Clinical manifestations may include decreased visual acuity and contrast sensitivity, impaired color vision, and an afferent pupillary defect.
Tomography, Emission-Computed, Single-Photon
A method of computed tomography that uses radionuclides which emit a single photon of a given energy. The camera is rotated 180 or 360 degrees around the patient to capture images at multiple positions along the arc. The computer is then used to reconstruct the transaxial, sagittal, and coronal images from the 3-dimensional distribution of radionuclides in the organ. The advantages of SPECT are that it can be used to observe biochemical and physiological processes as well as size and volume of the organ. The disadvantage is that, unlike positron-emission tomography where the positron-electron annihilation results in the emission of 2 photons at 180 degrees from each other, SPECT requires physical collimation to line up the photons, which results in the loss of many available photons and hence degrades the image.

Carcinoma, Adenoid Cystic
Carcinoma characterized by bands or cylinders of hyalinized or mucinous stroma separating or surrounded by nests or cords of small epithelial cells. When the cylinders occur within masses of epithelial cells, they give the tissue a perforated, sievelike, or cribriform appearance. Such tumors occur in the mammary glands, the mucous glands of the upper and lower respiratory tract, and the salivary glands. They are malignant but slow-growing, and tend to spread locally via the nerves. (Dorland, 27th ed)

Exotropia
A form of ocular misalignment where the visual axes diverge inappropriately. For example, medial rectus muscle weakness may produce this condition as the affected eye will deviate laterally upon attempted forward gaze. An exotropia occurs due to the relatively unopposed force exerted on the eye by the lateral rectus muscle, which pulls the eye in an outward direction.

Visual acuity can also be influenced by brightness, color, and contrast.
Neurofibromatosis 1
An autosomal dominant inherited disorder (with a high frequency of spontaneous mutations) that features developmental changes in the nervous system, muscles, bones, and skin, most notably in tissue derived from the embryonic NEURAL CREST. Multiple hyperpigmented skin lesions and subcutaneous tumors are the hallmark of this disease. Peripheral and central nervous system neoplasms occur frequently, especially OPTIC NERVE GLIOMA and NEUROFIBROSARCOMA. NF1 is caused by mutations which inactivate the NF1 gene (GENES, NEUROFIBROMATOSIS 1) on chromosome 17q. The incidence of learning disabilities is also elevated in this condition. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1014-18) There is overlap of clinical features with NOONAN SYNDROME in a syndrome called neurofibromatosis-Noonan syndrome. Both the PTPN11 and NF1 gene products are involved in the SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION pathway of Ras (RAS PROTEINS).

Ruptured aneurysm of the orbitofrontal artery associated with dural arteriovenous malformation in the anterior cranial fossa--case report. (1/749)

A 27-year-old male presented with a rare association of a ruptured orbitofrontal artery aneurysm and a dural arteriovenous malformation (DAVM) fed by both ethmoidal arteries, manifestation as severe headache, nausea, and vomiting. Computed tomography revealed a hematoma within the right frontal lobe and diffuse subarachnoid hemorrhage. The aneurysm was clipped successfully and the hematoma was evacuated. After an uneventful postoperative course, the patient was referred for gamma knife radiosurgery to treat the DAVM. In this case, the DAVM was asymptomatic and pathogenetically unrelated to the aneurysm, which demanded urgent treatment.  (+info)

Development of an animal model of autoimmune thyroid eye disease. (2/749)

