[Phasing and continuity of the treatment of thyroid eye disease in patients with Graves' disease].

 According to modern concepts, thyroid eye disease (TED) is an independent progressive autoimmune disease of the organ of vision, closely associated with the autoimmune pathology of the thyroid gland (TG), (ICD code - H06.2, proptosis in case of impaired thyroid function E05.0).

[Ocular involvement in Parry-Romberg syndrome].

Parry-Romberg syndrome (PRS) is a rare degenerative disease of unknown etiology, characterized by slow progressive hemifacial atrophy of the soft tissues (subcutaneous fat, muscles), cartilage and bones. Beside hemifacial atrophy, various ophthalmic and periocular manifestations of PRS has been described. Progressive enophthalmos and eyelid changes are only some of many other symptoms, as the disease can affect all layers of the eyeball.

[Transnasal endoscopic orbital decompression in the algorithm of surgical treatment of endocrine ophthalmopathy].

Objective: To develop an algorithm for the use of transnasal endoscopic orbital decompression (TEOD) in endocrine ophthalmopathy (EOP).

Material And Methods: The results of 225 TEODs are analyzed. 139 patients with EOP were under observation, who were divided into two groups.

[Experimental study of hyaluronic acid gel fillers biodegradation in orbit].

Introduction: Recently, hyaluronic acid gel (HAG) fillers were proposed as an effective alternative treatment option for surgical orbital volume augmentation. Several authors reported about long-standing effect of the filler.

Purpose: To assess the features of HAG biodegradation after intraorbital injection in experimental environment.

[Posttraumatic orbital defect correction with bone autografts].

The aim of the study was the assessment of safety of posttraumatic orbital defect correction with bone autografts. The study comprised 69 patients divided in 2 groups: 21 patients with isolated orbital floor and medial wall deformities and 48 patients with complex midface injuries. Membranous bone autografts were used for deformities correction along with soft tissues hypercorrection with a mix of bone chips and platelet rich plasms.

[The frequency of ophthalmologic manifestations of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's) and their relationship to systemic diseases].

Aim: To estimate the frequency of lesions in the organ of vision in granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) (Wegener's) and to determine their relationship to systemic diseases.

Subjects And Methods: The retrospective study enrolled 218 patients followed up at the E.M.

[The complications of transethmoidal decompressive orbitotomy associated with endocrine ophthalmopathy].

The objective of the present study was the analysis of the results of transethmoidal decompressive orbitotomy (TEDO) with the resection of the bone matrix of the medial and inferior orbital walls in the patients presenting with endocrine ophthalmopathy (EOP) with the purpose of reduction of the risk of development of this pathological conditions. A total of 51 patient with EOP at the stage of complete remission or pharmacotherapeutic compensation underwent transethmoidal decompressive medial orbitotomy in the ENT Clinic of 1 I.M.

[Takayasu's disease in an IgG4-positive patient with tuberculosis, pulmonary hemorrhage, recurrent myocarditis, and transient bilateral visual impairments].

Takayasu's disease (nonspecific aortoarteritis) affects the absolute majority of 20-40-year-old women; its most common manifestations include aortic arch branch lesions. The specific features of the described case is the male gender of the patient, signs of mesenchymal dysplasia, a concurrence of tuberculosis, pulmonary hemorrhage, and myocarditis at onset, the presence of IgG4, peculiar ocular symptomatology, and its rapid regression after initiation of therapy.

[Refractory form of orbital granulomatosis with polyangiitis: A clinical and morphological study].

Orbital granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's granulomatosis, GPA), which is characterized by granulomatous inflammation with small-vessel vasculitis, can develop in local and generalized forms of the disease. The introduction of current immunosuppressive therapy regimens has improved the prognosis of the disease; however, there are immunosuppressive treatment-refractory forms of GPA, the morphology of which has been inadequately investigated. The paper describes a clinical case of refractory GPA involving the orbit, as evidenced by histological and immunohistochemical examinations.

[Surgical rehabilitation of patients with thyroid eye disease: systematic approach].

Aim: to analyze the results of surgical treatment of patients with thyroid eye disease (TED), including the type of surgery, indications, and outcomes.

Material And Methods: Hundred thirty-nine patients with TED (112 females, 27 males) aged 45.8±13.

[Potentials of intraoperative navigation during balanced orbital bony decompression in thyroid eye disease (preliminary results)].

Unlabelled: Precise instrument localization is of great importance in orbital decompression surgery. Different navigation systems were designed to fulfill this task and gained wide acceptance.

Aim: to describe principal features and determine advantages of intraoperatively navigated orbital bony decompression.

[Ophthalmologic manifestation of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's granulomatosis)].

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), formerly earlier known as Wegener's granulomatosis, is primary system necrotizing vasculitis of small and medium-sized vessels, which is characterized by the formation of foci of granulomatous inflammation. One of the target organs in GPA is the organ of vision. Its affection may not only reduce quality of life, but also may lead to the severest complications even to fatal outcome.
