title: Traumatic dislocation of the globe into the maxillary sinus.
abstract: The complete traumatic dislocation of the globe into the maxillary sinus is a very rare event. Due to the intense force affecting the orbit, the impact on the globe and its accompanying structures is normally very severe. A case is reported of complete dislocation of the globe into the maxillary sinus with nearly complete recovery of vision and motility.
