Glued fixation of split-skin graft to the bony orbit following exenteration.
A technique is described to fix a split-skin graft to the bony orbit with a new homologous fibrin adhesive system. This shortens the time between the exenteration and the fitting of an epithesis to the bony orbit as compared with the granulation technique or fitting the graft with a prolonged pressure bandage. The advantages and risks connected to the glue system are discussed.
