This study evaluated the surgical results of frontalis suspension using expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) with two different surgical designs (open-type and closed-type). Methods: We reviewed the medical records of 96 patients (68 children and 28 adults) who underwent frontalis suspension surgery using ePTFE. Postoperative eyelid position, ptosis recurrence, and complications were recorded. Results: Twenty-eight out of 68 children and all 28 adults underwent closed-type frontalis suspension surgery, and 40 children underwent open-type surgery. The recurrence rate was 20% (8 of 40 eyelids) for children with closed-type surgery, and 2% (1 of 50 eyelids) for those with open-type surgery. There was a statistically significant difference in the recurrence rate between the two surgical methods in children (p = 0.011). The recurrence rate was 5% (2 of 40 eyelids) in adults who underwent the closed-type method. The recurrence rate after closed-type surgery was significantly different between the child and adult groups (p = 0.04). Conclusion: Open-type frontalis suspension surgery using ePTFE is preferable to closed-type surgery for children with upper eyelid ptosis. Closed-type surgery provides more favorable results in adults than in children. ? 2009 Formosan Medical Association & Elsevier. |
