Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 09/08/08
Czerwinski M et al. - Infections following mandibular fractures frequently require extended treatment and significantly increase costs. These results show that delay of mandibular fracture treatment greater than 72 hours does not significantly increase infection risk. Repair should occur promptly after the injury. If that is not possible, the standard patient management should not be altered, as the benefits of doing so are unproven.
