Blow-out fracture of the orbital floor in early childhood.

Because of the anatomy of the developing bones in early childhood, blow-out fractures are rare before the age of 8 years. We present two cases where after a fall, computed tomography examinations revealed a blow-out fracture of the left orbital floor in a 12-month-old child and 27-month-old child. Because no associated symptoms were noted, both cases were managed conservatively.
