Abstract
The lower eyelid skin-muscle flap is now widely used for cosmetic blepharoplasty, primarily because of the ease and speed of dissection it offers. We have used the same technique as a surgical approach in fractures of the orbital floor and rim. In a large clinical series seen over a three and a half-year period, no major complications were noted. This approach provides simple, extremely rapid exposure of the injured area and is an excellent alternative to other approaches to this site.
