Our patient was involved in a MVA (Matatu Vehicle Accident) 3 months previous. Having an image like this (3-D CT scan reconstruction) is a rarity. He was diagnosed with multiple avulsed teeth, bilateral symphaseal jaw fractures, and fracture of the left maxilla with displacement.
We will see how the treatment goes as the fractures are 3 months old and have begun to fuse and unite in the wrong positions. The lesson learned could be if you have a seatbelt, buckle up!
Holy moley! Badness. Gear up for your orthognathic surgery! Where he did the 3D CT recons?
ReplyDeleteKenyatta Hospital-Nairobi....I have no idea of the fee.
ReplyDeleteDrew--do you have any extra plates or screw sets?

Dad says that those are excellent x-rays. Are you waiting for him to come and be your assistant in the OR? He says it can be fixed without screws. Wow. We are counting the days. Grammie
