Published: June 2020

White-eyed blowout fracture is often found in pure orbital floor blowout fracture among pediatric patients. Unlike common orbital blowout fractures with apparent clinical signs, the diagnosis of white-eyed orbital blowout fractures is difficult because of minimal soft-tissue signs. This report describes an early missed-out diagnosis of a white-eyed blowout fracture in a 7-year-old child, due to negligible soft-tissue manifestation.

Introduction: To report 5 cases of concomitant traumatic macular hole (TMH) and orbital fracture, and discuss its incidence.

Methods: This was a retrospective, observational study including all patients with orbital fracture who were referred to us from May 2013 to December 2023. Axial and coronal orbital computed tomographic images with bone and soft tissue window algorithms and optical coherence tomographic images were obtained from all patients.

Declining Blowout Fracture Cases and Rising Costs in South Korea (2010-2023).

J Craniofac Surg

December 2024

Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital, College of Medicine, Ewha Womans University, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

Objective: Blowout fractures are a significant component of maxillofacial trauma care, but their incidence appears to be declining in South Korea. This study aims to investigate the trends in blowout fracture cases from 2010 to 2023 and assess the implications for plastic and reconstructive surgery, as well as the financial burden on patients.

Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted using data from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service in South Korea.

Introduction And Aims: Arterial pseudoaneurysm is a rare yet potentially life-threatening complication that can arise as a late sequelae of penetrating injuries or orthopaedic procedures. We aim at sharing our institutional experience of managing 18 cases of lower limb arterial pseudoaneurysms in orthopaedic practice and to provide technical tips for emergency management of severe bleeding. A comprehensive literature review resulting from fractures and orthopaedic surgeries is also presented.

Article Synopsis
  • - This study looked at how well patients’ bones realigned after surgery for orbital blowout fractures, using follow-up CT scans to measure outcomes at least four months post-surgery.
  • - A total of 48 patients were analyzed, and results showed that most had complete bony reduction except those with complications, where significant issues arose with bony coverage.
  • - The findings indicated that younger patients had better outcomes with complete bony coverage, while partial or no coverage was more common in those experiencing complications.

Purpose: To analyze the correlation between orbital computed tomography (CT) scan measurements including the fracture area (FA), the fracture location, the soft-tissue herniation volume (HV), the fractured orbital volume ratio (OVR) to the normal orbit, and the clinical enophthalmos in acute isolated orbital floor fractures.

Methods: We enrolled 100 patients with acute isolated unilateral orbital floor fractures from May 2017 to January 2021. Based on the CT scan findings, we measured the FA, HV, OVR, and fracture site.
