2024年2月7日 · The treatment of facial injuries must first focus on threats to life, but important secondary considerations are function and long-term cosmesis. The basic anatomy, clinical manifestations, and acute management of facial trauma in adults will be reviewed here.

2016年6月20日 · Imaging in most emergency departments for significant facial trauma begins with computed tomography (CT) scanning. Helical CT and, more recently, multidetector CT (MDCT) have supplanted plain radiography and have revolutionized the imaging of …

Once life-threatening injuries have been managed successfully, a secondary survey of the face includes palpation, visual inspection, full visual acuity interrogation, cranial nerve evaluation, detection of a cerebrospinal leak, and dental occlusion assessment.

2013年1月1日 · Multidetector computed tomography (CT) is the modality of choice for the evaluation of facial trauma because it helps accurately identify and characterize fractures and associated complications, thereby aiding timely clinical management and surgical planning.

2020年3月19日 · In patients with facial trauma, multidetector computed tomography is the first-choice imaging test because it can detect and characterize even small fractures and their associated complications quickly and accurately.

Initially, every exam of a trauma patient should follow a systematic approach, typically utilizing the ATLS (Advanced Trauma Life Support) protocol. Facial injuries in particular should have the examiner on the lookout for airway compromise, uncontrolled hemorrhage and aspiration, as well as concomitant neurologic injury.

Facial trauma can involve facial bleeding, swelling, bruising, lacerations, cuts, burns and deformity. Computed tomography (CT) is the main imaging method used to assess a person with facial trauma, since it allows doctors to visualize bone and soft tissues.

Injury to the facial skeleton and the adjoining soft tissues is a frequently occurring condition. The main aim of this work was to assess the value of multiplanar and three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction computed tomography (CT) images obtained by ...

2018年6月8日 · Imaging in most emergency departments for significant facial trauma begins with CT scanning. Multidetector CT (MDCT) has supplanted plain radiography and has revolutionized the imaging of the maxillofacial trauma.

Facial trauma is a commonly encountered injury in the emergency department. Facial fractures can be categorized into limited, transfacial, and smash fractures. Limited fractures may involve one or two adjacent facial supporting struts. Transfacial fractures are …
