A 20-year-old man was seen in the Emergency Department in the early hours of the morning after having been assaulted outside a nightclub. The patient was alert and oriented, but his right cheek and orbit were badly swollen.
Radiography of the facial bones was carried out (Figs. 1–4).
What are these radiographic views? What is the diagnosis?
For the diagnosis and a discussion see page 309.
