Facial trauma can involve soft tissue injuries such as burns, lacerations, bruises and even fractures of the facial bones such as nasal fractures and fractures of the jaw as well as injury to the eye. Symptoms are specific to the type of injury that can be either signs of inflammation or changes in facial definition. Facial injuries have the potential to cause temporary deviations in facial delineation to permanent disfigurement of facial structures.

Introduction Nose injuries are of great importance in ENT and medico-legal practice. The importance lies in the frequency of injuries, diverse approaches to diagnosis, treatment and qualification of injuries used in legal proceedings in court. Objective assessment of health impairments due to an injury, requires knowledge about morphofunctional nasal characteristic, therapeutic procedures and medico-legal expertise. Nose injures: etiology and diagnosis Nasal fractures are the most common types of facial fractures which occur in different situations. They are often combined with soft tissue injuries. The diagnosis of nasal injuries involves clinical examination, radiography and nasal endoscopy. Classification and therapy of nose injuries There are several classifications of nasal injuries depending on pathological findings. The most acceptable one is the modified categorization after Harrison. The treatment of nasal injuries depends on the type of injury and possible complications. Qualification of nose injuries Nasal soft tissue injuries, nasal fractures, dislocations and partial dislocations should be assessed at the time of diagnosis. Conclusion Medical assessment of injuries is of utmost importance for legal purposes and regarding medico-legal aspects. .

Introduction: According to data from Perhimpunan Dokter Bedah Plastik Rekonstruksi dan Estetik Indonesia (PERAPI), there are only 193 plastic surgeons throughout Indonesia. There is no sufcient data that described pattern of incidence, workload, and role of Plastic Surgery in trauma cases at Indonesian Referral Center Hospital, especially in the Province of North Sumatra. Methods: This research is a descriptive study with a retrospective approach. Sample of this study was medical records of trauma patients who required Plastic Surgery who came to the H. Adam Malik General Hospital Medan Emergency Room (1 January 2016-31 December 2018). This study used total sampling method. Results: This study involved 536 patients and 40.85% included in the adult age range. Men vs women ratio is 3:1 (405 vs 131). Based on type of injury, the most common injury is facial trauma, followed by burns and soft tissue injuries (291, 178 and 66). The most common etiology is trafc accidents (90 cases). Most of facial bone fractures located at mandibular bone (segmental fracture). Inhalation trauma due to burns only occurred in 6 cases (3.24%). Most of soft tissue injuries occurred at lower extremities (upper limbs). Conclusion: Trafc accidents are the most common etiology for trauma in Plastic Surgery. Most of the patients are men and included in the adult age range. Facial trauma is the most common injury in Plastic Surgery. Most facial bone fractures located at mandible (symphysis and parasymphysis). Most of burns injury are re burns. Most soft tissue injuries are located at lower extremities (upper limbs).

AbstractFacial fractures and soft tissue injuries around the eyes, nose, and mouth can be difficult to manage in the primary setting, but if untreated, the secondary correction of facial trauma is very challenging. Prevention of soft tissue contraction by restoring the skeletal framework is ideal. Staged, individualized camouflage techniques can be effective in improving outcomes.
