anteriorly: by the nasal bones, the bifrontal process of the maxilla, and the nasal process of the frontal bone.
laterally: by the lacrimal bone and lamina papyracea of the ethmoid
bone
medially: by the septum and the perpendicular plate of the
ethmoid

69
Q

Why NOE fractures particularly susceptible to CSP leak

A

70
Q

the angle of the palpebral fissure

A

trans canthal wiring. A 3-0 stainless steel wire is
passed from a point anterior to the medial canthal
attachment in NOE III

A

F superior and posterior to the medial canthal
attachment.
Placed anterior to the medial canthal attachment site will not prevent lateral migration of the canthus, thus
leading to permanent telecanthus and a broad nasal base

reduction

Q

Fracture patterns may differ on each side of the face

A

T In these cases,

Buccal sulcus

A

F Lefort II and III fractures benefit from the
