We describe the first-time use of the tissue expansion principle in oculoplastic surgery. We have designed a tissue expander for use in eyelid surgery. This instrument was successfully used to treat difficult cases of cicatricial ectropion from multiple causes, avoiding the need for tissue grafting. It was also utilized preoperatively so a large forehead scar could be removed with good resultant cosmesis. The potential for this device in oculoplastic surgery is exciting.
我们描述了组织扩张原理在眼部整形手术中的首次应用。我们设计了一种用于眼睑手术的组织扩张器。该器械已成功用于治疗多种原因导致的瘢痕性睑外翻疑难病例,避免了组织移植的需要。它还在术前使用,以便能够去除大面积的前额瘢痕并获得良好的美容效果。这种设备在眼部整形手术中的潜力令人兴奋。
