Management of Facial Trauma - Previously the Principles of Operative Treatment of Craniomaxillofacial Trauma & Reconstruction (Oct, 2017)
In-Person Event
Oct 21 - 22, 2017
Arlington, Virginia, USA
OVERVIEW
Management of Facial Trauma - Previously the Principles of Operative Treatment of Craniomaxillofacial Trauma & Reconstruction is Organized by AOTrauma North America and would be held during Oct 21 - 22, 2017 at DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Washington DC-Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia, United States Of America.
The target audience for this medical event for surgeons in training in the fields of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Otolaryngology, Plastics and Reconstruction, Ophthalmology, and Oculoplastics. Practicing surgeons may also find this course beneficial. This CME Conference has been approved with a maximum of 13.25 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits
The principles courses are designed to equip surgeons with the state-of-the-art skills and techniques for treating and managing CMF fractures from trauma, as well as congenital defects, secondary correction of injuries and aesthetic reconstruction. Highlights of the course will include sessions on anatomy, biomechanics, surgical approaches and principles of internal fixation of the mandible and midface. Experts in the field of CMF Surgery will compare and contrast current methods and provide indications for the use of these techniques. The modular course format will focus on the craniomaxillofacial patient in a conceptual case study and practical exercise format. Participants in small groups will rotate through each module over the two day course. These modules compliment both the lectures and the practical exercises by discussing the four AO Principles of Fracture Fixation
• Anatomic Reduction of the fracture fragments, particularly joint fractures
• Stable fixation to ensure proper healing of the fracture allowing surrounding tissue to move and strengthen
• Atraumatic surgical technique to preserve blood supply to the bone fragments and soft tissue
• Early, pain free mobilization returning the patient to function as soon as possible
