Table 1: Main features of 31 patients enrolled in the study. Legend: D: diplopia; E: enophthalmos; EML: eye motility limitation; A: Group A patient; B: Group B patient. Group A: The mean age of the patients was 43.5 (interquartile: 19-80), and the M:F sex ratio was 1.8:1. The most affected side was the left side (8/14, 57.1%). The most frequent causes of trauma were car accidents and falling (both 4/14, 28.5%), followed by motorcycle accidents (3/14, 21.4%) and sport accidents (2/14, 14.2%). Only one case of fracture due to fighting was recorded. Diplopia was the most referred symptom among cases (10/14, 71.4%), followed by the clinical evidence of enophtalmos (9/14, 64.25%). Eye movement limitation was observed in four cases (28.5%). A combination of diplopia and enophtalmos was recorded in five cases (35.7%). Only one patient experienced all three findings. In the postoperative stage, only two cases of diplopia were referred at the one month control, while no enophthalmos and eye motility limitations were recorded during the postoperative follow-up period. Regarding the surgery, the average operative time was 45 min (range: 40-65). Group B: The mean age of the patients was 50 (interquartile: 18-80), and the M:F sex ratio was 1.125:1. The most affected side was the left side (9/17, 52.9%). The most frequent cause of trauma was car accident (7/17, 41.1%), followed by falling (4/17, 23.5%) and fighting (3/17, 17.6%). Only two cases by sport accident and one by motorcycle accident were recorded. Enophtalmos was the most observed clinical finding (13/17, 76.4%), followed by diplopia (11/17, 64.7%) and eye movement limitation (4/17, 23.5%). In eight cases, diplopia was associated with enophtalmos (8/17, 47%). Only one patient experienced all three findings. In the postoperative phase, only two cases of diplopia were referred at the one month control, while no enophthalmos and eye motility limitations were recorded during the postoperative follow-up period.
