Abstract

Facial contusion may be accompanied by inconspicuous structural damage of the underlying muscular tissue, leading to unnatural expressions. Surgery can be a choice to correct this dynamic deformity. This case report describes a rare case of orbicularis oculi muscle rupture following blunt injury. Cosmetic improvement was achieved with the surgical restoration of the torn muscle. The etiology of this phenomenon is also discussed.
