Abstract
The authors have encountered two patients who had complete traumatic eyeball extrusion by trauma with different mechanism. One was a 2-year-old child who fell down from a baby stroller and had the left eyeball extrusion without any trauma to the body except eye. The other was 29-year-old man whose right orbit was pierced by a spit and had right eyeball extrusion too. After the authors reposed traumatic complete eyeball extrusion by Kronlein operation, lateral canthotomy, and antholysis, the authors obtained excellent cosmetic results. Especially, these are very rare cases of the pure eye ball extrusion without another trauma of the body. Therefore, the authors report the experience of the operative treatment of these rare cases.
Key Words: Eyeball extrusion;Kronlein operation;Lateral canthotomy and cantholysis
