    Abstract:
    Subperiotal hematoma of the orbit associated with extradural hematoma has been rarely reported in the literature. We report a case of an 8-year-old girl who presented after traumatism, a subperiotal hematoma of the orbit with two extradural hematomas. During the first clinical examination realized while the patient was unconscious, left exophthalmia was found, but after conscious improvement, we discovered ophtalmoplegia and a grade I papilla edema. The CT scan showed two extradural hematomas and a left intraorbital hematoma. The intraorbital hematoma was drained by surgical way but the extradural hematomas were not surgical. The outcome has been marked by the neurological improvement and the oculomotricity recovering.
