[Associated maxillofacial and cerebrocranial injuries].
By analyzing the experience with the treatment of 192 cases of jaw fractures the authors show that in 23.9% of cases these fractures are associated with a cerebrocranial trauma. In such cases the spinal puncture is of great diagnostic and therapeutic value. The treatment of such cases should be complex, depending on the severity of the patient's condition, spinal fluid analysis findings and intracranial pressure.
