View clinical trials related to Orbital Trauma.
Filter by:Comparative study used to assess if the patient specific zirconia implant will provide better accuracy, intraoperative adaptability, precise orbital volume and soft tissue reaction with more cost effectiveness than the patient specific titanium implants in orbital floor reconstruction after blow out fractures .
Patients with orbital injuries are entered into the trial. Age: 20 - 70. After obtaining appropriate consent, they are entered into either a control arm where reconstruction of the orbit is done with a titanium mesh (established practice) or the experimental arm where reconstruction is by a bioresorbable implant made of polycaprolactone. Patients are followuped at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months & 12 months. CT scan of the orbits are performed preop, 6 months & 12 months. End point is the 12 month follow-up appointment. Visual acuity, range of motion, enophthalmos & diplopia are assessed in follow-up.
