  • Title: Maxillofacial trauma.
    Author: Crockett DM, Mungo RP, Thompson RE.
    Journal: Pediatr Clin North Am; 1989 Dec; 36(6):1471-94. PubMed ID: 2685725.
    Abstract:
    Although the general principles for evaluation and management of facial fractures in children are the same as for adults, some modification in assessment, timing, and technique must be considered. This article has a double purpose: to re-emphasize acute assessment and medical management so that the pediatrician can function as the coordinator of the maxillofacial trauma team, and to present both established and new techniques for the reduction of simple and complex fractures in children.
