Abstract

Facial fractures when not properly treated can interfere with the child's bone development, once the patient is in the growth phase. These traumas are not very common and require attention during the clinical and imaging examination to obtain a correct diagnosis and planning of the case. The article in question reports the surgical treatment of a case of fracture of the orbital zygomatic complex in a pediatric patient, where reduction and fixation of the fracture was performed with titanium plates and after 6 months the same forams were successfully removed.
