Treatment of Orbital Desmoid-type Fibromatosis With Sorafenib.

Desmoid-type fibromatosis is a rare tumor, particularly in the orbit, with fewer than 10 cases of primary orbital desmoid-type fibromatosis reported in the literature. The authors present a case of an infant who presented with rapid onset of OD proptosis, disc edema, and hyperopic shift who was found to have a retrobulbar desmoid-type fibromatosis. After initial biopsy, due to risk of vision loss with complete excision, the tumor was treated with sorafenib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

Outcomes of Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment Repair When Comparing Surgeon Continuity in a Team-Based Practice.

Background And Objective: To facilitate timely surgery and efficient use of operating room time, our practice uses a team-based approach so patients may undergo primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) surgery with a different surgeon instead of the diagnosing surgeon.

Patients And Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of 331 eyes that underwent RRD surgery. Patients were divided into two groups: RRD surgery performed by the diagnosing surgon, and RRD surgery performed by a different surgeon.

Silicone Scaffold Support Using a Bilayer Dermal Regeneration Matrix Template for Correction of Primary or Recurrent Eyelid Retraction.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a bilayer dermal regenerative matrix for primary or complex/recurrent eyelid retraction.

Methods: Retrospective review of patients undergoing eyelid retraction repair using the bilayer dermal regenerative matrix from 2005 to 2019. Nineteen eyelid surgeries from 15 patients were identified.
