Purpose: To describe the clinical presentation of isolated medial orbital wall fractures, the duration of symptoms and their management.
Methods: Retrospective study of 60 orbits of 60 patients over 18 years of age with isolated medial wall fractures of the orbit at the facial and trauma center of the Pitié-Salpêtrière university hospital of Paris between June 2012 and November 2015. Diplopia, enophthalmos and limitation of extraocular muscle movements were investigated.
Background: The overlapping bone flap genioplasty, described by Tessier, was developed to treat major retrognathia or long and retruded chins. For 15 years, we have used a modified version of this technique to avoid its drawbacks. The aim of this article is to describe our modification and evaluate the long-term morphologic and radiologic outcomes.

Methods: The authors retrospectively included all patients managed in the authors' department for a pure orbital floor fracture, from June 2012 to November 2013. The authors collected clinical data including diplopia and enophtalmos, at initial status and after 3-months of follow-up.

Introduction: Orbital fractures represent 30 % of children facial fractures. Nausea and vomiting are more predictive of entrapment than local trauma stigmatisms. Entrapment and diplopia are more frequent in adults.
