With the increase of people’s mobilization and a growing level of transportation, causing accident that led to increased facial trauma. The research objective was to determine the incidence of facial fractures in patients SMF BLU Surgical Hospital Prof. R. D. Kandou the period January 2012 to December 2012. Research method: Retrospective descriptive study of the medical records in SMF BLU Surgical Hospital Prof. Dr. R.D. Kandou Manado from January 2012 to December 2012 is used in this paper.

Dengan peningkatan mobilisasi penduduk serta tingkat transportasi yang berkembang, menyebabkan insiden kecelakaan yang menyebabkan trauma fasial meningkat. Tujuan penelitian adalah Untuk mengetahui angka kejadian penderita fraktur tulang fasial di SMF Bedah BLU RSU Prof. R. D. Kandou periode Januari 2012 sampai Desember 2012. Metode penelitian: metode retrospektif deskriptif melalui penelitian data rekam medik di SMF Bedah BLU RSU Prof. Dr. R.D. Kandou Manado periode Januari 2012 sampai Desember 2012. Hasil penelitian: Jumlah penderita fraktur fasial yang dirawat di SMF Bedah periode Januari 2012-Desember 2012 sebanyak 156 kasus (5,60%) dari total 2786 trauma fasial yang dirawat.
