High-density porous polyethylene (HDPP) has been extensively used in craniofacial
reconstructions with high-level success and minimal complications. It is known for its …

Porous polyethylene (PPE) implants are biocompatible alloplastic materials commonly used
for facial augmentation. However, the effect of sub-periosteal PPE application on the …

Numerous autogenous and alloplastic materials have been used for restoration of contour
deformities of the face. Alloplastic materials have come into use to replace autogeneous …

Purpose A new form of porous polyethylene, characterized by higher porosity and pore
interconnectivity, was developed for use as a tissue-integrated implant. This study evaluated …

The aim of this paper was to determine the utility of high density porous polyethylene
implants (HDPE) in a variety of facial skeletal deformities. Sixteen patients (age range 14–28 …

The aim of the present study was to assess the indications, results and complications of
patients treated with porous polyethylene (Medpor®) implants in the Department of Oral and …

Medpor is a porous polyethylene biomaterial used in plastic and reconstructive surgery in
the craniofacial skeleton. Its porous nature allows for substantial vascular and soft-tissue …

Porous high-density polyethylene (Medpor®) is a biocompatible large-pore, high-density
polyethylene implant. It is well tolerated by surrounding tissue, and its porous structure is …

Background/Aim: High-density porous polyethylene (PP) offers possibilities for
reconstruction in craniofacial surgery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the extent of …

Use of alloplastic materials in facial bone reconstruc-tion is still controversial. Medpor
porous polyethylene is a relatively new implant material that is well suited for this purpose …
