The Gillies method for fractured zygomas: An analysis of 105 cases

Zygomaticomaxillary Complex Fractures: A Review of 101 Cases

“…Age group of our study also conforms with the study of Adekeye [19], who found that out of 337 Nigerian patients with ZMC fractures, 80 % were between the age group of 21 and 40 years. Age group of our study was also similar with the work of Haider [20], Gomes Pereira et al [21], Courtney [9], Esben Kaastad [22] and Ogden [23]. According to the distribution of the cause of injury of the 101 patients selected for the study, RTA was the most common cause of the injury in 77 (76 %) patients while 13 (13 %) patients of the study population reported history of Assault, Fall in 9 (9 %) and others 2 (2 %).…”

“…SCH was a significant finding (100 %) which was seen in all the 101 patients., nearing approximately to a study done by Weisenbaug [23], who noted occurrence in 70.5 % of the patients. In the analysis of 2067 cases by Ellis et al [13] SCH occurred variably ranging from a surprising 20 % in zygomatic arch fractures to 65 % in those zygomatic fractures which had multiple lines of fracture.…”

Intra-operative application of ultrasonoghaphy (USG) for reduction of zygomatic arch fracture

“…The zygomatic arch fracture is commonly managed by indirect reduction without fixation which is done through various approaches like Gille's temporal approach [9], BalaSubrahmaniam upper buccal sulcus approach, Quinn approach [10] and Keen's lateral coronoid approach .The patient in the present case report is also managed by close reduction, but with the guidance of ultrasonogram to confirm the accurate reduction. Although gross swelling and emphysema make the ultrasonographic visualization of bony surfaces difficult, this problem of this was overcome by choosing an ultrasound frequency of 7.5 MHz or less.…”

Intra‐operative application of ultrasonography (USG) for reduction of zygomatic arch fracture

“…In this case report, the patient`s zygomatic arch fracture was observed clearly in USG (Figure 7). The zygomatic arch fracture is commonly managed by indirect reduction without fixation which is done through various approaches like Gille's temporal approach, 9 BalaSubrahmaniam upper buccal sulcus approach, Quinn approach, 7 and Keen's lateral coronoid approach. The patient in the present case report is also managed by close reduction, but with the guidance of ultrasonogram to confirm the accurate reduction.…”
