Epidemiology of Maxillofacial Injuries in the Swords of Iron War: Insights From a National Registry
MFI in combat settings demands specialized trauma care, particularly for fractures requiring surgical intervention and intensive care. The high prevalence of orbital fractures and their association with severe head injuries highlight the need for early recognition and intervention despite their being less prone to surgical correction. These findings can inform trauma care protocols to optimize management and outcomes in future conflicts.
