Objectives The role of alloplastic materials in maxillofacial reconstruction is still
controversial. Determining the utility of porous, high-density, polyethylene implants as a …

Objective This paper deals with the usefulness and versatility of the porous high-density
polyethylene implants for correction of various facial deformities as an augmentation and an …

Deformities of the facial skeleton may be reconstructed using autogenic or allogenic
materials. Porous polyethylene is one of the few alloplastic materials currently in use having …

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 …

The Medpor porous polyethylene implant is a highly stable and somewhat flexible porous
alloplast that has been shown to exhibit rapid tissue ingrowth into its pores. A total of 116 …

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 …

In a previous study by our group evaluating the clinical use of Medpor® implants as
augmentation material in the facial skeleton, we examined cases with unexpected intense …

Medpor is a biocompatible, porous, high-density polyethylene implant material used as a
skeleton substitute. During the last two decades, it has been successfully applied for …

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 …

Porous polyethylene (Medpor) is an alloplastic material worldwide used for craniofacial
reconstruction. To evaluate complications and risk factors associated with this synthetic graft …
