Abstract

The post traumatic enophthalmos caused by the blow out and malar bone fractures is subject to an early surgical intervention. In the early treatment, the post traumatic enophthalmos can be corrected with repositioning the orbital soft tissue and repairing the orbital walls. Cases whose post traumatic enophthalmos had been poorly corrected or cases with long-standing enophthalmos will necessitate to decrease the orbital volume itself, because the orbital content is decreased. To decrease the orbital volume, graft implanting such as an allo-plastic material or an autogenous iliac bone plate to the lateral part of the orbit in combination with orbital floor plasty allow appropriate improvement of the post traumatic enophthalmos and also provide safe method of choice with less surgical sequelae.
