Antimicrobial-eluting cement orbital implant: a case report of staged enucleation for infectious panophthalmitis with extraocular extension.
Orbit (Amsterdam, Netherlands)(2023)
摘要
There are various orbital implant options following enucleation. In cases of severe infection, such as panophthalmitis with extraocular extension, it is reasonable to consider a two-staged approach to decrease the risk of infectious complications. One option, illustrated by this case, is enucleation with insertion of an antimicrobial-eluting cement implant, followed by a secondary procedure to exchange the cement with a permanent orbital implant. We report on a patient with clinical, ultrasound, and radiographical findings consistent with infectious panophthalmitis with extra-scleral extension. Intolerable pain and progressive orbital involvement in a blind eye were the indications for enucleation. To reduce the risk of persistent infection, a gentamycin-eluting cement implant (Palacos® R + G as an intraorbital implant) was utilized in the initial procedure. Two months later, the cement implant was removed, and a scleral-wrapped porous implant was placed into a quiet socket without signs of inflammation or infection. In the setting of severe infection, a two-staged procedure utilizing an antimicrobial-eluting implant can be considered.
