Facial Trauma
• Who is involved in facial trauma?
– General Surgery/Trauma team
– Anesthesia
– Plastic Surgery
– ENT
– Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
– Neurosurgery
– Ophthalmology
ATLS
• initial evaluation and stabilization of the multiply
injured patient
• Primary Survey
– life-threatening conditions are identified and reversed
quickly
– based on ABCs
• Secondary Assessment
– does not begin until the primary assessment has been
completed and management of life-threatening conditions
has begun
– head to toe evaluation
Primary Survey – ABC’s
• A – airway with cervical spine control
– Establishment and maintenance of a patent
airway
– Airway obstruction may be due to:
•
•
•
•
tongue
severe maxillofacial fractures
bleeding from oral or facial structures
aspiration of foreign materials
Primary Survey – ABC’s
– assume cervical spine injury
with any injuries above the
clavicle
– avoid
hyperextension
or
hyperflexion of the neck during
attempts to establish an airway
– cervical spine is maintained in
the neutral position with the use
of backboards and collars
– Injury to C-spine is assessed by
clinical
and
radiographic
examination in the second
survey
Secondary Survey
• History
–
–
–
–
–
Illness
Allergies
Medications
Last meal
History of event
• Comprehensive Exam
– Detect all injuries
• Continued monitoring and reassesment of ABC’s of
primary survey
Definitive Care
•
•
•
•
•
•
After Primary and secondary survey
Resuscitation is complete
Patient is stabilized
Appropriate referral – (i.e. maxillofacial surgery)

Non operative management

Evaluation of Maxillofacial Injuries
• What are we looking
for?
• Damage to structures of
the head and neck
• Need to know Signs and
Symptoms

1- Scalp
2- Ears
3- Forehead
4- Orbits
5- Zygoma/Zygomatic arches
6- Nose
7- Maxilla
8- Mandible
Evaluation of Maxillofacial Injuries
• Scalp
– Lacerations
– Hematomas
– Important:
• Bleeding
• Underlying fractures
Evaluation of Maxillofacial Injuries
• Ears
– Lacerations
– External auditory meatus
(EAM) and membrane
– Battle’s Sign
– CSF otorrhea
– Hearing
Evaluation of Maxillofacial Injuries
• Forehead/Frontal Sinus
Evaluation
- Lacerations
- Hematomas
- Palpate for steps or
depressions
- Check for any sensory
deficit
Forehead/Frontal Sinus Evaluation
• CT scan for this area is to evaluate:
– Severity of anterior and posterior tables
– Injury to Nasal frontal outflow tract
Evaluation of Maxillofacial Injuries
• Frontal sinus injuries
• Usually severe injuries
• Due to severity, you
should suspect
intracranial and/or
spine injuries.
• Hence involvement of
Neurosurgery
Frontal sinus injuries
• Indications to operate:
– Trend now to be conservative due to
advancements in endoscopic sinus surgery
– Fracture of Anterior table  in case of severe
displacement
– Fracture of Posterior table  1- CSF leak, 2Mucosal entrapment in intracranial space.
– Obstruction of nasal frontal outflow
– Surgery versus follow up

Evaluation of Maxillofacial Injuries
Evaluation of Maxillofacial Injuries
• Retrobulbar hematoma (bleeding in the
potential space surrounding the globe)
– Symptoms: Severe eye pain, nausea, vomiting,
diplopia, and decreases in both visual acuity and
eye movement.
– Signs: proptosis, decreased ocular motility, visual
loss, elevated IOP (measured by tonometry).
– Management: Lateral canthotomy and cantholysis
Retrobulbar Hematoma

Orbital blow out fractures
Orbital blow out fractures
• Indications for treatment:
– Mechanical Diplopia (I.e.
entrapment of inferior rectus
muscle)
– Enophthalmus > 2mm
– Loss of more than 50% of
orbital floor
• Type of reconstruction
material:
–
–
–
–
Titanium mesh
Medpore
Prolene mesh
Autogenous bone
Orbital blow out fractures
• Orbital fractures can be isolated fractures or
they maybe associated with:
– ZygomaticoMaxillary Complex (ZMC) fractures
– Le Fort II and Le Fort II fractures
Evaluation of Maxillofacial Injuries
• Zygoma/Zygomatic Arch
Treatment of Orbital/ZMC fractures

• Nose
– Epistaxis/laceration
– Deviation of dorsum or septum
– Septal hematoma
– CSF Rhinorrhea
– CT cisternography
