[Surgical management of the advanced orbit malignancies].
Twenty one patients with advanced malignant tumors of the orbit have been treated in the Department of Otolaryngology, Medical Academy in Warsaw, between 1980 and 1995. There were two groups of patients: five with primary orbital tumors and sixteen with secondary tumors that penetrated from sinuses. In all cases surgical treatment with orbital exenteration has been performed, as well as postoperative radiotherapy. The local cutaneus flaps and temporalis muscle flap have been used for reconstruction of the orbitomaxillary defects. The authors suggest that one-stage reconstruction of maxillo-facial region after surgery decreases facial deformation and allows to apply ocular prothesis guickly.
