[Problems presented to the surgeon, anesthetist and resuscitation personnel by fractures of the malar bone (study of 100 cases)].
The authors emphasize the difficulties encountered with fractures of the zygomatic bone, both from the technical operative points of view and conditions of anaesthesia and intensive care. They distinguish in both fields, the so-called simple zygomatic fractures from fractures associated with multiple injuries of the face or skull. After recalling the surgical techniques, they consider routine management, from diagnosis to recovery from the anaesthetic, emphasizing the problem of the time of the operation, of the method ensuring freedom of the airways and anaesthetic indications used together with problems of intensive care.
