| description | Orbital emphysema is a rare condition which is described as air enterance to the orbital cavity. The trauma seems to be the most common reason, there are some reports of orbital emphysema without any trauma history. A 45-year old man presented with acute onset right orbital emphysema after nose blowing whom recalled a minor facial trauma one night ago. There was no fracture line seen in the CT scan and we were unable to determine whether the minor facial trauma or the strong nose blowing itself caused the orbital emphysema. Patient who had no visual problem and normal CT scan, conservation treatment was enough. [Cukurova Med J 2014; 39(4.000): 876-879] |
