[Eighteen cases of plerosising intra-orbital wall blow-out fracture with the nasal septal cartilage under the endoscopic transnasal].

Abstract

OBJECTIVE:

To investigate the surgical method of plerosising intra-orbital wall blow-out fracture through ethmoid sinuses under trans-nasal endoscopy with the graft of nasal septal cartilage.

METHOD:

Eighteen patients who encounter the intra-orbital wall blow-out fracture were plerosised under trans-nasal endoscopy through ethmoid sinuses. As a part of the surgical method, the nasal septal cartilage was taken as the graft. We analyzed the curative effect of the method.

RESULT:

The follow-up was from half a year to one year, all of the 18 patients met the cure standards without the graft prolapsus.

CONCLUSION:

It is a feasible surgical method to plerosis intra-orbital wall blow-out fracture under the endoscopic transnasal with the graft of nasal septal cartilage through ethmoid sinuses, which is direct-viewing,micro- trauma, well-histocompatibility and so on.
