Abstract
Summary. The paper presents a comparative analysis of the results of ultrasound examination of the masticatory muscles proper in patients with fractures of the branch and articular process of the lower jaw at various stages of treatment using the endoscopic method and traditional osteosynthesis.Research objective. To assess the morphological state of the masticatory muscles in patients with a fracture of the branch and articular process of the lower jaw using the endoscopic method and traditional osteosynthesis using ultrasound technologies.Resources and Methods. The results of ultrasound examination of the masticatory muscles in 82 patients with a fracture of the branch and articular process of the lower jaw, hospitalized in N.I. Pirogov State Clinical Hospital No. 1 for 2021, were analyzed.Research results. Based on the results of an ultrasound examination of patients aged 19 to 40 years with a mandibular fracture, it was found that the use of intraoral access using endoscopic technologies contributes to an earlier normalization of the morphological state of the masticatory muscles proper compared to traditional osteosynthesis.
