    Facial deformities from zygomatic complex fractures can be corrected using Proplast implants. This article details the surgical technique and case studies for malunited zygomatic complex reconstruction.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

    Background:

    • Zygomatic complex fractures frequently result in facial deformities.
    • Malunion of these fractures necessitates reconstructive surgical interventions.

    Observation:

    • Proplast implants offer a viable solution for correcting malunited zygomatic complex deformities.
    • Surgical technique, indications, and patient work-up are crucial for successful outcomes.

    Findings:

    • The placement of Proplast implants effectively addresses cosmetic and functional deficits.
    • Three illustrative cases demonstrate the successful application of this surgical approach.

    Implications:

    • This technique provides a method for restoring facial symmetry and function after complex fractures.
