INTRODUCTION:
The maxilla represents the bridge between the cranial base
superiorly and the dentition inferiorly. Its intimate association
with the oral cavity, nasal cavity, and orbits and the important
structures adjacent to it make the maxilla a functionally and
cosmetically important structure.
![Page 5: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Fracture of these bones is potentially life-threatening as
well as disfiguring. Hence we being maxillofacial
surgeons need to do systematic and timely repair of
these fractures to correct deformity and prevent
unfavorable sequalae.
![Page 6: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• The first clinical examination of a maxillary fracture was
recorded in 2500 BC.
• In 1822 Charles Fredrick William Reiche provided the
first detailed description of maxillary fractures.
• In 1823 Carl Ferdinand van Graefe described the use of a
head frame for treating a maxillary fracture.
HISTORY
![Page 7: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• In 1901 , Rene Le Fort published his landmark work, a
three-part experiment using 32 cadavers.
• The heads of the cadavers were subjected to low velocity
forces; the soft tissue were then removed and the bones
were examined.
HISTORY
![Page 8: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Le Fort noted that generally face was fractured and the
skull was not. He then stated that fractures occurred
through three weak lines in the facial bony structure. From
these three lines the Le Fort classification system was
developed.

SURGICAL ANATOMY OF MIDFACE
• Lacrimal fossa is partially formed by maxilla .Hence fracture can cause injury to nasolacrimal duct.
• Damage to infraorbital nerve can occur unilaterally or bilaterally in fracture of maxilla.
• Fracture involving orbital walls may give rise the change in the ocular level due to separation above the attachment of suspensory ligament of lockwood. (LeFort III)
• If orbital floor is fractured, there will be herniation of orbital content into maxillary sinus.
![Page 11: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
ETIOLOGY -
• Road traffic accidents (most common) -40%
• Industrial accidents- 10 %
• Assault -15%
• Sports.- 25 %
• Fall.- 10 %
![Page 12: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Most maxillary fractures occur in young men aged
between 16 to 40 years.
• Peak age- 21 - 25 years
• Male : Female - 4:1
![Page 13: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Lefort fracture classification
Rene LeFort (1901) discovered the complex
fracture patterns of Maxilla which is broadly
classified as
1. Lefort I
2. Lefort II
3. Lefort III
![Page 14: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER
(i) These fractures may occur unilaterally or may be
associated independently with a fracture of the zygomatic
complex.
(ii) There may be a midline separation of the maxillae or
extension of the fracture pattern into the frontal or
temporal bones.
![Page 15: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
LIMITATIONS OF THE lefort CLASSIFICATION
• The LeFort classification has proven to be less satisfactory
to describe more complex fracture patterns, comminuted,
incomplete, combination maxillary fractures or to describe
fractures of the part bearing the occlusal segment.
![Page 16: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Need for newer system:
• Midface fracture patterns now are far more complex than those
produced in Le Fort's laboratory.
• Fractures involving the cranial base and other midface fracture
configurations, including severely comminuted segments of the
facial skeleton, are not accurately classifiable using the traditional
Le Fort scheme.
• A more precise system of describing fracture patterns is necessary
to establish an accurate diagnosis & determine potential surgical
approaches.
![Page 17: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• MODIFIED LEFORT CLASSIFICATION:
Proposed by Marciani (1993)
• Le Fort I Low maxillary fracture
Ia Low maxillary fracture/multiple segments
• Le Fort II Pyramidal fracture
IIa Pyramidal and nasal fracture
IIb Pyramidal and NOE fracture
• Le Fort III Craniofacial disjunction
IIIa Craniofacial disjunction and nasal fracture
IIIb Craniofacial disjunction and NOE fracture.
(From: Marciani RD. Management of Midface Fractures: fifty years later. J Oral Maxillofac Surg 1993;51:962.)
![Page 18: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Le Fort IV LeFort II or III fracture and
cranial base fracture
IV a + Supraorbital rim fracture
IV b + Anterior cranial fossa and
supraorbital rim fracture
IV c + Anterior cranial fossa and
orbital wall fracture
![Page 19: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• There is separation of complete
dentoalveolar part of maxilla
(Pterygomaxillary dysjunction) and
the fractured fragment is held only by
means of soft tissues.
• Cause -
A violent force applied over more
extensive area of maxilla above the
level of maxillary teeth results in
Lefort I fracture.
![Page 20: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Fracture line –
The fracture line commences at
the point on the lateral margin
of the anterior nasal aperture,
passes above the nasal floor,
passes laterally above the canine
fossa and traverses the lateral
antral wall, dips down below the
zygomatic buttress and then
inclines upward and posteriorly
across the pterygomaxillary
fissure to fracture the pterygoid
laminae at the junction of their
lower third and upper 2/3 rd.
![Page 21: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
LE FORT II
Cause –
Violent force, usually from an
anterior direction, sustained
by the central region of the
middle third of the facial
skeleton over an area
extending from glabella to
the alveolar margins results
in fracture of pyramidal
shape .
![Page 22: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The fracture line runs below frontonasal suture from the thin middle area of nasal bones down on either side crossing the frontal process of maxilla and passes anteriorly across the lacrimalbone, immediately anterior to nasolacrimal canal. Then fracture line passes downward, forward and laterally crossing the inferior orbital margin in the region of zygomaticomaxillarysuture
Fracture line -
![Page 23: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• . It may or may not involve
infraorbital foramen. Then
fracture line now extends
downward, forward and
laterally to traverse the
lateral wall of antrum, just
medial
zygomaticomaxillary
suture line.
![Page 24: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
As in Lefort I , this fracture line
passes beneath the Zygomatic
buttress, inclines abruptly traversing
the pterygomaxillary fissure at a
higher level and fracturing
the pterygoid laminae approximately
midway from its base. Seperation of
entire pyramidal block from the base
of the skull is completed via nasal
Septum.
![Page 25: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Le Fort III
Cause -
Due to force from the lateral direction with a severe impact.
Here , the initial impact is taken by Zygomatic bone
resulting in depressed fracture. Then entire middle third will
then hinge about the fragile ethmoid bone and the impact
will then be transmitted to the contralateral side resulting in
laterally displaced zygomatic fracture of opposite side.
(Craniofacial dysjunction)
![Page 26: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
FRACTURE LINE -
• Line commences near the
frontonasal suture, causes
dislocation of the nasal
bones and disruption of
cribriform plate of the
ethmoid bone.Then line
crosses both the nasal bones
and frontal process of
maxilla, near the frontonasal
and frontomaxillary sutures
and then traverses the upper
limit of the lacrimal bones .
![Page 27: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• continuing posteriorly, the
line crosses the thin orbital
plate of the ethmoid bone
constituting part of the
medial wall of the orbit. As
optic foramen is surrounded
by a dense ring of bone,
Then fracture line gets
deflected downward and
laterally to reach the medial
aspect of the posterior limit
of the inferior orbital fissure.
![Page 28: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• From this point , fracture
descends across the upper
posterior aspect of maxillae in
the region of sphenopalatine
fossa and upper limit of
pterygomaxillary fissures and
fractures the roots of pterygoid
laminae at its base.
![Page 29: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
From anterior and lateral aspect of
inferior orbital fissure, line passes
across the lateral wall of orbit ,
adjacent to the junction of zygomatic
bone with greater wing of sphenoid
.The fracture line seperates
zygomatic bone from frontal bone
near suture and then inclines laterally
, running abruptly downwards across
the infratemporal surface, thus in
effect joins the previous line of
fracture seen on medial wall of orbit .
![Page 30: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The entire middle third is thus
detached from the dense cranial
base.
![Page 31: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

