Popis: | To describe the association between age and location of facial fractures in the pediatric population.A retrospective analysis of the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP) from the 2016 Kids' Inpatient Database (KID) in children aged ≤18 years was conducted. International Statistical Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) codes were used to extract facial fracture diagnoses. Logistic regression was used to evaluate and compare the contribution of various demographic factors among patients who had different types of facial fractures.A total of 5568 admitted patients were identified who sustained any type of facial bone fracture. Patients who had facial fractures were significantly more likely to be male (68.2% versus 31.8%; p0.001) and were older with a mean age of 12.86 years (95% confidence interval [CI]: 12.72-12.99). Approximately one-third of patients with a facial fracture had a concomitant skull base or vault fracture. Maxillary fractures were seen in 30.9% of the cohort while mandibular fractures occurred in 36.9% of patients. The most common mandibular fracture site was the symphysis (N=574, 27.9% of all mandibular fractures). Condylar fractures were more common in younger children while angle fractures were more common in teenagers. Regression analysis found that age was the only significant contributor to the presence of a mandibular fracture (β=0.027, p0.001) and race was the only significant contributor to maxillary fractures (β=-0.090, p0.001).Facial fractures increase in frequency with increasing age in children. The mandible was the most commonly fractured facial bone, with an age-related pattern in fracture location. |
