  • Title: [Subperiosteal hematoma of the orbit: case report].
    Author: Chaves JB, Batista MS, Piske RL, Cunha Kde A, Almeida KJ.
    Journal: Arq Bras Oftalmol; 2007; 70(4):693-7. PubMed ID: 17906768.
    Abstract:
    We describe a sixteen years old male patient that suffered a craniocerebral trauma and presented at the emergency room, with ocular pain, palpebral hematoma and left eye proptosis. Orbital computed tomography showed left subperiosteal orbital hematoma. A surgical drainage was performed. Subperiosteal hematoma of the orbit is a rare cause of proptosis; its early diagnosis must be made in order to avoid possible complications.
