[Fibrous dysplasia of the facial bones (author's transl)].

On the occasion of three cases of fibrous dysplasia (two of frontal sinus and the ethmoids and one of the upper jaw) the problem of fibrous dysplasia of the jaws is analysed. The clinical picture is characterized by a slow and gradual emergence of facial assymetric or exophathalmos. Histologically there is a variety of form. The treatment is largely a remodeling osteotomy. The writers effectively applied on all three cases a radial removal of the lesion.

[Computer-tomography of the facial bones (part I). Demonstration of various structures and deeply placed regions (author's transl)].

Conventional diagnosis of facial structures by endoscopy and conventional tomography often meets with the following difficulties: 1. Deeply placed areas cannot be seen, or are only partly visible by endoscopy. 2. Conventional tomography produces a two-dimensional section of a three dimensional object which may be confused by out of focus tomographic shadows. Our first attempts at computer tomographic examination of the facial structures in 41 patients have shown that this technique, working with parallel rays and without confusing shadows, is able to provide an accurate morphological demonstration of various structures and organs in the facial region.

[Modern principles in treatment of complex injuries of the facial bones].

Concepts in the treatment of craniomaxillofacial fractures have changed over the last 15 years. Modern imaging techniques have become a central part in establishing a proper diagnosis. Advanced life support and intensive care medicine allow for early primary fracture treatment. The former principles of minimal exposure of bone fragments using small incisions have been replaced by principles from reconstructive craniofacial surgery comprising extensive subperiosteal dissection, exposure of all fracture lines, open reduction and rigid internal fixation. Missing bony structures are replaced primarily by autogenous bone grafts. Using these concepts, most late esthetic and functional sequelae of facial fractures can be diminished remarkably.
