An African boy with Parry Romberg syndrome previously treated elsewhere reported to our hospital with a complaint of excruciating pain near his right eye. He had undergone reconstruction of his orbit (eye socket bone) elsewhere using MEDPOR few months back which had now become infected and was extruding through the skin close to his right eye. There was pus discharge and caused him severe pain.
Maxillofacial Surgeon Dr. S.M. Balaji successfully removed the extruding, infected MEDPORE from the orbit. The surgical site was sutured and he was put on medication to treat the infection. By timely removal of the failed MEDPOR and controlling the infection, the serious risk of his vision getting affected has been averted.
