Use of Frost sutures in an orbital trauma patient with extensive conjunctival oedema and pseudoproptosis.
Frost sutures are temporary suspension sutures conventionally used in oculoplastics. The case is presented here of a patient with multiple orbital fractures who developed worsening conjunctival chemosis and pseudoproptosis. This patient was managed successfully with Frost sutures. To the best of the authors' knowledge, there is no documented use of Frost sutures in this type of case. It is emphasized that this technique should only be considered following rigorous exclusion of retrobulbar pathology and careful attention towards early detection of raised intraocular pressure.
