AB  - Maxillofacial  trauma  in  children  more  often  results  in  soft-tissue  injury  than  facial  fractures.Up  to  55%  of  seriously  injured  children  with  facial  trauma  also  have  intracranial  injury.The  most  urgent  complication  of  facial  trauma  is  airway  compromise.Computed  tomography  (CT)  scan  is  the  definitive  diagnostic  test  for  precise  delineation  of  maxillofacial  fractures.The  mandible  is  most  frequently  involved  in  posttraumatic  developmental  deformities.Timely  referral  of  nasal  fractures  is  important,  as  these  injuries  may  have  a  profound  effect  on  subsequent  nasal  and  maxillofacial  development.
