HaEmek Medical Center, Israel

Status: Unknown

Conditions: Orbital Fractures

Treatments: Procedure: operative fracture size vs CT fracture size; Procedure: orbital fracture intraoperative measurement

Study type: Interventional

Funder types: Other

Identifiers

NCT01464541

EMC-0046-11

Details and patient eligibility

About

Purpose to compare the orbital fracture size measured by orbital CT scan and compare it to the actual orbital fracture size intraoperatively in patients who needed surgical intervention to correct the fracture.

Hypothesis: there is difference between the CT measure fracture size and the actual intraoperative size.

Enrollment: 20 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers
