200 consecutive patients undergoing craniofacial operations have been reviewed and the complications and problems encountered are reported.

Complications occurred in 22% of patients overall and the mortality rate was 1%. Complications in the 'disaster or life-threatening' category were seen in 9.5% of patients. Infection rate was low at 1%.
