The number of patients with fractures of the bony orbit has recently increased because of increasing accidents, expecially car accidents. Due to the good cooperation of maxillofacial surgeons and ophthalmoligists the latter are asked for consultation in the first days after the accident. Therefore the possibility exists to diagnose rather often a blow-out fracture even without X-ray examination. The methods of primary and secondary management are enumerated.

Background: Guidelines advocate pulmonary function testing (PFT) in preoperative evaluation before lung resection. Although forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLCO) are recommended, they are often poor predictors of complications.
Objectives: Determine if PFT testing results other than FEV1 and DLCO are associated with post-operative complications.
