摘要:
To investigate clinical application of endoscopy-assisted internal fixation of ramus and subcondylar fractures.
In 11 patients with mandibular ramus and subcondylar fractures, endoscopy-assisted internal fixations with titanium plates were performed using micro-angular drill and screwdriver.
All of the patients showed no visible facial scars. Orthorpantography and three dimensional reconstructions of spiral CT scan demonstrated that all fractures were healed 1 to 15 months after operation. Slight malocclusion existed in 1 case and slight limited mouth openings were found in 2 cases.
Endoscopy-assisted internal fixation of mandibular ramus and subcondylar fracture avoided visible facial scars and the risk of facial nerve damage, it is, therefore, a minimally invasive and effective procedure.
