To optimize aesthetic results and decrease postoperative time, a protype was made using tomographic images. Through the patient prototyped guides, a laboratory step was performed to plate bending and adaptation. Findings: The surgical procedure was optimized, which allowed early functional recovery of the patient. The obtaining of the prototyped guides allowed the previous fold of the plate for the specific case, through a simple and low cost technique. Conclusion: The presented technique was considered a valuable resource for the decrease of the operative time and improvement of the results. The prototype guided surgical technique can be used in the medical or dental area, promoting fast and affordable results in the field of reconstruction.

The maxillofacial region contains several structures that are vital for life. Hence, an early assessment and management of facial injuries is important to avoid their consequential complications and eventual mortality. This article is a review of the literature about the emergency clinical assessment and management of traumatic facial injuries by non-specialists.

Al ser aplicados en los tejidos polimerizan uniéndose con el tejido subyacente. Desde la década de los 70' se han explorado sus aplicaciones quirúrgicas para el cierre de heridas y fístulas, control de sangrado y fijación de injertos, entre otros, siendo su uso como alternativa para el cierre de heridas en piel y mucosas uno de los más estudiados. Los ACA presentan un limitado grado de absorción, sin evidencia de efectos tóxicos sistémicos. Tienen la ventaja de ser aplicados de forma rápida, indolora, con efecto antibacteriano y hemostático según los reportes de la literatura, pero presentan una reducida fuerza de tensión. El objetivo de esta revisión de la literatura es describir los usos y aplicaciones de los ACA, con enfoque en la cirugía oral y maxilofacial, evaluando de forma crítica sus aplicaciones. PALABRAS CLAVE Cianoacrilatos, suturas, cierre de heridas, cirugía oral.

Unification of these diseases under only one category is based on the almost identical histopathologic features of the lesions, but the etiology and proper approach for each presentation remains controversial. The localized alternative of Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LLCH), known as Eosinophilic Granuloma (EG) of bone, is the predominant clinical presentation of LCH. The maxilla is involved in 1 % of the head and neck region cases, representing an uncommon condition in this area. Case Presentation: In this clinical case report, it is described a case of a 16-year-old male patient with an asymptomatic osteolytic lesion at first upper left molar apical level, a finding detected on control radiographic images was reported as " Monostotic Eosinophilic granuloma of the maxillary bone " , which was later confirmed through an incisional biopsy. A surgical excision was initially planned, but finally it was not performed due to a spontaneous healing of the lesion after the incisional biopsy. Conclusions: The presented case supports a conservative approach in the management of solitary EG of maxillary and mandibular bone lesions and even supports an expectant attitude in the course of treatment given the possibility of a spontaneous regression after the biopsy, especially in small lesions.
