This study examined epidemiological data on 30 patients with mandibular fractures from an Iraqi hospital over 2 years. The majority of patients were male (73.3%) between 15-30 years old (56.6%). Road traffic accidents were the most common cause of injury (43.3%). Radiographic examination, including CT scans, were used to classify fractures by location. The most frequent sites were the body (36.6%), angle (23.3%), and symphysis/parasymphysis (20%). This retrospective research aims to provide insight into patterns of mandibular fractures in the Iraqi population.
This document discusses condylar fractures, which are the most common type of mandibular fractures. It provides detailed classifications of condylar fractures including location, degree of displacement, and relationship to surrounding structures. Treatment options are also summarized, including functional treatment for non-displaced fractures, maxillomandibular fixation for some displaced fractures, and open reduction with internal fixation for more severely displaced fractures. Surgical approaches and fixation methods for open reduction are also outlined.
Zygoma: Strong buttress of lateral midface lying between zygomatic process of frontal bone and maxilla.
The high incidence of zygomatic complex fracture relates to its prominent position within the facial skeleton.
This document summarizes a study of 20 patients treated for isolated mandibular fractures over one year. The majority of fractures were in the body of the mandible. Patients were treated with miniplate fixation, intraosseous wiring, or reconstruction plating with bone grafting and miniplates. Outcomes were generally good with miniplate fixation showing fewer complications like malocclusion or delayed union compared to other methods. The study concluded that miniplate osteosynthesis provides rigid fixation and good long-term results for displaced mandibular fractures.

1. There are three types of mandibular growth rotation: total rotation, matrix rotation, and intramatrix rotation. Total rotation refers to the rotation of the mandibular body, matrix rotation refers to the rotation of the soft tissue matrix, and intramatrix rotation refers to the difference between total and matrix rotation.
2. Most people (80%) are anterior rotators, meaning their mandible rotates forward during growth. The remaining 20% are posterior rotators, with backward rotation. Anterior rotators can be further classified into three types depending on the center of rotation.
3. Structural features like condylar inclination and mandibular shape indicate whether a person will be an anterior or posterior rot
Mandible fractures are common facial injuries that can be treated with either closed or open reduction methods depending on the severity and location of the fracture. Closed reduction using maxillomandibular fixation is preferred for non-displaced or favorable fractures in children and adults. Open reduction with rigid internal fixation using plates, screws, or external fixation is used for displaced, unfavorable, or comminuted fractures. Condylar fractures may be treated with closed reduction for children but often require open reduction in adults due to higher risk of complications from malunion. Immediate postoperative mobilization after open reduction has been shown to have similar outcomes to traditional maxillomandibular fixation.
This document discusses mandibular fractures, including:
- Mandibular fractures are most commonly seen in the body and subcondylar regions.
- Factors like the direction of force, anatomy of the mandible and attached muscles, and age influence the site and displacement of fractures.
- Common signs and symptoms include swelling, pain, step deformities, and malocclusion.
- Treatment involves closed or open reduction and fixation to restore functional alignment while the bone heals. Methods include intermaxillary fixation with arch bars or cap splints, or open reduction with wiring or plate osteosynthesis.
This document provides an overview of mandibular fractures, including anatomy, causes, classifications, signs and symptoms, diagnosis, and management. It describes the mandible bone and surrounding structures in detail. Common causes of mandibular fractures include motor vehicle accidents, assaults, and falls. Fractures are often classified based on location, number of fragments, occlusion, and other factors. Clinical exam may reveal swelling, pain, tooth mobility or avulsion, and malocclusion. Treatment options include closed or open reduction depending on the fracture type and stability. Closed reduction techniques like intermaxillary fixation or external pin fixation aim to realign fragments without surgery.
This document discusses the classification and treatment of mandibular condylar fractures. It notes that condylar fractures account for 25-35% of all mandibular fractures and discusses various classification systems over time, from Brophy in 1915 to more recent subclassifications. Treatment options discussed include maxillomandibular fixation, functional therapy without fixation, and open reduction with or without internal fixation. Factors favoring nonsurgical treatment and potential complications of both early/concurrent and late management are also summarized.

1. The zygomatic complex fractures are common mid-face injuries that often involve displacement of the zygomatic bone inwards. Clinical signs include periorbital swelling and ecchymosis.
2. Treatment involves closed or open reduction and fixation of the fractured bone fragments to restore normal facial contours and orbital anatomy. Methods include temporal, infraorbital, or coronal approaches.
3. Naso-orbital-ethmoid fractures are severe injuries involving the nasal bones and medial orbital walls. Surgical management focuses on exploration, debridement, reduction, and stabilization of fractures along with repair of associated injuries like detached medial canthi.

