Reconstruction of the orbit - a critical operation
Reconstruction of the orbit of the eye is most often performed due to blunt trauma resulting in a fracture. Reconstructive manipulations can be performed using the patient's tissues or artificial materials. These factors, as well as the complexity of the problem, have a direct impact on the ultimate cost of treatment and recovery.
Trauma to the orbit leads to the failure of the orbit into the maxillary sinus. Result: the eyes become asymmetrical. This is not only an aesthetic defect. Trauma can cause problems of a more serious nature:
- exophthalmos - displacement of the eyeball forward;
- double vision;
- loss of sensitivity in the cheekbones, upper teeth, nasal wings;
- enophthalmos;
- diplopia;
- edema and emphysema under the skin in varying degrees of manifestation.
A specific symptom of orbital fracture is pupil dilation (5-8 mm). Pathology persists for several weeks or months. Pupil reactions to light are absent. To differentiate the fracture from contusion mydriasis, instillations of pilocarpine are used. In case of injury, the pupil will constrict.
The recovery operation is quite complex. Orbital reconstruction can lead to certain complications if performed by an insufficiently qualified specialist. The price can be visual impairment and cosmetic defects. In Israeli clinics, maxillofacial surgery is at a very high level. The quality of reconstruction services is due not only to the high profile of doctors and extensive experience, but also to the availability of advanced equipment. With its help, you can accurately determine the degree of damage, choosing the most effective ways to solve the problem with the lowest risks. The cost of surgery in Israel is not much different from the price in clinics in Europe, and in terms of effectiveness it is much higher.
Reconstruction of the orbit in Israel
If the injury does not bring discomfort to the patient, no cosmetic defects are observed, then the operation is not required. All other cases are indications for surgical intervention.
Eye orbital reconstruction services in an Israeli clinic initially involve a full examination for inflammation, additional damage, and the degree of damage. The purpose of the operation is to restore the initial shape and volume of the damaged area.
The first 14 days are considered the optimal time for orbit reconstruction. It is during this period that the operations are most effective. Delayed interventions are those carried out 3 weeks to 4 months after the injury. In this period, it is still possible to do without osteotomy. Operations carried out 4 or more months after the injury are very difficult. Osteotomy is required.
Don't waste time with problems like this. Otherwise, there is a risk of not only preserving aesthetic, but also functional defects.
