RESUMO
ABSTRACT: Fractures involving the orbital floor such as blow-out fractures may cause damage to the infraorbital nerve (ION). The integrity and course of the nerve should be evaluated preoperatively in order to prevent from such nerve injuries. The anatomy of the ION can show variations in significant number of patients, which should be taken into account in treatment planning. In this report, the authors present a patient with an isolated fracture of the orbital floor, who had abnormal anatomy of his both IONs. Our treatment approach for this patient is presented along with relevant literature findings.
