Hemorrhagic Cyst of the Orbit as a Long-term Complication of Prosthetic Orbital Floor Implant

Late orbital haemorrhage around alloplastic orbital floor implants: a case series and review

“…There have been 10 cases (Table 1) reported in the literature of late orbital haemorrhage following alloplastic implants, occurring at 3 months to 20 years (median 14 years) after implant 1,3−7 . These were five men and five women, aged 20−49 years (median 33 years).…”

“…Minor trauma was implicated in one case only, 3 and a bout of coughing and sneezing in one 6 . All cases were imaged with ultrasono­graphy, and CT was used in five cases, 1,7 CT alone in four 4,5 and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in one 6 . All identified the lesion.…”

“…The most commonly reported complications of alloplastic orbital floor implants include infection, implant extrusion and ectropion with scleral show 2 . Orbital haemorrhage surrounding the implant is an uncommon complication of alloplastic implants and has been reported as small case series or individual case reports 1−6 . We reviewed the clinical, radiological and pathological findings of four cases of late orbital haemorrhage occurring around alloplastic orbital floor implants.…”

A rare late complication of silicone orbital implant

“…При диагностической пункции была получе-на характерная для этой нозологии геморраги-ческая жидкость [10,11,21,25,26]. Бактерио-логическое исследование роста микрофлоры не выявило.…”

“…* -существенно различающееся расстояние между склерой и крышей обеих орбит докапсулы (но без вскрытия полости придаточной пазухи носа (!) [8,26]) силиконовый имплантат был удалён. Эксплантация монолитного полиме-ра не сопровождалась какими-либо технически-ми трудностями.…”
