Abstract
The zygomaticomaxillary complex and the orbital floor are commonly affected by mid-face fractures; their fractures pose challenges in reconstruction and can result in complications, such as enophthalmos. This study explores an intraoral approach with the help of a customized balloon technique and a contrast agent as an alternative to the conventional methods. A case report of a 67-year-old man with complex midfacial trauma is presented. The surgical process involved open reduction through an intraoral approach along with a transantral approach with the customized balloon technique. The procedure aimed to achieve reduction, fixation, and reconstruction of a complex mid-face fracture.
