Abstract

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the clinical and CT-Scanner features of patients with panfacial fractures for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning.

Participants and research methods: A total of 46 patients were en­rolled in this study, all of whom were diagnosed with and treated for panfacial fractures at the Maxillofacial Department –Military Hospital 175 from January 2022 to March 2023.

Results: Our findings showed that the majority of patients (67.3%) were between the ages of 19 and 39, with the youngest patient being 15 years old and the oldest be­ing 61 years old, and a mean age of 30.54±11.18. The male proportion is 91.2%, and the female proportion is 8.8%. Traffic accidents account for the majority at 95.6%. The most common combined injury is a traumatic brain injury, accounting for 41.4%. The clinical symptoms of panfacial fractures are very diverse, with which 100% of patients having malocclusion, bone deformities, and limited mouth opening. On CT-Scanner, all patients showed evidence of lower and midfacial fractures, while 19 cases (41.3%) also had upper facial bone fractures.

Conclusion: panfacial fractures are severe injuries with varied clinical symptoms and X-ray findings. Patients require timely emergency care and careful examination to plan the best treatment.
