  • Title: Dermis-fat graft in socket reconstruction: theoretical and experimental considerations.
    Author: Bullock JD, Brickman KR.
    Journal: Ophthalmology; 1984 Feb; 91(2):204-6. PubMed ID: 6369217.
    Abstract:
    Seventy-seven dermis-fat graft specimens with cup shapes of varying diameters were removed from nine cadavers, and their volumes were determined by volume displacement. Theoretical volumes were calculated by assuming that the cup shape of the grafts would result in a volume size between that of a cone and that of a cylinder, all of equal diameters and heights. The resulting data demonstrate a close correlation between the measured and the calculated volumes. Graft volume in different-sized orbits can be accurately determined by preplacement of different-sized Mule spheres and testing for adequacy of fit.
