Question

I would like to know what are your experiences regarding removal of a medpor implant and correcting asymmetry after trauma with implant?

Answer

I have removed and replaced Medpor implants, but not after trauma with implant.

I cannot really see why this would make a difference unless the area is significantly distorted by a fracture that affected bone and implant, and would show as a significantly abnormal anatomy on a CT scan.
