Abstract: | To correct the contracted eye socket and orbitozygomatic hypoplasia simultaneously secondary to previous surgery and radiotherapy, we employed a one-stage surgical reconstruction that used a postauricular skin flap and temporal fascial flap, which were rotated for eye socket reconstruction and bone graft coverage. Hydroxyapatite was inserted as an onlay bone graft substitute to enlarge the orbitozygomatic region. In our 12-case experience the results were satisfying and encouraging with minor complications, which are presented. |
