Abstract

This study includes 6 interesting cases who developed complications after reconstructive surgery due to periorbital mass excision. Patients' data were evaluated retrospectively. Three patients with different ages,who developed ecchymoses postoperatively, were followed up. The first patient was 17 years old and dermoid cyst excision was performed on the lateral side of orbita at the eye brow level. This patient did not have any systemic disease and was simply followed up. Other two patients were at advanced age and both of them developed ecchymoses bilaterally.. Another patient was also at advanced age and developed necrosis following reconstruction with skin flap. In this case, by graft application complete healing was succeeded uneventfully.. Two other cases drew attention due to scar development after primary suturation. According to the degree of scar formation, surgery or follow up was performed. Complications could be seen even after well planned and performed periocular reconstructions. Close follow up and abrupt treatment are essential.
