Treatment Modalities for Mandibular Angle Fractures

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2005
Management of mandibular angle fractures is often challenging and results in the highest complication rate among fractures of the mandible. Optimal treatment for angle fractures remains controversial. Historically, treatment of mandible fractures included intraoperative maxillomandibular fixation (MMF) along with rigid internal fixation. More recently,

Mandibular third molars and angle fractures

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2004
The study purpose was to measure associations between mandibular third molar (M3) status/position and risk for angle fracture.We designed a multicenter retrospective cohort study composed of patients who presented for operative management of mandible fractures. The primary predictor variable was M3 (present/absent). The secondary predictor variable was

Biomechanical Analysis of Mandibular Angle Fractures

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2011
Clinical evidence has suggested that minimal fixation can reduce complications of mandibular angle fractures, though no detailed biomechanical model has yet explored this unique and somewhat unexpected finding.The current study uses finite element analysis to biomechanically evaluate different fixation schemes used to fixate mandibular angle fractures.

Surgical Management of Mandibular Angle Fractures

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2018
Purpose:The study proposed to determine the superiority between different fixation methods in the mandibular angle fractures (MAFs) and to evaluate best option for surgeon and patient.Methods:A systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines, examining Medline-Ovid, Embase, and Pubmed databases.

Update on ladder plates for mandibular angle fractures

Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head & Neck Surgery, 2023
Purpose of review Fractures of the mandibular angle are surgically challenging with high rates of postoperative complications. Among established fixation techniques for these injuries, Champy's tension band approach with miniplate fixation has held prominence. Rigid fixation, using two plates, also remains commonly used.

Osteosynthesis of Mandibular Fractures in the Angle Region

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1983
The region of the angle of the mandible is one of the most frequent sites of fracture in external mandibular trauma. In 14 cases of fracture through the angle region, angled dynamic compression plates inserted through an extraoral route were used to provide rigid internal fixation.

The 7-Hole Angle Plate for Mandibular Angle Fractures

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2013
To evaluate the 7-hole angle plate for open reduction, internal fixation of mandibular angle fractures when the Champy technique is inadequate and more rigid or semirigid fixation is beneficial and to provide rational indications for the choice of the 7-hole angle plate.Retrospective evaluation of 10 patients selected at Parkland Memorial Hospital over

The Influence of the Mandibular Gonial Angle on the Incidence of Mandibular Angle Fracture—A Radiomorphometric Study

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2017
The aim of this radiomorphometric study was to analyze the association between the mandibular gonial angle and the risk of mandibular angle fracture.A retrospective analysis of medical records and radiographs of patients treated for mandibular fractures was performed.

Treatment methods for fractures of the mandibular angle

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1999
Fractures of the mandibular angle are plagued with the highest rate of complication of all mandibular fractures. Over the past 10 years, various forms of treatment for these fractures were performed on an indigent inner city population. Treatment included: 1) closed reduction or intraoral open reduction and non-rigid fixation; 2) extraoral open ...

Monocortical Miniplate Fixation of Mandibular Angle Fractures

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1991
Noncompression monocortical miniplate fixation of mandibular fractures has become a reliable method of providing rigid fixation and eliminating the need for intermaxillary fixation. Recent studies, using a variety of internal fixation techniques, have described high complication rates at the mandibular angle.
