The topographic and symptomatic sequelae at 6 months were described. METHODS: Patients with orbital floor or ZMC fracture associated with initial ION injury, between November 2018 and April 2020 and clinically reassessed 6 months after trauma were included. Detailed neurological symptomatology was assessed by a questionnaire. RESULTS: A total of 81 patients were included. Forty-two patients (51.8%) showed persistent neurological signs, i.e., isolated hypoesthesia in 28 patients (66.7%), isolated pain in 10 patients (23.8%) and both in 5 patients (9.5%). The most affected area was the cheek (42.8%). Thirty-eight patients (46.9%) presented associated signs, which were intermittent in 78.9% of cases. A pronounced improvement happened for 65.1% of patients and 76.7% were not or only slightly hindered in their daily activities. There were significantly more neurologic symptoms at 6 months in the surgical group than in the observational group and more in the ZMC fracture group than in the orbital floor fracture group. CONCLUSIONS: Neurological symptomatology was more frequent in patients treated surgically. Our results suggest the interest of a surgical decompression when orbital or ZMC fracture is associated with nerve damage but more data are needed. Neurological injury requires a careful initial clinical evaluation and regular follow-up to help patients coping, painful symptoms may benefit from specialized care.Lire moins >
