Recurrent superior orbital fissure syndrome associated with VEXAS syndrome.

Purpose: To describe a case of recurrent orbital inflammation and superior orbital fissure syndrome associated with VEXAS (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, auto-inflammatory, somatic) syndrome.

Case Presentation: VEXAS syndrome is a recently identified multi-system inflammatory disease of late adult onset. The authors describe the case of a 76-year-old man who presented with recurrent episodes of orbital inflammation, with superior orbital fissure syndrome, dacryoadenitis and orbital myositis.

Periocular basal cell carcinoma recurrence following surgical treatment: Safe surveillance time.

Background: To report the rate of primary periocular BCC recurrence following surgical excision in low-risk and high-risk BCCs, and to propose long term follow up guidelines.

Methods: Retrospective case series of primary BCC treated with surgical excision (Mohs micrographic surgery [MMS], wide local excision [WLE] or fast paraffin excision) who have histologically-confirmed BCC subtype and histologically-measured tumour clearance margins.

Results: 77 patients (78 eyelids) were included.

An 82-year-old woman with macular degeneration receiving intravitreal bevacizumab, presented with 5-months history of muco-purulent blepharo-kerato-conjunctivitis, resistant to multiple topical antibiotics. Visual acuities were 20/25 right and 20/30 left.
