Abstract
The two main risks of these injuries are first mechanical, with possible bulb, nerve, muscle or bone complications, and second infectious. The CT scan or better yet MRI imaging provide a detailed analysis of the projectile's intraorbital trajectory in the orbital cavity. Infectious complications are promoted by the fat cells present in the orbit and must be systematically controlled with wide-spectrum antibiotics.
