The AO Surgery Reference Cranio-Maxillofacial (AOSR-CMF), the award-winning, free online knowledge base for the surgical management of musculoskeletal injuries, has released a fully revised and updated module on midface trauma surgery. 

What does the revision include?

This comprehensive revision provides surgeons with the most up-to-date, evidence-based, and clinically relevant guidance for the treatment of midfacial fractures and complex trauma. The module offers step-by-step surgical instructions covering every stage of patient care—from initial diagnosis and decision-making to surgical approaches, fixation techniques, and postoperative aftercare.

Developed and peer-reviewed by an international team of expert craniomaxillofacial surgeons, the updated module reflects the latest advances in surgical principles, technology, and patient management. The authors of this revised module are Daniel Borsuk, Juan Carlos Orellana Tosi, and Gulraiz Zulfiqar. Paul Manson is the executive editor.

“The revised midface trauma content represents a significant enhancement to the AO Surgery Reference,” said Daniel Buchbinder, DMD, MD, general editor of the AOSR-CMF “It continues our commitment to delivering the highest-quality, accessible surgical education and supporting surgeons worldwide in achieving the best possible outcomes for their patients.”

The AO Surgery Reference is freely available via web browser and through dedicated mobile apps for iOS and Android, ensuring global accessibility—whether in the operating room, the clinic, or on the go.
