Zygomatic‑orbital complex (ZOC) fractures represent one of the most frequent injuries of the midface and are commonly associated with functional and aesthetic impairment. The present study evaluates clinical manifestations and surgical outcomes after reconstruction using titanium mesh and porous polyethylene implants. A comparative clinical analysis of 94 patients was performed. Titanium mesh demonstrated superior restoration of orbital volume, ocular motility, and facial symmetry with lower complication rates. The findings support titanium mesh as a reliable option for reconstruction of ZOC defects.
