Abstract
The majority of panfacial fractures are accompanied by concurrent organ damage. Panfacial fracture management is difficult and necessitates careful planning, sequencing, and sufficient understanding of the anatomy and management of the condition. In any trauma situation, the ABCDEs (airway, breathing, circulation, disability, and exposure) always remain the primary care priorities. Maxillofacial surgeons are essential in the early stabilization of fractures, the management of localized bleeding into the face, and the establishment of a definitive airway in specific circumstances. After the patient has stabilized and every systemic injury has been thoroughly assessed, the final course of treatment is typically initiated. Panfacial fractures require much more preparation in terms of treatment. This chapter provides a methodical explanation of the concept, covering everything from its philosophy and indications to its clinical results and adult management.
