TY - JOUR PY - 2023// TI - An uncommon case of high-pressure paint gun injury to the orbit with multimodality evaluation and literature review JO - Emergency radiology A1 - Wang, Wen A1 - Elsherif, Sherif A1 - Abdulhalim, Ashraf A1 - Fredericks, Thomas A1 - Kumar, Sindhu A1 - Rao, Dinesh SP - ePub EP - ePub VL - ePub IS - ePub N2 - High-pressure paint injection injury to the orbit is a rare type of orbital trauma. We present an unfortunate case of high-pressure paint injury to the right orbit of a young patient. High-pressure injection injury presents with a unique injury mechanism and resultant deep tissue damage. The superficial appearance of the entry site injury is deceiving; therefore, a thorough evaluation is necessary. Debridement is usually required if foreign body material is present. Antibiotics and steroids are commonly used in such cases.
