[Late results of treatment of maxillary fractures].

Abstract
In the period of 3 years, from 1984 to 1986 in the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery, Institute of Stomatology, Medical Academy in Warsaw 230 patients were treated for maxillary fractures. Late results of this treatment were assessed in 102 patients coming for control examinations in 1988. In the assessment of the therapeutic results the following features were considered: facial symmetry, proportions of three facial segments, functions of the visual system and stomatognathic system, nasal patency, and sensory disturbances in the area innervated by the infraorbital nerves. On the basis of this late assessment of the results of treatment of these fractures it was found that the definite morphological-functional and aesthetic results were unsatisfactory in cases of Le Fort III and II type maxillary fractures. This points out that the therapeutic methods used as yet are not sufficiently satisfactory and other methods should be evolved.
