  • Title: Infectious Complication Following Midface Reconstruction With Calcified Triglyceride.
    Author: Cooper SE, Durairaj VD, Ramakrishnan VR.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Plast Reconstr Surg; 2015; 31(6):e157-9. PubMed ID: 24901377.
    Abstract:
    This case report describes an infectious complication related to the use of calcified triglyceride (Kryptonite Bone Cement) in post-traumatic midface reconstruction. Ultimately, the infected material required removal, and the facial deformity was repaired with subsequent procedures. The literature suggests that bone cement products should be used with caution when in contact with the paranasal sinuses.
