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 …

A retrospective review of clinical outcomes was performed to determine the clinical utility
and morbidity associated with the use of porous polyethylene facial implants. Three hundred …

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 …

Background Porous polyethylene (PP) has been used in craniofacial reconstruction but has
been primarily relegated to small and moderate size defects. This series evaluates the long …

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 …

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

Objective To determine the usefulness of porous high-density polyethylene implants
(Medpor) in a variety of facial skeletal deformities and subcutaneous defects, excluding …

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 …
