The Orbitomalar Ligament: A Cleavage Plane in Oculofacial Trauma.

We describe an oculofacial injury phenotype manifesting as a cleavage plane following the orbitomalar ligament in 5 cases. Across these cases, curvilinear wounds followed the course of the orbitomalar ligament, running clean planes through orbicularis oculi down to the infraorbital rim and arcus marginalis. One case involved bilateral orbitomalar ligaments, and 1 case involved the inferior canaliculus.

Clinical characteristics and ultrasound biomicroscopic evaluation of anterior segment dysgenesis: a retrospective cross-sectional study.

Background: Anterior segment dysgenesis (ASD) encompasses a range of congenital disorders affecting the development of the eye's anterior segment, often leading to significant visual impairment and glaucoma. Although numerous studies have focused on the genetic basis of ASD, few have comprehensively compared the clinical features across ASD subtypes. This study aims to address this gap by describing and comparing the clinical characteristics and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) imaging features of various ASD subtypes in a Chinese tertiary medical center.

Congenital Bilateral Ectropion in Collodion Infants: A Case Series.

Collodion baby is a rare congenital condition marked by a parchment-like membrane covering the body, often leading to complications such as bilateral ectropion. This condition poses risks of exposure keratopathy and other ocular issues. We present a case series of five infants with congenital bilateral ectropion associated with collodion babies, all born prematurely.

Management of Eyelid Pathologies That Cause Corneal Lesions.

Corneal injuries, which make up 3% of emergency room visits, can vary from small scratches to exposure or trauma-related damage that might be fatal to vision. Mechanical trauma, diseases of the eyelids, neurotrophic abnormalities, and chemical burns are common causes. A thorough examination is necessary for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

Towards optimal management of lower eyelid malpositions: A systematic review of treatment effectiveness and safety.

Lower eyelid malposition, a commonly encountered eyelid disorder, is often linked to discomfort, visual disturbances, and cosmetic concerns. Various treatment modalities have been employed to address these conditions, but their effectiveness and safety remain subjects of debate.

Exploring the Versatility of Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty: A Retrospective Single-Center Study.

Background Transconjunctival blepharoplasty using the postseptal technique provides direct access to orbital fat, offering reduced risk of complications, such as ectropion, entropion, fat over-resection, and inferior oblique muscle palsy. This study aims to evaluate the clinical outcomes and safety of transconjunctival blepharoplasty using the postseptal technique, focusing on the incidence of postoperative complications, the recovery time, and the feasibility of combining ancillary procedures with this approach. Methods In this retrospective observational study, we analyzed the outcomes of 88 patients who underwent transconjunctival postseptal blepharoplasty at a private hospital in northern India between July 2022 and January 2024.

Adverse effects associated with the irresponsible use of phenol peeling - literature review.

Carbolic acid or phenol is considered a chemical agent that produces intense facial rejuvenation when used correctly, however, solutions containing this substance are dangerous and their action must be controlled. The aim of this study was to collect information on the adverse effects of the use of phenolic compounds for facial esthetic purposes. Phenol promotes the denaturation and coagulation of epidermal keratin proteins, deep chemical peels carried out with phenol, when well indicated and properly conducted, produce incomparable results, however, the ignorant use of these solutions can produce ectropion, keloids, and unsightly scars on the face and neck, in addition, systemic absorption is related to hepatorenal and cardiac toxicity.

Massive anal condyloma lata following lung transplantation due to cystic fibrosis: successful treatment with circular hemorrhoidectomy with mucosal bridges.

This case report presents the treatment of a 36-year-old male patient with massive anal condyloma lata following lung transplantation due to cystic fibrosis. The patient, under long-term immunosuppressive therapy, developed extensive wart-like lesions around the anal canal. A modified circular hemorrhoidectomy with mucosal bridges was performed to excise the affected tissue while preserving functional integrity.

Lower Lid Tightening Procedures: How and When.

Reconstructive Techniques Following Malignant Eyelid Tumour Excision-Our Experience.

: Malignant eyelid tumours present a considerable challenge in the field of ophthalmic oncology, necessitating a combination of precision oncological care and meticulous reconstruction to ensure the preservation of eyelid functionality and the maintenance of facial aesthetics. : This study presents a review of the outcomes of 167 patients who underwent eyelid reconstruction following the excision of primary non-melanocytic malignant tumours. The choice of reconstruction technique was dependent on a number of factors, including the stage of the tumour, its location, and the characteristics of the patient.

Periocular manifestations of blepharocheilodontic syndrome and their management: case series and literature review.

Purpose: Blepharocheilodontic (BCD) syndrome is a rare condition with eyelid ectropion, euryblepharon, lagophthalmos, congenital cleft lip/palate, and oligodontia. BCD syndrome is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder and has multiple associations with systemic diseases. We present three new cases of BCD syndrome and a literature review of the periocular manifestations of BCD and their management.
