Abstract

|
As the increase of the incidence of blow out fracture, plastic surgeons encounter the case of the traumatic enophtahlmos more frequently than before.
Enophtalmos is the second major complication of blow out fracture and the deformity becomes the more complex in orbital fracture associated with fractures of adjacent bones. Surgical of enophthalmos is more difficult in late correction due to malunion of the fracture and fibrosis of the injured orbital structure. We experienced the case of the traumatic enophthalmos. By traffic accident, frontal bone fracture and blow out fracture was developed and at first, he received the reconstruction of the superior orbital rim by using the cartilage autograft and repair of the blow out fracture by implantation of silastic sheet. However enophthalmos was under corrected. Secondarily, he received the correction of the enophthalmos by subperiosteal implantation of silastic beads.
