Together with the lamina papyracea of the ethmoid bone, they form the medial wall. Medially, the maxillary and the lacrimal bone form the lacrimal fossa.

The frontal, ethmoidal, sphenoid, zygomatic, and lacrimal bones form the bony structures of the orbit. Knowledge of anatomy is mandatory when dealing with patients presenting with trauma to the orbit. Orbital fractures have a distinct trauma mechanism and are complex due to the complex anatomy of the bony and soft tissue structures involved. Summarize the role of improving coordination among the interprofessional team to streamline diagnosis and treatment for patients with orbital floor fracture.įractures of the orbital floor and the medial orbital wall (blowout fractures) are common midface injuries.Describe the treatment and management of orbital floor fractures, including potential complications after initial treatment or surgery.Review the procedure for a proper history and physical examination to address a potential orbital floor fracture, including potential differentials.Outline the osseous anatomy of the orbit of the eye.

This activity reviews the etiology, presentation, evaluation, and management of fractures of the orbital floor and reviews the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating, diagnosing, and managing the condition. Fractures of the orbital floor and the medial orbital wall (blowout fractures) are common midface injuries.
