EXPERIENCE IN THE TREATMENT OF ORBITAL COMPLICATIONS OF MAXILLECTOMY

Objective: on the example of clinical cases, determine the tactics of managing a patient when orbital complications occur. Materials and methods. There are 2 cases of observation (a girl of 8 years and a boy of 10 years). During the operation of maxilotomy there was a complication - damage of the lower wall of the orbit with subsequent impairment of the mobility of the eye and the development of enophthalmos. Patients underwent standard ophthalmological examination, computed tomography was performed. Operative treatment was performed - orbitotomy, plasticity of the bottom of the orbit. One patient subsequently had repeated interventions to correct strabismus. Results. Enophthalmos, strabismus were eliminated in both cases. Conclusion. Timely evaluation of the clinical picture and CT scan data allows you to assess the severity of damage and determine the tactics of management (8 figs, bibliography: 4 refs).
