Several of these case reports are remarkable for the accurate observation of clinical symptoms and signs, the aetiology, the pathogenesis and their therapeutic approach in relation to prognosis. The Hippocratic authors report cases of <jats:italic>aphthae<\/jats:italic> as part of a polysystemic disease, described many centuries later by Beh\u00e7et and Adamantiades, while they associate features of splenomegaly from endemic malaria with gingivitis (<jats:italic>ulitis<\/jats:italic>). Benign lip ulcers, caused by sharp teeth bites, were distinguished from the difficult to treat herpes labialis (<jats:italic>herpes<\/jats:italic>) and from the necrotising <jats:italic>nomae<\/jats:italic>. Although staphylitis and angina <jats:italic>(kynanche<\/jats:italic>) were attributed to phlegm accumulation, they were recognised as true emergencies when they were associated with a swollen tongue and uvula. Several cases of <jats:italic>kynanche<\/jats:italic> with forward displacement of the first cervical vertebrae, atrophy of the uvula and oedema of the jaws are illustrated. A fatal outcome was anticipated in cases of <jats:italic>phagedaenic<\/jats:italic> ulcers of the teeth, causing necrosis and abscess formation. The therapeutic approach of oral diseases proceeded step by step, starting with simple regimens and progressing to invasive techniques, such as phlebotomy, surgical incisions for fluid drainage, and cauterisation. With the aim to avoid adverse events, special attention was paid to the correct timing of surgery and the maintenance of a patent airway with the insertion of small pharyngeal tubes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jop.12615","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,17]],"date-time":"2017-07-17T15:32:38Z","timestamp":1500305558000},"page":"689-694","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["The origins of oral medicine in the Hippocratic collected works"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"46","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7357-8290","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Helen","family":"Askitopoulou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesiology Faculty of Medicine University of Crete Heraklion Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vasileia","family":"Nyktari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesiology University Hospital of Heraklion Heraklion Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alexandra","family":"Papaioannou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesiology Faculty of Medicine University of Crete Heraklion Greece"},{"name":"Department of Anaesthesiology University Hospital of Heraklion Heraklion Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Georgios","family":"Stefanakis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesiology University Hospital of Heraklion Heraklion Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elina","family":"Konsolaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery University Hospital of Heraklion Heraklion Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","volume-title":"Protagoras (transl.
