“…[1][2][3][4] Numerous porous implants made from a variety of other materials have been described over the past 15 years. [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] Some are available throughout North America, others are available only in certain parts of the world, and some are still at an investigational stage. The most commonly used porous implants in North America are (in no particular order) coralline HA (Bio-Eye), porous polyethylene (Medpor), FCI 3 synthetic HA (Canada only), and aluminum oxide (Bioceramic).…”

“…Numerous porous implants made from a variety of other materials have been described over the last 15 years. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] Complications reported with hydroxyapatite (HA) and other porous orbital implants include discharge, implant exposure, conjunctival thinning, pyogenic granuloma formation, implant infection, and persistent pain or discomfort. 3,5,7,8,20 -39 Although implant exposure is the most common problem, [22][23][24][25][26]30 implant infection is the most serious because removal of the implant is often required.…”

“…Em redor de cada implante existiam áreas de moderada inflamação bem como áreas de inflamação escassa, sem razões discerníveis para justificar estas diferenças. Estas áreas de variabilidade inflamatória também foram reportadas em um estudo usando o Gore-Tex como implante orbital em coelhos e enucleando-os após seis semanas (24) . Houve evidência de formação de cápsula fibrosa em todos os espécimes, porém esta não era homogênea quanto à espessura e estava ausente em alguns locais.…”
