ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To report adult patients with an orbital trapdoor fracture with extraocular muscle entrapment.METHODS:
We retrospectively reviewed 566 adult patients (>18 years) with a pure orbital fracture who were referred to us from January 2016 to May 2023. The following data were collected age, sex, affected side, causes of injury, concomitant ocular injury and nasal bone fracture, presence or absence of oculocardiac reflex and infraorbital nerve hypesthesia, period from injury to surgery, follow-up period, and pre- and postoperative limitation of extraocular muscle motility and fields of a binocular single vision.RESULTS:
We found 5 patients (0.9%) with an orbital trapdoor fracture with extraocular muscle entrapment (age range, 19-47 years; all males; 2 right and 3 left). Causes of injury included performing a bench press, fall, assault, boxing, and bicycle accident. Entrapment of the inferior and medial recti muscles was seen in 2 and 3 patients, respectively. None of the patients had any sign of oculocardiac reflex. After surgical reduction, the field of binocular single vision became normal in 3 patients and was incompletely recovered in 2 patients, in whom consultation with us was delayed.CONCLUSION:
Adults with extraocular muscle entrapment may not present with an oculocardiac reflex. Urgent release of an entrapped muscle is, however, still recommended to avoid permanent limitation of extraocular muscle motility.
