title: [Diplopia, enophthalmos and motility disorders in isolated orbital floor fractures].
abstract: In cases of pure blow-out fracture with unequivocal clinical symptoms (limitation of movement of the globe, dislocation and/or enophthalmos) and confirmed X-ray findings, early surgery is the treatment of choice. In cases where the clinical findings are less pronounced, a "wait-and-see" policy, keeping the patient under observation, seems appropriate for the sake of avoiding surgical trauma. Coronal computerized tomography offers advantages in cases where the diagnosis is questionable.
