An 11-year-old woman reported with rhabdomyosarcoma of the right eye, with cranial involvement. The patient had received multimodal treatment comprising chemotherapy and orbital exenteration. Implant-retained orbital restoration was considered after a decade of the curative treatment. One implant was placed in the supraorbital ridge and the other implant, in the frontal process of the zygoma. Subsequently, implant-supported magnet-retained prosthesis was fabricated. |
