Purpose:
To present our results of orbital fracture treatment.
Material And Methods:
There were 28 patients with orbital fracture hospitalized at Ophthalmology Department of Medical University in Gdańsk during last 5 years. Most of them had a blow-out fracture type. We reconstructed it using artificial materials (cranioplast). It was shaped according to the defect of the bone. Fracture of zygomatico-frontalis and zygomatico-maxillaris suture was fixed by bone sutures. The same method was used to treat gaps in medial and superior wall of the orbit.
Results And Conclusions:
We took into consideration the period of time between the trauma and surgical procedure. Full recovery (lack of diplopia) was achieved in 10 cases which underwent operation in less then 14 days after trauma and only in 2 cases in the group where patients were operated later than 14 days after accident.
