ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine prevalence, distribution, and
associated factors of maxillofacial fractures (MFs) among
third-party insurance plan patients. Method: A crosssectional
and descriptive study with data of patients from
Oral and Maxilofacial Surgery Department (January 1994
to December-1999) at the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro
Social in Campeche, Mexico, was carried out. Daily
registries, surgical programming lists' and charts of 1,611
patients were used to determine presence of MFs, age, sex,
and status of the insured. Analysis was made in STATA 7
using χ
2. Odds ratio (OR) with confidence intervals to 95%
were calculated (1C95%). Results: The prevalence of MFs
was 9.4%. The age average was 31.04 ± 15.49 years old.
The major percentage of MFs were dentoalveolar fractures
(26.3%), followed by mandibular angle (20.4%) and
mandibular body (13.2%). Being a male was strongly
associated with presence of MFs (OR=6. 1; 1C95% 4.08,
9.12). The groups of age with greater association to MFs
were those of 41-50 (RM—3.30 1C95% 1.57, 6.96) and
those of 31-40 (RM=2.87 1C95% 1.53, 5.55). The workers
category displayed a superior association (RM=6.25 1C95%
3.21, 13.56) to the other groups of the insured category.
Conclusions: The epidemiologic characteristics of MFs
were similar to those reported in the specialized literature.
Appearing mainly in men and intermediate age groups
ages. The patterns of fractures in the studied patients were
different according to the age group to which they belonged.
