“…In the YouTube studies published in the literature, the majority of the videos are uploaded from the USA 13,27–30 . Similar to these results, in our study, 36% of the videos whose country of origin could be determined were uploaded by users in the USA.…”

In 1983 Hashimoto 6 classified IPEH into (1) pure, deriving from dilatation of the vessels of the head-neck region; (2) mixed, deriving from previous vascular lesions such as aneurysms, arteriovascular malformations, and chronic venous pathologies; (3) extravascular, originating from a hematoma caused by previous trauma. The present case, like the other 4 described in the literature, seems to belong to the first type. Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia is more frequently found in the skin and subcutis, in fact diagnosing a Masson's tumor into the skeleton is very uncommon. The documented clinical cases occurred at the level of the skull, at the base of the skull, at the tibia, and on the fingers of the hand. 7 Komori et al 8 in 1984, described the first case of IPEH of the mandible, the patient did not report any symptoms and no mucosal lesions were evident. The second case concerned a lesion of the right mandibular branch was characterized by the presence of trismus and swelling with strong painful symptomatology. 7 Tanio et al, 2 reported a case localized in the anterior mandibular area, in which it presents a bone mass covered with healthy mucosa, also in this case the patient reported painful symptoms. The last case in literature describes the presence of a lesion of considerable size that caused an asymmetry of the face, with the involvement of the intraoral mucosa that was ulcerated, necrotic, and with areas of fungal infection. 3 In all the cases described above, the radiographic findings showed radiolucent multilocular areas, and, depending on the size, was possible to appreciate the involvement of the bone cortex.Considering the variability of the clinical manifestations and the symptomatology, it is fundamental to orientate correctly in the differential diagnosis. From radiographic images, it is necessary to carry out a differential diagnosis between osteolytic lesions with multilobulated appearances such as multicystic ameloblastoma, odontogenic keratocyst, and giant cell bone tumor and IPEH. 4,[9][10][11] Histologically, IPEH must be differentiated from malignant tumor such as angiosarcoma, malignant endovascular papilloma, due to their clinical and pathological similarities. 12 In particular, microscopically, IPEH presents itself as a vascular proliferation initially with coarse papillae with fibrin core, lined by of endothelial cells with plump appearance, in the late stage, fusing of the papillae give rise an anastomosing network of small vessel. At low-magnification, the lesion appears strongly confined to the lumen of a thrombus, in a fibrous pseudo-capsule, in an hematoma or in a large vessel. This feature is crucial for the differential diagnosis with angiosarcoma, because angiosarcomas are almost never confined to a vascular lumen. These findings alongside with the absence of nuclear atypia, cellular pleomorphism, atypical miosis, necrosis, and irregular vessels are also major features differentiating IPEH from angiosarcoma. 13,14 Surely bone surgery has made many steps forwa...

“…In the literature, there are studies that analyze the quality and viewing data of videos about various lesions in the oral region uploaded to YouTube. Some of these are about oral leukoplakia (Kovalski et al, 2019), oral cancers and precancerous lesions (Gulve et al, 2022), and lichen lesions (Morais et al, 2020; Romano et al, 2021), but as far as we noticed as a result of the literature review, this is the first study analyzing the videos uploaded to YouTube about oral candida lesions.…”

Objective: To evaluate the quality, source, usefulness and/or reliability, visibility, and popularity of YouTube™ videos on oral candidiasis. Materials and Methods:A YouTube™ search for "oral candidiasis" was performed, setting the English language. 133 of the 351 videos watched were included in the study.Two periodontologists scored the videos for visibility, popularity, quality, utility, and reliability. Videos' quality was evaluated using the DISCERN and the Global Quality Scale (GQS) tools, by categorizing them through quality assessment, source, duration, views, likes, and dislikes of each video were noted.Results: 82.7% of the videos were moderately or very useful, and the GQS scores were mostly good (41.4%-Score 4) and excellent (42.1%-Score 5). Significant relationships were obtained between Source of Upload, Video Type, Total Discern, and GQS variables and Usefulness scores (p < 0.05). The 53.4% of the video sources were Healthcare professionals and their video usefulness scores were mostly "moderately useful" (47.9%) and "very useful" (%42.3). There was a significant positive correlation between the usefulness scores of the videos and the number of likes (p = 0.004), comments (p = 0.019), and the viewing rate (p = 0.006). Conclusions:The videos that rank high in searches for oral candidiasis on YouTube™ are mostly useful and comprehensive videos uploaded for educational purposes.

“…Oral diseases represent high-trend topics for users, so that a Youtube TM query returns a large number of inherent items; nevertheless, visibility and popularity never match with valuable information [33]. The qualitative assessment of the video content is not widely homogeneous in the use of the interpretative tools: the majority of studies applied more than one tool, the most utilized ones being DISCERN [30,32,36,38] and usefulness score [30,31,35,37,39] (5 studies out of 10). Website scientific content evaluation still remains a demanding task; however, despite the assessment heterogeneity, the overall evaluation of the content quality of results is really poor, such that all included studies suggest implementation of scientific content or accurate reviews by experts in the field [33].…”

“…Thorny topics such as malignant disorders, such as oral cancer, require adequate information to help the patient find the most appropriate specialist in order to shorten the time for early diagnosis [31,32]. On the other hand, most videos uploaded by health professionals' channels show high quality content, demonstrating the platform's utility and reliability for the web community [36]. Most of the studies mentioned in this review also collected video demographic data concerning likes, dislikes, comments and number views; nevertheless, viewer's interaction has been interpreted in a heterogeneous way by the various authors, using different tools to calculate the engagement of the user.…”

“…No significant differences were highlighted in quality, usefulness and reliability according to the language used. Romano et al [36] analyzed the global quality score (GQS) and the DISCERN of the English videos resulting from searching "oral lichen planus" on the platform. The videos were also divided based on the information provider in the following categories: dentist/scientist featured, independent user, health information websites, patients featured, complementary/alternative promoting, and University channel.…”

Background: Oral medicine represents a complex branch of dentistry, involved in diagnosing and managing a wide range of disorders. YoutubeTM offers a huge source of information for users and patients affected by oral diseases. This systematic review aims to evaluate the reliability of YoutubeTM oral medicine-related content as a valid dissemination aid. Methods: The MeSH terms “YoutubeTM” and “oral” have been searched by three search engines (PubMed, ISI Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library), and a systematic review has been performed; the PRISMA checklist has been followed in the search operations. Results: Initial results were 210. Ten studies definitely met our selection criteria. Conclusions: YoutubeTM represents a dynamic device capable of easy and rapid dissemination of medical-scientific content. Nevertheless, the most of information collected in the literature shows a lack of adequate knowledge and the need to utilize a peer-reviewing tool in order to avoid the spreading of misleading and dangerous content.
