Orbital Blowout Fracture with Complete Dislocation of the Globe into the Maxillary Sinus

Orbital Blowout Fracture with Complete Dislocation of the Globe into the Maxillary Sinus

This rare case report describes the diagnosis and treatment of an isolated left-sided orbital floor fracture with a complete dislocation of the globe into the maxillary sinus and briefly discusses the indications of surgery and recovery for orbital floor fractures in general. Complete herniation of the globe through an orbital blow-out fracture is uncommon. However, the current case illustrates...

traumatic dislocation of the globe into the maxillary sinus

purpose: to report a case of enophthalmos secondary to complete globe dislocation into the maxillary sinus due to orbital fracture. patient and findings: an 18-year-old man was referred to labafinejad hospital, one week after a car accident. at initial examination, the globe was not seen within the right orbit. a large floor fracture and globe luxation into the right maxillary sinus were confir...

Traumatic subluxation of the globe into the maxillary sinus.

We report a case of complete traumatic subluxation of the globe into the maxillary sinus as documented by CT. The cornea sustained a mild epithelial abrasion but the globe was otherwise intact without signs of trauma.

Treatment of traumatic globe dislocated completely into the maxillary sinus.

Management of a severe cranio-orbito-facial trauma with a dislocation of the globe into the maxillary sinus.

We report two cases of severe cranio-orbito-facial trauma associated with a dislocation of the globe into the maxillary sinus. Simultaneous surgical repositioning the globe in the orbit and reconstruction of the orbital floor defect with an autogenous bone was performed in the first case. Postoperatively, the globe was in a normal position with a moderately reduced motility. The patient's visua...
