A total of 28 fractures were displaced (and 16 involved the frontal bone). Computed tomography was performed in 11 cases. Postoperative median hospitalization after surgery was 11\u2009days (range: 4\u201357). Sinus lavage during surgery was performed in 22 of 25 surgically treated horses (84%). Median antimicrobial and non\u2010steroidal anti\u2010inflammatory drug (NSAID) administration lasted 15 (range: 4\u201326) and 8\u2009days (range: 2\u201324), respectively. Complications included temporary nasal discharge in nine horses (31%) and wound infection in two horses (6.9%). At a median follow\u2010up time of 830\u2009days (range: 142\u20131754), 28 of the 29 treated horses (96.6%) were successfully recovered. Cosmetic defects were recorded in 22 animals (75.9%).
