Treatment of blowout fracture is the repositioning of orbital contents and the reconstruction of the orbital floor. The complete repositioning of orbital contents between fractured bone fragments is not so easy. It is rather difficult, especially when the fracture lies in a deep area of the orbital floor and spreads out wide, even under the operation ...
