We report the use of the Harms trabeculotome to facilitate 360° microcatheter advancement during illuminated microcatheter-assisted circumferential trabeculotomy (IMCT) ab externo in a 3-month-old infant with bilateral primary congenital glaucoma who required repeat surgery. The illuminated microcatheter was advanced 270°, from 9 to 6 o'clock; however, a focal blockage occurred, and, despite viscodilation, further advancement was not possible. The surgeon introduced a right Harms trabeculotome in the opposite direction, counterclockwise through the same scleral flap.

Nevus sebaceous (NS) is a congenital hamartoma characterized by the presence of skin structures, including the epidermis, sebaceous glands, and hair follicles. NS predominantly occurs on the scalp and has the potential to give rise to secondary tumors, with a small proportion being malignant; the most frequently observed malignant tumor associated with NS is basal cell carcinoma. In this report, we retrospectively present four cases of sebaceous nevus on the scalp complicated by basal cell carcinoma.
