  • Title: Lactosorb panel and screws for repair of large orbital floor defects.
    Author: Enislidis G, Pichorner S, Kainberger F, Ewers R.
    Journal: J Craniomaxillofac Surg; 1997 Dec; 25(6):316-21. PubMed ID: 9504308.
    Abstract:
    In a series of five patients with extensive fractures of the orbital floor, we used a biodegradable sheet for bridging of the bony defects. To achieve optimal support of the orbital contents in their anatomically correct position, we fixed the sheet with at least two resorbable screws to the infraorbital rim. This new technique appears to be superior to conventional methods because it offers reproducible results without the need for secondary interventions.
