Floor of right orbit.
A blowout fracture is a break in the floor or inner wall of the orbit or eye socket.
It is estimated that about 10 of all facial fractures are isolated orbital wall fractures the majority of these being the orbital floor and that 30 40 of all facial fractures involve the orbit.
Maxilla zygomatic bone and palatine bone.
Bruising and limited eye movements secondary to swelling are common clinical presentations top.
An example of a patient presenting with a right orbital floor blowout fracture.
The orbital surface of the maxilla makes up most of it while small portions of the zygomatic and palatine bones make up the rest.
The medial wall is formed primarily by the orbital plate of ethmoid as well as contributions from the frontal process of maxilla the lacrimal bone and a small part of the body of the sphenoid.
Getting hit with a baseball or a fist often causes a blowout fracture.
This is a fracture of the paper thin floor of the eye socket with the bony rim surrounding the eye remaining intact.
It is formed by three bones.
This showed an additional finding of an impacted tooth in the floor of the right orbit.
Fractures of the orbital floor are common.
The most important landmark of the floor is the inferior orbital.
Orbital floor fractures may result when a blunt object which is of equal or greater diameter than the orbital aperture strikes the eye.
A biopsy of the lesion returned with the diagnosis of maxillary sinus dentigerous cyst.
There was also the previously diagnosed impacted tooth in the floor of the maxillary sinus.
The anatomy of the orbital floor predisposes it to fracture.
The globe usually does not rupture and the resultant force is transmitted throughout the orbit causing a fracture of the orbital floor.
Orbital blowout fracture or indirect orbital floor fracture.
The cyst lining had proliferated to fill up the entire sinus cavity.
Ct scan demonstrates common findings of a blow out fracture with evidence of a depressed right orbital floor bottom.
The floor or inferior wall separates the orbit and the maxillary sinus.

A crack in the very thin bone that makes up these walls can pinch muscles and other structures around the eye keeping the eyeball from moving properly.
The floor of the eye socket ruptures or cracks resulting in a small hole in the eye socket s floor which can trap some parts of the eye muscles and its surrounding.
