Abstract:
In this review, a number of current issues on the management of orbital trauma are discussed including the indications for orbital exploration in zygomatic complex fractures, the utility of transantral endoscopy in orbital trauma surgery, and preferred implant materials in orbital reconstruction. We emphasize the need for a classification system to define some of the clinical terms used in describing orbital trauma, to improve communication between clinical services, and to standardize the clinical literature on orbital trauma.
