Long-term evaluation of treatment protocols for isolated midfacial fractures in a German nation-wide craniomaxillofacial trauma center 2007–2017

Abstract An update on the trends in maxillofacial traumatology provides additional information on the actual and changing needs. This retrospective study aimed to review all patient records of patients treated for isolated midface fractures in the Department of Cranial- and Maxillofacial Surgery at...

This retrospective study aimed to review all patient records of patients treated for isolated midface fractures in the Department of Cranial- and Maxillofacial Surgery at the Dortmund General Hospital between 2007 and 2017. The patient radiographs and patient files were reviewed. The safety and efficacy of the applied methods were controlled by assessing complications based on the Clavien-Dindo classification system. The statistical analysis included descriptive methods including regression analysis and χ2-test. In eleven years, 3474 isolated midface fracture sites have been identified in 2868 patients. The yearly trend is slightly increasing, in elderly clearly worsening, in children and youth decreasing. The male-to-female ratio was 2.16:1 for the whole study population, in the age group 18–25 y.o. 6.95:1 while in elderly above 80 y.o. 1:2.51, the age group specific incidence reflects this result, too. The most common fractures were nasal bone fractures (1405), zygomatic fractures (832) and orbital floor fractures (700). The average hospital stay was 2.7 days, the most fractures were operated within 24 h. The complication rate was 2.02% (Clavien-Dindo class II–V). The incidence of midfacial fractures is increasing in the total population and especially in elderly, but decreasing in children. Development of injury prevention measures is needed in this population.
