Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate the application of CT in the diagnosis of fracture position and the cause of diplopia after orbital trauma. Methods:The CT findings and the clinical informations of orbital fractures accompanying diplopias in 68 patients (70 orbits) were retrospectively analysed. Results: Orbital fractures in 70 orbits were diagnosed by CT. There were burst orbital floor fractures in 45 orbits ( among them orbital floor fracture combined with medial wall fracture in 15 orbits), non-burst obital floor fractures in 10, medial orbital fractures in 5, zygomatic-orbital fractures in 5, orbit roof fractures in 5. The accuracy of CT in diagnosing orbital fracture was 100 percent. In 68 cases, there were 64 patients with vertical diplopia and 4 with horizontal diplopia . Conclusion: CT can correctly locate the orbital fracture and diagnose the cause of diplopia.
