| Title | Correction of anophthalmic enophthalmos with injectable calcium hydroxylapatite (Radiesse). | | Author(s) | Kotlus BS, Dryden RM | | Institution | Arizona Centre Plastic Surgery, Tucson, Arizona, USA. kotlus@gmail.com | | Source | Ophthal Plast Reconstr Surg 2007 Jul-Aug; 23(4):313-4. | | Abstract | A 66-year-old man who presented with anophthalmic enophthalmos desired improvement in his appearance without invasive surgery. A nonincisional technique for volume augmentation in the anophthalmic socket with injectable calcium hydroxylapatite was performed. Clinical improvement was determined by comparison of preoperative and 6-month postoperative exophthalmometry values and photographs. Injectable calcium hydroxylapatite successfully increased orbital volume in this anophthalmic patient. | | Language | eng | | Pub Type(s) | Journal Article
