Orbital implants following enucleation are able beyond all doubt to compensate volume adequately and improve artificial eye motility. In recent decades progress has been made concerning implant material. Nevertheless, in most designs wrapping with homoplastic or alloplastic materials is advocated. In this report a microsurgical concept is presented to avoid wrapping material and at the same time to improve prosthesis motility in a hydroxyapatite-silicon implant. In a retrospective study two groups of patients (15 individuals each) were compared concerning prosthesis motility 6 months after surgery. In group 1 the horizontal and vertical eye muscles were sutured cross-wise in front of the implant (as done since the introduction of this type in 1989). In group 2 autologous muscle pedunculated scleral flaps were dissected microsurgically and used to cover the anterior part of the porous hydroxyapatite component of the implant. There was a highly significant better prosthesis motility and so far no complications concerning implant coverage in this second group. The authors consider the use of muscle pedunculated sclera to be a modification to improve the cosmetic outcome which may also reduce the postoperative complication rate in enucleation surgery.
