[Primary, definitive treatment of the nasoethmoidorbital-midface-frontobasal injuries in the maxillofacial practice].

Nasoethmoid-orbital (NEO) fractures are typically resulted by a drastic, forceful blow to the central aspect of the head and nose, associated injuries to adjacent structures occur and involve the midface, anterior cranial fossa and the eye. Dislocated bony parts of the nose may be impacted into the intraorbital region and lead to severe complications: cerebrospinal fluid leak, optic nerve lesion, anosmy, telecanthus and diplopy. In the complex management of the craniofacial lesions, a cooperative team-work of maxillofacial surgeon, neurosurgeon, otolaryngologist and ophthalmologist is required.
