  • Title: [One-stage reconstruction of intraorbital fractures by means of plate osteosynthesis (author's transl)].
    Author: Georgi W, Richter W, Brunner FX.
    Journal: Laryngol Rhinol Otol (Stuttg); 1982 Jul; 61(7):392-8. PubMed ID: 7109803.
    Abstract:
    Considering the multiplicity of sequelae of central midface fractures (rhinoliquorrhea, anosmia, impediment to the drainage of the superior sinuses and to the lacrimal fluid, traumatic telecanthus, dish-face etc.) the importance of rhinosurgical treatment as the foremost procedure is shown. The small-fragment sets according to Champy as stabilizing elements in operations of the interorbital space (Converse) and its osseous supports are mentioned. Both the technical and the functional advantage of establishing a stable osseous trajectory in the rhinobasis after fractures is emphasized. Stable osteosynthesis as a primary therapeutic procedure enables the rhinosurgeon to find a remarkable synthesis of both functional and aesthetic tasks in this problematic area. The stable fixation makes the rhinosurgical treatment a preliminary one for other surgical procedure to follow.
