Post-Exenteration Orbital Wall Reconstruction With Paramedian Forehead Flap

Orbital exenteration is a mutilating surgery that involves the total removal of the orbital contents with partial or total excision of the eyelids. It is usually associated with an extremely disfiguring cosmetic outcome which requires some degree of reconstruction before an artificial eye can be pla...
