  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

Depressed fractures of the zygomatic arch are often overlooked due to local swelling associated with the in-jury. However, such fractures are easily detected using roentgenography in superioinferior projection and/or hone image CT examinations of the zygomatic arch.

Ten patients with depressed fracture of the zygoma-tic arch were treated surgically. Nine underwent an op-eration by the Gillies method within 15 clays after the injury and showed good results. In the remaining pa-tient, the operation performed on the 27th day after the injury failed to reconstruct the zygomatic arch perfect-ly, even when the open procedure was used.

The most important point in these cases is the detec-tion and surgical treatment of the fracture at an early stage. Patients with trismus and depressed fracture of the zygomatic arch should be operated on within two weeks after injury. During this period, the surgical method reported by Gillies can be performed easily and also produces successful results.
