PURPOSE: We present our experience of titanium-milled two-piece patient-specific implants (PSIs) for primary reconstructions of extensive orbital floor and medial wall fractures (EOFMFs) and evaluate their postoperative functional and aesthetic outcomes in relation to commercially available implants. METHODS: We included all patients with primary reconstructions ( 2 mm, significant diplopia and poor implant position were more frequent in patients with commercial implants than two-piece PSIs. None of the patients with a good overall implant position had any significant postoperative symptoms. CONCLUSION: Extensive orbital fracture reconstructions are somewhat rare, and surgical treatment is associated with a high rate of complications and postoperative symptoms. Titanium-milled two-piece PSIs are well suited for primary reconstructions of EOFMFs, as they lead to more precise reconstructions and fewer postoperative symptoms than commercially available implants.
