Abstrakt: Background: Evaluation of the number of enucleations and eviscerations performed in Germany and the orbital implants used.
Method: Analysis of the quality reports of German ophthalmological clinics for the years 2012-2021 provided by the Federal Joint Committee (Gemeinsamer Bundesausschuss, G‑BA).
Results: Almost 10 times as many enucleations (8368) as eviscerations (975) are performed in Germany. After enucleation, alloplastic implants are used most frequently (44.6% alloplastic, no further specification, 30.0% alloplastic coated, no further specification; 14.1% microporous implants) and autologous dermis-fat grafts in 6.1% of the cases.
Conclusion: In Germany, significantly more enucleations than eviscerations are performed. Alloplastic orbital implants are preferred for primary reconstruction following enucleation.
