We present a case of an adolescent patient with multiple mandibular fractures diagnosed by point-of-care ultrasound in the pediatric emergency department. Sonographic findings consistent with fracture were identified in our patient, and early consultation expedited interdepartmental coordination and disposition. The role of ultrasound in identifying various traumatic orthopedic and maxillofacial injuries is discussed.
我们报告了一例青少年患者,在儿科急诊科通过床旁超声诊断为多发性下颌骨骨折。在我们的患者中发现了与骨折相符的超声检查结果,早期会诊加快了部门间的协调和处置。本文讨论了超声在识别各种创伤性骨科和颌面损伤中的作用。
