ABSTRACT
The present work aims to report 2 clinical cases of the use of current technologies for the treatment of orbital fractures. The cases are of patients who were victims of car accidents and who developed a blow-out orbital fracture. Clinically, they presented periorbital ecchymosis, blepharoedema, enophthalmos, and ophthalmoplegia and, therefore, underwent surgical reconstructive treatment. For both cases, preoperative computed tomography and biomodel impression of the orbits were performed. The modeling of the titanium mesh covering the defect in the biomodel that would be used in the surgery was performed. In the intraoperative period of reduction and fixation of the fracture with the titanium mesh, optics were used to better visualize the posterior defect, as well as computed tomography to ensure that the entire affected area was reconstructed. Both patients were followed up in the postoperative period and evolved without clinical and functional complaints.
