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.
