Electromyography assessment in zygomaticomaxillary complex fractures

Abstract: ZMC fractures significantly diminish muscular activity of the masseter and temporalis and even though significant recovery of muscle activity was revealed after 6 weeks, it is still less than normal activity, highlighting the importance of postoperative rehabilitation.

“…sEMG has also been used for monitoring the activity of the masseter muscles in patients with facial bone fractures. 113 There are many related works reported in previous literature concerning biosensors that have been embedded into smart watches, clothes, and accessories to collect various bioelectric signals in real time for sports and fitness exercise (wearable sensors). 114,115 Hand-sewn electrodes for surface electromyography are widely deployed in hospitals especially across countries with low income like Ethiopia.…”

“…More than 70% of ZMC fractures are managed surgically using open reduction and internal fixation, where access to the inferior orbital rim is obtained through either transcutaneous or transconjunctival approach. Transcutaneous approaches include the infraorbital, subtarsal and subciliary incisions which provide good accessibility to the fracture site but on the expense of the associated scar formation [ 5 , 6 ]. The subciliary approach is done about 2 mm, while the subtarsal approach is done in a natural crease usually 5 to 7 mm below the ciliary margin, respectively [ 7 ].…”
