View image

The arrow head points to the presence of a linear nondisplaced fracture in the axial plane fracture of the palatine bone. Note the extensive laceration involving the filtrum with subcutaneous air.


FRACTURE OF ANTERIOR WALL OF LEFT MAXILLARY SINUS WITH AIR FLUID LEVEL.

View second image

The arrow points to the presence of a mildly depressed fracture involving the anterior wall of the left maxillary sinus with a small associated air fluid level. The complete opacification of the right maxillary sinus may be as the result of blood in the setting of trauma or may be due to extensive sinus mucosal disease. Air within the infero-temporal fossae bilaterally (arrow heads) is most likely the result of paranasal sinus fracture. However extension from any other focus of subcutaneous air is possible.


EXTENSIVE COMMINUTED AND DEPRESSED FRONTAL BONE FRACTURE.

View third image

The arrow points to the presence of a comminuted fracture involving the left frontal bone with a significant degree of depression. Note that the adjacent portion of the frontal sinus is also partially opacified indicating its involvement.
