  • Title: Surgical correction of severe strabismus and enophthalmos secondary to zygomatic arch fracture in a dog.
    Author: Konrade KA, Clode AB, Michau TM, Roe SC, Trumpatori BJ, Krug WV, Gilger BC.
    Journal: Vet Ophthalmol; 2009; 12(2):119-24. PubMed ID: 19261168.
    Abstract:
    A grossly displaced segmental zygomatic arch fracture with marked ventro-lateral deviation of the left globe was diagnosed in a 3-month-old male German Shepherd dog following a bite injury. The fracture was approached via a modified lateral orbitotomy and a fragment of the lacrimal bone removed. The rostral portion of the fracture was stabilized with a 5-hole 2.0 dynamic compression plate bone plate. The surgical correction achieved sufficient skeletal fixation for proper anatomical reduction of the globe and excellent cosmetic and functional outcomes.
