OBJECTIVE: To assess the clinical effectiveness of porous polyethylene medpor channel implants (MCI) to restore orbital volume in repairing orbital wall fractures, evaluated by computed tomography (CT) and volume measurement program.
METHODS: Sixteen patients with unilateral large orbital fractures were included in this study. Computed tomography (CT) scans were used to obtain computer-based orbital volume measurement to assess the change in orbital volume pre- and post-operatively. Pre- and post-operative enophthalmos were measured using a Hertel exophthalmometer. The average time interval between injury and surgery was (17.4+/-10.0) days, and the mean follow-up period was 9 months.
RESULTS: Postoperative CT scan showed that most of the MCI to be well positioned. The orbital volume of the injured orbit was significantly increased [mean: (28.16+/-4.32) cm3] as compared with unaffected orbit preoperatively (t=3.044, P<0.01). There was no statistical difference in orbital volume between the injured and normal orbits after orbital reconstruction (t=0.069, P>0.05). The orbital volume change after reconstructive surgery was significantly positively correlated with the decrease of enophthalmos (r=0.715, P<0.01). In order to resolve 2 mm enophthalmos, more than 2.86 cm3 orbital volume augmentation is recommended.
CONCLUSIONS: Orbital volume measurement by CT scan is useful in the post-traumatic evaluation of severity of orbital fractures, and it can help predict the degree of late enophthalmos. Orbital reconstruction with the MCI, when indicated, is recommended.
