A head injury caused a man's eye socket fracture, leading to frontal lobe herniation. Neurosurgery successfully repaired the orbital defect, resulting in complete recovery.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Ophthalmology
  • Traumatic Brain Injury

Background:

  • Orbital roof fractures are rare but serious injuries.
  • Head trauma can lead to complex craniofacial and neurological complications.

Observation:

  • A 39-year-old male presented with progressive pulsatile proptosis after head trauma.
  • Computed tomography revealed an isolated blow-in orbital roof fracture.
  • Left frontal lobe herniation into the orbit was identified.

Findings:

  • The orbital roof defect allowed brain tissue to herniate into the eye socket.
  • Surgical repair of the orbital defect was successfully performed.

Implications:

  • Prompt neurosurgical intervention is crucial for managing orbital roof fractures with brain herniation.
