Özet
Gillies method is widely used for zygomatic arch fractures. Many modifications were suggested over time but Gillies method is still carry on popularity. Seventeen patients with isolated zygomatic arch fractures who were treated with Gillies method between 2016 and 2021 were included in this study. All patients were male and the mean age was 23 years (20-32). All operations were performed under sedation anesthesia. All patients healed uneventfully. Only one transient frontal branch of facial nerve paralysis was seen in the follow-up. Etiology of zygomatic arc fractures were sports injury in 9 patients (53%), motorcycle accident in 3 patients (17.6%), assault in 3 patients (17.6), and sencop in 2 patients (11.7%). Zygomatic arch fractures were located on left zygomatic arch in 13 patients (76.5%), right zygomatic arch in 4 patients (23.5%). Eleven patients (64.7%) were operated in 1 week and 6 patients were operated on the second week (35.3%) after the injury. We think that Gillies method is still very useful in the treatment of isolated zygomatic arch fractures.
