An unusual complication associated with maxillofacial trauma is the superior orbital fissure syndrome (SOFS). Trauma-related SOFS often presents within 48 h of injury, but presentation can be delayed by several days. This article sums up the particulars of the syndrome and treatments done in the literature and discusses our experience of managing this complex case.
