Article Synopsis
- - The study examines the clinical and histopathologic characteristics of eyelid cutaneous horns in five pediatric patients, with a focus on information from patient records and literature review.
- - Results showed that all lesions resolved either surgically or conservatively, with the average patient age being 6.6 years, and no signs of malignancy were found during histologic evaluations.
- - The findings suggest that pediatric eyelid cutaneous horns are linked to inflammatory conditions like hordeolum or chalazion and are generally benign, differing from adult cases that often involve neoplastic changes.
The role of inflammatory periocular, ocular surface and systemic diseases in involutional ectropion.

Article Synopsis
- This study explored the link between involutional ectropion (an eyelid condition) and chronic inflammatory diseases affecting the eyelid and ocular surface, along with other systemic diseases.
- Researchers conducted a case-control study using medical records from Clalit Health Services in Israel, comparing patients with involutional ectropion to control groups with cataracts and other eye conditions, while controlling for age, sex, and ethnicity.
- Findings showed significant associations between involutional ectropion and various inflammatory diseases (like blepharitis and chronic conjunctivitis) as well as systemic conditions such as hypertension and dyslipidaemia, indicating these factors may be independent risk contributors to the eyelid condition.

Article Synopsis
- - The study examined the link between Demodex mite infestation and the occurrence of primary and recurrent chalazia in patients.
- - Out of 68 patients with chalazia, 63.2% showed Demodex infestation, with a stronger connection found in recurrent cases (50% infested) compared to primary cases (only 18.5% infested).
- - The results highlighted a significant positive correlation (rθ=+0.665, P<.05) between recurrent chalazia and Demodex infestation, while no such correlation was found for primary chalazia.
