AI Article Synopsis
- Thirty patients with orbital apex fractures were evaluated using clinical assessments and x-rays to determine the nature and severity of their injuries.
- The study identified specific types of facial skull fractures that were complicated by the patients' overall condition and emphasized the importance of thorough x-ray examinations.
- A modified panoramic sonography technique was utilized in conjunction with a specialized program on the Sonark device, aiding in the evaluation of the bone structures around the orbital apex.
Article Abstract
Thirty patients with fractures of the apex of the orbit were examined by clinical and x-ray methods. The types of fractures of facial skull bones were specified, which were aggravated by the patients state, as was the type of injuries to osseous structures participating in the formation of the orbital apex. A purposeful x-ray examination of the orbital apex in patients with injuries to facial bones helps to rule out undervaluation of the severity of injury which can be assessed only on the basis of clinical signs. Use of a modified panoramic sonography for examination of the apex of the orbit in accordance with the standard program of Sonark device for the examination of orbital nerve canals helps assess the nature of injuries to bone structures in this area.
