Delayed-Onset Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Infection at 18 Months after Absorbable Plate Fixation for Zygomaticomaxillary Complex Fracture
None of the reports of delayed infection mentioned a latent period exceeding 13 months. we report an infection that developed 18 months after implantation of an absorbable plate. A 16-year-old adolescent girl had undergone reduction and fixation with an absorbable plate for Lefort I and zygomaticomaxillary complex fractures 18 months prior at our hospital. In her most recent hospital visit as a...

متن کاملAbsorbable Plate-Related Infection after Facial Bone Fracture Reduction
Absorbable plates are used widely for fixation of facial bone fractures. Compared to conventional titanium plating systems, absorbable plates have many favorable traits. They are not palpable after plate absorption, which obviates the need for plate removal. Absorbable plate-related infections are relatively uncommon at less than 5% of patients undergoing fixation of facial bone fractures. The ...
متن کاملThree-point fixation of displaced tripod zygomaticomaxillary complex fracture: a modified surgical technique
Displaced tripod zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fractures are generally treated with open reduction and 3-point rigid internal fixation at the frontozygomatic suture, zygomaticomaxillary buttress, and inferior orbital rim. However, a clinical dilemma still exists in the postoperative morbidities such as ectropion of the lower eyelid and palpability of the Ti-plate at the inferior orbital rim...
متن کاملSurgical Methods of Zygomaticomaxillary Complex Fracture
BACKGROUND Zygoma is a major buttress of the midfacial skeleton, which is frequently injured because of its prominent location. Zygoma fractures are classified according to Knight and North based on the direction of anatomic displacement and the pattern created by the fracture. In zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fracture many incisions (lateral eyebrow, lateral upper blepharoplasty, transconj...
