Conditions

Le Fort fractures present complex challenges in airway management, and the optimal timing for tracheostomy in these cases remains controversial. This study compares preoperative tracheostomy under local anesthesia with post-surgical tracheostomy under general anesthesia in patients with Le Fort fractures II-III. Airway management
