Neglected fractures of the facial bones.

Early treatment of fractures of the facial skeleton is mandatory, whenever possible. However, a number of factors, such as the general condition of the patient, the availability of proper facilities at the hospital, where he is transferred, the distance he has to travel to reach proper facilities, the awareness of the hospital staff of the maxillofacial problems and others often delay the correct treatment. We report our experience in the field, where many of the above factors often play a role resulting in neglected fractures of the facial skeleton.
