The aim of this study was to determine the etiology, dissemination of mandibular fractures among different age, gender, and to determine the frequency of anatomic distribution in patients who reported to our institution from February 2015 to September 2015.
All patients who fulfilled the selection criteria and had mandible fracture were selected for the study. The values were subjected to Z and Chi-square tests.
Out of 50 patients, 44 were male patients (88%) and 6 were female patients (12%). We found a peak occurrence of fractures in young adults, with mean age of 36 years. In case of etiology of fracture, road traffic accident was the most common (72%) and parasymphysis was most frequently involved site (n = 13.26%).
In this study, the prevalence of mandibular fracture was more prevalent in male patients, especially during the third decade of life. The most common cause was road traffic accident and the more frequently affected region was parasymphysis of the mandible.
本研究旨在确定下颌骨骨折的病因、传播在不同年龄、性别中的分布,并确定 2015 年 2 月至 2015 年 9 月期间向我院报告的患者的解剖分布频率。
所有符合选择标准且有下颌骨骨折的患者均被选入研究。对这些数值进行 Z 检验和卡方检验。
在 50 名患者中,男性患者 44 例(88%),女性患者 6 例(12%)。我们发现骨折的高发年龄在青年人,平均年龄为 36 岁。就骨折的病因而言,道路交通伤害最为常见(72%),正中联合处最常受累(n = 13.26%)。
在这项研究中,下颌骨骨折在男性患者中更为常见,尤其是在 30 多岁时。最常见的原因是道路交通伤害,最常受累的区域是下颌正中联合处。
