AI Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of using a percutaneous minimally invasive approach for internal rigid fixation of zygomatic fractures.
- During the evaluation of 342 cases from 2003 to 2009, most patients achieved good results with symmetrical facial contours and minimal scarring, while only 19 experienced infections.
- The findings suggest that this method minimizes injury and complications, making it a favorable option for treating zygomatic fractures.
Article Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of internal rigid fixation of zygomatic fracture through percutaneous minimally invasive approach.
Methods: Three hundred and forty-two cases of zygomatic fractures were selected from June 2003 to 2009, using Zingg classification,all cases were divided into three groups and were treated by internal rigid fixation through percutaneous minimally invasive access.
Results: Nineteen patients had infection, the other patients had primary healing. All patients got symmetrical facial contour, the fractured bone segments integrated well on computed tomograph scan, the facial scars were minimal.
Conclusion: Percutaneous minimally invasive access for internal rigid fixation of zygomatic fracture produces minimal injury, inconspicuous facial scars, fewer complications, and is an ideal way for management of zygomatic fracture.

Pleomorphic adenoma of the trachea is a rare benign tumor, often challenging to diagnose due to nonspecific symptoms. We report a case of a 72-year-old female with a 10-year history of presumed bronchial asthma, presenting with persistent dyspnea. Preoperative assessment for breast cancer surgery revealed severe obstructive ventilatory impairment.

Chromophores incorporated into rigid polymer matrices may exhibit novel photophysical properties distinct from those in liquid solutions. In this work, we explored the decay path of the second ππ* state (2ππ*) of riboflavin in poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) solutions and films with various acidities. Highly efficient internal conversion from 2ππ* to the lowest ππ* state (1ππ*) induced by slight in-plane motion is demonstrated in all PVA solutions and films, irrespective of environmental acidity and rigidification.

Objectives: This study aims to analyze the biomechanics of three kinds of rigid internal fixation methods for condylar head fractures.
Methods: A three dimensional finite element model of the normal mandible was constructed. It was then used to prepare condylar head fracture finite element model and three kinds of rigid internal fixation finite element model (unilateral tension screw, bilateral tension screw, tension screw+titanium plate).
