  • Maxillofacial Osseous Reconstruction in One-stage Operation Combined with Craniotomy for Moderate Craniocerebral Injury

    ObjectiveTo explore the value of maxillofacial osseous reconstruction in one-stage operation combined with craniotomy for moderate craniocerebral injury. MethodsA retrospective study was conducted by analyzing the clinical and radiographic results of 13 patients treated between January 2008 and February 2015. Among them, 7 patients admitted into the hospital between January 2008 and December 2009 were regarded as the control group. Among the 7 patients, 5 were males and 2 were females, aged between 22 and 66 years old, averaging (44.3±15.9) years old. The patients of the control group underwent craniotomy within 24 hours after admission, and accepted the second stage operation for maxillofacial reconstruction 3 to 5 weeks later. The other 6 patients including 4 males and 2 females aged between 27 and 57 years old, averaging (40.2±10.7) years old, admitted into the hospital between January 2010 and February 2015 were designated into the observation group. They underwent maxillofacial osseous reconstruction in one-stage operation combined with craniotomy within 24 hours after admission. The treatment effect, leakage of cerebrospinal fluid, intracranial infection and average length of stay were analyzed and compared. ResultsIn the control group, there were 5 cases of cerebrospinal rhinorrhea preoperatively, and all were cured after craniotomy. During the second stage operation for maxillofacial reconstruction, bone callus and scar tissue presented in all cases and poor reconstruction occurred to 3 cases. After reconstruction, cerebrospinal rhinorrhea recurred in 2 cases. The average length of stay was (43.4±4.5) days. For the observation group there were 3 cases of cerebrospinal rhinorrhea preoperatively, and one of them remained after the operation and cured 7 days later. The average length of stay was (22.7±2.7) days. None of the 13 patients suffered intracranial infection. ConclusionMaxillofacial osseous reconstruction should be considered in one-stage operation combined with craniotomy for moderate craniocerebral injury
