RDD should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a young patient in good health who presents with a marked but benign enlargement of an orbital mass. A review of the literature regarding this disease entity and its orbital manifestations is discussed.
Self-expanding hydrogel tissue expanders appear to offer an intriguing reconstructive alternative to the frustrating condition of congenital anophthalmia. Long-term safety of the material as an orbital implant has not yet been demonstrated, but early results are promising.
