Secondary infection affecting one of two simultaneously placed orbital wall implants.


ABSTRACT: A 10-year-old boy experienced traumatic injuries to the right bony orbit, which were repaired with a nylon foil and a barrier porous polyethylene orbital implant. Three years after surgery, he presented with maxillary and ethmoid sinusitis with infection of the nylon foil plate. This plate was removed, yielding complete recovery.
