This illustration details extensive craniofacial trauma, including facial lacerations, skull fractures, and brain injuries. The facial injuries show complex lacerations on the right forehead, temporal region, cheek, and ear. Skull fractures include a large depressed fracture in the parietal-temporal region, a fracture of the right orbit, a slightly displaced zygomatic arch fracture, and a fracture of the anterior wall of the maxillary sinus. The brain injuries depicted involve cerebral contusions and intracranial hemorrhage, with associated damage to the optic and olfactory nerves. Retinal edema is also present, indicating trauma to the visual pathway. This combination of injuries reflects severe blunt force impact to the head and face. |
