Tear inflammatory cytokine profiles in orbital inflammatory disease.

Exp Eye Res

December 2024

Department of Ophthalmology, The Royal Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia.

Tear inflammatory cytokines are a novel biomarker studied in a range of ocular surface diseases, periorbital and orbital conditions. This single-centre prospective study between 2022 and 2024 aims to characterise tear cytokine profiles (Interleukin-1β [IL-1β], IL-2, IL-6, Interferon-γ [IFN-γ] and Tumour Necrosis Factor-α [TNF- α]) in orbital inflammatory disease (OID). OID patients had pre-treatment tear collection via micropipette, and cytokine analysis via multiplex bead array analysis.

Introduction: Tolosa-Hunt syndrome (THS) is a disorder related to inflammation of cavernous sinus and superior orbital fissure that usually presents with ophthalmoplegia and oculomotor nerve palsies. The etiology of the syndrome is unknown and the diagnosis is set by exclusion of other clinical conditions that manifest in a similar way. Intracranial aneurysms, such as intracavernous ones, should be included in the differential diagnosis as they can compress cranial nerves leading to similar clinical presentation.

Clinicopathological Features and Management of Orbital Cholesterol Granuloma.

J Curr Ophthalmol

August 2024

Department of Ocular Plastic and Orbital Disease, Tianjin Eye Hospital, Tianjin Eye Institute, Tianjin, China.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates orbital cholesterol granuloma (CG), focusing on patient features, treatment, and outcomes through a review of 12 cases treated at Tianjin Eye Hospital from 2002-2020.
  • The patient group was predominantly male (10 out of 12), with a mean age of 34.5 years, and symptoms included proptosis, swelling, and eye movement limitations; imaging showed well-circumscribed lesions with extensive bone erosion.
  • All patients underwent surgery (mainly lateral orbitotomy) with no vision loss or recurrences reported during a follow-up averaging nearly 80 months, indicating successful management of CG.

Objective: Superficial temporal artery (STA) pseudoaneurysms, characterized by arterial wall defects leading to blood leakage into perivascular tissues, present as pulsatile edematous masses, often originating from trauma or iatrogenic causes. Although rare (<1% of vascular lesions), anticoagulation agent use may contribute to their increasing incidence.

Methods: Traditional surgical ligation and resection have been standard, but the advent of endovascular techniques offers minimally invasive alternatives that mitigate surgical risks, especially in patients with multiple medical comorbidities.

Giant molluscum contagiosum with preseptal cellulitis.

J AAPOS

October 2024

Department of Ophthalmology, The Children's Hospital at Westmead, Sydney Australia; Department of Ophthalmology, Sydney and Sydney Eye Hospital, Sydney, Australia; Department of Ophthalmology, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia; Save Sight Institute, Central Clinical School, Discipline of Clinical Ophthalmology and Eye Health, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia.

Article Synopsis
  • Molluscum contagiosum (MC) is a common, non-threatening viral skin infection primarily affecting children and certain adults, including those with weakened immune systems.
  • The article discusses two rare pediatric cases of giant periorbital MC lesions accompanied by preseptal cellulitis.
  • In the first case, a 9-month-old boy underwent surgical excision after a diagnosis of MC, while the second case involved an 18-month-old girl who was treated with antibiotics and surgery.
