This article discusses the etiology and classification of zygomatic fractures, as well as indications and methods of surgery. Osteosynthesis with a miniplate is a new treatment modality for unstable zygomatic fractures. The operative procedure is relatively simple and gives good cosmetic and functional results. We describe the technique illustrated with pre- and postoperative x-rays of a patient.