Fractures, bone healing & principles of tx. of fracturesSimba Syed
This document discusses fractures and bone healing. It begins by providing statistics on common fractures, noting that fractures of the extremities are most common and the rates differ between age groups and sexes. It then describes different types of fractures based on the force and displacement. The document outlines the process of bone healing in four stages. It also discusses evaluating and treating fractures, including determining if reduction is needed, how to hold the reduction through various fixation methods, and indicators that a fracture has fully healed. Complications of fractures are noted. The goal is to restore optimal function while preventing issues and allowing early rehabilitation.

The document provides information on the treatment of acetabular fractures. It discusses the goals of treatment as anatomic restoration to prevent posttraumatic arthritis. Initial management involves skeletal traction to allow soft tissue healing and maintenance of limb length and reduction. Non-operative treatment is indicated for minimally displaced fractures that maintain head congruency. Operative treatment is needed for unstable or incongruous fractures. Surgical approaches discussed include the Kocher-Langenbeck and ilioinguinal approaches.
Mandibular fractures are common injuries that result from facial trauma. The document discusses the history, anatomy, classification, examination, and treatment of mandibular fractures. Key points include that mandibular fractures were first described in ancient Egyptian medical texts, occur most often in males ages 20-30 from vehicular accidents or assaults, and can be classified based on location, number of fragments, involvement of teeth, and direction of the fracture. Radiographic examination including panoramic x-rays are important for diagnosis.
This document provides information on fractures of the tibia. It begins with definitions of fractures and their various classifications. The causes of tibial fractures include direct forces, indirect forces, twisting, bending, and pathological fractures. Fracture patterns include transverse, oblique, spiral, impacted, comminuted, and compression fractures. Treatment options for tibial fractures depend on the fracture type and include casting, intramedullary nailing, plating, and external fixation. Complications can include nonunion, malunion, infection, and hardware failure. Open fractures require urgent debridement and antibiotics to prevent infection.
This document discusses condylar fractures, including signs and symptoms, diagnostic aids, imaging techniques, treatment protocols, and surgical approaches. Common signs are pain, limited jaw movement, muscle spasms, jaw deviation, and malocclusion. Diagnostic aids include panoramic x-rays, CT scans, and MRI. Treatment may involve physical therapy, closed reduction with jaw fixation, open reduction with plates or screws, or endoscopic-assisted reduction. Surgical approaches for open reduction are preauricular for the condylar head or retromandibular for the neck.
This document discusses tibial pilon fractures, which involve fractures of the distal tibial articular surface. Key points include:
1) The term "tibial pilon" was first used in 1911 to describe the distal tibia resembling a pestle. Pilon fractures account for 7-10% of tibial fractures and usually result from high-energy mechanisms.
2) Classification systems include the Rüedi-Allgöwer system (based on articular displacement/comminution) and the AO/OTA system (which further subdivides based on extra-articular involvement and comminution).
3) Treatment involves restoring tibial alignment, stabilizing the fracture to facilitate union,
This document discusses the treatment of acetabular fractures. The goal of treatment is anatomic restoration of the articular surface to prevent posttraumatic arthritis. Initial management involves skeletal traction to allow soft tissue healing and maintenance of reduction. Non-operative treatment is indicated for minimally displaced fractures, while operative treatment is used for unstable or incongruous fractures. Surgical approaches include the Kocher-Langenbeck approach for posterior fractures and the ilioinguinal approach for anterior fractures. Proper evaluation of the fracture pattern is important for selecting the best treatment approach.
This document provides information on condylar fractures of the mandible. It begins with an introduction stating that condylar fractures account for 17.5-52% of mandibular fractures and can cause functional issues with occlusion, mastication and speech. It then covers the surgical anatomy of the temporomandibular joint and condyle, including the articular disc, capsule, ligaments, muscles, vascularization and nerve innervation. Various classification systems for condylar fractures are also described. The document emphasizes that the unique functional anatomy and challenges of surgery of these fractures can lead to various patient outcomes.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

