Craniofacial trauma is common in the pediatric population, with most cases
limited to soft tissue and dentoalveolar injury. Although facial fractures are
relatively rare in children compared with adults, they are often associated with
severe injury and cause significant morbidity and disability. Initial evaluation
of a child with facial trauma generally involves stabilizing the patient and
identifying any severe concomitant injuries before diagnosing and managing facial
injuries. The management of pediatric facial fractures is relatively more
conservative than that of adults, and nonsurgical management is preferred when
possible to prevent the disruption of future growth and development. Outcomes
depend on the site of the injury, management plan, and subsequent growth, so
children must be followed longitudinally for monitoring and the identification of
any complications.
