THE EFFECTIVENESS OF POSTOPERATIVE REHABILITATION METHODS IN PATIENTS WITH PURULENT-NECROTIC COMPLICATIONS IN THE MAXILLOFACIAL REGION ASSOCIATED WITH SYSTEMIC VASCULITIS

Purulent-necrotic complications that arise in the maxillofacial region against the background of systemic vasculitis are characterized by a severe clinical course, tissue ischemia and destruction, prolonged inflammation, infectious risk associated with immunosuppressive therapy, and delayed wound healing. Therefore, postoperative rehabilitation in such patients is of particular clinical importance. According to current literature, ANCA-associated vasculitis is a rare but life-threatening disease. Changes in the oral cavity and maxillofacial region, particularly in granulomatosis with polyangiitis, can sometimes be one of the earliest signs of the disease. Furthermore, the risk of local infection and delayed healing increases following invasive dental and maxillofacial procedures in the context of immunosuppression.
