  2. Orbital blowout fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_blowout_fracture

    An orbital blowout fracture is a traumatic deformity of the orbital floor or medial wall that typically results from the impact of a blunt object larger than the orbital aperture, or eye socket. [1] Most commonly this results in a herniation of orbital contents through the orbital fractures. [ 1 ]

  3. Blepharoplasty - Wikipedia

    Incision lines for blepharoplasty. The thorough pre-operative medical and surgical histories, and the physical examination of the patient's periorbital area (eyebrow-to-cheek-to-nose), determine if the patient can safely undergo a blepharoplasty procedure to feasibly resolve (correct or modify, or both) the functional and aesthetic indications presented by the patient.

    The zygomaticomaxillary complex fracture, also known as a quadripod fracture, quadramalar fracture, and formerly referred to as a tripod fracture or trimalar fracture, has four components, three of which are directly related to connections between the zygoma and the face, and the fourth being the orbital floor.

  6. Orbit (anatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbit_(anatomy)

    The floor (inferior wall) is formed by the orbital surface of maxilla, the orbital surface of zygomatic bone and the minute orbital process of palatine bone. Medially, near the orbital margin, is located the groove for nasolacrimal duct. Near the middle of the floor, located infraorbital groove, which leads to the infraorbital foramen.

  7. Silent sinus syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silent_sinus_syndrome

    Silent sinus syndrome most often affects the maxillary sinus, usually with a collapse of the orbital floor. It may also affect the frontal sinus or the ethmoid sinus. When the maxillary sinus is involved, the inferior oblique muscle may be damaged. [1] The cause of silent sinus syndrome is not well understood.

  8. Caldwell-Luc surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caldwell-Luc_surgery

    The approach is mainly from the anterior wall of the maxilla bone. It was introduced by George Caldwell (1893)and Henry Luc (1897). The maxillary sinus is entered from two separate openings, one in the canine fossa to gain access to the antrum and other in the naso antral wall for drainage.

  9. Orbital part of frontal bone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_part_of_frontal_bone

    The inferior surface of each orbital plate is smooth and concave, and presents, laterally, under cover of the zygomatic process, a shallow depression, the lacrimal fossa, for the lacrimal gland; near the nasal part is a depression, the fovea trochlearis, or occasionally a small trochlear spine, for the attachment of the cartilaginous pulley of the obliquus oculi superior.
