Problem of orbital implants after enucleation.
GREAT efforts have been made by ophthalmologists in the last 10 years to design an implant conveying good prosthetic mobility, to offset in part the tragic result of excision. The immediate success of the implants aroused enthusiasm, but subsequent complications, including suppuration and expulsion, have led to further modifications. So frequent were these disappointments in spite of changes in...
متن کاملPre-enucleation irradiation of uveal melanoma.
The relative efficacy of various types of treatment in preventing metastatic uveal melanoma is unclear. We have performed a phase I-II non-randomised trial to determine if patients with large (greater than 15 mm in diameter or greater than 5 mm in thickness) uveal melanomas would benefit from pre-enucleation irradiation. Twenty-eight patients were treated between 1978 and 1983 by means of 5 X 5...
متن کاملCavernous haemangioma presenting as an orbital mass after enucleation for a choroidal melanoma: case report.
A patient presented with an ipsilateral orbital mass four years after enucleation for a choroidal malignant melanoma. Clinical examination revealed a darkly coloured mass suggestive of recurrent melanoma. CT scanning indicated a locally extensive tumour. Management was by excision without resort to orbital exenteration. Pathological examination revealed a cavernous haemangioma. The natural hist...
متن کاملMeasurement of Orbital Volume after Enucleation and Orbital Implantation
INTRODUCTION This article reports experience relating to the measurement of orbital volume by means of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and Cranioviewer program software in patients who have undergone enucleation and orbital implantation. PATIENTS AND METHODS CBCT scans were made in 30 cases, 10 of which were later excluded because of various technical problems. The study group therefore ...
متن کاملEvaluation of efficacy and complications: primary pediatric orbital implants after enucleation.
BACKGROUND Orbital implants are used routinely in pediatric patients at the time of enucleation. Complications, such as exposure, ptosis, and infection, may occur after implantation. Controversy continues regarding the rate of complications with newer implants in the pediatric population. OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of orbital implants on children whose eyes have been enucleated. METHO...
