Objectives: To prevent aesthetic and functional deformities, precisely closed reduction is crucial in the management of nasal fractures. Plain film radiography (PF), ultrasonography (USG), and computed tomography can help confirm the diagnosis and classification of fractures and assist in performing closed reduction. However, no study in the literature reports on precisely closed reduction assisted with PF measurements under the picture archiving and communication system (PACS). Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 153 patients with nasal bone fracture between January 2013 and December 2017. Surgeons conducted precisely closed reduction assisted with PF measurement of the distance between the fracture site and nasal tip under PACS on 34 patients (group A). Another group on 119 patients were reduced under surgeon’s experience (group B). Results: No significant differences in age, gender, Arbeitsgemeinschaft fur Osteosynthesefragen (AO) classification, and reduction outcome were observed between group A and group B ( P > .05). The operative time of the group A was significantly lower (12.50 ± 4.64 minutes) compared to group B (23.78 ± 11.20 minutes; P < .001). After adjusted age, gender, and AO classification, patients in group A scored 10.46 minutes less on the operative time than those in group B ( P < .001). In addition, the severity of nasal bone fracture (AO classification, β = 3.37, P = .002) was positive associated with the operative time. Conclusions: In this study, closed reduction in nasal bone fracture assisted with PF measurements under PACS was performed precisely, thereby effectively decreasing operative time and the occurrence of complications. This procedure requires neither the use of new instruments or C-arm nor USG or navigation experience. Moreover, reduction can be easily performed using this method, and it requires short operative time, helps achieve great reduction, less radiation exposures, and is cost-effective.

Nasal bone fractures are the most common among facial fractures. Usually these are adequately treated with closed reduction and internal and/or external stabilization with splints. However, there are clinical situations where the nasal bones are severely displaced, the nasal septum fractured and displaced, or there are external drape lacerations which preclude the use of nasal splints. If the nasal bones are reducible but unstable we consider them “flail” and in this case transmucosal, endonasal Kirschner wires are used for dorsal support until sufficient healing occurs. The technique is simple, quick, and predictable and causes minimal discomfort to the patients.

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate mode of injury and different management options reliant on types of nasal bone fractures. Study design Prospective analytical study. Subjects and methods Seventy-five patients with nasal bone fractured were clinically and radiologically evaluated and divided into different types according to Lee's classification. They were provided conservative, closed reduction and/or osteotomy according to the type of fracture and outcome noted. Results Lee's classification is found to be valid in real patient scenarios and using good radiological evaluation better post operative outcome can be achieved. For type 1 and 3 fractures, closed reduction and osteotomy are the treatment of choice. Conclusion We confirm that systematic approach on Lee's classification for nasal bone fracture can be used to select appropriate management strategy.

Introdução: Os ossos nasais são os mais proeminentes do esqueleto facial, tornando esses os mais frequentes nas fraturas faciais, sendo o terceiro osso mais comumente fraturado do esqueleto humano. Objetivo: Apresentar um relato de caso de fratura nasal em um paciente pediatrico tratado com redução incruenta. Método: Estudo descritivo com um paciente que apresentou diagnóstico clínico/imaginológico de fratura nasal. Conclusão: O tratamento através de redução incluenta mostrou-se adequado em pacientes pediatricos. A ocorrência de traumatismos e lesões associadas a fraturas nasais reforça a importância de uma abordagem multidisciplinar.Descritores: Fraturas Ósseas; Osso Nasal; Traumatismos Faciais.ReferênciasMa L, Shen SH, Hu P, Wu ZQ.

This study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of closed reduction of nasal bone fracture according to severity. It was a retrospective study carried on 60 patients with mean age of 30.2 years (range 10-67 years) who have undergone a closed reduction of a nasal bone fracture at Gandaki Medical College Teaching Hospital from January 2017 to December 2019. The patient with nasal bone fracture who underwent surgical intervention with closed reduction under General anaesthesia were included in this study. Fracture severity was evaluated according to Hwang et al.’s classification method. All patients underwent closed reduction with external nasal splinting under General anesthesia. The patients were followed-up for at least three months to assess the complications, such as fracture recurrence and functional abnormality in the Department. The most common cause of nasal bone fracture was road traffic accidents 25 (41.6%) followed by physical assaults 18 (30%), fall injuries 12 (20%), other incidences 3 (5%), and industrial accidents 2 (3%). Forty-three (72%) cases underwent closed reduction within 24 hours of those who arrived within 4-6 hour of nasal injury in the hospital and the remaining 17 (28%) cases were reduced after 5 days of trauma. Concurrent fracture found in 8 (13%) cases and it included maxillary, zygomatic, orbital, frontal bone fracture. Nasal bone fracture mostly occurs in road traffic accidents. Closed reduction with good alignment is the preferred method. Septorhinoplasty and extracorporeal septoplasty should be applied in difficult and comminuted nasoseptal fracture.
