A novel fixation method for panfacial fracture using an Ilizarov-type external fixator
Trauma Case Reports, 2019 In general, internal plate fixation is mainly performed in order to reduce multiple facial bone fractures and rarely uses an external fixator. Although it would be ideal to successfully achieve or preserve the occlusal relationship of the upper and lower
