Abstract
A method is described for external immobilization of the facial skeleton. The method is only indicated in a few cases. By means of Vitallium screws and a small head cap of plaster of Paris it is possible to achieve stiff, external immobilization of facial fractures, even when they are situated in the frontal bones. The Mini-Cap permits the patient to rest comfortably and costs very little.
