Summary

The authors present a case report of a 37 years old patient who arrives at the Clinic of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery in Ružomberok on the New Year. An extensive foreign body is located in the patient´s orbit - a Christmas tree branch 11 cm long. The foreign body penetrates the mediocaudal part of the orbit, passes through the orbital bottom into the maxillary cavity and to the deep retromaxillary space and ends in the infratemporal fossa. Eye bulb and optic nerve remain undamaged. In the case study, the authors describe CT images, surgical approach of extraction and its risks. They refer to necessity of early extraction of biological foreign body, emphasize the control of bleeding and point to cooperation with the ophthalmologist.
