Maxilla zygomatic bone and palatine bone.
Floor of right orbit.
Ct scan demonstrates common findings of a blow out fracture with evidence of a depressed right orbital floor bottom.
Coronal ct scan soft tissue window showing right orbital floor fracture vertical elongation of right orbit reduction in size of right maxillary sinus and soft tissue swelling of the right maxillary sinus mucosa.
A fracture of the lateral maxillary sinus wall also is.
An example of a patient presenting with a right orbital floor blowout fracture.
Getting hit with a baseball or a fist often causes a blowout fracture.
There was also the previously diagnosed impacted tooth in the floor of 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.
Fractures of the orbital floor are common.
The cyst lining had proliferated to fill up the entire sinus cavity.
Bruising and limited eye movements secondary to swelling are common clinical presentations top.
The anatomy of the orbital floor predisposes it to fracture.
Orbital blowout fracture or indirect orbital floor fracture.
Orbital floor fractures may result when a blunt object which is of equal or greater diameter than the orbital aperture strikes the eye.
The most important landmark of the floor is the inferior orbital.
The globe usually does not rupture and the resultant force is transmitted throughout the orbit causing a fracture of the orbital floor.
A blowout fracture is a break in the floor or inner wall of the orbit or eye socket.
The floor or inferior wall separates the orbit and the maxillary sinus.
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 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.
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.
This showed an additional finding of an impacted tooth in the floor of the right orbit.
It is formed by three bones.
Coronal ct scan showing orbital floor fracture posterior to the globe.
The floor is separated from the lateral wall by inferior orbital fissure which connects the orbit to pterygopalatine and infratemporal fossa.
