36
Q

What sponges are used during maxillofacial surgery?

A

4 x 4 and cottonoids

37
Q

What is a fundamental goal of any maxillomandibular procedure?

A

A

wire cutters

39
Q

Arch bars are sutured into place using _____.

A

24- or 26- stainless steel suture wires

40
Q

When applying arch bars, the stainless steel suture is twisted into a _____ loop.

A

clockwise

41
Q

Fractures of the midface are reduced and fixated and the buttressing structures are reinforced.

A

open reduction/internal fixation: midface fracture

42
Q

What type of fracture is also associated with leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) into the nasal sinuses?

A

Le Fort II fracture

43
Q

What are weight-bearing structures of the face?

A

buttresses

44
Q

Performed to repair CSF leakage, prevent obstruction or the frontal sinus ducts, and restore an aesthetic contour to the forehead.

A

open reduction/internal fixation: frontal sinus fracture

45
Q

Fractures of the psoterior wall of the frontal sinus may result in _____.

A

CSF leakage or herniation of brain tissue

What solution is a fat graft placed into to keep it moist until the surgeon is ready to place it in the frontal sinus?

A
