Maxillofacial fractures in children attending the Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital

Aniruth, Sunildutt January 2005 (has links)
Magister Chirurgiae Dentium (MChD) / The literature shows that maxillofacial fractures in children are uncommon. Although the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of the Faculty of Dentistry, of the University of the Western Cape, has been providing a service to the Red Cross Children’s Hospital (RXH) for the past twenty years, no study had been undertaken to determine the age, gender, number of patients per year, aetiology, patterns, and management of maxillofacial fractures at this institution. A retrospective records based study was undertaken to determine these features. This study accessed the records of patients seen at the trauma unit at RXH, from 1994 to 2003 inclusive, and referred for maxillofacial attention. One-hundred-and-five patient records were obtained and analyzed using the SPSS statistic package. One-hundred-and-twenty-seven fractures were recorded in one hundred and five patients. The age of the patients ranged from one to thirteen. Sixty-five male and forty female patients were seen. Dentoalveolar fractures were the most common fracture seen in both the midface and mandible. Midface fractures were more common than mandibular fractures. Falls, followed by motor vehicle accidents, were the most common cause of facial fractures. Most fractures were successfully managed by closed procedures. At this institution, nasal and frontal fractures have surprisingly little or no input from the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. / South Africa

Foram analisados os prontuários de 2986 pacientes, dos quais 757 foram menores que 18 anos. Os seguintes parâmetros foram avaliados: idade, sexo, etiologia, localização e tipo de fratura, lesões associadas, tratamento e complicações. Resultados: Foram atendidos 530 crianças e adolescentes de gênero masculino (70,01%) e 227 do gênero feminino (29,99%), sendo os adolescentes o grupo etário mais afetado. As causas mais comuns das lesões foram os acidentes de bicicleta (220, 29,06%) e as quedas (215, 28,40%). O osso facial mais afetado por fraturas foi a mandíbula (112, 44,8%) e as lesões associadas mais freqüentes foram as lacerações e o trauma dentoalveolar. O tratamento foi cirúrgico em 75 casos (30%) e as principais complicações foram deiscência, hemorragia pósoperatória e infecção de material de fixação interna. Conclusões: Os acidentes de bicicleta e as quedas foram consideradas as principais causas de injurias maxilo-faciais. A mandíbula foi a mais afetada por fraturas. Estudos epidemiológicos de lesões faciais permitem o desenho das circunstâncias de risco e a identificação dos indivíduos mais sucetiveis. A avaliação da eficácia do tratamento instituído e a compreensão de suas complicações permite uma interpretação realista e coerente da melhor forma como estes doentes devem ser conduzidos. / Abstract: We performed a retrospective study to analyse the different characteristics of such fractures in the pediatric population of Piracicaba Region, Sao Paulo, Brazil. We reviewed the clinical records of 2986 patients. A total of 757 patients under 18 years were treated by the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Division of Piracicaba Dental School between 1999 and 2008.The following parameters were evaluated: age, sex, etiology, location and type of fracture, associated injury, treatment and complications. Results: There were 530 boys (70.01%) and 227 girls (29.99%), treated for injuries, with the main prevalence in teenage. The most common injury causes were bicycle accidents (220, 29.06%) followed by falls (215, 28.40%).The facial bone most affected by fractures was the mandible (112, 44.8%) and the associated injuries were lacerations, dentoalveolar trauma and craniofacial trauma. The treatment was surgical in 75 cases (30%) of cases and the main complications were dehiscence, post-operative infection and loosed of internal fixation material and facial paraesthesia. Conclusions: Bicycle accidents and falls were found to be the principal causes of maxillofacial injuries. The facial bone most affected by fractures was the mandible. Epidemiological studies of facial injuries enable the design of the risk circumstances and the identification of the most vulnerable individuals. The evaluation of the effectiveness of treatment instituted and understanding its complications allow a realistic and consistent interpretation about which is the best way for treating these patients. / Mestrado / Cirurgia e Traumatologia Buco-Maxilo-Faciais / Mestre em Clínica Odontológica
