Abstract

A naso-orbito-ethmoid(NOE) fracture is very complex diagnostically and therapeutically. The diagnosis of this fractures is usually made by physical findings aided by a CT scan. The primary treatment of NOE fracture must be directed toward the reconstruction of medial canthal ligament and bony skeleton. We prefer to correct lacrimal system abnormalities secondarily A 32-year old male patient visited emergency room of our hospital with NOE fracture. After emergency treatment and consultation with neurosurgery and ophthalmology, we treated this patient by performing reconstruction of medial canthal ligament, bone graft of media orbital rim blowout fracture, and dorsal nasal cantilever bone graft with calvarial bone. The authors present a case report with literature review.
