Objective: To evaluate the frequency, pattern, and etiology of mandibular fractures at a tertiary care hospital, in Karachi Study Design: Retrospective, cross-sectional study. Setting: Abbasi Shaheed Hospital, Karachi, Pakistan Methodology: The study was initiated in Outpatient Maxillofacial Surgery Department of Abbasi Shaheed Hospital Karachi. The duration of the study was 5 years and six months. Data of mandibular trauma was evaluated. In this retrospective, cross-sectional study the patients were recruited through convenience sampling and the inclusion criteria was patients from both genders suffered from mandibular trauma of mandibular region. Patients who suffered from the trauma of face other than mandible were excluded. The sample size of the study was 464. A questionnaire was designed to enquire into the demographic details like age, sex, etiology, and site of fracture. The data was analyzed on SPSS version 17.0. Results: The majority of patients were males i.e. 384 (82.8%) while 80 (17.2%) were females. The most common type of fracture was combination fractures followed by parasymphysis i.e. 142 (30.6%) and 79 (17%) respectively. Road traffic accident was the major cause of trauma i.e. 332 (71.6%) followed by fall 96 (20.7%). Cross tabulation was done between different variables. Association of gender with etiology and type of fracture revealed non-significant p-value while the association of age with etiology revealed significant p-value. The highest number of mandibular fracture cases due to RTA were reported in the year 2019. Conclusion: It has been concluded that the frequency of mandibular trauma is quite high with male dominance. The most susceptible site of trauma is the combination and parasymphseal region and the most common etiology were road traffic accidents.

“…The arch bar's length is also adjustable to the work area, and its installation is relatively simple. 20 Placing eyelets is a wire splinting technique that requires 0.4 mm-diameter wire placed on the left and right maxillary posterior teeth. The placement of eyelets on the maxilla serves as an instrument for MMF.…”

Background: Jaw fracture is the most common facial fracture in oral and maxillofacial bone and is usually caused by trauma. The fracture itself could lead to infection due to bone and tissue damage, which is the port of entry for microorganisms. Fracture-related infection (FRI) in the patient discussed in this study manifested as a submandibular abscess. The goals of fracture treatment were achieving the anatomic reduction of the fracture line and regaining acceptable occlusion. There are two methods for treating mandibular fractures: the closed method, also called conservative treatment, and the open method, which requires advanced surgery. Closed method treatment uses a maxillomandibular fixation (MMF) device in order to reduce and immobilize fracture fragments. Treatment of FRI should use a multidisciplinary approach to achieve an outstanding result, such as wound debridement, antimicrobial therapy, and implant retention. Purpose: The purpose of this article is to report a case of neglected mandibular fracture with a submandibular abscess, which was treated with a combination of the closed reduction method and incision drainage. Case: A 25-year-old female visited Nala Husada Hospital because of a submandibular abscess on the neglected mandibular fracture of the right parasymphysis and left corpus. Case management: The case was managed using an arch bar in the mandible and an eyelet in the maxilla while continuing with MMF and an extra oral drainage incision. Conclusion: Combination therapy (MMF and incision drainage) was needed to treat this case because of the occurrence of a submandibular abscess due to a neglected mandibular fracture.
