This document discusses fractures of the middle third of the face and mandible. It begins by outlining the boundaries and structures that make up the middle third of the face. It then describes the three types of Lefort fractures - Lefort I, II, and III - providing details on their characteristics, signs and symptoms, and treatment approaches. The document also discusses fractures of the zygomatic complex, mandible classifications and treatments. It concludes by covering potential complications from maxillofacial injuries.

Al-Azhar University. The Pathogenesis of infection in oro-facial region due to odontogenic origin is a common clinical issue. bacterial invasion to deeper tissues usually a spread from diseased dental pulp. Recent evidences indicated a multi-microbial nature. The spread of infection is governed by the thickness of the investing bone and the anatomical relation of the tooth root to the attached muscle. Infection could spread from one facial space to another, and the condition may be aggravated to life threatening situations.

Slides prepared by highly experienced ENT teacher, Dr. Krishna Koirala from Nepal , for teaching undergraduate and postgraduate MBBS students in the field of otorhinolaryngology. A clear and concise explanation of the basic concepts in the subject matter concerned.
one of the vast and difficult topic to present for an mbbs student, so this is a brief presentation regarding otorhinolaryngology aspects of facial trauma
Zygoma : strong buttress of lateral midface Lying between Zygomatic processes of frontal bone and maxilla
High Incidence of ZMC Fracture Related to it’s prominent position within the facial skeleton.
Protects the globe of the eye and separates the orbital contents from temporal fossa and maxillary sinus
Forms the lateral part of the orbit.
Origin to masseter muscle.
Transmits part of the masticatory forces to cranium.
Absorbs impact forces before it reaches brain.
Zygomaticotemporal suture
Zygomaticomaxillary suture
Frontozygomatic suture
Zygomaticosphenoidal suture
Thick, strong, quadrilateral Shape bone, with an outer convex (cheek) surface and inner concave ( temporal) surface.
It forms the point of greater prominence of cheek.
It resembles four sided pyramid which has Temporal,orbital ,maxillary and frontal processes
Zygoma articulates 4 bones-
Frontal
Sphenoid
Maxillary
Temporal
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
