Objective:
To evaluate the clinical result of using osseointegrated implants to repair removable orbital prostheses in repairing orbital defects.
Methods:
Two patients with orbital defects caused by orbital tumor were treated. Each of them got 4 implants. After average 6 months, we performed the secondary operation. After 7 weeks, we took impressions to make the implant-retained prostheses. The magnetic attachment was adopted. The prostheses were made of polysiloxane material (Factor II, Lakeside, Ariz).
Results:
Both of the patients got the successful facial prostheses and were followed up 2 and 8 years respectively. All the implants were integrated well. There were no apparent inflammatory reactions in the soft tissue around percutaneous implants. The patients were satisfied with the facial appearance.
Conclusion:
Implant-retained orbital prostheses are safe and effective in repairing orbital defects.
