Y transconjunctival approach

Details and patient eligibility

About

this study was made on fifteen patients who will undergo fracture repair of the zygomaticomaxillary complex.

Postoperative patient evaluation performed with specific attention paid towards, accessibility the exposure duration(time from incision till exposure of the field), esthetic appearance, post-operative pain, post-operative edema, orbital movement, wound healing, scarring infection, and the post-operative ocular complications such as ectropion, entropion, enophthalmos, scleral show and corneal abrasion.

Postoperative clinical examinations along with radiographic examination was done to evaluate the position of zygoma and determine the adequacy of fracture reduction.

Enrollment: 15 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 20 to 50 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers
