Use of GORE-TEX (polytetrafluoroethylene) in the anophthalmic socket.

S Morax.   

Abstract

The GORE-TEX soft tissue patch is composed of large open spaces surrounded by polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) fibers connected to nodules of solid PTFE. It was used in 12 oculoplastic surgery patients. Primary and secondary spherical silicone implants were wrapped with a GORE-TEX patch and implanted into Tenon's capsule. This study reports our first results using this versatile material.