In previous studies we have transferred thyroiditis to naive BALB/c and NOD mice with human thyrotropin (TSH) receptor (TSHR)-primed splenocytes. Because the TSHR has been implicated in the pathogenesis of thyroid eye disease (TED) we have examined the orbits of recipients of TSHR-primed T cells, generated using a TSHR fusion protein or by genetic immunization. In the NOD mice, 25 of 26 animals treated with TSHR-primed T cells developed thyroiditis with considerable follicular destruction, numerous activated and CD8+ T cells, and immunoreactivity for IFN-gamma. Thyroxine levels were reduced. Thyroiditis was not induced in controls. None of the NOD animals developed any orbital pathology. Thirty-five BALB/c mice received TSHR-primed spleen cells. Thyroiditis was induced in 60-100% and comprised activated T cells, B cells, and immunoreactivity for IL-4 and IL-10. Autoantibodies to the receptor were induced, including TSH binding inhibiting Igs. A total of 17 of 25 BALB/c orbits displayed changes consisting of accumulation of adipose tissue, edema caused by periodic acid Schiff-positive material, dissociation of the muscle fibers, the presence of TSHR immunoreactivity, and infiltration by lymphocytes and mast cells. No orbital changes or thyroiditis were observed in control BALB/c mice. We have induced orbital pathology having many parallels with human TED, only in BALB/c mice, suggesting that a Th2 autoimmune response to the TSHR may be a prerequisite for the development of TED.  (+info)

CT examination of the head of the Baikal seal (Phoca sibirica). (3/749)

We carried out a computerised tomographic (CT) examination to elucidate the modifications in the head related to orbital enlargement in the Baikal seal. Transverse CT images showed that (1) the external frontal contours and the frontal sinuses are compressed medially and ventrally by the orbital enlargement; (2) the caudal part of the nasal cavity and nasopharynx are compacted ventrally; and (3) the cranial cavity is displaced caudally. The neurocranium is obviously separated from the facial part in the transverse plane at the caudal region of the orbit. The disposition of the mandible, zygomatic arch, temporal bone, and the masseter, temporal, digastric and pterygoid muscles is changed by the enlarged orbit in the 3-dimensional reorganisation of the head in this species. It is suggested that adaptation for the Lake Baikal environment primarily resulted in orbital enlargement, and that the altered orbital design may subsequently have influenced the form and function of the masticatory and respiratory system.  (+info)

The role of octreoscan in thyroid eye disease. (4/749)

Until recently there was no imaging technique available which could demonstrate pathological changes in orbital tissues and could be regarded as a reliable measure of inflammation in thyroid eye disease (TED). Pentetreotide (a synthetic derivative of somatostatin) labelled with 111In has been used to localize tumours which possess surface or membrane receptors for somatostatin in vivo using a gamma camera (1). This technique visualizes somatostatin receptors in endocrine-related tumours in vivo and predicts the inhibitory effect of the somatostatin analogue octreotide on hormone secretion by the tumours (1). By applying 111In-DTPA-d-Phe octreotide scintigraphy (octreoscan), accumulation of the radionuclide was also detected in both the thyroid and orbit of patients with Graves' disease (2-4). If peak activity in the orbit 5h after injection of radiolabelled octreotide is set at 100%, a decrease to 40+/-4% is found at 24h, significantly different from the decrease in blood pool radioactivity, which is 15+/-4% at 24h. Accumulation of the radionuclide is most probably due to the presence in the orbital tissue of activated lymphocytes bearing somatostatin receptors (5). Alternative explanations are binding to receptors on other cell types (e.g. myoblasts, fibroblasts or endothelial cells) or local blood pooling due to venous stasis by the autoimmune orbital inflammation.  (+info)

Dissociable neural responses to facial expressions of sadness and anger. (5/749)

Previous neuroimaging and neuropsychological studies have investigated the neural substrates which mediate responses to fearful, disgusted and happy expressions. No previous studies have investigated the neural substrates which mediate responses to sad and angry expressions. Using functional neuroimaging, we tested two hypotheses. First, we tested whether the amygdala has a neural response to sad and/or angry facial expressions. Secondly, we tested whether the orbitofrontal cortex has a specific neural response to angry facial expressions. Volunteer subjects were scanned, using PET, while they performed a sex discrimination task involving static grey-scale images of faces expressing varying degrees of sadness and anger. We found that increasing intensity of sad facial expression was associated with enhanced activity in the left amygdala and right temporal pole. In addition, we found that increasing intensity of angry facial expression was associated with enhanced activity in the orbitofrontal and anterior cingulate cortex. We found no support for the suggestion that angry expressions generate a signal in the amygdala. The results provide evidence for dissociable, but interlocking, systems for the processing of distinct categories of negative facial expression.  (+info)

