Abstract:
Seemingly trivial adnexal injuries may be associated with extensive injuries to the globe, orbit, and brain. A meticulous ophthalmologic examination and orbital and brain computed tomography (CT) scans (axial and coronal views) are essential for complete evaluation of these patients. The ophthalmologist must remain an active participant in the management of these patients to preserve the integrity of the globe.
