Endoscopic Orbital Clearance/Debridement: A Potential Substitute for Orbital Exenteration in Rhino-orbital Mucormycosis.
Int Arch Otorhinolaryngol
January 2025
Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Faculty of Medicine, Zagazig University, Egypt.
Mucormycosis is an aggressive, lethal fungal infection affecting the nasal and paranasal territory in immunocompromised patients. Orbital involvement is not uncommon and may require orbital exenteration. The management of orbital involvement in invasive fungal sinusitis is challenging, ranging from conservative retrobulbar amphotericin B injection in the early stages to orbital exenteration in late stages.

Clinical Unit for Diagnostic Imaging, University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna, Austria.
Background: Malignant dysgerminomas are infrequently reported ovarian neoplasms in animals, especially in exotic pets (non-traditional companion animals [NTCAs]). In the few published case reports on reptilian species, examples are primarily postmortem without antemortem (clinical) assessment.
Patient Presentation: An adult, 13-year-old, spayed female inland bearded dragon (Pogona vitticeps) presented with lethargy, a right-sided head tilt, unilateral exophthalmos and ventrotemporal strabismus on the right eye.
Minimally invasive technique to facilitate ultrasound-guided removal of migrating foreign bodies: eight cases (2022).
J Small Anim Pract
November 2024
Bristol Vet Specialists, Bristol, UK.
Objectives: Migrating foreign bodies is common in cats and dogs and can be challenging to retrieve. The aim of this study is to describe a minimally invasive ultrasound-guided technique for the removal of migrating foreign bodies.
Materials And Methods: Cases were retrospectively recruited from a single referral hospital.

Article Synopsis
- A new condition called invasive Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess syndrome (IKPLAS) affects the liver and can spread to other parts of the body, leading to severe complications like endogenous endophthalmitis (EE) and isolated optic neuritis (ON).
- A rare case of a 33-year-old man developed isolated retrobulbar optic neuritis after experiencing severe pneumonia, where cerebrospinal fluid analysis indicated elevated protein levels but negative tests for specific antibodies.
- The patient was successfully treated with intravenous methylprednisolone and immunoglobulin, suggesting that the optic neuritis was a para-infectious reaction to the Klebsiella pneumoniae infection, potentially causing damage to the optic nerve and visual impairment
Valsalva-associated orbital compartment syndrome in the setting of frontoethmoidal mucocele and orbital cellulitis.
Orbit
May 2024
Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, Carver College of Medicine, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa, USA.
Valsalva-associated orbital compartment syndrome in the setting of orbital cellulitis, mucocele, or subperiosteal abscess has not been previously reported. A previously healthy girl presented with orbital cellulitis complicated by a subperiosteal abscess and frontoethmoidal mucocele. On the day of her planned orbitotomy and endoscopic sinus surgery, she developed a Valsalva-associated retrobulbar hemorrhage and elevated intraocular pressure after crying during a blood glucose fingerstick.
