Comparison of infraorbital nerve recovery after open and closed reduction of zygomaticomaxillary complex fractures

Abstract: <p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fracture is quite commonly seen fracture in the road side accidents (RTA). It is the second most common fracture after nasal bone fractures. Infraorbital nerve is almost always involved with ZMC fractures which can be treated with open reduction and internal fixation or closed reduction.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong> The aim of this study was to compare the recovery of… Show more

“…A study carried out by Ishaq et al in 2018 observed similar mean age of 36.5±11.1 years. They also reported similar higher proportion (66.0%) of 31-45 years age group among such patients [10]. Another study done by Noor et alalso reported similar mean age of 37.4±3.8 years in patients presenting at FMH College of Medicine and Dentistry, Lahore [11].…”

“…[19] A recent study compared the recovery of infraorbital nerve paresthesia following open reduction and internal fixation verses closed reduction in the management of ZMC fractures, it was reported infraorbital nerve recovery in patients treated with open reduction and internal fixation was found 74%. [20] In comparison with the current study this will be in favour for the intraoral approach for infraorbital rim reduction and fixation as dissection, tunnelling ,direct reduction and fixation around the infraorbital nerve were beneficial in decompression and repair to the nerve.…”

“…Face, head, and neck injuries are rather prevalent, although the pathogenesis of maxillofacial wounds has gotten comparatively little emphasis in the general trauma literature. 1 The predominance of the zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) in the facial frame is one of the most prevalent causes of facial trauma, accounting for 45 percent of all midfacial and 25% of all facial fractures. 2,3 The zygomatic bone figured the protrusion of the cheek, which increases the risk of fracture, and infraorbital nerve damage is frequently implicated in trauma to the zygomatic complex, leading in sensory dispersion of the region activated by it.…”
