Transconjunctival approach to zygomatic and orbital floor fractures
The authors present their experience with transconjunctival approach to access the orbital floor, infraorbital rim and zygomatic-frontal and zygomatic temporal sutures in 40 patients with fractures in the orbital and zygomatic region. The preseptal and retroseptal approaches are described. Despite t...

Zusammenfassung: | The authors present their experience with transconjunctival approach to access the orbital floor, infraorbital rim and zygomatic-frontal and zygomatic temporal sutures in 40 patients with fractures in the orbital and zygomatic region. The preseptal and retroseptal approaches are described. Despite the complication rate of 12.5%, the esthetic results and simultaneous visualization of the infraorbital rim and lateral orbital rim supports the use of the transconjunctival approach. |
