Reconstruction of the orbit

Surg Oncol Clin N Am. 1997 Jan;6(1):45-69.

Abstract

There are numerous methods for reconstruction of the orbit. The choices depend on the patient's age, the type of tumor, and the specific anatomic and functional demands required. Three-dimensional reconstructions, including bone and soft-tissue, and the particular needs of the ocular system must be considered, especially when subtotal or globe preservation procedures are used.
