Zygomatic Arch Fracture

Abstract: Determining the optimal method for zygoma fracture reduction is a common challenge. Numerous methods for treating zygomatic arch fractures have been suggested. However, a substantial gap exists between suggested treatment strategies and real-world practice. A general consensus of classification and treatment guidelines for zygomatic arch reduction has not yet been established. We reviewed our cases and propose a new classification of zygomatic arch fracture and a treatment algorithm for successful reduction ba… Show more

“…All were specific to one type of facial deformity. Twenty were for the classification of trauma: 12 for bony trauma, [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] 4 for both bony and soft tissue trauma, [25][26][27][28] one for soft tissue trauma only, 29 and 3 for ocular trauma. [30][31][32] Other classification systems identified included 8 for paralysis, [33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40] 4 for scarring, [41][42][43][44] 2 for facial reconstruction, 45,46 2 for lipodystrophy, 47,48 2 for microtia, 49,50 2 for other ear deformities, 51,52 1 for burns, 53 and one for adult cleft lip/palate.…”

“…The most frequent cause of admission of zygomatic arch fractures is obvious depression and/or limitation in mouth opening, that can be observed in approximately 45% of zygomatic arch fractures, 6 which is the result of the seizing up of the coronoid process to the displacing part of the zygomatic arch inward during opening of the mouth 6,7 . Furthermore, the mandible is deviated to the fractured side during the opening of the mouth.…”

“…Various intraoral and extraoral approaches have been used as closed reduction techniques in isolated zygomatic arch fractures. The Gillies methods, first described by Gillies et al 4 in 1927, have been used as a closed reduction technique for zygomatic arch fractures 6 . Keen technique (the buccal sulcus approach), 8 the lateral coronoid approach, 9 the eyebrow elevation approach, 10 and the percutaneous approach 11 have been used as closed reduction techniques in zygomatic arch fractures.…”

“…6 comminuted zygomatic bone and zygomatic arch fractures generally require open reduction and fixation to achieve good results. [7][8][9][10][11] For particularly experienced surgeons, some comminuted fractures can even be reduced intraorally using the Keen approach. For patients with high requirements for facial symmetry, open reduction and internal fixation may be an ideal solution.…”