dislocation may be medial or lateral and is rarely ant. or post.
Walker, JOMS 1988 Discussion: open reduction of condylar # of the mandible in conjunction with repair of discal injury: a preliminary report
Most patients fail to develop adequate neuromuscular adaptations to allow maintenance of normal occlusion. In such pts. Assistance in maintaining the normal position of the mandible is necessary and this is where occlusal control with either MMf or elastics comes in. such measures help maintain a normal occlusion and mandibular positon until a new articulation is formed.
First described [1934] – Risdon
Skin incision is 4-5cm in length, 2cm below the angle of the mandible
Optimally placed within the skin crease
Caution – Look for MARGINAL MANDIBULAR NERVE
Surgical field – Extend upto atleast corner of mouth and lower lip anteriorly and ear or ear lobule posteriorly
In cases with shortening of the vertical ramal height incision should be 2 cm below the anticipated position of the inferior border after reduction
Indication – Angle/Body fractures, Subcondylar #
It is a modification of submandibular incision, so Kruger (1990) discussed it under same heading. Here the submandibular incision is extended posteriorly and curved in best cosmetic confirmity with angle of mandible later being the posterior terminus of incision. Anterior terminus remains corresponding to point of entrance of facial artery in face (Rongetti, 1954). Kruger (1990) and Thoma (1963) keep this incision 2 cm below inferior border of mandible for the same reasons i.e. marginal mandibular nerve passes maximum 1 cm below inferior margin of mandible.
Begins approximately 1 cm below the lobe of ear and 1 cm posterior to ramus of mandible. Parotid is retracted anteriorly and fibres of masseter are separated bluntly along their vertical course to reach underlying ramus. The location of incision is such that it is aesthetically more pleasing.
Two ways –
transection of parotid gl.
No transection
Studied the anatomy and various surgical approaches for treating the mandibular condyle.
Presented advantages and disadvantages of preauricular, submandibular, retromandibular, intraoral and rhytidectomy approaches and concluded that retromandibular approach is advantageous over others in that
Advantages
Camouflages the scar especially in patients with hypertrophic tendencies
Disadvantage
Auricular stenosis
Contraindications
Joint infection
Chronic otitis externa
Technique
Incision is placed 3-4mm posterior to the auricular flexure and extended towards the mastoid fascia
Superior the mastoid fascia the incision exposes the postero-superior circumference of the EAC. Blunt dissection here creates a plane which runs anteriorly to separate the pinna. EAC is then transected with a blade and retracted anteriorly.
Dissection is then carried through the superficial layer of the temporalis fascia to the root of the zygoma.
Once the Sx is completed the canal is reapproximated by closure of the skin flap ONLY.
Circum meatal approach
It is a modification of post auricular approach incorporating elements of preauricular and postauricular incisions. The preauricular incision commences at upper border of tragus and passed upwards in preauricular crease to reach most superior attachment of helix to scalp. From here, incision is carried backwards and downwards around the outer margin of funnel shaped bony audiotry meatus to terminate just above the commencement of mastoid process. The cosmetic results with this approach are excellent with transient weakness of upper branches of facial nerve in only 1.6% cases (Moore,).
Vestibular incision in the molar region
Mucoperiosteal flap is raised and dissection done in the subperiosteal plane to expose the condylar process
Cases with #dislocation of the condyle into the middle cranial fossa.
There are approx. 30 reported cases in the literature of this unusual event.
A combination of hemi/bicoronal incision with preauricular and/or endural inferior extension allows exposure for reduction and fixation.
Tasanen and Lamberg – t/t 27 cases via a submandibular approach with some form of transosseous wiring combined with IMF [average length 22.6 days]. Average follow-up 11.6 dys, max. post-op m.o 41.5mm. Noted slight deviation on opening in half cases, mandibular excursions were within N limits. 3 cases displayed slight weakness of MMN. Slight angulation of segments in half cases and some shortening and remodelling in most cases. N joint function in 24 out of 27 cases.
Stephenson and Graham, 1952 used K-wires through inferior border in the angle region through the medullary space to exit the #site then thru the condylar segment after reduction.
Lund and Takenoshita – describe similar technique with satisfactory results, disadv – posssibility of passing the tip of wire through articular surface.
Developed by Petzel and then advanced by Kernel – use of axial anchor screw based on the principles of Lag screws, a biconcave washer is also used which allowed increased tightening and compresssion according to the investigators. Submandibular approach
Stewart A (1991) describes a method of open reduction where controlled movement of proximal fragment is achieved by manipulation of a moule pin inserted into condylar neck. The moule pin technique enables accurate anatomical reduction of fracture and is simple and reliable even in difficult cases where the condylar head is dislocated from glenoid fossa.
Mikonnen et al and Ellis and Dean advocate a submandibular approach for access and use of a vertical ramus osteotomy with subsequent removal of the posterior ramus in cases with severe medial dislocation of the high condylar fractures that cannot be adquately reduced by other methods. The surgeon then grasps and removes the condylar fragment while keeping the capsule and disc intact. The posterior ramus and condyle are then taken to the back table where they are placed into proper anatomy and secured with single obliquely placed 2.0 mm lag screw. The ramus condyle is then treated as a free autologous bone graft returned to the field and secured with two small bone plates.
Disadvantage – extensive stripping of the vascular supply to the condyle and the possibility of avascular necrosis.
Both the authors later reported little dysfunction in the joints, no radiographic evidence of irreversible changes and minimal arthritic changes.
Another study in rhesus monkeys has demonstrated little histologic changes in patients operated with detachment and subcondylar osteotomy + repositioning and the condyles not operated on the same subjects.
Boyne PJ (1989)6 described a technique to gain access to the exarticulated
condyle by performing a subsigmoid vertical ramus osteotomy, detached the
condyle from the lateral pterygoid muscle and joint capsule. The fracture is
then repositioned extra corporally fixed and then repositioned in situ.
Sargent LA and Green JF (1992)41 reported that the subcondylar fractures
where approached by a retromandibular incision and were fixed with two
miniplates.
Lindahl and Hollender demonstrated in radiologic findings in IJOMS 1977
