Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to invite you to submit your latest research and insights for consideration to a Special Issue on oral medicine, an interdisciplinary field that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of oral diseases and conditions that affect the mouth and surrounding structures. This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for the dissemination of high-quality research that advances the understanding and treatment of oral diseases. We welcome submissions from researchers, clinicians, and academics from around the world who are working in areas related to oral medicine, including, but not limited to the following:

  • Oral cancer, benign oral neoplasms, and reactive oral pathologies;
  • Salivary gland disorders;
  • Orofacial pain;
  • Oral mucosa diseases;
  • Periodontal diseases;
  • Hereditary orofacial disturbances.

We also encourage submissions that address broader topics, such as oral health disparities and emerging technologies as well as techniques. We welcome contributions from a broad range of topics related to oral pathology, oral microbiology, oral oncology, oral immunology, and orofacial manifestations of systemic diseases. Authors are encouraged to submit original research and reviews that address important questions in oral medicine.

The global increase in polypharmacy and multidirectional interactions is deemed to induce or aggravate allergic/autoimmune reactions affecting oral health. In addition, novel systemic therapies based on monoclonal antibodies, CAR-T/CRISPR biotechnology, and bisphosphonates can impact the function/integrity of oral tissue. Inevitably, it is predicted that demographic changes and extended lifespans are risk factors for more prevalent oral pathologies in medically compromised individuals afflicted with complex underlying conditions. Lastly, in light of COVD-19 pandemic, some infectious systemic diseases possess a real threat to the oral environment.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Biomedicines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Background/Objectives: A pseudoaneurysm forms as a result of disruption of all artery wall layers. In the head and neck, they are most commonly found in the maxillary artery. Due to their location and associated symptoms, detailed radiological imaging is necessary to determine the nature and extent of lesions. Various treatment methods are available. Methods: To systematize symptoms, diagnostics, and treatment methods, a literature review from databases spanning 2014 to 2024 was conducted, with 30 articles included in the study. Results: The factors that caused MAPs included facial trauma (n = 33; 66%), iatrogenic surgical procedures (n = 14; 28%), head and neck radiotherapy (n = 1; 2%), infection (n = 1; 2%), and one case due to an idiopathic factor (n = 1; 2%). Diagnostic imaging included computed tomography with contrast, magnetic resonance imaging, and angiography. Treatment methods used: endovascular embolization (n = 44; 88%), surgical resection (n = 3; 6%), cauterization (n = 2; 4%), and compression tamponade (n = 1; 2%). Interestingly, three of the cases were treated with endoscopic access (6%). Conclusions: It can be concluded that the most common cause of MAPs is trauma to the facial skeleton, and the most frequently used treatment method is endovascular embolization. Given the need for detailed MAP imaging and treatment in specialized invasive radiology departments, patients with MAPs should be treated in multidisciplinary clinical centers. Full article
