a technique for fabrication of an orbital prosthesis: a case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
rehabilitation of facial defects is a complex task, requiring an individualized design of the technique for each patient. the disfigurement associated with the loss of an eye may result in significant physical and emotional problems. various treatment modalities are available, one of which is the use of implants. although implant-supported orbital prosthesis has a superior outcome, it may not be advisable in all the patients due to economic factors. the present article describes a simplified technique for the fabrication of a silicone orbital prosthesis by constructing a custom ocular prosthesis to achieve ideal fit and aesthetics. multidisciplinary management and team approach are essential in providing accurate and effective rehabilitation.

متن کاملFabrication of a Silicone Auricular Prosthesis – A Case Report
The rehabilitation of a patient with facial defects is a challenging task. An alternative to surgical reconstruction is the creation of a silicone auricular prosthesis. The replacement of anatomical parts is an art and science. These prostheses provide a cost-effective and an acceptable means of camouflage for patients who are disinclined to surgical reconstruction. The process of creating a si...
