Objective: Midfacial fracture is a fracture that separates maxilla from the middle part of face. Orbital floor fracture includes in midfacial fracture that difficult to treat. The aggravating factor of the treatment are depressed fractures and infection. We use ballooning technique which is inflated in the maxillary sinus to lift fracture segment of orbital floor and to prevent the orbital floor displaced to the maxillary sinus.Methods: There were multiple lacerations at left eye and nose region, post suturing at left zygoma and left cheek region. Intraoral findings there were multiple laceration, then the patient was examined a complete blood count, chest xray, cervical lateral examination, and 3D CT-Scan examination.Results: Examination of head and panoramic xray was performed and showed there was no bone discontinuity, contact and stable fracture segments. Examination of the 5th day post operative showed minimal pus drainage, leukocytes were within normal limits and other lab results were normal. Physical examination showed minimum scar, there was no dehiscence, symmetrical face and drain was performed at left zygoma region, symmetrical orbital, intact and stable occlusion.Conclusion: In this case, ballooning technique was successfully reduced the ruptured orbital floor and obtained good result.Keywords: Ballooning, Fixation, Open fracture, Orbital floor fracture.
Objective: Condyle fracture is a fracture that involves temporomandibular joint, resulting temporomandibular joint disorder. It often caused complications namely ankylosis and temporomandibular joint disorder. Trauma induced mandible fracture can leads to unilateral or bilateral condyle fracture. Method: Nine teen years old male came with mouth bleeding and pain on left lower jaw joint. Clinical examination showed laceration on right chin and left condyle fracture.Result: Management of patient to stitch laceration wound on chin region. Condyle fracture was treated conservatively using closed reduction method by arch bar and MMF rubber. Conclusion:Condyle fracture management needs a particular concern using closed method or conservative and open method or surgery. This present case chose closed method referring minimal displacement of condyle fracture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
