T-Shaped Wedge Resection of the Upper Eyelid: An Alternative to the Pentagonal Wedge.
Ophthalmic Plast Reconstr Surg
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Columbia University Medical Center, New York, New York.
Purpose: To report the experience with an alternative to the upper eyelid pentagonal wedge resection technique which results in improved cosmesis due to a greater alignment of incisions with relaxed skin tension lines.
Methods: A retrospective review of all patients who underwent the T-shaped wedge resection by the authors from 2009 to 2017. A horizontal eyelid crease incision is made across the upper eyelid skin.
Impact of Pterygium Excision Combined with Autologous Limbal Stem Cell Transplantation on Microvascular Density, Tear Film Stability, and Corneal Wound Healing.
Ann Ital Chir
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Affiliated Hospital 2 of Nantong University, 226001 Nantong, Jiangsu, China.
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of pterygium excision combined with autologous limbal stem cell transplantation on microvascular density, tear film stability, and corneal wound healing in the management of pterygium.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 317 patients with pterygium who underwent treatment between January 2021 and January 2024. Patients were divided into a control group (pterygium excision alone, n = 161) and a study group (pterygium excision combined with autologous limbal stem cell transplantation, n = 156) based on the surgical approach.
Lateral Tarsorrhaphy and Fixation on the Orbital Ligament to Correct Macroblepharon in Dogs: 77 Palpebral Fissures.
Vet Ophthalmol
January 2025
Department for Companion Animals and Horses, Ophthalmology Service, University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna, Austria.
Purpose: To describe a surgical method for correcting lower lid entropion, lateral canthal entropion, and macroblepharon.
Methods: Lid margins were incised at a 45° angle, and lateral lid margins and a rhomboid shaped piece of skin were resected based on the degree of macroblepharon. Subcutaneous tissue was sutured with absorbable sutures and anchored to the orbital ligament with a non-absorbable suture to maintain lateral canthal position.
A Stepwise Approach to Surgical Decision-making for Lower Eyelid Ectropion: Insights from a Retrospective Study.
Aesthet Surg J
December 2024
Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine Affiliated Ninth People's Hospital, Shanghai, China.
Background: Cicatricial lower-eyelid ectropion is a serious complication resulting from undesired lower lid blepharoplasty or impaired wound healing. Surgical treatment for ectropion is challenging for oculoplastic surgeons due to the unpredictability of surgical outcome and the difficulty of surgical design.
Objectives: The authors aimed to fully describe the surgical decision-making strategy for cicatricial ectropion, and to potentially enhance treatment outcomes.
A review of Secondary Intention Healing in Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery: Part 1.
Clin Exp Dermatol
January 2025
Department of Dermatology, St Michaels Clinic, Shrewsbury, UK.
Secondary intention healing (SIH) describes wounds healing from the base upwards, without direct closure. This starts with granulation of the wound, followed by re-epithelialisation and contraction. The surgeon and patient need to weigh up advantages and disadvantages of SIH versus other reconstruction methods.
