The rationale and technique of endoscopic approach to the zygomatic arch in facial trauma.

2006 
: The reliable form and strategic position of the zygomatic arch make it a valuable landmark in midfacial trauma management. The benefits of arch repair have been used infrequently, mainly because traditional coronal access to this structure is fraught with undesirable sequelae. Endoscope-assisted zygomatic arch realignment and fixation allow anatomic repair without sustaining the drawbacks of extensive access incisions. The relative importance of this approach increases with trauma complexity, being most useful in Le Fort III and complex zygoma injuries.
