dc.description.abstractBackground Zygomatico-maxillary complex fractures are one of the most frequently occurring injuries of the facial skeleton due to its position and also the facial contour. The principal aetiologic factors that may result in zygomatic bone fracture include assaults, road traffic accidents and also falls. There are many methods of fixation that have been applied for treatment of zygomatic arch fractures. Aim To reduce and fix the zygomatic complex fracture using miniplates at the fronto-zygomatic suture and zygomatic buttress area. Material and method The present study includes five cases of zygomatic complex fractures who visited the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in Government Dental College and Hospital, Hyderabad. The operative procedure adopted was the lateral bow incision for exposure of fronto-zygomatic suture, the Gillie temporal approach for reducing the zygoma and intra-oral incision for exposure of zygomatic buttress fracture. Fixation was done with miniplates at the fronto-zygomatic suture and the zygomatic maxillary buttress suture. Result All the cases were successfully treated without any post-operative complications and with uneventful restoration of aesthetics and function.en_US
