title: Distribution of maxillofacial injuries in terrorist attacks.
abstract: Terrorist attacks have been occurring in Israel since the early 1970s. Israeli oral and maxillofacial surgeons are involved in the treatment of victims, because facial injuries are generally present after these attacks. Facial wounds are caused by blocks and stone throwing, stabbings, gunshots, and suicide bombings. The characteristics of each type of injury and their treatment are described.
