Medial orbital wall blow out fractures, by definition is a pure internal fracture confined to the orbital wall without involvement of orbital rim. Two theories have been proposed to explain how these fractures occur, the hydraulic or buckling mechanisms.
Orbital Fracture and Traumatic Injury. Orbital fractures are breaks in any of the bones surrounding the eye area (also known as the orbit or eye socket). These fractures are almost always a result of a blunt force trauma injury, whether by accident or from sports.
Unspecified fracture of facial bones, initial encounter for closed fracture. S02. 92XA is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S02.
In many cases, orbital fractures do not need to be treated with surgery. If an orbital fracture is small, your ophthalmologist may recommend placing ice packs on the area to reduce swelling and allow the eye socket to heal on its own over time. Sometimes antibiotics and decongestants are prescribed as well.
The medial orbital wall consists of four bones, the frontal process of the maxillary bone: the lacrimal bone, the orbital plate of the ethmoid bone, and the lesser wing of the sphenoid bone.
The middle bone, or wall of the eye's orbit. It is generally thicker than the roof and floor walls.
Bony walls The superior bony margin of the orbital rim, otherwise known as the orbital process, is formed by the frontal bone. The roof (superior wall) is formed primarily by the orbital plate frontal bone, and also the lesser wing of sphenoid near the apex of the orbit.
Fractures of the orbital floor and the medial orbital wall (blowout fractures) are common midface injuries. Orbital fractures have a distinct trauma mechanism and are complex due to the complex anatomy of the bony and soft tissue structures involved.
There are seven orbital bones that make up this structure: the frontal, sphenoid, zygomatic, ethmoid, lacrimal, palatine and maxilla bones. Each of these plays a role in keeping the eyeball protected. Though small, the orbital bones are quite strong to protect the eye inside the head.
The most common fractures involve the medial wall of the orbit formed by the lamina papyracea of the ethmoid bone and the floor of the orbit that separates this space from the maxillary sinus.
