Abstract
Supraorbital rim fracture is a rare sports-related injury encountered by craniofacial specialty and great challenge to the surgeons because of their anatomical location and relation with vital structures in close relation. Currently, in the literature, no classification system or treatment protocol exists for the supraorbital rim fracture. Supraorbital rim fracture forms a small proportion of sports-related injuries. Here we present a case with supraorbital rim fracture by sports injury diagnosed by computed tomography and treated surgically by open reduction methods using mini plates.Entities:
