“…Mauriello et al 7 described 3 patients in whom proptosis and diplopia developed owing to cystlike encapsulation of polytef implants at 13, 16, and 20 years after surgery. Sewall et al 8 reported a similar finding in a patient treated with a silicone graft 13 years earlier. Alloplastic complications, which are infrequent and are usually reported as isolated cases, include orbital infection, implant migration, dacryocystitis, hyperophthalmia, fistula formation, visual loss, and proptosis secondary to hemorrhage into the fibrous capsule.…”

Objective: To evaluate the use of autogenous maxillary bone for the repair of orbital floor defects secondary to blunt facial trauma.Design: Retrospective case series of 41 patients with a mean follow-up of 1.7 years.Setting: Major metropolitan teaching hospital.Patients: Forty-one consecutive patients who underwent repair of orbital floor fractures with maxillary antral wall bone grafts.Main Outcome Measures: Presence of diplopia, orbital dystopia, implant extrusion, enophthalmos, infection, and donor site complications.Results: On follow-up clinical examinations, none of the 41 patients presented with any evidence of orbital dystopia or complications relative to the implant or donor site. Two patients had persistent enophthalmos, and 4 had persistent infraorbital nerve paresthesia. Postoperative computed tomographic scans in 12 patients revealed an adequate maintenance of orbital volume without any evidence of resorption of the graft. Conclusion:The use of maxillary antral wall bone for the repair of orbital floor fractures is a highly reliable technique that carries minimal morbidity.

“…Formation of cysts have not yet been well-documented. [5][6][7] We have found reports of complications up to 13 years after implantation, 8,9 but we know of no report of an inclusion cyst that presented as late as 31 years (as this did).…”

“…4 A similar reactive inflammatory response or a foreign body reaction may have been the cause in our case. In addition, the rod itself could have caused a purely mechanical inflammatory response while rubbing on the surrounding tissue as the globe moved.…”
