Abstract
- For the earlier diagnosis and treatment of delayed wound healing in extraction socket, we investigated the clinical, radiographic and histopathologic features of 106 patients with delayed wound healing diagnosed by biopsy. The patients were enrolled at the Department of Oral Pathology, Chosun University Dental Hospital.
Among 106 delayed wound healing diagnosed by biopsy, cysts showed most significant 25 cases (23%), osteomyelitis showed 13 cases (12%), chronic maxillary sinusitis and squamous cell carcinoma showed 12 (11%) and 11 (10%) cases, respectively. We have analyzed these lesions through relevant literatures.
