Abstract

After being hit by a motorcycle a seven-year old boy presented with a displaced fracture of the body of the right mandible [type III]. In the absence of orthodontic internal fixation or ligature wire equipment suture material was used to provide approximation and stabilisation of the fracture. The non-absorbable suture was fed through a cannula which was pierced through the bone on either side of the fracture. We present this simplified technique as a suitable alternative for the fixation of mandible fractures in settings with very limited resources.

儿童下颌骨骨折的治疗:一种简化技术
一名七岁男孩被摩托车撞后,右侧下颌骨出现移位性骨折[III型]。在没有正畸内固定或结扎丝设备的情况下,使用缝合材料来提供骨折的近似和稳定。不可吸收缝合线通过一根穿过骨折两侧骨的套管置入。 我们提出这种简化的技术是在资源有限的情况下固定下颌骨骨折的一种合适的选择。
