ABSTRACT
RESUMEN: Las fracturas panfaciales son aquellas que afectan de forma simultánea al tejido óseo de dos o más tercios del rostro. El manejo inicial de estos pacientes es resolver o estabilizar las urgencias médico - quirúrgicas que puedan presentar, debido a que la gran mayoría de estas fracturas están asociadas a traumatismos de alta energía cinética, las que determinan la presencia de lesiones concomitantes que pueden comprometer la vida del paciente. El tratamiento quirúrgico de las fracturas panfaciales puede abarcar desde la intervención quirúrgica inicial de control de daños, estabilización, reducción y fijación quirúrgica de los segmentos fracturados mediante osteosíntesis hasta intervenciones mediatas para la reconstrucción de los tejidos afectados por el traumatismo. Para el tratamiento de las fracturas panfaciales existe una sistemática quirúrgica que tiene por objeto contener y/o minimizar daños agudos y permitir una reducción morfológica y funcional. Reportamos un caso clínico de fractura panfacial cuyo tratamiento siguió esta sistemática terapeútica.
ABSTRACT: Panfacial fractures affect bone tissue in two or more thirds of the face simultaneously. The initial management of these patients is to resolve or stabilize the medical-surgical emergencies that they may present. Most of these fractures are associated to trauma of high kinetic energy, which determine the presence of concomitant inju- ries that can compromise the life of the patient. The surgical treatment of panfacial fractures may include from the initial surgical intervention of damage control, stabilization, reduction and surgical fixation of fractured segments through osteosynthesis, to mediate the reconstruction of tissues affected by the trauma. For the treatment of panfacial fractures there is a surgical approach that aims to contain and/or minimize acute damage and allow for morphological and functional reduction. We report a clinical case of panfacial fracture whose treatment followed this therapeutic approach.

As fraturas panfaciais acometem concomitantemente os terços superior, médio e inferior da face, decorrentes de acidentes automobilísticos, arma de fogo, atropelamento, agressão física, entre outros. Essas fraturas geralmente envolvem osso frontal, zigomático, maxila, mandíbula e ossos nasais, necessitando assim, fixação interna rígida através do uso de miniplacas e parafusos com o propósito de estabilizar as estruturas fraturadas, dar suporte aos tecidos moles e evitar deformidades estéticas da face. O objetivo deste trabalho é relatar o manejo cirúrgico de um caso clinico atendido em um hospital público de Salvador/BA, no qual a vítima apresenta ampla laceração na face e fratura exposta do terço médio da face. O tratamento executado sob anestesia geral foi redução dos cotos ósseos fraturados, fixação com miniplacas e parafusos, reconstrução imediata dos tecidos moles acometidos(AU)
Panfacial fractures affect concomitantly the upper, middle, lower third of the face, resulting from automobile accidents, firearms, hit-and-run, physical aggression, among others. These fractures usually involve frontal bone, zygomatic, maxilla, jaw and nasal bones, thus requiring rigid internal fixation through the use of miniplates and screws in order to stabilize fractured structures, support soft tissues avoiding aesthetic face deformities. The objective of this work is to report the surgical management of a clinical case attended in a public hospital in Salvador/BA, in which the victim has wide laceration of the face and exposed fracture of the middle third of the face. Treatment performed under general anesthesia was reduction of fractured bone stumps, fixation with miniplates and screws, immediate reconstruction of the affected soft tissues(AU)

El manejo de las secuelas faciales por fracturas no tratadas ha tenido un crecimiento importante debido al uso de los biomodelos. Estos permiten optimizar la cirugía, disminuir los tiempos quirúrgicos y mejorar los resultados. El presente articulo muestra un caso de secuela de fractura facial tratada con osteotomías con ayuda de guías quirúrgicos fabricados en base a un biomodelo operado; se presenta el resultado postoperatorio de 6 meses con una resolución adecuada.
The management of facial sequel by facial fractures non-treated nowadays presents an important expansion by the use of biomodels. This system can be used for reduce surgical time, optimize surgical protocol and improve outcomes. This paper presents a sequel case for facial fracture treated with bone osteotomy using surgical guide manufactured base on biomodels operated; is showing the postoperative 6 month follow-up with good results.

Panfacial fracture defines that fractures include all upper face, midface, and lower face. But clinically it means fracture more than two areas including midface. Many panfacial fracture patients have injury of cranium and face. Serious soft tissue damage and bony defect are frequent, normal anatomical reconstruction is difficult. After primary treatment many patients have sequelae of functional and aesthetic deformities, which are difficult to restore by secondary reconstruction. Patients with panfacial fracture are 75 cases among 1138 facial bone fractures who received treatment in department of plastic and reconstructive surgery of our university. We followed up survey from January, 1997 to December, 2001 by retrospective study and came to a conclusion. First, interconnection between skull base and nasal cavity must be seperated perfectly. Second, telecanthus can be prevented by anatomical bone fixation. Third, surgeon reconstruct zygomatic area exactly for facial width and projection. Forth, surgeon restore normal occlusion by anatomic reduction of maxilla and mandible. Fifth, soft tissue must be repaired layer by layer for prevention of secondary contour deformity. In conclusion, surgeon decides operation methods and time after discuss with related departments for with patient's condition. And treatment plans are based on patients mental and physical state. Proper primary treatment can reduce complications and necessity of secondary operation.
