[Current aspects of surgical treatment in anophthalmia].
The purpose of this work was to determine the main trends in surgical rehabilitation of patients with anophthalmia and define the principles of treating patients with poor ocular prostheses. A total of 3345 interventions on the orbital cavity and eye appendages were carried out at plastic surgery and ocular prosthesis department in 1991-2000. Of these, 1535 patients (45.8%) were with anophthalmia. Analysis of disease structure in anophthalmia helped determine the priority trends of surgical rehabilitation of this group of patients: enucleation with plasty of the supporting motor stump, 36.6%; postradiation atrophy of orbital tissues after enucleation for retinoblastoma, 22.6%; anophthalmic syndrome, 11.7%; cicatricial deformation of the cavity, 11.5%; anophthalmia with concomitant eyelid deformation, 6.1%; anophthalmia with orbital deformation, 3.1%; denudation of orbital implants, 2.6%; congenital anophthalmia, 2.5%; prolapse of the inferior vault and upper eyelid ptosis, 1.8 and 1.4%, respectively. Individual methods of treatment and main rehabilitation principles were developed for each group of patients.