Glaucoma patients demonstrate faulty autoregulation of ocular blood flow during posture change. (6/749)

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Autoregulation of blood flow during posture change is important to ensure consistent organ circulation. The purpose of this study was to compare the change in retrobulbar ocular blood flow in glaucoma patients with normal subjects during supine and upright posture. METHODS: 20 open angle glaucoma patients and 20 normal subjects, similar in age and sex distribution, were evaluated. Blood pressure, intraocular pressure, and retrobulbar blood velocity were tested after 30 minutes of sitting and again after 30 minutes of lying. Retrobulbar haemodynamic measures of peak systolic velocity (PSV), end diastolic velocity (EDV), and resistance index (RI) were obtained in the ophthalmic and central retinal arteries using colour Doppler imaging (CDI). RESULTS: When changing from the upright to supine posture, normal subjects demonstrated a significant increase in OA EDV (p = 0.016) and significant decrease in OA RI (p = 0.0006) and CRA RI (p = 0.016). Glaucoma patients demonstrated similar changes in OA measures of EDV (p = 0.02) and RI (p = 0.04), but no change in CRA measures. CONCLUSION: Glaucoma patients exhibit faulty autoregulation of central retinal artery blood flow during posture change.  (+info)

Orbitofrontal cortex and representation of incentive value in associative learning. (7/749)

Clinical evidence indicates that damage to ventromedial prefrontal cortex disrupts goal-directed actions that are guided by motivational and emotional factors. As a consequence, patients with such damage characteristically engage in maladaptive behaviors. Other research has shown that neurons in the corresponding orbital region of prefrontal cortex in laboratory animals encode information regarding the incentive properties of goals or expected events. The present study investigates the effect of neurotoxic orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) lesions in the rat on responses that are normally influenced by associations between a conditioned stimulus (CS) and the incentive value of reinforcement. Rats were first trained to associate a visual CS with delivery of food pellets to a food cup. As a consequence of learning, rats approached the food cup during the CS in anticipation of reinforcement. In a second training phase, injection of LiCl followed consumption of the food unconditioned stimulus (US) in the home cage, a procedure used to alter the incentive value of the US. Subsequently, rats were returned to the conditioning chamber, and their responding to the CS in the absence of the food US was tested. Lesions of OFC did not affect either the initial acquisition of a conditioned response to the light CS in the first training phase or taste aversion learning in the second training phase. In the test for devaluation, however, OFC rats exhibited no change in conditioned responding to the visual CS. This outcome contrasts with the behavior of control rats; after devaluation of the US a significant decrease occurred in approach to the food cup during presentation of the CS. The results reveal an inability of a cue to access representational information about the incentive value of associated reinforcement after OFC damage.  (+info)

Choosing between small, likely rewards and large, unlikely rewards activates inferior and orbital prefrontal cortex. (8/749)

Patients sustaining lesions of the orbital prefrontal cortex (PFC) exhibit marked impairments in the performance of laboratory-based gambling, or risk-taking, tasks, suggesting that this part of the human PFC contributes to decision-making cognition. However, to date, little is known about the particular regions of the orbital cortex that participate in this function. In the present study, eight healthy volunteers were scanned, using H(2)(15)0 PET technology, while performing a novel computerized risk-taking task. The task involved predicting which of two mutually exclusive outcomes would occur, but critically, the larger reward (and penalty) was associated with choice of the least likely outcome, whereas the smallest reward (and penalty) was associated with choice of the most likely outcome. Resolving these "conflicting" decisions was associated with three distinct foci of regional cerebral blood flow increase within the right inferior and orbital PFC: laterally, in the anterior part of the middle frontal gyrus [Brodmann area 10 (BA 10)], medially, in the orbital gyrus (BA 11), and posteriorly, in the anterior portion of the inferior frontal gyrus (BA 47). By contrast, increases in the degree of conflict inherent in these decisions was associated with only limited changes in activity within orbital PFC and the anterior cingulate cortex. These results suggest that decision making recruits neural activity from multiple regions of the inferior PFC that receive information from a diverse set of cortical and limbic inputs, and that the contribution of the orbitofrontal regions may involve processing changes in reward-related information.  (+info)

