    Author: Matsumura H, Yakumaru H, Watanabe K.
    Journal: Scand J Plast Reconstr Surg Hand Surg; 1994 Mar; 28(1):49-53. PubMed ID: 8029653.
    Abstract:
    We have used closed reduction based on Gillies' method using an original Y-shaped zygomatic elevator in 50 cases after radiographic evaluation of the displacement by three directional radiography. No patients had residual restriction of mandibular motion, double vision or facial asymmetry. Radiography showed poor reduction in two cases, and displacement of the initial reduction in three. In all other cases, satisfactory results were achieved.
