    Abstract:
    Presentation of two cases of open orbital roof fracture with destruction of all the orbital roof extending from the fronto-maxillo region to the spina orbitalis. After a first emergency neurosurgical treatment, a cast of the excised soiled bone fragment was taken and identical replica was made from methylmethacrylate. In a second surgical procedure, the resine mould was set in place by endocranicl approach, and was fastened firmly to the surrounding bone with wire sutures. In such types of defects cranioplasty and orbitoplasty are mandatory.
