Distichiasis following transconjunctival approach to the inferior orbital rim and orbital floor

Abstract: a b s t r a c tZygoma fractures are often associated with orbital floor fractures, which can be approached through a transconjunctival or transcutaneous incision. The transconjunctival approach has gained popularity over the transcutaneous one for its overall lower complication rate. We describe a patient with a zygoma fracture where the inferior orbital rim and orbital floor were exposed, reduced and fixated through a transconjunctival incision. Postoperatively, the patient developed a row of eyelashes poster… Show more

The transconjunctival approach has gained popularity over the transcutaneous approaches because of its inconspicuous scar and decreased risk of postoperative ectropion and scleral show (Salhi and Cordoba, 2015).…”
