Two-Stage Rapid Orbital Exenteration Reconstruction
Functional Benefits
Orbital exenteration is a complex surgical procedure used to treat aggressive cancers affecting the eye socket.
Dr. Mancini contributed to a two-stage rapid reconstruction technique designed to allow patients to begin radiation therapy sooner, which can be critical for controlling aggressive tumors.
This surgical approach focuses on reconstructing the orbital area quickly and effectively so that cancer treatment can proceed without delay.
The innovation was described in:
Patel SY, Tamboli DA, Mancini R. (2018) Two-Stage Rapid Exenteration Reconstruction.
Who May Require This Procedure?
Patients diagnosed with aggressive orbital cancers may require complex reconstructive surgery as part of their treatment plan.
