Purpose: The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a relatively novel biomarker to distinguish between acute stresses. This study was performed determine whether the NLR may discern infectious orbital maladies from idiopathic inflammation (IOI). Methods: calculated by review of initial blood draws adult patients who presented emergency department at single academic medical center. Statistical comparisons were identify significance these results. Results: Ten with IOI, 12 necrotizing...
Purpose: The authors sought to examine relationships between CT metrics derived via an automated method and clinical parameters of extraocular muscle changes in thyroid eye disease (TED). Methods: images 204 orbits the setting TED were analyzed with segmentation tool developed at institution. Labels applied orbital structures interest on study images, which then registered against a previously established atlas manually indexed from 35 healthy individuals. Point-wise correspondences compared...
To describe the experience of 4 oculoplastic surgeons with porcine bladder matrix for periocular anterior lamella and donor site skin defects either as stand-alone treatment or in conjunction other reconstructive procedures. The authors hypothesized that defect size location influence requirement additional treatments ancillary procedures.Following Institutional Review Board approval, conducted a retrospective review 17 patients treated at 2 practices between 2016 2018. Powdered was applied...
Purpose: The authors report a technique of local application anti-metabolite and corticosteroid mixture in the orbit for treatment thyroid orbitopathy with moderate-severe inflammation muscle involvement. Methods: Patients one orbital surgeon seen between March 2019 May 2020 active eye disease restrictive strabismus were considered myopathic component disease. A 1 ml 5-FU 50 mg/ml, 0.25 triamcinolone 40 lidocaine 2% is injected through skin using 25-gauge, 1.5-inch needle into adjacent to...
Purpose: The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an important biomarker in a variety of systemic conditions, though its role orbital disease remains unclear. We sought to investigate the utility NLR distinguishing cellulitis (OC) from preseptal (PC) pediatric population. Methods: earliest available NLRs immunocompetent patients who presented emergency department with OC and PC were calculated single institution’s database. Demographic interventional data related each encounter also...
Intraosseous hemangiomas are rare bony neoplasms that infrequently develop in the calvarium or facial bones. Due to their highly vascular nature, biopsy resection of these tumors can present a surgical challenge, with reports significant blood loss during tumor resection. Traditional intraosseous often includes use high speed oscillating sagittal saws. Ultrasonic aspirators, which spare adjacent soft-tissue structures and minimize loss, have been successfully used firm soft tissue masses...
Purpose: To determine whether the age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (age-CCI) in sino-orbital fungal disease patients correlates with disease-specific mortality. Methods: Hospital billing systems at 2 academic institutions were queried for ICD-9, ICD-10, and CPT codes used who also had orbital significant visual loss. Thirty-two Institution A 18 B met inclusion criteria of microbiologic or pathologic confirmation infection completion inpatient ophthalmology evaluation. Patients without...
Ablepharon-macrostomia syndrome (AMS) and Barber-Say (BSS) are congenital ectodermal dysplasias associated with mutations in the TWIST2 gene. Among ophthalmic anomalies that occur these syndromes, underdevelopment of anterior lamella eyelid is a defining feature. Reports mosaic expression extremely rare, only five confirmed or suspected cases described to date. Mosaic variants correlated less severe phenotype than reported for typical BSS AMS. Abnormal development appears be common feature...