Glucocorticoids (GCs) have a profound effect on adipose biology increasing tissue mass causing central obesity. The pre-receptor regulation of GCs by 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11beta-HSD1) that activates cortisol from cortisone has been postulated as a fundamental mechanism underlying the metabolic syndrome mediating adipocyte hyperplasia and hypertrophy in the omental (OM) depot. Orbital adipose tissue (OF) is the site of intense inflammation and tissue remodelling in several orbital inflammatory disease states. In this study, we describe features of the GC metabolic pathways in normal human OF depot and compare it with subcutaneous (SC) and OM depots. Using an automated histological characterisation technique, OF adipocytes were found to be significantly smaller (parameters: area, maximum diameter and perimeter) than OM and SC adipocytes (P|0 x 001). Although immunohistochemical analyses demonstrated resident CD68+ cells in all three whole tissue adipose depots, OF CD68 mRNA and

Orbital Injury in Endoscopic Sinus Surgery for Sinonasal Inflammatory Disorders: Juntendos Ten-Year ExperienceOrbital Injury in Endoscopic Sinus Surgery for Sinonasal Inflammatory Disorders: Juntendos Ten-Year Experience
Orbital injury and complications are commonly encountered in endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) despite advances in techniques and instrumentation. For the recent 10 years, we summarized the experience of the rhinology unit of our department regarding orbital injury and complications of ESS for sinonasal inflammatory disorders. One thousand seventy-three patients (1869 sides) from January 1, 2003 to December 31, 2012 undergoing ESS for sinonasal inflammatory diseases were enrolled in the present study. The age of the patients ranged from 8 to 81 years, mean age 49 years. Orbital injury and complications were observed in 13 patients (13 sides), which corresponded to 0.7% of the operated sides and 1.2% of the patients. Eight patients showed herniation of orbital fat alone through the injury of the lamina papyracea. The protruding orbital fat was snipped and cut using forceps in 2 patients. Removal of exposed orbital fat using powered instruments was performed in 3 patients, two of whom transiently showed

A decision was made for a left transcranial orbitotomy with a cranio-orbital approach for removal of the foreign body. The posterior location of the pellet in the orbital apex eliminated an anterior orbitotomy approach. A lateral approach could have been used yet it would have required an osteotomy extending along the lateral orbital wall that was posteriorly fragmented. This would have required enlarging the bony incision of a classic lateral orbitotomy and removing the sphenoid wing to the superior orbital fissure, as described by Goldberg et al.(5) This approach would have eliminated the need for a craniotomy; however, it was possible that this might not have provided enough access and exposure to safely extract the pellet.

Purpose: : Thyroid Eye Dsease is characterized by infiltration of white blood cells and accumulation of nonsulfated glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan (HA) in orbital tissue. The inflamed orbital tissue can become full of scar and fat tissue. Transforming growth factor beta (TGFĪ²) acts as a key inducer of the fibrotic response by enhancing extracellular matrix production. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARĪ³) ligands have anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic activities. In this study, we hypothesized that TGFĪ² would induce HA synthesis/secretion and that PPARĪ³ ligands would inhibit this response in orbital fibroblasts. Methods: : Primary orbital fibroblasts were isolated from individual Graves patients undergoing orbital decompression surgery. The cells were grown in RPMI media containing 10%FBS. The amount of HA in the cell culture supernatant was measured by ELISA. HA synthase (HAS) mRNA expression was analyzed by real-time RT-PCR. Results: : Treatment of human orbital ...

