Fracture characteristics and postoperative outcomes of patients presenting with orbital fractures in Baltimore remain poorly investigated. The purpose of our study was to determine the fracture patterns, etiologies, and postoperative outcomes of patients treated for orbital fractures at 2 level I trauma centers in Baltimore. A retrospective cohort study was conducted on patients who underwent orbital fracture repair at the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center and the Johns Hopkins Hospital from January 2015 to December 2019...

Traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) is a rare but potentially devastating complication of craniofacial trauma. Approximately half of patients with TON sustain permanent vision loss. In this study, we sought to identify the most common fracture patterns associated with TON. We performed a retrospective review of craniomaxillofacial CT scans of trauma patients who presented to the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center from 2015 to 2017. Included were adult patients who had orbital fractures with or without other facial fractures...

Background: Patients may be educated about facial fractures using two-dimensional computed tomography (2DCT); however, three-dimensional mixed reality (3DMR) goggles may improve patient education by delivering content in an immersive environment. Objective: To compare the effectiveness of 2DCT and 3DMR formats used for patient education on facial fractures, as measured by surveys. Methods: In this prospective, randomized, crossover study, video tutorials intended for facial fracture informed consent were created in 2DCT and 3DMR formats from a single CT data set of a zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fracture...

OBJECTIVE: To describe the epidemiology and patterns of gymnastics-related Head & Neck trauma injuries using the NEISS database from 2001 to 2020. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional analysis of a national database. METHODS: Gymnastics-related ED visits between 2001 and 2020 were queried from the NEISS database. Bivariate chi-squared analyses were used to compare injury demographics, location, type, and disposition. Fracture location was identified using the narrative description of each case and were divided into subtypes for further analysis...

The diagnosis and management of intracapsular condylar fractures (ICFs) are crucial, and if left untreated, they can cause facial asymmetry, limited mouth opening, and even temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis, which may affect the physical function and mental health of patients. Various procedures have been described for the ICFs, but there is no consensus on the therapeutic methods. This study aimed to compare the clinical efficacy of conservative and surgical management of ICFs.

BACKGROUND: Open reduction with internal fixation is the preferred treatment option for displaced facial bone fractures. The superior mechanical properties of metallic plates have made them the most widely used material in existing bone fixation systems. However, after the healing period, these permanent plates can cause various problems. Alternative bioresorbable materials are being investigated to reduce these potential problems. This study compares bone stability and viability by using graphene oxide (GO)-doped poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) nanofiber plates and titanium plates for rats with fractured mandibles...

PURPOSE: Comminuted fractures of the anterior skull base can easily cause dural damage, leading to cerebrospinal fluid leakage and retrograde infection. Skull base reconstruction is essential. This study aimed to present a novel and simple technique for repairing skull base defects using a self-made fascia-bone fragments-fascia "sandwich" structure made by fascia, fracture fragments, and sutures. METHOD: From 2018 to 2023, we performed self-made sandwich structures for skull reconstruction in 10 patients with anterior skull base comminuted fractures...

Injuries to humans caused by wild animals, particularly bears, are rarely mentioned in the literature. Such injuries are frequent in Siberia, which is a territory surrounded by dense forests inhabited by brown bears. In the last 4 months alone (September-December 2023), four bear attacks on humans were registered in Khakassia, Russia. This article presents a clinical case of rehabilitating a patient after a bear attack, who suffered multiple fragmentary fractures of the facial skeleton with displaced bone fragments, subcutaneous emphysema of the soft tissues of the face, damage to the parietal and right occipital regions and paranasal sinus hemorrhage on the left side...

This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of a combined virtual surgical planning (VPS) and short-segment drilling guides (SSDGs) workflow for the treatment of complex mandibular fractures. Consecutive patients with complex mandibular fractures underwent treatment using the VPS and SSDGs workflow from August 2020 to April 2022. Various mandibular landmarks were compared between the preoperative virtual surgical plan and postoperative data, including condylar distance (CoD), mandibular angle width (GoL-GoR), GoMeGo angle (∠GoL-Me-GoR), the difference in mandibular angles between the left and right sides (Δ∠Co-Go-Me), and the difference in length between the left and right mandibular body (ΔGo-Me)...

Background Falls from roofs (FFRs), while constituting just a segment of all falls, pose a significant public health issue. They not only impact individuals in their daily lives but also pose an increased risk in the construction field. The consequences of these falls range broadly, from minor bruises to serious harm, potentially leading to chronic disability or fatality. For the general populace, such falls might happen during simple activities like maintenance, with outcomes varying from fractures to critical head or spinal injuries...

Emergency situations involving the ears, nose, and throat (ENT) area can pose considerable challenges for clinicians and often require an interdisciplinary approach due to the involvement of different organ systems. To avoid damage to highly relevant sensory and perception organs and life-threatening bleeding or respiratory complications, strategies that are as quick and targeted as possible are necessary. This article aims to provide an overview of ENT emergency management strategies. The entire spectrum from simple conservative to highly complex surgical measures plays a role here, both diagnostically and therapeutically...
