In this study, we used the relatively recent Paraskeletal clamp system (Mennen plate) to evaluate its effectiveness in the treatment of mandibular fractures. This study was conducted on eight patients with mandibular fractures selected from the out patient clinic, Oral Surgery Department, Faculty of Oral and Dental Medicine, Cairo University. Patient sample consisted of six males and two females, four patients were children below the age of 11 years, while the other four were edentulous above the age of 58. Each patient was thoroughly examined both clinically and radiographically. Data collected from each patient were recorded in a special examination chart. Under general anesthesia, the fracture was exposed using a submandibular approach. The fractured segments were reduced and fixed using micro-5 Mennen plates. All patients were followed up both clinically and radiographically for six months postoperatively. Results obtained from this study showed uneventful healing of all patients with no cases of non-union, bony infection or osteomyelitis as proven both clinically and radiographically. All the patients presented normal functioning occlusion and facial symmetry. No bony step deformities were detected.
在本研究中，我们使用了相对较新的副骨骼固定系统（门嫩板）来评估其在下颌骨骨折治疗中的有效性。本研究对从开罗大学口腔与牙科学院口腔外科门诊挑选出的8例下颌骨骨折患者进行。患者样本包括6名男性和2名女性，4名患者年龄在11岁以下，为儿童，另外4名患者年龄在58岁以上，为无牙颌患者。对每位患者都进行了全面的临床和影像学检查。从每位患者收集的数据记录在一份特殊的检查表中。在全身麻醉下，采用下颌下入路暴露骨折部位。使用微型5门嫩板对骨折段进行复位和固定。所有患者术后均进行了6个月的临床和影像学随访。本研究获得的结果显示，所有患者均顺利愈合，未出现骨不连、骨感染或骨髓炎病例，临床和影像学检查均证实了这一点。所有患者均呈现正常的功能咬合和面部对称性。未检测到骨台阶畸形。
