摘要

The purpose of this case series is to report the indications for dermis-fat grafting and the outcome of treatment in orbital soft tissue contraction among patients in a tertiary center. It is a retrospective, consecutive, interventional case series where all patients with orbital soft tissue contraction who had dermis-fat grafting were studied. All nine patients in our series underwent secondary dermis-fat grafting for orbital soft tissue reconstruction. The major cause for contracted socket was surgical eye removal following trauma. Eight of nine patients had no orbital implants inserted at the time of primary eye removal and eight patients have had failed orbital reconstructive procedures. Satisfactory cosmetic results were reported in all patients post-operatively. Dermis-fat grafting for contracted socket reconstruction was found to give satisfactory cosmetic results in our studied population.
