Ocular globe luxation under general anesthesia.

We present a case of ocular globe luxation after general anesthesia. Upon completion of the surgery, the upper eyelid was retracted to examine for conjunctival edema, which resulted in globe luxation. The posterior aspect of the globe was visualized and a small tethering white structure ("check ligament") was observed.

Removal of an orbital metallic foreign body to facilitate magnetic resonance imaging: technical case report.

Objective And Importance: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the imaging modality of choice for brain tumors and other lesions of the central nervous system. However, this procedure is contraindicated in patients with orbital metallic foreign bodies. In such cases, the usual clinical strategy is to manage the patient without the benefit of MRI scans and, instead, to rely on less sensitive imaging modalities in particular computed tomographic scanning.

Primary embryonal carcinoma of the orbit in a 10-month-old female: a seven-year follow-up.

Purpose: Extra-gonadal germ cell tumors (GCTs) are rare and can be highly aggressive. If correctly identified and treated with multimodality chemotherapy, their prognosis can be significantly improved. We examined a 10 month-old female with primary embryonal carcinoma of the orbit.
