Abstract
None:
A 72-year-old female required bilateral socket reconstruction with dermis fat grafting for exposed implants after undergoing staged enucleations with insertion of porous polyethylene implants with suturing platforms (EZYPOR) 18 months previously. Patient factors, surgical technique, and implant design may have contributed to the exposures. Additional clinical studies with long-term follow-up are needed to determine if this style of implant is predisposed to complications.
