Midfacial fractures have a wide variety of appearance. The original classification by Le Fort is still in use. Nasal-orbital-ethmoidal (NOE) fractures deserve special attention. Next to clinical evaluation detailed computer tomography is necessary. Extended open reduction and internal fixation with various mini- and microplate osteosyntheses as well as immediate reconstruction with calvarian bone are essential components of surgical treatment aiming for adequate function and esthetics. Reduction of increased inner intercanthal distances is a substantial part of the treatment of NOE fractures. Surgical repair within 48-72 hours benefits the final result and limits the number and extent of secondary corrections.
