Summary
This study demonstrates that individualized surgical plans significantly improve outcomes for intraorbital foreign body extraction. Successful removal enhances visual acuity and reduces complications like eye movement disturbance and ptosis.
Area of Science:
- Ophthalmology
- Surgical Techniques
- Medical Imaging
Background:
- Intraorbital foreign bodies pose a significant risk to vision.
- Effective surgical extraction is crucial for preserving ocular function.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the efficacy of a tailored surgical approach for intraorbital foreign body removal.
- To analyze the outcomes of surgical intervention for intraorbital foreign bodies.
Main Methods:
- Retrospective analysis of 27 cases undergoing intraorbital foreign body extraction.
- Pre-operative planning based on radiological imaging.
- Assessment of visual acuity, eye movement, and ptosis before and after surgery.
Main Results:
- Successful extraction achieved in all 27 cases, with a high rate of single-attempt removal (88.9%).
- Post-operative visual acuity improved or remained stable in 96.2% of cases.
- Significant reduction in the incidence of eye movement disturbances and ptosis observed post-surgery.
Conclusions:
- Individualized, radiology-guided surgical planning is effective for intraorbital foreign body extraction.
- This approach contributes to favorable visual recovery and functional improvement of the eye.
