A rationale for the surgical treatment of exophthalmos and exorbitism.

S A Wolfe.   

Abstract

Exophthalmos and exorbitism, although both manifesting protrusion of the eye, differ in their aetiology and treatment. Illustrative cases are presented from both catagories, with a short experimental section illustrating on the degree of orbital expansion obtained with various procedures. Methods for accurately measuring orbital volume clinically still require development.
