Popis: | Facial fractures, often related to traffic accidents, assault, work-related accidents, or falls, account for a considerable number of emergencies in our hospitals and are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) is the imaging technique of choice in this scenario because it is widely available, fast, and useful for characterizing facial fractures and associated complications, including those located in the head. For all these reasons, MDCT is fundamental in the clinical management of these patients and in planning surgery. This paper describes the radiological anatomy of the facial region, underlining the importance of the facial buttresses, and it indicates the key points necessary for carrying out a structured approach and elaborating the corresponding radiologic report. |
