Abstract

During the last 4 1/2 years a Kiel bone was inserted as implant in 53 patients after enucleation. Two times, the implant had to be removed. Recurring conjunctival wound dehiscence and ‘phantom-pain’ were the reasons. In 51 patients the Kiel bone was well tolerated and was invaded with fibrous tissue, as the histologic examination proved. Echographic characteristics, X-ray photographs and CT-scan appearance are described.
