title: Diagnosis and surgical treatment of defects in the wall of the orbit of children and adults using demineralized bone allografts.
abstract: Accuracy of diagnosis defines the quality of treatment in patients with traumatic damage to eyelet walls. In this area, complex functional and anatomical breaches are typical and require full characterization of pathological changes in bone and soft tissue structures. A new plastic material with a high degree level of demineralization called "Perfoost" can be used to treat defects in the bones of the face of children and adults. In the present study, 79 patients with fractured eyelet walls were treated between 1999 and 2006 by grafting the defect wall with demineralized bone allografts. Grafts were applied from 2 days to 18 months after trauma. Magnetic resonance computer CT was used to check the realignment of allografts every 6 months after the reconstructive operation. The post-operative period of the observation was from 6 months to 7 years after the operation. Good or satisfactory results were obtained for 97.47 % of patients.
