“…These types of incision allow an accurate closure 34 . According to Rajmohan et al 35 , this incision (with its various modifications) provides a multifaceted approach with excellent exposure to various areas in the craniomaxillofacial region. The hidden scar in the hairline provides an esthetic advantage, and has thus gained popularity.…”

Zygomatic fractures are the second most common fractures of the facial skeleton, after nasal bone fractures. Due to its uniqueness, the malar bone plays a very important role in maintaining appropriate facial contours. Zygomatic fractures can cause ocular and mandibular functional impairment, along with cosmetic defects. With the help of advanced imaging techniques and various treatment options, the management of zygomatic fractures has become more sophisticated and less invasive. This article discusses zygomatic fractures in detail: their clinical and radiographic features, and the various treatment options available.

“…Since the coronal flap provides access to the frontal, temporal and zygomatic regions, the reconstruction of orbit, zygoma, frontal and nasoorbitoethmoid (NOE) regions is accomplished without the need for any facial incisions. [1] Although condylar fractures of the mandible may be treated by closed reduction and appropriate physiotherapy, open reduction and internal fixation is indicated in specific circumstances. In a study 25 cases of a previously unreported method of exposure of condylar fractures using an extended bicoronal approach combined with myotomy of the masseter muscle.…”

“…In maxillofacial it can be used for fractures in the frontal bone, nasal bone and extensive fractures involving zygomatic arch and complex. [1] Severe cranio-maxillofacial injuries especially those involving the mid-face, are difficult to approach, this technique provides optimum exposure of the fracture sites, allowing for accurate anatomic reduction and fixation of the fractured segments and good cosmetic results in the incision site. [2] This procedure has been used extensively by neurosurgery to gain access to the region of interest.…”

Background: The coronal incision with its various modifications provides the most versatile approach to various areas in the craniomaxillofacial region coupled with excellent exposure. The aesthetic advantage of a hidden scar in the hairline, accounts for its continued popularity. In maxillofacial it can be used for fractures in the frontal bone, nasal bone and extensive fractures involving zygomatic arch and complex Methods:In this clinical and observational study, we operated 5 patients with complex cranio-maxillofacial injuries involving frontal bone, zygomatic arch and zygomatic complex, nasal bone and supra-orbital region. All the five cases were trauma cases between ages of 20 to 60 years with no facial nerve injury per-operatively. These cases for followed for post-operative complications namely sensory and motor nerve deficits, haematoma, wound dehiscence and ptosis Result: Two patients each had sensory and motor nerve deficits and one patient had minimal wound dehiscence, all settled conservatively Conclusion:The incision provides excellent access, has reduced complications and produces an acceptable scar. This incision is advised in treating complex cranio-facial trauma, tumors and le-fort esthetic surgeries.

“…The posterior approach (using a coronal incision) would either be curvilinear or a stealth-type incision. 15 The advantages of the stealth incision would be that it would blend within the hairline and stagger the layered hair. It also facilitates closure, as the interstices of the incision are easy to close.…”

Traumatic panfacial fracture repair is one of the most complex and challenging reconstructive procedures to perform. Several principles permeate throughout literature regarding the repair of panfacial injuries in a stepwise fashion. The primary goal of management in most of these approaches is to restore the occlusal relationship at the beginning of sequential repair so that other structures can fall into alignment. Through proper positioning of the occlusion and the mandibular-maxillary unit with the skull base, the spatial relationships and stability of midface buttresses and pillars can then be re-established. Here, the authors outline the sequencing of panfacial fracture repair for the restoration of anatomical relationships and the optimization of functional and structural outcomes.
