title: [Is there any possibility to the technic of unilateral suspended fixation?].
abstract: The ever-increasing number of traffic accidents causing fractures of the facial bones and additional complications which resulted from the rigid intermaxillary fixation may induce the operator to have recourse to other, mainly monomandibular methods. Ten years of positive experience with the technique of suspended fixation prevail on the author to apply this procedure also to unilateral fractures of the mandible. In Brno as well as in Magdeburg, the technique of suspended fixation has been found to be very efficient. The indications of this method for unilateral fractures in the region of the submaxillary body or angle are pointed out.
