title: [Children's mandible fractures (author's transl)].
abstract: At Lyon's Maxillo-facial Surgery Center, children's mandible fractures represent 8% treated fractures at admited sick people (35 children for 56 fractures) for 1976-77-78. We insist on the treatment used in our center for articular region fractures: mandibular gymnastic in propulsion and laterality with a good result, orthopedic treatment only in case of gymnastic's failure. The other anatomic types are treated by orthopedic, surgical or mixed method, according to teething age, and fracture's diastasis.
