NCT01121159

Brief Summary

Accuracy of posttraumatic orbital reconstruction of the medial orbital wall and/or floor is better with preoperatively preformed orbital implants than with non-preformed orbital implants.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • shape and volume assessing software

    A post-op CT or CBCT scan will be analyzed with specially developed software that can compare shape and volume of the reconstruced orbit to the uninjured orbit.

    up to 3 days after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • shape and volume assessing software

    up to 3 days after surgery

  • Clinical tests to assess vision

    up to 3 days after surgery, 1 week after surgery, 4 weeks after surgery, 12 weeks after surgery

  • Rate of complications

    up to 3 days after surgery, 1 week after surgery, 4 weeks after surgery, 12 weeks after surgery

Study Arms (2)

Preoperatively preformed orbital plates

Reconstruction with MatrixMIDFACE Preformed Orbital Plate (Synthes) or Custom-made orbital implant

Procedure: orbital fracture repair

Non-preformed orbital plates

Reconstruction with Orbital Floor Mesh Plate or SynPOR Titanium Reinforced Fan Sheet (both Synthes)

Procedure: orbital fracture repair

Interventions

All patients will receive orbital fracture repair with one of the 4 specified implants

Non-preformed orbital platesPreoperatively preformed orbital plates
