Zygoma
What is a typical fracture pattern for the Zygoma?
Tripod. Fracture lines at the 3 points
This is a transverse fracture line along the Maxilla, into the zygomatic-maxillary & into the
pterygoid-maxillary buttress
LeFort I
This is a pyramidal fracture splitting the maxilla above the nasal bridge, extending to the infra
orbital rim and zygomatic-maxillary and into the pterygoid buttress
