CLINICAL STUDY OF PATIENTS WITH FACIAL TRAUWA AT FUJIYOSHIDA CITY HOSPITAL

Abstract

157 cases of facial trauma were studied with respect to the age and sex of the patients, causes, diagnosis, classification and treatment in our clinic from January 1987 to December 1988. Nasal bone fracture resulting from falls and traffic accidents were most common. We surmise that female and aged patients will increase in the near future, so treatment of facial trauma must be performed with functional and cosmetic consideration.
