- W2188507640 abstract "OBJECTIVE: To present the experience of characteristics and management of facial fractures ina tertiary care Hospital in Islamabad, Pakistan.METHODS: Study was conducted in the department of Plastic Surgery at Pakistan Institute ofMedical Sciences, Islamabad, Pakistan from January 2002 to December 2003. Only adult patientsof either sex were included who presented with facial fractures. Patients below 12 yearsof age and those having only facial lacerations were excluded. In all cases, plain X-rays, OPG(Orthopantomogram), Water’s view and CT scan (in more severe cases) were obtained. Majorityof the patients was operated on routine operation days (Monday to Saturday). All other fractureswere managed by Open Reduction Internal Fixation (ORIF) via intra-oral approach (gingivobuccalincision). Only those fractures were approached from the external wound when thewound lied on the line of fracture.RESULTS: Total 133 fractures were noted in 96 patients. Most of the patients were males (76%)with a male to female ratio of 3.1:1. Mean age of the patients was 36.5 years (range 13 – 79years). The commonest cause was road traffic accident (53.1%) followed by assault (21.9%).Mandible was the commonest facial bone to be involved (59.4%).. Various associated injurieswere also noted in these patients with facial lacerations (29.9%) being the most common. Varioustreatment modalities were employed including Maxillo-Mandibular Fixation (n=37), lagscrews (n=21), microplates (n=23). The most frequent complication was pain and or lower lipparaesthesia.CONCLUSION: Patients with these injuries must undergo early interventions including reductionand stabilization of fractures. Moreover, ORIF should also be undertaken wherever possiblenot through an external approach but the intraoral approach." @default.
