Patients with chronic ITP (idiopathic thrombocytopenia) frequently do not require comprehensive medication for daily life. Usually, it had been regarded that postoperative bleeding after a simple or surgical extraction is easily controlled by simple local measures even in patients with ITP. This lack of regular medication usage can sometimes lead practitioners or patients to underestimate the potential life-threatening risk of ITP. There had been no report on postoperative hemorrhage in a patient with ITP related to dental implant surgery.
This report presented a life-threatening postoperative hemorrhage after dental implant surgery in an adult with chronic ITP and subsequent emergency management after severe bleeding and airway compromise.
The presented case emphasizes the thorough hematological evaluation of the patients even for patients who do not take any specific medications for asymptomatic, chronic ITP.
慢性特发性血小板减少性紫癜(ITP)患者日常生活通常不需要全面用药。通常认为,即使是ITP患者,简单或外科拔牙术后的出血通过简单的局部措施也易于控制。这种缺乏规律用药的情况有时会导致从业者或患者低估ITP潜在的危及生命的风险。此前尚无关于ITP患者种植牙手术术后出血的报道。
本报告介绍了一名患有慢性ITP的成年人种植牙手术后危及生命的术后出血情况,以及严重出血和气道受压后的后续紧急处理。
该病例强调,即使是无症状的慢性ITP且未服用任何特定药物的患者,也需要对其进行全面的血液学评估。
