Multidisciplinary and multistage treatment of complex facial trauma: case report.
The improved performance of modern automobiles often results in higher driving speeds, rendering traffic accidents much more devastating. Many of our facially injured patients require multidisciplinary and multistage treatment, which is often both sophisticated and radical. We present a patient with complex facial trauma, discuss his injury characteristics and the multistage treatment performed, and review the literature.
