An ileostomy that maintains its protrusion in a stable manner can be fashioned by the technique of Brooke. However, in a significant number of patients, recession or prolapse of the ileostomy occurs, tending to displace an appliance. A safe and effective technique is described whereby the ileostomy is stabilized without danger. A ribbon of fascia, obtained from the abdominal wall, is passed through the mesentery adjacent to the bowel between vessels, at its point of exit from the peritoneum. It is neither wrapped around the bowel nor sutured to it. The ends of the fascia are securely sutured to the peritoneum and transversalis fascia. This secures the position of the ileostomy without the danger of fistula from suturing the bowel wall. It may be used for recession or prolapse. It may be supplemented by passing additional fascia or suture elsewhere in the mesentery or into other available tissue.

Purpose: This case report presents an event of retrobulbar hemorrhage (RH) occurring during the initial stage of strabismus surgery after incision of the conjunctiva and Tenon's capsule.

Observation: Significant bleeding with subsequent proptosis was observed intraoperatively after the incision of conjunctiva and Tenon's capsule during routine strabismus surgery on the medial rectus muscle in a 5-year-old boy. Intravenous mannitol was administered intraoperatively and surgery was completed as planned.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C (trab MMC) in patients with post-traumatic angle recession glaucoma, focusing on 32 phakic eyes that had no previous eye surgeries.
  • - Results indicated a significant reduction in intraocular pressure (IOP) one year post-surgery, with complete success rates of 88% at one year and 77% between two to five years, along with minimal complications.
  • - The findings suggest that trab MMC is a safe and effective treatment for this condition, but also highlight the need to monitor the other eye for potential glaucoma development.

Background: Lower blepharoplasty is one of the most common cosmetic rejuvenation procedures. Occasionally, adverse effects of the operation, ranging from operated and somewhat flattened unnatural look of the lower eyelid region to more severe cases of ectropion, retraction leading to functional disabilities, further compound the problem. The author has developed a technique focusing on two aspects in terms of the outcome of the operation in developing a technique that ensures a uniformly consistent and esthetically perceptible result.

Purpose Of Review: The aim of the present article is to describe the pathophysiology of esotropia associated with high myopia, commonly known as heavy eye syndrome, and discuss the preoperative evaluation and surgical options in these complex patients.

Recent Findings: Numerous studies have looked to determine the cause of esotropia in patients with high myopia. Orbital imaging has shown a nasal displacement of the superior rectus muscle and an inferior displacement of the lateral rectus muscle.
