[The clinical assessment of zygomatic complex fracture treated via infraorbital incision and rigid fixation].
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the clinical effect of zygomatic complex (ZC) fracture via infraorbital incision and rigid fixation.


METHODS
To clinically classify 65 cases with ZC fractures,which treated with open reduction and minor titanium-plate internal fixation.


RESULTS
(1) The operated area can be widely exposed via infraorbital incision. (2) ZC fractures can be reducted timely and correctly. (3) The fragments can be fixed rigidly with minor Ti-plaets. No injury to the facial nerve.The satisfactory rate of recovery was 95.4% (63/65).


CONCLUSIONS
Operation through infraorbital incision is suitable to ZC fractures.
