[Clinical analysis of 35 patients with orbital maxillary zygoma complex fractures]
1Department of Otolaryngology, Second Teaching Hospital, Fujian Medical University, Quanzhou 362000.
Objective:
To assess the treatment result of reposition and fixation to orbital maxillary zygoma complex fractures.
Method:
The records of 35 patients, who were treated in 1996-1998 at our hospital, were analyzed retrospectively. The patients of open fracture operated debridement, at the same time, operated reposition and fixation. The patients of closed fracture operated hairline approach and sublabial approach or use two approach for reposition and fixation.
Result:
We had 35 patients of operation. After operation, two of them had malocclusion, one of them had facial deformity, two of them had restriction of mouth opening. The treatment results of the rest appeared to be reasonably satisfactory.
Conclusion:
To know topographic anatomy, earlier reposition and sturdy fixation is the key for curing orbital maxillary zygoma complex fractures.
