“…In addition, the elasticity of the skeleton during the development process, with its relatively small size when compared with the cranium, may also explain a low prevalence of facial trauma . A European multicenter prospective study on the epidemiology of pediatric maxillofacial trauma showed that facial injuries were rare before the age of 5 years, with a progressive increase in incidence at the start of school age and during adolescence …”

Background/Aims Very few studies have been performed to evaluate cranio‐maxillofacial trauma diagnosed in hospitals in children and adolescents. The aim of this study was to perform an analysis of oral and cranio‐maxillofacial trauma in the aforementioned population. Materials and Methods A hospital‐based retrospective study, which reviewed 1438 patient records, was conducted at the “Teresina Emergency Hospital”, Brazil. Data regarding demographics, day of the week on which trauma occurred, type of injury, etiology, anatomic trauma site, time of hospital admission, and associated comorbidities (or injuries) were collected. Results There were 1092 (75.9%) males and 346 (24.1%) females. The largest group was adolescents aged between 13 and 18 years (956, 66.5%). The majority lived in urban areas (69%). Trauma occurred most frequently during the week. The most prevalent etiology was road traffic accidents involving motorcycles (771, 53.6%) causing facial and skull fractures (598, 41%). The most prevalent soft tissue lesions were facial abrasions (49%), followed by injuries to the cheek (16.7%). Comorbidities associated with craniofacial trauma were present in 82%, with complications from traumatic brain injuries being the most prevalent (65.6%) Dental trauma was recorded in only 81 cases (5.6%). Conclusion Male adolescents living in urban areas were most affected by craniofacial trauma. The most common cause was road traffic accidents involving motorcycles, resulting in facial and skull fractures. Complications from traumatic brain injuries were the most common associated injuries.

“…The distribution of injuries between seasons can be explained by the fact that in the summer and spring there is a longer daytime and good weather, which allow longer and more dangerous outdoor activities with a higher chance for injury . The Poriya MC is located near the largest lake in Israel and this may explain why the tourist population show the highest incidence of injuryin the summer months.…”

“…Previous retrospective studies reveal that facial trauma has a higher incidence in boys compared to girls, and the primary causes are falls, violence, and motor vehicle accidents, and the prevalence varies according to the geographic region researched. 6,7 In children, the incidence and etiology are also affected by agerelated activities. Soft tissue injuries are more frequent than facial fractures and dentoalveolar trauma.…”
