Surgical correction of grade III hypertelorism

چکیده
Orbital hypertelorism is an increased distance between the bony orbits and can be caused by frontonasal malformations, craniofacial clefts, frontoethmoidal encephaloceles, glial tumors or dermoid cysts of the root of the nose, and various syndromic or chromosomal disorders. We report a series of 7 cases of hypertelorism that were treated in our hospital. The underlying causes in our series were craniofacial clefts 0 to 14 (4 cases), craniofacial clefts 1 to 12 (1 case), and frontonasal encephalocele (2 cases), all congenital. Surgical techniques used to correct the deformity were box osteotomy and medial wall osteotomy with or without calvarial and rib grafts. A few of our cases were reoperations with specific challenges.
