Vascular anomalies of head and neck

Abstract

Objective: To compare the frequency, pattern and treatment modalities of mandibular fracture. Methods: Study January 2012 to December 2016. Total 88 patients (61 males and 27 females) with mandible fracture. Result: Of the 88 patients road traffic accident was the common most cause. Age of the patients ranged from 1-70 years with 32 patients in their second decade, condyle was commonest (23 patients) followed by parasymphysis in 21 patients. Open reduction was done in 49 patients and observations in 3 patients. Conclusion: The common most cause of mandibular trauma is road traffic accident with condyle being the most common. With advances in bone plating and technique the paradigm is shifting towards the open reduction. http://dx.Enucleation alone and marsupialisation (Partsch operation) followed by enucleation have been the most common modalities for complete eradication of jaw bone cysts. However, it is sometimes difficult to do so when the location of the lesion cannot be easily accessed. Although Le Fort I osteotomy is a well-known procedure for correction of dentofacial deformities, it has also been applied in
