Safety and Biocompatibility of a New High-Density Polyethylene-Based Spherical Integrated Porous Orbital Implant: An Experimental Study in Rabbits

Figure 2

Macroscopic findings at 90 days after orbital implantation. After cutting the eyes through the sagittal plane, the MEDPOR implant (a) appeared as an aggregate of small spherical granules, while OCULFIT I (b), as well as OCULFIT II, was more compact and composed of multiple microgranules. Peripheral ingrowth of host vasculature and soft tissue was present in both materials. Scale bars: 12 mm.
