Abstract

Objective To evaluate the value of routine head CT scan in diagnosing the fracture of orbital medial wall.Methods 40 cases doubted with the fracture of orbital medial wall were additionally scanned with orbital CT.Results Of 45 cases,35 cases were confirmed with fracture of orbital medial wall.The fracture signs on routine head CT included invagination of orbital medial wall,thick of medial rectus,increase in ethmoid sinus density and intra orbital gas.Conclusion Routine head CT scan can serve as diagnosing or screening the fracture of orbital medial wall.
