Reconstructing periorbital soft tissue and socket deformities requires careful evaluation of 3D defects. This study presents cases of structural reconstruction and prosthetic globe replacement after trauma or infection.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Plastic Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Periorbital soft tissue and socket deformities can arise from trauma or infection.
  • These deformities may affect the bony orbit, orbital contents, and surrounding soft tissues.
  • Comprehensive evaluation is crucial for effective treatment planning.

Observation:

  • Soft-tissue reconstruction demands an understanding of three-dimensional defects.
  • Structural reconstruction combined with prosthetic globe replacement requires meticulous planning.
  • The study presents three illustrative cases detailing challenges and outcomes.

Findings:

  • Successful reconstruction of periorbital defects depends on addressing both structural and aesthetic components.
  • Prosthetic globe replacement can restore function and appearance in cases of severe orbital damage.

  • Careful surgical planning is paramount for achieving optimal results in complex orbital reconstructions.

    • Implications:

    • This work highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in managing periorbital deformities.
    • The presented cases offer valuable insights for surgeons dealing with similar complex reconstructive challenges.
    • Improved techniques in soft-tissue reconstruction and prosthetic fitting can enhance patient quality of life after trauma or infection.
