Video Summary
The presentation details a technique for fabricating patient-specific implants for correcting enophthalmos from an unrepaired orbital fracture. A custom implant design is created via 3D computer modeling for precise surgical application. The implant, made from titanium embedded in porous polyethylene, is shaped using a mold and forming tool, with heat aiding its stability. The importance of implant shape and orientation is emphasized, particularly the use of a lip for proper positioning. Post-operative CT scans and views demonstrate substantial improvements in the orbital structure and eye position, showcasing the technique's effectiveness in restoring orbital anatomy.
