“…In spite of that MVA is the most common cause of trauma in both adults and children, fall was the cause in 17.5% of the pediatric group and was not reported as a cause in the adult group (Table 1). Near results were also detected by Atilgan et al [16] and Arvind et al [13], while Jung et al [17] and Bharadwaj [18] found that fall was the most common cause.…”

Objective To study, compare, and analyze the differences and the detailed features of the maxillofacial fractures in adults versus children. Patients and methods This prospective comparative study was conducted on patients who had traumatic maxillofacial fractures. Patients were categorized into 2 groups: the pediatric group and the adult group. History taking including the type of trauma, examination, computed tomography (CT) maxillofacial, fracture management, and outcome evaluation was done for all patients. Results Within included 82 patients (42 adults, 40 children), males were the most affected in adult and pediatric groups and the most affected age was between 19 and 27 years (29.2%). Motor vehicle accident (MVA) was the most common cause in both the adult group (66.66%) and the pediatric group (60%). But fall represents a significant cause in children (17.5%) with a significant difference between the two groups (p = 0.038). The mandibular fracture was the most common fracture in pediatric (65%) and adult (38.1%) groups with a significant difference between both groups regarding different sites of trauma (p = 0.017). Surgical intervention was performed in 80% of pediatric patients and 92.23% with a significant difference (p = 0.035). Conclusion MVA is the main etiology of maxillofacial fractures in children and adults, but fall is an important cause of pediatric trauma. Pediatric maxillofacial fractures below school age are a rare event with increasing incidence with age. Mandibular fractures are the most common site in the adult and pediatric populations. Most cases of maxillofacial fractures are surgically treated with OR/IF with good results but conservative management is used more in pediatric than adult fractures.

“…(Youssef et al, 2018;Imahara et al, 2008;Vyas et al, 2008) Pacientes com essas fraturas, muitas vezes requerem acompanhamento cuidadoso para futuras deformidades faciais secundárias a lesões do centro de crescimento, particularmente do septo nasal e côndilo mandibular e outros déficits de longo prazo (Bhardwaj e Kumar, 2015). Portanto, quando indicado o tratamento cirurgico de fraturas faciais pediatricas, este deve ser feito de maneira adequada e oportuna, a fim de evitar consequências no crescimento e desenvolvimento da criança (Bhardwaj & Kumar, 2015;Youssef et al, 2018).…”

As fraturas de face em crianças exibem características únicas e diferenciáveis, sendo o manejo individualizado desde o diagnóstico, passando pelo tratamento, até a proservação do caso. Tais fraturas podem desencadear consequências significativas, como deformidades e comprometimento facial, possuindo a diferenciação com a população adulta especialmente quanto a quesitos anatômicos e sociais. Os principais objetivos no tratamento de fraturas de face em pacientes pediátricos são restauração da funcionalidade e proporcionar união óssea preservando o potencial de crescimento facial. Quando possível uma abordagem não cirúrgica deve ser indicada, porém em casos que necessitem de redução cirúrgica e fixação interna este tratamento deve ser realizado utilizando técnica cirúrgica menos traumática. O acompanhamento a longo prazo é recomendado para adequada avaliação da funcionalidade e estética final alcançados. O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar o caso clínico de um paciente pediátrico que evoluiu com fratura bilateral de mandíbula após acidente automobilístico, tradado de forma cirúrgica.

“…In the studies analyzed, mean age was 10.2 years, demonstrating a greater occurrence of facial trauma in adolescence, as reported previously ( 23 , 24 ). This type of trauma generally occurs as a child becomes more independent from family life and has greater contact with contact sports, urban violence or physical aggression at school or on the street ( 2 , 25 , 26 ).…”
