Periorbital skull fractures were diagnosed in 5 horses, and were associated with ophthalmic complications including corneal ulceration, uveitis, and entrapment of the eye by retrobulbar bone fragments. Physical examination was of greater diagnostic use than radiography. Surgical repair was performed on all horses and was associated with a more favorable postoperative appearance in horses treated acutely; however, the cosmetic results were considered acceptable in all horses. Major postoperative complications were not observed.
5匹马被诊断为眶周颅骨骨折，并伴有眼部并发症，包括角膜溃疡、葡萄膜炎和球后骨碎片导致的眼球嵌顿。体格检查比放射照相具有更大的诊断价值。所有马匹均接受了手术修复，急性治疗的马匹术后外观更佳；然而，所有马匹的美容效果均被认为可以接受。未观察到严重的术后并发症。
