One eyeball of experimental rabbits was enucleated in routine procedure, and then implanted the biocative glass ceramic (BGC). No rejection was observed during the postoperation period. After three months of implantation, they were examined with ultrasound, and a venous-flow-like spectra was detected in the ceramic implant. After six months of implantation, the implans were examined histologically; the ingrowth fibrovascular tissue filled the 90% gaps of the implant. The results suggest that the bioactive glass ceramic implants made in China possess acceptable histocompatibility.

D017233 Orbit Evisceration The surgical removal of the contents of the orbit. This includes the eyeball, blood vessels, muscles, fat, nerve supply, and periosteum. It should be differentiated from EYE EVISCERATION which removes the inner contents of the eye, leaving the sclera intact.

D019736 Prostheses and Implants Artificial substitutes for body parts, and materials inserted into tissue for functional, cosmetic, or therapeutic purposes. Prostheses can be functional, as in the case of artificial arms and legs, or cosmetic, as in the case of an artificial eye. Implants, all surgically inserted or grafted into the body, tend to be used therapeutically. IMPLANTS, EXPERIMENTAL is available for those used experimentally.
