Abstract

Background: Outcome of treatment of orbital floor defects with titanium mesh in zygomatic complex fractures. Eye trauma results in significant aesthetic and functional problems. Rehabilitation necessitates a grasp of the orbit's altered structure and function, as well as the materials and procedures used in its restoration.

Study design: Descriptive case series

Study duration: 1 year.22 December 2018 to 21 December 2019.

Study place: Allama Iqbal Teaching Hospital, Kh. Muhammad Safdar Medical College, Sialkot

The mean average age of the male patients was 30.02 years + 10.26 and the mean average age of the female patients was 29.90 years + 10.53. In our study 82.8% were males and 17.8 were females.

Conclusion: The conclusion of study is  titanium mesh  isa better treatment option in management of complex orbito-zygomatico complex fractures, Diplopia is initially present but eventually resolve within 3 month.
