“…This previous study also suggested that the majority of ocular injuries were minor and likely resulted in no permanent loss of visual function [5]. However, a review of a vehicle crash database from 1997-2005 suggested that airbags induce orbital blow-out fractures [23]. Although these fractures were solely attributed to airbag deployment, nine of 10 occupants were positioned at the airbag's deployment zone at the time of impact, the so-called "out-of-position", as a result of being unrestrained, falling asleep, and having decelerated before impact.…”

The patients suffering from severe upper or middle facial injuries have to be checked-up ophthalmologically because they might receive strong forces surround the eyes. This study investigates the patterns and severity of ocular and severe upper or middle facial injuries from real-world vehicle collisions in Japan. We collected data on vehicle passengers with any ocular injuries, or upper or middle facial fractures (OIFF) who were involved in frontal collisions. Data were obtained from in-depth data records from the Institute for Traffic Accident Research and Data Analysis (ITARDA), Japan from 1993 to 2005. Collision information and victims' medical data were reviewed. The 30 victims had a mean age of 33.0 ± 14.0 years with an equivalent barrier speed of 43.4 ± 14.6 km/h. The mean ISS was 10.4, and the face was the region with the highest AIS score (1.5). Most of the victims with OIFF (29/30) were involved in collisions without deployment of airbags. No significant differences in mean age, height, weight, ISS, AIS scores of the victim, EBS of the involved vehicles were found between victims with seatbelt and those without. Victims with OIFF need to be checked-up ophthalmologically after the collision; such treatment will likely improve their quality of life. Subsequently, conflict owing to the insufficient diagnosis and/or inappropriate management would be prevented.

“…Estas fracturas de órbita tras activación del airbag, parecen estar relacionadas con una posición adelantada del ocupante lesionado en el momento de la activación del airbag 29 . Jin -Man Kim 30 refiere en Corea un caso muy similar al que nosotros describimos: cita las lesiones producidas en una mujer de 43 años, que utilizaba cinturón de seguridad y cuyo coche chocó contra una barrera, a una velocidad de unos 45 kms/h, produciendo daños en el parachoques del automóvil.…”

“…Blowout fractures are amongst the most frequently observed facial injuries in maxillofacial surgery (Suzuki et al, 2001;Chang and Manolidis, 2005;Rinna et al, 2005;Francis et al, 2006;Fan et al, 2007;Kaufman et al, 2008). For the prevention and effective treatment of blowout fractures, it is essential to understand the aetiology of blowout fractures.…”

Air Bag‐Induced Orbital Blow‐Out Fractures

Abstract: Air bag deployment may result in orbital blow-out fractures. Occupants positioned in close proximity to the air bag during its deployment phase appear to be at increased risk for orbital blow-out fractures.