Results Mean logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) VA increased, statistically significantly, by 2.4 lines during 30Ā±13 months (from 0.38Ā±0.25 before surgery to 0.14Ā±0.1 at the end of observation, p=0.0001). All eyes maintained or improved vision by at least one line. Mean postoperative reduction of proptosis was 6.4Ā±3 mm. While VECP P100 amplitudes improved significantly, P100 latencies remained abnormal in 18 eyes (60%) during follow-up of 10Ā±7 months. Nine eyes (30%) with previous latency defects improved in at least one check test, five of which normalised completely. Worsening was evident in seven eyes (23%), and three previously normal eyes developed new pathological latencies. P100 latencies in 14 eyes (47%) remained unchanged. ...

orbital-rim-implantsorbital-rim-implants
Definition : Ophthalmic implants designed for the total or partial reconstruction and/or augmentation of the extraocular rim, including the inferior (i.e., orbital floor), lateral (i.e., orbital wall), and superior parts of the rim. These implants are manufactured in a variety of sizes and shapes according to the intended use; they are typically made of high-density polymers (e.g., polyethylene) that are frequently reinforced with an embedded metal (usually titanium) mesh. The implants can be trimmed to fit the patients orbital anatomy. Dedicated orbital rim implants are available for use in procedures such as reconstruction of the orbital floor and wall augmentation of the inferior and lateral rim, augmentation of the lateral and superior or orbital rims in patients who are hypoplasic, and to support the lower eyelid and lateral canthus in patients who have inadequate support. These implants are used mainly to repair traumatic damage (e.g., fractures), to improve the function of the eyes, or ...

In a finite element analysis of orbital tissue mechanics, Schutte et al. 29 estimated the elastic modulus, which is equivalent to long-term stiffness in the present study, for intraconal and extraconal retrobulbar fat to be 0.3 and 1.0 KPa, respectively. Although muscle cone as a demarcating structure in the deep orbit is an anatomic fiction, 30 the bovine orbital fatty tissue in current investigation may correspond to what Schutte et al. 29 termed intraconal retrobulbar fat. The present study determined the long-term stiffness of human orbital fat to be 0.71 KPa, which is of similar magnitude to that reported by Schutte et al. 29 A more important observation of the current investigation, however, was similarity in the stiffness of normal human and bovine orbital fatty tissue. As can be seen in Table 1, the long-term stiffness of human orbital fatty tissue and bovine orbital fatty tissue are similar at 0.74 and 0.71 KPa, respectively. Although there is ,5% difference in long-term stiffness ...

I learnt what it takes to write a paper, analyze a study, even perform experiments (I got to play with human orbital fibroblasts, yay!). And I popped my publication cherry. And became a scientist. I still consider myself one- after all, a doctor is a person of science, and as dynamic as science can be, we too need to evolve and learn, dont we? And so, its interesting how I went from that hater of EBM in 1999, to one who looks at The Evidence, to guide his clinical judgments. Not only the conclusions of the study, but also to try to pick apart the study to see if he agrees with the findings.

Stereographic measurement of orbital volume, a digital reproducible evaluation method | British Journal of OphthalmologyStereographic measurement of orbital volume, a digital reproducible evaluation method | British Journal of Ophthalmology
Methods In order to calculate the orbital volume from axial CT slice images of the patients, using our first described measurement method, the segmentation of the orbital cavity and the bony skull was performed using Amira 3D Analysis Software. The files were then imported into the Blender program. The stereographic skull model was aligned based on the Frankfurt horizontal plane and superposed according to defined anatomical reference points. The anterior sectional plane ran through the most posterior section of the lacrimal fossa and the farthest dorsal point of the anterior latero-orbital margin, which is positioned perpendicular to the Frankfurt horizontal plane. The volume of each orbital cavity was then determined automatically by the Blender program. ...

