OBJECTIVE: To analyze retrospectively 419 @entity1 after the Wenchuan earthquake and 46 after Yushu earthquake with @entity174 so as to provide reference on @entity1 ' treatment after an earthquake. METHOD: We investigated 419 @entity1 after Wenchuan earthquake and 46 after Yushu earthquake with @entity174 who were admitted to the West China Hospital of Stomatology and other 46 hospitals in 10 provinces. RESULT: A total of 58 @entity1 had @entity174 (13.8%) including 33 (56.9%) @entity1 and 25 (43.1%) @entity1 after the Wenchuan earthquake and 6 (13%) had @entity174 after Yushu earthquake. Most @entity1 were injured by pressing or burying. The nasal-orbital-ethmoidal region was the most frequent site of the maxillofacial @entity174 (58.6% in the Wenchuan earthquake and 66.7% in the Yushu earthquake). The most prevalent pattern of maxillofacial @entity174 was multiple and/or comminuted @entity174 (87.9% in the Wenchuan earthquake and 100% in the Yushu earthquake). There were 48 (82.8%) @entity1 with associated injuries, and the most common site was extremity injuries (58.6%) after Wenchuan earthquake. Few @entity1 received adequate prehospital treatment, with bandages predominantly. Most @entity1 (65.5% in the Wenchuan earthquake and 100% in the Yushu earthquake) underwent open reduction and rigid internal fixation. We failed to find any @entity1 with generalized infection. However, all @entity1 in our study presented the symptoms of @entity1005 . CONCLUSION: We analyze the characteristics of @entity174 after the two earthquakes, so as to improve our medical emergency system when such disasters happen again.
