Caption

Radiology images from a 21-year-old woman who presented with a chronic nasal bone fracture and soft tissue swelling of the left lateral face. Review of electronic medical records revealed that nine months ago, the patient had suffered a finger fracture, left medial orbital wall fracture and similar soft tissue swelling on the left side of the face. Traumatic findings separated in time suggest recurrent violence.