Q: Dr. Eppley, Im a 32 year old man. I want a customized implant to provide forward projection to my infraorbital rims. Uniquely, I want this implant to move the frontal process of the maxilla forward. Here, I am referring to the point at which the infraorbital rim meets the frontal process. This would typically be a portion of the face moved by the Le Fort 2 osteotomy. I want to raise my infraorbital margin too. I want this implant to extend onto the zygomatic arch to provide a small amount of lateral projection there. I want no lateral movement of the zygomatic body, because I dislike cheekbone mass. The key objective for me however, is to widen the perceived appearance of my orbital complex. Ive noticed that this is an under appreciated and core aspect of beauty that most male models possess. I believe that this is possible by widening the brow bone, the lateral orbital rim and the zygomatic arch. I have so many questions on the theory of this, but I will limit them to 4 questions for your ...

BACKGROUND: Lateral canthal rhytides partly result from repetitive muscular actions of the orbicularis oculi. OBJECTIVE: To determine the efficacy of one versus three injection sites of AbobotulinumtoxinA (ABO) in the treatment of lateral canthal rhytides. METHODS: This was a two-center, evaluator-masked, 120 day study in which 40 patients with moderate to severe hyperdynamic lateral canthal rhytides at maximal contracture were randomized to receive one injection of 36 Units of ABO into the middle of the lateral orbital rhytides on one side, with the contralateral side treated with the same total dose of ABO, divided into three intradermal injections of 12 Units each, along the lateral canthal area. A blinded evaluator assessed lateral orbital rhytides at rest and maximal contraction at baseline, 7, 42, 90, and 120 days post treatment. Standardized digital photography and subject self- assessment were performed at each visit. RESULTS: No statistically significant difference was seen at any visit

Laser-driven electron recollision remembers molecular orbital structureLaser-driven electron recollision remembers molecular orbital structure
Scientists from the Max Born Institute for Nonlinear Optics and Short Pulse Spectroscopy (MBI) in Berlin combined state-of-the-art experiments and numerical simulations to test a fundamental assumption underlying strong-field physics. Their results refine our understanding of strong-field processes such as high harmonic generation (HHG) and laser-induced electron diffraction (LIED). Strong infrared laser pulses can extract an electron from a molecule (ionization), accelerate it away into free space, then turn it around (propagation), and finally collide it with the molecule (recollision). This is the widely used three-step model of strong-field physics. In the recollision step, the electron may, for example, recombine with the parent ion, giving rise to high harmonic generation, or scatter elastically, giving rise to laser-induced electron diffraction. One of the commonly used assumptions underlying attosecond physics is that, in the propagation step, the initial structure of the ionized electron is

There is no difference between the sexes when it comes to an exaggerated temporal fossa depression. Even though I have treated only one woman with a significant indentation, I believe strongly that a deeply concave or inwardly curved space has nothing to do with gender. Whether you are a man or a woman, a pronounced hollow just behind your lateral orbital rims, the bony ridges to the side of your eyes, can have a significant effect on your facial aesthetics. This hollow can make you appear starving when you are well fed. Although the majority of the people dont have a temporal fossa depression that merits attention, it is not an uncommon occurrence. ...

Endoscopic orbital decompression of an isolated medial orbital wall fracture: A case report | Ear, Nose & Throat JournalEndoscopic orbital decompression of an isolated medial orbital wall fracture: A case report | Ear, Nose & Throat Journal
Motor vehicle and bicycle accidents are the most common causes of blunt head trauma. Other common etiologies are falls, physical violence, and sports accidents. Blunt trauma toward the superior orbital rim, lateral orbital rim, frontal region, and cranium may lead to intraorbital hematoma. A fracture following the blunt head trauma may form a one-way valve, which leads to orbital emphysema and a more pronounced increase in orbital pressure. Increased tissue pressure in an enclosed space will eventually lead to an inevitable decrease in tissue perfusion. It is important to treat the patient within the first 48 hours following the trauma, which is accepted as the critical period. In this report we present a case involving a 42-year-old man who was admitted to our clinic with left periorbital pain, edema, proptosis, and blurred vision after experiencing physical violence. The medical history and physical examination findings, along with imaging studies and a description of the endoscopic orbital ...

