Chemosis as complication in transconjunctival approach for orbital trauma
The aim of this report was to discuss a complication resulting from a transconjunctival approach to treating an orbital fracture. A 30-year-old male patient presented with a fracture to the zygomatic orbital complex. He was treated with transconjunctival conventional surgical treatment. Two days after surgical treatment, the patient presented with secondary chemosis which was initially slight a...

متن کاملTraumatic transconjunctival orbital emphysema.
Orbital emphysema can be produced by trans-conjunctival migration of air from a high pressure airgun. In an industrial accident an 8 mm conjunctival laceration was produced in the superior fornix which acted as a portal of entry for air into the subconjunctival, subcutaneous, and retrobulbar spaces. Computed tomography revealed no evidence of orbital fracture and showed that traumatic orbital e...
متن کاملA difficult surgical approach for primary orbital hydatid cyst: transconjunctival medial orbitotomy
Hydatid cysts rarely appear isolated in the orbital cavity without involvement of other organs. The cysts are usually located in the retrobulbar region, and may be extraconal or intraconal. Herein we present a case of primary orbital cyst hydatid that is adjacent to the medial rectus muscle and optic nerve in the intraconal space and the difficulties during the surgical and medical treatment pe...
متن کاملUpper lid transconjunctival versus transcutaneous approach for fracture repair of the lateral orbital rim.
The use of the lower eyelid transconjunctival approach in the setting of orbital trauma has becoming increasingly popular in recent years. However, experience has found that access to the lateral orbital rim can be somewhat limited with this type of incision. Many authors supplement the approach with a lateral canthotomy in order to gain adequate access laterally. Although usually well tolerate...
