Abstract
It is important to perfect the enucleation technique, especially in cases of intraocular malignancy, to obtain an adequate amount of tissue for histologic analysis and to cause a minimum amount of trauma to the remaining orbital structures. This study describes the use of a new device for ocular globe enucleation. The new instrument has been employed in 16 consecutive enucleation procedures with no complications. The new device has promoted good division of the optic nerve and allowed severing of the optic nerve stump at a length of more than 10 mm.
