Abstract
Commentary on “surgical management of zygomatic complex fractures in a major trauma centre”
Highlights
Zygomatic complex (ZMC) fractures are one of the most common facial fractures seen in trauma centers
The authors described that sufficient stability was achieved with one-point fixation when there is no comminution of the Zygomatic complex (ZMC) fracture
Despite the efforts by the authors to assess the surgical management of ZMC fractures in their major trauma center and compare those findings with the literature, there are certain limitations that readers should consider when interpreting the results of this study
Summary
Zygomatic complex (ZMC) fractures are one of the most common facial fractures seen in trauma centers. Surgical intervention of ZMC fractures require open reduction and internal fixation of the points of the tetrapod. A gingivobuccal sulcus incision effectively exposes the maxilla for reduction and stabilization of the ZM buttress with aesthetically pleasing postoperative results[4].
