Objective: In order to improve the diagnosis and treatment of the complex fracture of the orbit region and adjacent cranio-maxillofacial fracture.

Methods: 73 cases with blowout fracture of the orbit and adjacent cranio-maxillofacial fracture in recent years were retrospectively analyzed and comparied with different methods of treatment. All cases had undertaken CT examinations.

Results: The positive rate of the CT examinations with blowout fracture of the orbit and adjacent cranio-maxillofacial region were 100%. Operating repositioning, rigid fixation and artificial material placement were used to treat this kind of deformities.

Conclusions: With the progress of modern photographic methods, blowout fracture of the orbit and adjacent cranio-maxillofacial fracture can be diagnosed clearly and help the operation procedure. Operations with reduction, rigid fixation and filling materials can be used to restore this kind of fracture and appearance.

Purpose: To evaluate the role of computed tomography-dacryocystography (CT-DCG) in the management of traumatic secondary acquired lacrimal duct obstruction (SALDO) and study its correlation with the intra-operative findings.

Methods: Retrospective interventional case series. Eighty-five lacrimal drainage systems (LDS) of 79 patients diagnosed with traumatic SALDO, who underwent pre-operative CT-DCG, between January 2019 and June 2023, were analyzed.

Purpose Of Review: Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a leading cause of death and disability across the world. We sought to investigate the prevalence and clinical presentation of ocular injuries in IPV.

Recent Findings: Literature review revealed 16 published studies that evaluated ocular injuries in IPV, of which the study types included 9 retrospective studies, 2 prospective, 1 review, 1 invited commentary, 2 case reports, and 1 population-based cross-sectional survey.

This study aims to evaluate and compare the usability and performance of mixed reality (MR) technology versus conventional methods for preoperative planning of patient-specific reconstruction plates for orbital fractures. A crossover study design was used to compare MR technology with conventional three-dimensional (3D) printing approaches in the planning of maxillofacial traumatology treatments. The primary focus was on user-friendliness and the accuracy of patient-specific reconstruction planning.

Introduction: Orbital fractures are common among maxillofacial injuries. The primary objective of this study was to investigate the clinical and radiographic characteristics of pure orbital blowout fractures (OBFs) and their association with post-traumatic diplopia. The secondary objective was to identify predictors of diplopia in pure OBFs.

Traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) is a rare condition resulting from damage to the optic nerve due to craniofacial trauma. It can present as direct or indirect injuries, with mechanisms ranging from mechanical disruption by fractures in direct TON to transmitted forces causing shearing and ischemia in indirect TON. These injuries often lead to significant visual impairment or complete vision loss, requiring timely diagnosis and intervention.