2. Zygomaticomaxillary (Lefort –II)
3. Frontonasal (LeFort –II &III)
4. Zygomaticofrontal (Lefort III)
5. Zygomatic bone (comminuted)
![Page 80: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Disadvantages -
Non rigid type of osteosynthesis
No 3 dimensional stability, it provides only
monoplane traction.
IMF is always needed
Interfragmentary pressure can not be controlled.
Under functional stress, wire loses rigidity, direction
control and surface contact.
Delayed healing because of micromovement at
fracture site.

PRINCIPLES OF MAXILLARY
RECONSTRUCTION
• Miniplates can bridge gaps of up to approximately 0.5cms
• Gaps >0.5cms – bone grafts
• Bone grafts bridging the gap should be wedged
underneath the plate & held in place with screws fixed
from plate directly into the graft.
![Page 102: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
IMMEDIATE BONE GRAFTING
Buttress reinforcement retained by plates or screws can
assist in restoring maxillary height & preventing
Contour deficiencies.
• Rib graft
• Iliac crest
• Calvaria
• Mandibular bone graft
• Alloplastic bone graft
![Page 103: Le fort fracture by Dr. Amit Suryawanshi .Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, Pune , India](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062406/5597a70c1a28abb77a8b45fc/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)
CONCLUSION:
Le fort fractures are common in the trauma patient. They
require accurate radiologic diagnosis and surgical
management to prevent severe functional debilities and
cosmetic deformity.
A thorough understanding of the anatomy, craniofacial
buttresses and treatment options will give the maxillofacial
surgeon the optimal tools for achieving a successful result.