Building the Case for Insulin-Like Growth Factor Receptor-I Involvement in Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy - ScienceOpenBuilding the Case for Insulin-Like Growth Factor Receptor-I Involvement in Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy - ScienceOpen
The pathogenesis of orbital Graves disease (GD), a process known as thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO), remains incompletely understood. The thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) represents the central autoantigen involved in GD and has been proposed as the thyroid antigen shared with the orbit that could explain the infiltration of immune cells into tissues surrounding the eye. Another cell surface protein, insulin-like growth factor-I receptor (IGF-IR), has recently been proposed as a second antigen that participates in TAO by virtue of its interactions with anti-IGF-IR antibodies generated in GD, its apparent physical and functional complex formation with TSHR, and its necessary involvement in TSHR post-receptor signaling. The proposal that IGF-IR is involved in TAO has provoked substantial debate. Furthermore, several studies from different laboratory groups, each using different experimental models, have yielded conflicting results. In this article, we attempt to summarize the biological

Penetrating orbital trauma by stiletto causing complex cranial neuropathies | Emergency Medicine JournalPenetrating orbital trauma by stiletto causing complex cranial neuropathies | Emergency Medicine Journal
Penetrating orbital injuries pose a serious threat to vision, ocular motility, and in some cases, life. Long, sharp stiletto objects may penetrate deeply, causing catastrophic damage to orbital structures, despite seemingly trivial entry wounds. The authors present two cases of penetrating orbital injuries by stiletto objects, both entering via small eyelid wounds. Traumatic optic neuropathy occurred in both cases, and was treated with corticosteroids, however the globes escaped direct injury. Injuries to the IIIrd and VIth cranial nerves were also observed. Deep orbital injuries must be excluded in patients presenting with small eyelid wounds caused by sharp penetrating objects.. ...

Intraorbital tissues effects of rituximab (RTX) treatment in patients with thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO)Intraorbital tissues effects of rituximab (RTX) treatment in patients with thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO)
We previously described a significant response to RTX treatment in patients with active TAO, with no effect on TRAb and hyperthyroidism. In order to study the effect of RTX in the orbit, we analyzed the orbital tissues of 9 patients with TAO at decompression after RTX (n.2) or other treatments. Decompression was carried out in 2 patients for sight threatening optic neuropathy and in 7 for correction of proptosis. Of the RTX treated patients, one was decompressed after 12 months because of optic neuropathy, while the other after 23 months with burnt out disease. Of the other 7 patients, one was decompressed for the second time because of relapse of optic neuropathy that did not respond to steroids and 6 had burnt out disease of 15-175 months of duration. Immunohistochemistry of orbital fat and muscle showed presence of infiltrating immune cells in all patients. Infiltrates were present independently of the duration and the type of treatment of TAO and of thyroid disease. Interestingly, in the ...

Intraorbital haematoma is a rare clinical entity which can be caused by orbital traumas, neoplasms, surgeries nearby sinuses and orbit, vascular malformations, acute sinusitis, systemic abnormalities, barotrauma and valsalva maneuver. A 74-year-old male presented with sudden onset of ocular pain, upper eye lid swelling, proptosis and diplopia after a commercial flight. After complete ophthalmic ocular examination including pupillary light reflexes and laboratory examinations; computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of orbit revealed a subperiostal mass-like lesion in the right retrobulbar-extraconal region which was compatible with intraorbital haematoma. Visual acuity was not compromised so we planned a conservative approach with close observation. We administered systemic corticosteroid and topical dorzolamide/timolol combination therapy. At the first month follow-up, intraorbital haematoma resolved without significant sequelae. Intraorbital haematoma can be managed by conservative approach

