ABSTRACT
A comparison between submentovertex view radiograph and real time ultrasonography in the diagnosis of zygomatic arch fractures. The materials are 6 patients with zygomatic arch fracture alone and 6 patients with combination of zygomatico-maxillary complex with arch fracture. In 34% of patients with zygomatico-maxillary complex with arch fracture. In 34% of patients with zygomatico-maxillary complex fractures, zygomatic arch fractures were confirmed by radiographs, in 66% of the cases the isolated arch fractures were confirmed by radiographs. In 100% of the cases ultrasonography confirmed arch fractures in both the sets of cases.
