Correction of Orbital Wall Fracture Close to the Optic Canal Using Computer-Assisted Navigation Surgery

Abstract

We used a navigation system to perform accurate and safe surgery in patients with extensive orbital wall fracture, including around the optic canal. By using the functions to visualize the locations indicated by the pointer, we were able to perform successful dissections and implantations in areas adjacent to the optic canal. The good outcomes obtained here provide evidence that surgical correction of the orbital wall using a navigation system is useful in cases of deep, extensive orbital wall fracture.
