[The surgical treatment of mandibular fractures].
In certain cases, open reduction of the fragments is absolutely necessary in mandibular fracture treatment. According to an evaluation of the relevant literautre and to the author's studies, plate osteosynthesis ensures functional stability. For the treatment of certain mandibular fractures the author composed a set for plate osteosynthesis. The use of this set in the management of mandibular fractures and in osteoplastic interventions is illustrated by two casuistic contributions.
