title: Nasoethmoidal and orbital fractures.
abstract: It is helpful to consider fractures of the orbit both in terms of their location and fracture pattern. CT scanning is an invaluable aid to the diagnosis and treatment of all orbital fractures. Early operative intervention, wide exposure, and accurate and stable fixation accompanied by immediate bone grafting provide the most successful treatment of fractures of the orbit.
