Paired bone of the human skull, situated on the lateral edge of the eye sockets.
The slender arch formed by the temporal process of the cheekbone that bridges to the zygomatic process of the temporal bone.
1I suffered a concussion and a hairline fracture of my right zygoma.
2Conclusions: This is the largest reported survey on the repair of zygoma fractures.
3A considerable number of fractures to the upper jaw and zygoma.
4The survey queried training background, zygoma fracture treatment preferences, and rationale.
5The forward projection of the zygoma and the zygomatic arch often expose them to injury.
6The response rate suggests dominance of OMFS in zygoma fracture care, an area pioneered by PS.
7The zygoma is located in the medial and lateral parts of the face, supporting the midfacial contour.
8In another patient a bullet entered above the right zygoma and traversed the orbits, without wounding the globes.
9Fractures of the zygoma can lead to the displacement of the zygoma and the zygomatic arch, causing facial collapse deformity.
10His jaw is intact, as are both zygomas-atleast to an extent that would rule out surgical intervention.
