Abstract:

Many people were affected by COVID-19 in its severe form. Some intercurrences are still emerging. We here report two cases of COVID-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (CRONJ). Two retrospective cases were admitted into Imam Reza Hospital, Mashhad, Iran with suspected CRONJ. One patient escaped from hospital while the other showed a positive result after our proposed treatment. A new aftermath to COVID-19 infections is emerging. Maxillofacial and orthopedic surgeons should be aware of this situation. CRONJ should be on the suspect list in patients with COVID-19. Measures that are useful in the treatment carried out, as well as some measures recommended in the literature, were discussed. Surgical treatment of CRONJ appears to be an effective alternative, especially in the more aggressive cases.
