THE ASSESSMENT OF THE MORPHOFUNCTIONAL CONDITION OF AN LOCOMOR EYE STUMP IN EYE EVISCERATION USING VARIOUS TYPES OF ORBITAL IMPLANTS

Abstract

The purpose of our research was to study the morphofunctional state of locomotor eye stumps of experimental animals occurring after performing eye evisceration by means of the developed method using various types of orbital implants. The conducted pathomorphological and functional studies have shown that the most significant and best results (р < 0.05) were received in the group of experimental animals where allogenic graft from the adipose cellular tissue of the sole aponeurosis was used an implant. It is integrated in the tissue of the recipient, is not rejected and well modelled, which makes it possible to create a movable locomotor eye stump of the corresponding size with the preservation of sphericity of the anterior surface of locomotor eye stump for better contact with the posterior surface of the eye prosthesis. The absence of complications, preservation of the natural topography of the stump inside the socket and well evident conjunctival fornixes make it possible to perform individual eye prosthetics within the optimal terms. Moreover, this material is widely available and does not require additional economic costs.
