Orbital Bony Reconstruction With Presized and Precontoured Porous Polyethylene-Titanium Implants.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Complex bony orbital defects are reconstructively challenging due to loss of intraoperative anatomical landmarks and adjacent support. Presized and precontoured porous polyethylene-titanium implants (Medpor Titan 3D Orbital Floor Implant) are designed to reestablish normal orbital floor and medial wall anatomy and are modeled after anatomically averaged orbits. This is the first study to report clinical outcomes with this implant.

Methods

This retrospective case series reviewed clinical data and outcomes for patients undergoing orbital reconstruction with a presized and precontoured porous polyethylene-titanium orbital implant from January 2016 to June 2018.

Results

A total of 34 orbits of 33 patients were identified (mean age: 43 ± 16 years, 70% men). Most bo
