Bleeding during and after dental extractions in patients with liver cirrhosis
2018, International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Although all scientific works on dental surgery in cirrhotic patients have pointed to the necessity to perform platelet count and PT/INR before surgical procedures, none of them found any correlation between bleeding and the laboratory tests performed25–29. The premise that platelet count below 50,000 can lead to haemorrhagic events in cirrhotic patients, which thus should be treated before surgical procedures19–24, may be misleading. In our treatment centre, the thrombocytopenic patients on the liver transplant waiting list are not submitted to blood transfusion before tooth extraction.
Medically compromised children

2006, Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial SurgeryCitation Excerpt :They proposed that only absolutely necessary extractions be carried out prior to transplantation and for other definitive measures to be postponed until after transplantation when liver function has stabilized.7 Other authors have recommended more aggressive treatment algorithms.8,9 Multiple local and systemic techniques have been proposed to assist in obtaining hemostasis in liver failure patients after surgical procedures (including dental extractions).
Dental management of the (solid) organ transplant patient
2003, Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology, and EndodonticsCitation Excerpt :Prophylactic antibiotic therapy, especially during biliary tract manipulation in these patients, has been effective in the prevention of systemic infection.57-59 Postoperative guidelines for recipients of solid-organ transplants frequently advise medication with antibiotics before dental procedures,10,60-65 but there are no evidence-based data from controlled clinical trials to support this recommendation, nor is a consensus evident. One reference that is cited as a basis for premedication is a report of 22 patients with nonlymphocytic leukemias who developed periodontal and dental infections in conjunction with chemotherapy-induced neutropenia.66
