“…Pain with higher VAS readings was recorded immediately postoperatively as a normal finding due to surgical manipulation of the soft tissues, fixation of the fractured segments and postoperative edema. Different studies (16,18,19) reported noticeable reduction of pain by the end of the first month, which is matching with the results of this study. On the contrary, another study (20) mentioned that pain was reduced directly on the first week postoperatively in 50% of patients.…”

“…This explanation is coincident with what reported by Khiabani et al, (23) who also added that, the low observed values may be a result of protective neuro-vascular mechanism performed by the central nervous system. Generally, in both groups, values measured at 6 months postoperatively are significantly higher than values recorded at all follow-up periods which is also mentioned in another study (19) . Our results showed that, for all follow-up periods, fractured and non-fractured sides showed no significant difference between both groups, we can relate this again to the matching efficiency of both designs of custom made plates.…”
