| Summary: | Fractures of the frontal bone are quite common in the context of head and neck injuries representing 5–15% of facial fractures.In this work we report two cases of comminuted fractures of frontal bone following a car crash submitted to surgical reconstruction of fractures by osteosynthesis and application of an acrylic resin. The patients, after the stabilization of the clinical conditions, were treated by our Maxillofacial Surgery Unit of University Magna Grecia in Catanzaro in collaboration with Neurosurgery Unit in the same University. The use of osteosynthesis associated with the application of an acrylic resin in a single time represents the best surgical approach for the treatment of fractures of the frontal bone allowing to obtain a better definition of anatomical structures and also a good aesthetic result.The advantages of this double approach consist of reduced surgical times, hospitalization stay and costs, and a good aesthetic impact with positive psychological implications on the patient.
