[Compression plate osteosynthesis in infected mandibular fractures].

H Beckers, V Freitag

    Deutsche Zahnarztliche Zeitschrift
    |November 1, 1978
    PubMed
    Summary

    Self-compromising osteosynthesis plates effectively treated infected mandibular fractures in 19 patients. While fractures healed well, delayed bone healing was observed, aligning with general traumatology findings for infected fractures.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Infectious Disease Management

    Context:

    • Infected fractures of the mandible present significant treatment challenges.
    • Established protocols for managing such complex fractures are crucial.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of self-compromising osteosynthesis plates in treating infected mandibular fractures.
    • To assess fracture consolidation, complication rates, and healing times.

    Summary:

    • Nineteen patients with infected mandibular fractures were treated with immediate stabilization using self-compromising osteosynthesis plates.
    • Abscess drainage and antibiotic therapy were concurrently administered.
    • All fractures achieved consolidation with minimal complications, though delayed bony healing was radiologically noted.

    Impact:

    • This study demonstrates the successful application of self-compromising osteosynthesis plates for infected mandibular fractures.
    • Findings support the use of this technique in conjunction with standard infection control measures.
    • The results contribute to the understanding of fracture healing in the context of infection in maxillofacial trauma.
