  • Title: [Experience in treating maxillofacial wounds (based on army hospital data)].
    Author: Malakhov LI.
    Journal: Voen Med Zh; 1992 Mar; (3):16-8. PubMed ID: 1441235.
    Abstract:
    The article analyses the treatment of 494 patients with maxillofacial wounds. Local anesthesia was applied in 74% of cases, and general one--in 26%. Local anesthesia in 55% of cases was combined with intravenous or intramuscular injections of meperidine that made it possible to assure the treatment of the vast wounds. Simultaneously with the course of surgical treatment 36 patients underwent a primary plastic operation. Laminated stitches were used in 38 cases. The bent wire splints were used to immobilize the fractured fragments of jaw. "Protakril" self-solidified plastics were used in 31 cases to treat gunshot fractures of low jaw.
