[Isolated fractures of the medial orbital wall, surgical indications in 5 cases].
Isolated fractures of the medial orbital wall are always blowout fractures. They are usually diagnosed when horizontal diplopia occurs (lateral movements of the globe and Lancaster test). If the medial rectus muscle is encapsulated (forced ductions and CT-scan), the area of restriction has to be explored surgically.
