OBJECTIVE To compare individually prefabricated computer-assisted designed/computer-assisted manufactured (CAD/CAM) glass-bioceramic implants with nonpreformed titanium meshes for orbital floor reconstruction in secondary correction of enophthalmos. METHODS In a nonrandomized, comparative, prospective cohort study, 2 groups of 10 patients received secondary correction of enophthalmos with CAD...

purpose : to present a case of orbital cellulitis secondary to dacryocystitis case report : a 48-year-old postmenopausal lady was referred with a prominent proptosis of the right eye in addition to external ophthalmoplegia. she had one year history of lacrimation. orbital computed tomography (ct) revealed an extraconal infiltration near the medial and inferior orbital wall consistent with orbit...

Purpose: To systematically review the current data to identify the best site for extra-oral implant placement in the orbit. Materials and Methods: Two independent reviewers performed a MEDLINE electronic search using PubMed and Web of Science databases to identify studies published in English from January 2005 until March 2017. A manual search was also performed for additional articles. The met...

PURPOSE To describe the clinical characteristics and ophthalmic management of 2 patients who developed gross enophthalmos after ventriculo-peritoneal shunting performed in their teenage years. A key radiologic feature is presented, and a conjectural mechanism is proposed for this disfiguring condition. METHODS Retrospective case note review for 2 patients requiring ophthalmic care for gross e...

The aim of the study was to assess factors leading revision surgery and implant position primary orbital fracture reconstructions. A retrospective cohort included patients who underwent floor and/or medial wall reconstruction for recent trauma. Demographics, type, implant-related variables, postoperative were analyzed. overall rate 6.5% (15 232 surgeries). highest in combined midfacial fracture...
