Abstract
|
|
|
|
Orbital wall reconstruction after maxillectomy for maxillary malignancies is very challenging for surgeons. Preservation of the orbit is a current trend in this procedure in order to increase the quality of life of patients. If the patients have not achieved a proper and adequate rigid frame of the orbital floor after maxillectomy, they can suffer from enophthalmos, diplopia, and/or decreased vision. The authors report one case of immediate orbital floor reconstruction using a bioreabsorbable panel and titanium mesh after successful suprastructure maxillectomy. The functional and plastic outcomes of the orbit were excellent 4 years after surgery, without complications or recurrence.
