title: [Trauma of periorbital soft tissue. Reconstruction with regard to functional and aesthetic aspects].
abstract: Complex midfacial trauma requires interdisciplinary management. A wide range of reconstructive procedures are needed and if necessary secondary and even tertiary interventions should be performed at the appropriate time. We present the case of a 45-year-old man who was involved in a car accident and presented with severe injuries to the periorbital soft tissue. The focus was on the reconstruction of this sensitive region with regard to functional and aesthetic aspects. In view of the severity of the injuries the final clinical status is considered to be very important. Special issues and pitfalls in the reconstruction of trauma cases and potential management are discussed.
