MDCT FINDINGS
![Page 2: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
INTRODUCTION
• Traumatic oculo orbital injury occurs frequently, whether isolated or associated with craniofacial lesion.
• Radiological evaluation is often necessary to appropriately manage the trauma-related vision loss and oculo motor disturbance.
![Page 3: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
INTRODUCTION
• Helical CT is the optimal imaging technique for
displaying injuries of the orbit and its contents for
determining their severity and for helping surgeon to
choose the best course of treatment.
• The helical CT has the best sensitivity for bone lesions
and allows the search for two major emergency :
• transfixing wound of eyeball.
• the intraocular foreign body.

OBJECTIVES
• The purpose of this work is
• to illustrate the various aspects of imaging
lesions in oculo-orbital trauma,
• To stress the value of multidetector spiral CT in
the diagnosis and assessment of lesions.

MATERIELS AND METHODS
• We retrospectively reviewed the CT scans of all patients
admitted to our emergency from January 2010 to
December 2011 who underwent a GE 64 multi slices CT
for cranial and facial trauma, .
• A retro-reconstruction on the Orbites; was performed
when a routine CT of the head showed periorbital soft
tissue edema and/or facial bone fractures in 40 patients.

IMAGING PROTOCOL
• Helical acquisition in the axial plane without contrast injection using the following parameters:
• In case of suspected vascular trauma such as carotido cavernous fistula or arterial dissection, additional CT angiography may be also performed.
• Multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) are displayed in both bone and soft tissue setting using axial,coronal and oblique parasagittal planes along the optic nerve axis

