Abstract

Purpose : To present long-term follow-up data on eviscerations performed with autogenous scleral graft and a ceramic implantation by posterior way.

Methods : This study is a retrospective analysis of all eviscerations performed in the department of ophthalmology, Montpellier, France, between February 1998 and October 2015. The technic used was a conventional anterior evisceration with a total keratectomy, a disinsertion of the medial rectus muscle, a sectioning of the optic nerve and a taking of sclera centered on the papilla. The scleral graft was sutured just behind the suture of keratectomy, and the bioceramic implant carried out by posterior way. Demographic characteristics, implant size and type, cosmetics and complications were recorded.

Results : In total, 134 patients were included. The female to male ratio was 1/ 1,71. The median (interquartile range) size of implant was 17.32mm (1.84mm, [14-20]). The median follow-up after evisceration was 53.5 [2-138] months. Two cases of implant exposure (1.49%) were recorded during the study period. For 24 patients (17.9%), additional surgeries were performed for ptosis, conjunctival cyst or anophthalmic socket syndrome. Cosmetics results were recorded as good or excellent in 82.71% of cases.

Conclusions : Evisceration with autogenous scleral graft and implantation by posterior way suggest a high volume restoration, high rate of good mobility and low risks of exposure of the implant.
