Abstract
Concomitant blowout fracture and rupture of the globe occurred in two patients. According to the hydraulic concept of pathogenesis, the simultaneous occurrence of these injuries is improbable. A more likely explanation of blowout fracture, with direct transmission of force through the infraorbital rim and resulting buckling of the floor, is advanced.
