[Multifocal fractures of the mandibular symphysis. Apropos of 3 cases].

Three patients presented with multiple site fractures of mandibular symphysis, associated in two cases with a bilateral subcondylar fracture. Treatment was by multiple solid osteosynthesis of mandibular body combining miniaturized screw plates and steel wire osteosynthesis. Emphasis is placed on the interest of a stable solid osteosynthesis of mandibular symphysis by screw plate, combined with osteosynthesis using a steel wire passing through the hole of a plate and into the small basilar bone fragment, allowing in this way the restitution of a perfect morphology of symphysis.
