Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Periocular injuries during a caesarean section are extremely rare. The case report of a five hour old newborn addresses the trauma management concerning diagnostics, therapy, and post-operative care of a deep periocular soft tissue injury. The pattern of injury consisted of full thickness wounds of the medial and lateral lid margins, opening of the superior conjunctival fornix, and penetration of Tenon's capsule. The reconstruction was performed layer by layer while an autostable monocanaliculonasal lacrimal intubation was inserted. PMID:33822270 | DOI:10.1007/s00106-021-01039-8 View on the web Inoreader.
