Article Synopsis
- The coronoid process of the mandible is rarely fractured in maxillofacial trauma, but complications can arise from these fractures, prompting a need for better classification and analysis of cases.
- A study at a level 1 trauma center analyzed patients with coronoid fractures, using a new 'tripartite' classification system to organize their findings based on age, causes, and types of fractures.
- Results indicated that most fractures occurred in individuals aged 21-40 years, primarily due to road traffic accidents, and the new classification helps streamline communication and treatment strategies for these injuries.
