Notes:
JUMAT orbital implant was created considering the good
qualities of previous implants and improving their flaws.
To start the fabrication I looked for material that was easy
to get in the market and with low cost. JUMAT is made with
hypoallergenic high-density polymethylmethacrylate. It is
made in different sizes, from 10 mm to 22 mm. This is really
helpful for the surgeon as he counts with different sizes at
the operation room and can select on site the most suitable
one. This is essential for the successful adaptation of the
implant. JUMAT Orbital implant has multiple perforations
of different diameters, being the principal one, the one
that marks the implant axis and crosses it completely. This
perforation has larger diameter in the back area and smaller
in the front one. All other perforations connect with the
principal one and interconnect among themselves too. This
system of perforations is essential to foster an excellent
vascularization. Within ten days of surgery the patient
is ready to start with the testing for the adaptation of a
ocular prosthesis. As from 2010 to present time, 235 JUMAT
implants have been implanted with only two expulsions
reported. These cases were studied in detail. It was observed
that both cases involved children with retinoblastoma. They
were enucleated and were implanted with JUMAT. These
two children were derived to Garrahan Hospital in Buenos
Aires, leading Pediatric school hospital in Argentina. They
were under radiotherapy and chemotherapy. These two
processes avoided tissue vascularization by necropsy, which
determined the expulsion of the implant. JUMAT stands
out for the material made of, low cost, various implant
dimensions, surgeon possibility to choose exact measure
during operation and short time of vascularization and ocular
prosthesis adaptation.