INTERPRETATION PROCESS
• Note intracranial injury.• Look for foreign body.• Evaluate the bony orbit fractures.• Note any herniation of orbital contents.• Evaluate the anterior chamber.• Evaluate the position of the lens.• Evaluate the posterior segment of the globe.• Look for bleeding or foreign bodies.• Evaluate the ophthalmic veins and optic nerve
complex
![Page 10: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
NEUROLOGICAL AND INTRACRANIAL INJURY
• During the initial evaluation of orbital trauma, one must always seek intracranial lesions which may be life-threatening:
• intracranial hemorrhage
• pneumo-encephaly
• hydrocephalus
• parenchyma edema
• intracranial hypertension
![Page 11: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
OPEN-GLOBE INJURIES• CT findings
suggestive of an open-globe injury include • a change in globe
contour, • an obvious loss of
volume, • the “flat tire” sign, • scleral discontinuity, • intraocular air, • intraocular foreign
bodies
Unenhanced axial CT scan shows the flat tire sign, which indicates an open-globe injury.
Unenhanced axial CT scan shows deformity of the globe
![Page 12: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
INTRA-ORBITAL FOREIGN BODIES
• a wood or organic foreign body is suspected if the low-attenuation collection seen on CT images
displays a geometric margin.
![Page 13: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
OCULAR DETACHMENTS
• Collections of subretinal fluid assume a characteristic V-shaped configuration, with the apex at the optic disk and the extremities at the ora serrata
• Hemorrhagic choroidal detachment may occur.
bilateral retinal hemorrhage.posttraumatic, hemorrhagic
choroidal detachment.
![Page 14: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
INJURIES TO THE LENS
• After a complete disruption, the lens may dislocate posteriorly or, less commonly, anteriorly.
Unenhanced axial CT scan: a partially dislocated lens.
![Page 15: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
INTRAORBITAL HEMATOMA
• It should be reported because there is a risk of compression of the globe leading to ocular hypertension and vascular and nerve compression.
![Page 16: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
INTRAORBITAL EMPHYSEMA
• Occurs especially when bone fracture framework allows the intrusion of air from the para-nasal sinuses into the orbit
• It can be responsable of intra-orbital hypertension
![Page 17: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
ORBITAL BONE FRACTURE
MEDIAL WALL FRACTURE:• Area of maximum orbital bone fragility.• The incarceration of the medial rectus and superior oblique is rarely
fixed.
![Page 18: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
ORBITAL BONE FRACTURE
ORBITAL FLOOR FRACTURE:• The orbital floor fracture is the second site after the orbital plate of the
ethmoid.• There is a risk of soft tissue herniation and muscle entrapment.
![Page 19: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
ORBITAL BONE FRACTURE
ORBITAL ROOF FRACTURE:• Third area potentially injured.• It could be associated with osteomeningeal disruption and
intracranial injury.
![Page 20: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
ORBITAL BONE FRACTURE
LATERAL WALL FRACTURE:• Strongest part of the bony frame, it can still be fractured,
often in combination with other bone lesions.
![Page 21: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
DISCUSSION
• Before any interpretation of orbital injuries,
lesions of the central nervous system
compromising vital prognosis have to be
identified.
• Helical CT is the technique of choice for
displaying bone fragmentation, the degree of
dislocation and rotation and skull base
involvement.
![Page 22: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
ORBITAL BONE INJURY
• An imaging study should provide a detailed description
of their spatial relationships to the oculomotor muscles
and optic nerve
• In orbital « blow out » fractures, orbital contents
herniate into the maxilla sinuses, with the result that
the inferior rectus may become trapped at the fracture
site.
![Page 23: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
ORBITAL BONE INJURY
• The thinner bones of the orbit are involved, including the orbital plates of the ethmoid and orbital floor.
• Such lesions are especially at high risk of • muscle impingement, • muscle entrapment • intra orbital emphysema
![Page 24: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
ORBITAL BONE INJURY
• Fractures of the roof and lateral walls of orbit, which are more resistant, are observed in craniofacial trauma as LEFORT III.
• Intra orbital bone fragments are often associated and may cause • compressive hematoma,
• emphysema,
• muscle impingement
• optic nerve compression.
![Page 25: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
EXTRA OCULAR AND INTRA ORBITAL INJURY
• It involves the association with orbital bone injury.
• orbital muscles,
• fat
• optic nerve
• Helical CT with coronal reconstructions may show
muscle entrapment through a small orbital wall
disruption
![Page 26: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
EXTRA OCULAR AND INTRA ORBITAL INJURY
• The must common findings of diminished muscle
mobility are:
Muscle impingement by fracture fragments.
Intra conal emphysema
Muscle entrapment
Fat herniation
![Page 27: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
EXTRA OCULAR AND INTRA ORBITAL INJURY
• CT can determine whether an intraorbital foreign
body is present and if so its nature and position
• Helical CT may also provide indirect evidence of
optic nerve contusion when a fracture of of the
optic foramen is detected
![Page 28: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
OCULAR INJURY
• The sensitivity of helical CT in detecting 0.5mm metallic
bodies on 3mm CT images can reach 100%.
• If foreign body is not visible, indirect signs on CT may
be helpful such as:Intra ocular air.
Scleral deformity.
Volume loss of the globe.
Lens absence.
![Page 29: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• Intraocular hemorrhage is common and may
appear as hyperdensity of the vitreous and
choroidal hematoma.
• The position of lens has to be comparatively
studied.
• Subluxation and dislocation are easily
discernable.
![Page 30: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
THE CHECKLIST
1. Evaluate the bony orbit for fractures, and note any herniations of orbital contents. Pay particular attention to the orbital apex, where even a tiny fracture may be an indication for emergent surgery.
2. Evaluate the anterior chamber.
Increased attenuation suggests a hyphema.
Decreased depth suggests either a corneal laceration or anterior
subluxation of the lens.
Increased depth is associated with open-globe injuries.
3. Evaluate the position of the lens. Remember that the lens may be displaced, either anteriorly or posteriorly, and that it may be either completely or partially dislocated.
![Page 31: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
THE CHECKLIST
4. Evaluate the posterior segment of the globe. Look for bleeds or abnormal fluid collections. Try to localize the fluid collections, remembering the characteristic shape of fluid collections in a retinal or choroidal detachment. Also, evaluate for radiopaque or radiolucent foreign bodies. Remember that wooden foreign bodies can mimic air on CT scans.
5. Evaluate the ophthalmic veins and the optic nerve complex. If the ophthalmic veins are dilated, look for other signs of carotid cavernous fistula. The optic nerve may be transected, particularly in penetrating traumas. In blunt traumas, the key area to evaluate is the orbital apex.
![Page 32: OCULO ORBITAL TRAUMA: MDCT FINDINGS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56814417550346895db0b642/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
CONCLUSION
• The overwhelming majority of patients with
decreased visual acuity or reduced extra ocular
muscle motility consequent to trauma had
abnormalities demonstrated by orbital CT. Hence,
CT examinations should play a major role in the
evaluation of the intra orbital contents in patients
with orbital trauma.
