Metallic foreign bodies in the orbit

Journal Title: Otolaryngologia Polska - Year 2013, Vol 67, Issue 1

Abstract

Authors present a case of metallic foreign bodies (part of the hammer) in apex of the orbit in a 57-year-old man. In CT scan it was localized between rectus lateral muscle and optic nerve. We remove it through transantral approach. We discuss about diagnosis and indication to transnasal and transsinusal (trough maxillary and ethmoidal sinuses) approaches to the retrobulbar part of the orbit.
