Mandibular Fractures, Diagnostics, Postoperative Complications
Journal of Medical Sciences. March 23, 2020 - Volume 8 | Issue 13. Electronic-ISSN: 2345-0592 Medical Sciences 2020 Vol. 8 (13), p. 45-52 e-ISSN: 2345-0592 Medical Sciences Online issue Indexed in Index Copernicus Official website: www.medicsciences.com Mandibular fractures, diagnostics, postoperative complications Shahaf Givony1 1 Lithuanian University of Health Sciences. Academy of Medicine. Faculty of Odonthology. ABSTRACT Mandibular fractures usually happen among young males at the age of 16-30 years old. The mandible which has been rated as the second facial bone with the highest rate of injuries, tends to break much more often compared to any other bone of the cranium and represent up to 70% of the cases. This tendency to fracture may be explained by the protruded position, mobility and particular shape of it. The tendency for a mandibular fracture may also be explained by the common risk factors such as vehicle accidents and physical violence that are part of our daily life. There are many other risk factors according to the literature which differ between individuals due to the different socio-economic status, culture, technology and environment. Before the clinical examination of the fracture, it is obligatory to make sure that a clear airway path presents with no other fatal injuries. The examination may be supported by imaging methods which together will approve the diagnosis and method of treatment. Patients with a fracture of the mandible may suffer from post-operative complications which may occur after a short or long duration of the treatment. Those complications may be malocclusion, infections, trismus, damaged teeth and soft tissue, esthetic disfiguration, functional problems, pain and many more. -

Read Full License Page 1/12 Abstract Background: Posterior pilon fracture is a type of ankle fracture associated with poorer treatment results compared to the conventional ankle fracture. This is partly related to the lack of consensus on the classication, approach selection, and internal xation method for this type of fracture. This study aimed to investigate the clinical ecacy of posterolateral approach versus extended modied posteromedial approach for surgical treatment of posterior pilon fracture. Methods: Data of 67 patients with posterior pilon fracture who received xation with a buttress plate between January 2015 and December 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients received steel plate xation through either the posterolateral approach (n = 35, group A) or the extended modied posteromedial approach (n = 32, group B). Operation time, intraoperative blood loss, excellent and good rate of reduction, fracture healing time, American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) Ankle- Hindfoot Scale score, and Visual Analogue Scale score were compared between groups A and B. -
Pattern of Skeletal Injuries in Child Physical Abuse

Design: Retrospective. Setting: Child Protection Unit at Salmaniya Medical Complex. Method: Child’s characteristics, type of skeletal injuries, location, pattern, radiological findings, and associated other injuries of 36 children were reviewed. Data management and analysis was done using SPSS for Windows, version 18. Result: Thirty-six children with skeletal injuries resulting from child physical abuse were seen from 1991 to 2009. Twenty-three (64%) were males and 13 (36%) were females; the mean age was 3.8 years. Twenty-three (64%) were ≤ 3 years old. Multiple fractures were documented in 19 (53%) children. Bone fracture types and frequency were as follow: 10 (28%) affecting the femur, 9 (25%) skull, 8 (22%) humerus, 6 (17%) rib, 4 (11%) radius, 4 (11%) ulna and 2 (6%) tibia. Other bones less frequently affected were mandible, nasal bone, vertebral, metatarsals, and calcaneus fractures. In addition, other injuries included slipped femoral epiphysis, large bilateral hematoma in vastus lateralis, and full thickness tendon Achilles tear. Hundred percent of rib, ulnar, radial and tibial fractures were in children under one year old. In addition, 7 (78%) of skull fractures, 5 (62%) of humerus fractures, and 5 (50) of femur fractures were under one year old. -

Majority of parasymphysis fractures are due to direct blow or injury to the chin region. Specific signs and symptoms for parasymphysis fracture are pain, swelling, tenderness in the chin region, deranged occlusion, soft tissue injury to chin and the lower lip and sublingual hematoma. Frank Coleman considered a sublingual hematoma as “almost pathognomonic of fracture of the mandible”. We present a case that fails to replicate this hallmark sign associated with a mandibular fracture, as the patient had all the signs and symptoms of parasymphysis fracture except sublingual hematoma which is very rare and unusual to observe. The final diagnosis was made on the basis of radiographic examination using CBCT scan. On surgical exposure the mandibular parasymphysis fracture in the region of right lateral incisor and canine was confirmed. -
