Summary

Orbital exenteration involves removal of the entire orbital contents. This radical disfiguring procedure is typically reserved for life-threatening malignancies or severe orbital infection or inflammation not amenable to medical treatment. Appropriate preoperative evaluation and surgical planning is tailored to each patient and the underlying condition. Surgical techniques range from total exenteration to eyelid-sparing and subtotal exenteration. Postexenteration socket reconstruction can be achieved by using a skin graft, myocutaneous advancement flap, dermal substitute, free flap, or a combination thereof. Patients can subsequently be fitted with an oculofacial prosthesis for improved cosmesis and comfort.
