Objective To evaluate the clinical result of using osseointegratedimplants to retain removable orbital prostheses in repairing orbital defects. Methods Two patients with orbital defects caused by orbitaltumor were treated. Each of them got 4 implants. After average 6 months, we performed the secondary operation. After 7 weeks, we took impressions to make the implant-retained prostheses. The magnetic attachment was adopted. The prostheses were made of polysiloxane material(Factor II,Lakeside,Ariz). Results Both of the patients got the successful facial prostheses and were followed up 2 and 8 years respectively. All the implants were integrated well. There were no apparent inflammatory reactions in the soft tissue around percutaneous implants. The patients were satisfied with the facial appearance. Conclusion Implant-retained orbital prostheses are safe and effective in repairing orbital defects.
