Treatment of Zygomatic Complex Fractures Using Two Point Fixation under General Anaesthesia

To evaluate the advantages and efficacy of two point mini plate fixation for the zygomatic complex fractures using lateral eye brow and infra orbital approaches for fixing the fronto zygomatic fracture and infra orbital fracture. The zygomatico-maxillary complex functions as the principle buttress of the face and is the cornerstone to an individual’s aesthetic appearance. The zygomatic complex also helps in transmitting the occlusal forces to the skull base. Zygomatic complex fractures are one of the frequently occurring maxillofacial injuries owing to its position and facial contour. Assaults, road traffic accidents and falls are the common causes leading to fracture of the zygomatic bone. Displacement of the fractured fragments leads to aesthetic and functional disturbances. Thorough anatomical knowledge is required to correct the deformity in a better way. Treatment modality is based on the type and severity of the fracture.
