BACKGROUND

  • Pediatric facial fractures are common
  • Periorbital fractures are the third most common

facial fracture1

  • Established algorithms for adult orbital floor

fracture management

  • Management of pediatric floor fractures is

controversial

PURPOSE

  • Aims:

– Determine defect/orbit width ratio that is associated with the development enophthalmos – Predict long-term visual outcomes in children who present with visual disturbances

METHODS

  • Retrospective review, 1991-2012
  • 72 Children with isolated orbital floor fractures
  • 76 Fractures
  • Chart and radiographic review

– Panoramic radiographs (66%) – Computed tomography (34%)

CONCLUSIONS

  • Surgical correction of floor defects eliminates

enophthalmos

  • However, enophthalmos, either acute or delayed,

can potentially resolve without surgery

  • Surgery does not improve visual acuity in patients

presenting with decreased vision

  • A definite defect/orbital width ratio for surgical

intervention remains to be determined
