Article Synopsis
- Pediatric craniofacial fractures when compared to adults exhibit different injury patterns and can affect future growth, highlighting the need for tailored management strategies.* -
- This study analyzed over 3,000 patients under 18 at a pediatric trauma center from 2006 to 2021, revealing demographics, causes of injury, types of fractures, and treatment requirements based on age.* -
- Key findings included that older children primarily sustained fractures from sports while younger ones had more orbital and skull fractures, along with a notable prevalence of associated injuries like soft tissue and neurologic damage.*
Introduction: In children with PRS, MDO is routinely performed to alleviate airway obstruction; however, it involves risk of injury to the MMN. We hypothesize that MMN palsy incidence following MDO, reported at 1-15%, is underestimated. This study investigates the true incidence of MMN palsy after MDO to better guide follow-up care and improve treatment of this complication.

Although the positive impact of bariatric surgery on physical and emotional health is well-described, few studies have reported on the psychosocial well-being of patients undergoing body contouring procedures. Psychosocial well-being can impact patient satisfaction and maintenance of weight loss, and is an important area to study.

This study describes fracture cause, pattern, management, and treatment outcomes in pediatric mandibular fracture patients.

This study describes characteristics, management, and outcomes of NOE fractures in children seen at a single institution.
Methods: A retrospective review of patients under 18 years who presented to our institution from 2006 to 2021 with facial fractures was conducted; patients with NOE fractures were included.
