Missile War Injuries of the Craniofacial Region

Many factors govern the nature, severity, and outcome of missile war injuries and associated soft tissue damages. Managements of primary phase and trauma care have improved significantly. Many of these injured victims survived and require immediate care for primary phase management. Secondary phase was achieved by reconstruction of soft tissue by local, regional flaps, and bony defect by bone grafting.There is no consensus on timing of treatment of bone and soft tissue of missile war injuries.Currently, in Iraq, anti-government's protestors' movement for the last 3 months mainly unemployed young people demanding for human rights has resettled in 22,000 people being injured. This includes more than 600 young men who were assassinated by unknown killers through confrontation with security and police men using tear gas canisters and sound bombs. The demonstrators used mini cars (Tuck Tuck) for attacking policemen and security people and used them for transferring injured demonstrators as ambulance to a special tent in the Tahrir Square for receiving first aid.
