Area of Science:

  • Trauma surgery
  • Facial anatomy
  • Orthopedic surgery

Background:

  • Midfacial region (MR) fractures (MRFs) are complex due to surrounding anatomical structures.
  • Existing classification systems lack a scoring method for staging MRFs.
  • Standardized staging is crucial for inter-trauma center communication.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel staging system for midfacial fractures (MRFs).
  • To evaluate the correlation of the proposed classification with clinical variables.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a classification based on Le Fort's lines and seven facial units.
  • Retrospective study of 117 MRF cases.
  • Analysis of age, gender, clinical diagnosis, surgery type, and outcomes.

Main Results:

  • The proposed classification stages fractures from F in situ to F4 based on affected units.
  • Good correlation observed between the new classification and clinical variables.
  • The system demonstrated simplicity and precision in staging MRFs.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed classification offers a simple, precise method for staging MRFs.
  • It can effectively summarize MRFs for daily clinical practice.
  • Further multi-center studies are recommended to validate its effectiveness.
