For optimal results, an accurate assessment of the injury and a comprehensive treatment plan is to be formulated as early as possible, as management of facial fractures and injuries remains a mainstay of the specialty. The intricate anatomy and difficulty in fracture fixation makes Naso-orbital-ethmoidal fractures the most complex of all facial fractures to diagnose and treat, so a thorough knowledge of facial norms, surgical anatomy, and reconstruction techniques is mandatory for successful treatment.
