“…Early recognition of pneumomediastinum is important as air tracking into the mediastinum may cause obstruction of the upper airway, a tension pneumothorax and cardiac failure, or introduce infection [2,6,9,11]. Further hazards include air embolism, otologic complications, dysphagia and dysphonia [1,2,8].…”

“…It also can develop from facial bone fractures; SE that involves the walls of maxilla has been under-reported [3,4,5,6,7,8,9,11]. This is a report of a case of one-sided facial SE that resulted from a tiny fracture at the base of the maxillary antrum after a relatively minor trauma to the cheek.…”

“…The presence of orbital, subconjunctival, and subcutaneous emphysema may be due to air from the nasal cavity entering between the loose tissue planes of the orbit after fracture of the orbital wall(s). 4,5 Emphysema may be subcutaneous, subconjunctival, orbital, or any combination of these. Most occurrences of orbital emphysema require no specific treatment because the process is self-limiting, with an approximate duration of 2 weeks.…”

“…Akut orbital-periorbital komplikasyonların çoğu lateral osteotomilerle ilişkilidir. Osteotomiyi takiben oluşan medial orbital duvar hasarı paranazal sinüslerden havanın orbitaya girmesine izin verdiği için yüksek retrobulbar basınç, orbita sıkışması ve nihayetinde orbital amfizem ile sonuçlanabilir5 . Osteotomi sırasında etmoid kemiğin kırılması ve sonrasında maske ile ventilasyonu takiben yüksek basınca dayanamaması sonucunda da periorbital amfizem görülebilir.…”
