Coronal approach to zygomaticomaxillary complex fractures.
OBJECTIVE Trauma of the zygomaticomaxillary complex constitutes 45% of all midface fractures. In the author's medical unit, the proportion is 40% of all fractures of the facial skeleton. Most zygomaticomaxillary complex fractures can be treated via local incisions, however; multiple, comminuted and late fractures require wide exposure of the fragments in order to adequately reposition them and ...
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...

متن کاملSurgical management of complex humerus head fractures
The locked plate systems provided adequate fixation of osteoporotic fractures of the proximal humerus in the elderly. But is the PHILOS plate adequate for stabilization of high-energy fractures, and fracture-dislocations of the proximal humerus in relatively younger age populations? In this retrospective study, performed at a referral, academic supervised, level III-trauma center, all high-ener...
