Treatment of orbital floor fractures and defects is often a complex issue. Repair of these
injuries essentially aims to restore the continuity of the orbital floor and to provide an …

This maintenance of certification module reviews the anatomy, pathophysiology, diagnosis,
and management of orbital floor fractures in addition to special considerations for pediatric …

PURPOSE: Post-traumatic or postablative enophthalmos and diplopia and/or facial
asymmetry resulting from inaccurate restoration of orbital anatomy remain relatively frequent …

Periosteum has been demonstrated to have cell populations, including chondroprogenitor
and osteoprogenitor cells, that can form both cartilage and bone under appropriate …

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 …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the reported use and outcomes of implant materials used for the
restoration of post-traumatic orbital floor defects in adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A …

Background: There has been growing interest in using porous alloplastic implants for
reconstructive orbital surgery because of their perceived increased biocompatibility. One …

Advances in biotechnology continue to introduce new materials for reconstruction of orbital
floor fractures. Which material is best fit for orbital floor reconstruction has been a …

Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) is a promising biomedical material. However, the
haemocompatibility (haemolysis and thrombogenicity) and acute and sub-chronic immune …

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