TY - JOUR PY - 1990// TI - Isolated blow-in fracture of the lateral orbit causing globe rupture JO - Ophthalmic plastic and reconstructive surgery A1 - Gruss, J. S. A1 - Hurwitz, J. J. SP - 221 EP - 224 VL - 6 IS - 3 N2 - A blow-in fracture is a less common consequence of orbital trauma. Fragments of orbital bone may increase the orbital pressure, causing direct or indirect damage to the globe. This paper describes a blow-in fracture where a bone fragment perforated the globe causing globe disorganization and necessitating enucleation.
