Novel Use of Cryopreserved Ultra-thick Human Amniotic Membrane for Management of Anophthalmic Socket Contracture.
PURPOSE: To describe the use of cryopreserved ultra-thick human amniotic membrane for management of anophthalmic socket contracture.
METHODS: A chart review was performed to identify patients undergoing fornix reconstruction with cryopreserved ultra-thick human amniotic membrane for management of anophthalmic socket contracture. Patient demographics, disease etiology, and data regarding postoperative prosthesis fit and complications were collected.
RESULTS: The technique is described in 3 female patients with anophthalmic socket contracture who underwent fornix reconstruction using cryopreserved ultra-thick human amniotic membrane. All patients had excellent prosthesis fit at final follow up (range, 10-14 months). There were no clinically significant complications and no reoperations were performed. One pyogenic granuloma developed and was excised without affecting ocular prosthesis fit.
CONCLUSIONS: Cryopreserved ultra-thick human amniotic membrane is easy to use, well tolerated, and produces good outcomes for management of anophthalmic socket contracture.
