SURGICAL TACTICS FOR TRAUMATIC INJURY OF MIDFACE ON THE BASIS OF RETICULAR TITANIUM NICKELIDE IMPLANTS

Abstract

The paper describes experience of 48 surgical procedures for midface injuries with orbital floor fractures. The reticular titanium nickelide-based alloy made in Tomsk University has been used to replace this defect and restore the eye-pit. There were no post-operative complications caused by suppuration or implant shift. As reported, the reticular titanium nickelide allows to raise the efficiency of surgical procedures on patients with traumatic fractures of midface due to material properties, for example, bioinertia, superelasticity and reticular structure, ensures ‘tissue ingrowth’ and, therefore, prevents any shifts of implant without additional fixation.
