Abstract

Post-traumatic skull base fractures can cause cranial nerve paralysis. Mortality and morbidity rates are high in skull base fractures. Treatment modalities should be determined by a multidisciplinary evaluation. Here a case of crushing head injury with right abducens, facial and left optic nerve palsies caused by skull base and orbital fracture is presented.

Özet

Travma sonrası kafa tabanı kırıkları kraniyal sinir felçlerine neden olabilmektedir. Kafa tabanı kırıklarında mortalite ve morbidite oranları yüksektir. Bu olgular multidisipliner bir şekilde değerlendirilip tedavi şekline karar verilmelidir. Bu yazıda, ezilme şeklinde kafa travması sonrası kafa tabanı ve orbita kemik kırıklarının yol açtığı sağ abdu-sens, sağ fasiyal sinir felçli ve sol optik nöropatili bir olgu sunuldu.
