Clinical Experience With a Less Invasive Surgical Transparotid Approach and Trapezoidal Plate for Neck and Base Condylar Fractures: A Retrospective Study.

Study Design: This is a retrospective observational study.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical outcomes after an open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of condylar neck and base fractures (CNBFs) with a trapezoidal shape plate in patients using a less invasive transparotid approach.

Methods: Fifteen patients with condylar fractures were classified according to the Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen Craniomaxillofacial (AOCMF) classification system, treated by ORIF with a trapezoidal plate.

Transconjunctival Approach Using Lateral Skin Extension for Reconstruction of Orbit Zygomatic Complex Fractures: Technique Description and a Case Series Analysis.

Study Design: A descriptive-observational study of a series case report of patients diagnosed with orbito-zygomatic complex (OZMC) fracture with lateral wall involvement, was conducted. All patients were assessed in the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Service at Hospital El Carmen, Maipu, Santiago, Chile.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate a single-institution experience with the transconjunctival approach to the orbit, utilizing a lateral skin extension as unique approach to access to fronto-zygomatic suture, infraorbital rim and/or orbital floor.
