Delayed Foreign Body Reaction Caused by Bioabsorbable Plates Used for Maxillofacial Fractures

摘要

BackgroundBioabsorbable plates and screws are commonly used to reduce maxillofacial bones, particularly in pediatric patients because they degrade completely without complications after bone healing. In this study, we encountered eight cases of a delayed foreign body reaction after surgical fixation with bioabsorbable plates and screws.
