should only be used as an adjunct. changes, herpes, pemphigus,)
• Oral use is unreliable: it only allow
examination of individual cells but
not histologic architecture.
• A positive cytology report still has to
be confirmed by biopsy prior to any
definitive treatment.

Technique (cytology):
1. Lesion scrapped repeatedly and
firmly with a moistened tongue
depressor or cement spatula.
2. Cells obtained are smeared evenly
on a glass slide.
3. Slide immediately immersed in a
fixing solution (95% ethyl alcohol
and ether) or sprayed with a fixative
(hair spray works well)
4. Cells are stained and the cellular
characteristics examined under the
microscope

Aspirational Biopsy
• Use of a needle and a syringe to penetrate a
lesion for aspiration of its content Indication:
• Inability to aspirate fluid or air = mass probably • Lesions suspected to contain
solid fluid
• If pus is aspirated = infectious mass like an
abscess.
• Air on aspiration = traumatic bone cavity
• Blood on aspiration = vascular malformations
on the jaw, aneurysmal bone cyst , central
giant cell granulomas
• A radioluscent lesion in the jaw that yields
straw-colored fluid on aspiration = cyst

REPRODUCE
Technique:
1. Area is anesthetized.
2. Use 18-g needle in a 5 or 10 ml syringe and inject needle at
the approximate depth of the mass.
3. Tip of the needle may need to be repeatedly repositioned in
an effort to locate a fluid center.
4. For intraosseous lesions with expansion and thinning of
bone needle maybe firmly applied directly to the
mucoperiosteum and made to perforate the cortical plate.
5. If above fails then a mucoperiosteal flap maybe elevated
and bur used to penetrate the cortical plate.

Incisional vs Excisional Biopsy
Incisional Excisional
• Lesions larger than 1cm (extensive) • Lesions 1cm or less
• High suspicion of being malignant • Benign lesions
• only a particular or representative • The entire lesion is removed with
part of the lesion is removed some portion of normal tissue
• Located in hazardous areas included
• Any lesions that can be removed
completely without mutilating the
patient like pigmented and small
vascular lesions

Principles in incisional biopsy
1. Get tissue in an area that shows complete
tissue changes.
2. Necrotic tissue should be avoided because
they are useless in diagnosis.
3. Material taken from the edge of the lesion to
include some normal tissue
4. Representative area of the lesion is cut in a
wedge fashion.
5. Take deep and narrow biopsy rather than a
broad shallow one. Superficial changes are
quite different form deeper ones.

Principles in excisional:
• the entire lesion along with 2 –
5 mm of normal appearing
surrounding tissue is excised
TOPRANK-HISUBIDOJR DO NOT
REPRODUCE
Technique of excisional
1. Avoid distortion of the tissue with
local anesthetic infiltration.
2. Isolate the lesion and immobilize
tissue. A traction suture, hook or
forcep maybe used for
mobilization but avoid crushing the
specimen.
3. Elliptical incision around the
lesion. The margins should at
least be 5 mm from the lesion in
width and depth.
4. The biopsy site maybe sutured or
allowed to heal by secondary

Specimen Handling
1. The tissue submitted must be carefully
handled to avoid distortion which may
affect final evaluation.
Fixative
2. Utilize proper instrumentation
3. Carefully blot the specimen of any excess • Most common fixative: 10% formalin
blood
or 4% formaldehyde
4. Orient the specimen by identifying
appropriate margins. A suture is helpful to • Isotonic solution of saline or local
label a specific area of the specimen. anesthetic maybe used and the
5. Avoid dehydration secondary to delay in specimen refrigerated until the proper
fixation or improper fixation solution is available.
6. Placed the excised specimen in 10% • The volume of the fixative should be
formalin solution immediately. 20X relative to the size of the
7. Label the specimen clearly for easy specimen
identification and to avoid confusion.

Biopsy of Bone Lesions
• Principles similar with soft tissue biopsy
• Major difference is the time difference before the
laboratory request is processed
• Bone must be decalcified prior to cutting the tissue in
preparation for microscopic examination

Lateral Palatal Soft Tissue Excess
• Soft tissue excess in the lateral aspect
of the palatal vault often interferes with
proper denture construction
• It creates slight undercuts that narrows
the palatal vault
• Tangential incision to cut off the
superficial layers of mucosa and
underlying fibrous tissue to be remove
• Surgical splint lined with tissue
conditioner inserted 5 to 7 days

Procedure
1. Double Y incision extended the
incision beyond the part of the bone
to be reduced.
2. Traction sutures
3. Holes are drilled in equal distances to
sectionalize the torus.
4. Primary drill holes are interconnected
5. Maxillary torus not excised en mass
but by segments. Osteotome or
chisel with the bevel facing bone
each segment is excised.
6. Protruberances and sharp areas
smoothened
7. Palatal stent placed over the flap.

Functions: • Old denture can be used as a stent
• Made of clear acrylic
1. prevent hematoma
• fabricated prior to surgical

3. To stabilize a dressing • Cast is scrapped and stent is
fabricated with shape consistent to
estimated amount of bone
reduction
• dressing of ZOE with gauze mesh
or a periodontal dressing which has
to be changed every 2 to 3 days
• patient instructed to remove stent
