ABSTRACT

The nasal fracture is the most frequent among the fractures of the facial bones, being able to generate important aesthetic alterations and in turn determine changes in functionality, treating them immediately avoids complications for the patient. In order to characterize the nasal fractures treated in the maxillofacial surgery emergency service of the “Carlos Manuel de Céspedes” hospital, a descriptive observational study was carried out that included all the patients (105) who were seen outpatiently with a diagnosis of recent nasal fracture in the emergency department in the period from January 2018 to December 2019. The variables studied were age, sex, origin, etiological factors, clinical signs, classification according to displacement, exposure of the fracture site and direction of the trauma. A data collection sheet was prepared. Whole numbers, percentages and statistical tables were used. Ethical principles for human research were followed. The most affected population was between 20 and 29 years of age, of urban origin and male. An association was found between sex and etiological factors, predominantly physical aggression in men and accidental falls in women. The main clinical sign present in the patients was epistaxis. Displaced nasal fractures with lateral and closed deviations predominated in both sexes.
