Comparative Study of Osseous Alignment in Isolated Tripod Zygomatic Bone Fracture Osteosynthesis At Frontozygomatic Suture Versus Zygomaticomaxillary Suture

Abstract

Background: Zygomatic fractures constitute the second leading facial skeleton fractures, after fractures in the nasal bone. The treatment for zygomatic fractures has been more advanced with various treatment methods. Fixation has been used sporadically by few surgeons ZMC region at frontozygomatic suture and zygomatic buttress. Objective: To compare the osseous alignment in isolated tripod zygomatic bone fracture with onepoint osteosynthesis at frontozygomatic suture versus zygomaticomaxillary suture. Study Design: Comparative study.
