Abstract
Orbital fractures in the pediatric population are rare. A trapdoor fracture is a special anatomic type of orbital fracture associated with herniation of orbital contents and entrapment of extraocular muscles entrapment with no signs of any soft tissue trauma. A delay in diagnosis can lead to a life-threatening condition known as oculocardiac reflex, characterized by nausea, vomiting, bradycardia, and syncope. Many authors recommend early surgical intervention, but some patients may delay for various reasons. We hereby represent three cases of orbital fracture to prevent long-term persistent diplopia. Depending on the case scenario, two cases were operated on in which an autogenous iliac cortical graft was placed in one patient to prevent postoperative herniation of orbital content, and in one patient, only release of entrapped muscles was done. One patient was managed conservatively with a regular follow-up visit.