TY - JOUR. T1 - Footprints of the globe. T2 - A practical look at the mechanism of orbital blowout fractures, with a revisit to the work of Raymond Pfeiffer. AU - Erling, Brian F.. AU - Iliff, Nicholas. AU - Robertson, Bradley. AU - Manson, Paul N.. PY - 1999/4. Y1 - 1999/4. N2 - Multiple mechanisms of orbital blowout fractures have been proposed since the fracture was described at the beginning of this century. The original theory of direct globe-to-wall contact was abandoned long ago for the more contemporary hydraulic and bone conduction theories. Although the more widely accepted theories play an obvious role in fracture generation and its associated complications, it is our contention that direct globe-to-wall contact is an important and largely unrecognized mechanism in orbital blowout fracture production. By means of a critical review of the historical literature and an analysis of patient computed tomography scans, support is presented for the original theory first proposed by Raymond ...

Purpose. Graves ophthalmopathy (GO) is characterized by the infiltration of immune cells into the orbit, a process in which cytokines play a central role. Orbital fibroblasts are potent producers of cytokines on different stimuli. Recently, the authors showed increased expression of the PDGF-B chain in GO orbital tissue. The dimeric PDGF-BB molecule has been described to activate the NF-ĪŗB pathway, which is well recognized for its role in regulating cytokine production. This study was conducted to determine the role of PDGF-BB in the production of proinflammatory cytokines by orbital fibroblasts in GO. Methods. Orbital, lung, and skin fibroblasts were stimulated with PDGF-BB, and cytokine (IL-1Ī², IL-6, IL-8, IL-16, CCL2, CCL5, CCL7, TNF-Ī±) production was measured by ELISA. Involvement of NF-ĪŗB activation through PDGF signaling was investigated by electrophoretic mobility shift assay, specific NF-ĪŗB inhibitors, and the PDGF-receptor kinase inhibitor imatinib mesylate. Results. IL-6, IL-8, ...

Orbital Fracture | Orbital blow out | Orbital TraumaOrbital Fracture | Orbital blow out | Orbital Trauma
However, we find that the incidence of injury is significantly higher in the pure fracture group suggesting that a different mechanism is at play. It is more reasonable to envision that the acute rise in orbital pressure would lead not only to the floor fracturing, but also to a greater incidence of intraocular injury as the globe retropulses. One could argue, however, that in the case of the impure fracture, the rate of injury is lower because the force is blunted by the rim. Nevertheless, we believe that these data suggest that the retropulsion theory might possibly be the more likely explanation for orbital fractures; one theory (retropulsion) can explain variations of ocular findings in both pure and impure fractures ...

Pictorial Review of Histopathologically Diagnosed Orbital Tumors - American Journal of Ophthalmic Clinical TrialsPictorial Review of Histopathologically Diagnosed Orbital Tumors - American Journal of Ophthalmic Clinical Trials
A systemic radiological approach to examining the images is needed to reach a differential diagnosis. The images should be studied for lesion appearance, localization, contrast enhancement, bony orbit evaluation, and detection of calcifications.[3,4]. The lesion appearance on imaging includes; solid or cystic, well circumscribed or ill-defined, and localized or infiltrative.[4] Comparing the density of the lesion with that of the vitreous body can help to identify a solid lesion, whose density is higher than that of vitreous on CT images.[4]. Orbital tumors can be localized anatomically to within the globe/intraocular or intraconal or in the extraconal space, the orbital apex, the extraocular muscles, or the lacrimal gland. CT remains the modality of choice for evaluation of the bony orbit and paranasal sinuses. MRI is preferred to evaluate the optic nerve and chiasm.[3,4]. Contrast enhancement aids in the characterization of orbital masses. Moderate to marked enhancement is usually noted in ...

FDA approves first treatment for thyroid eye disease - Viglya: promoting science, honoring lifeFDA approves first treatment for thyroid eye disease - Viglya: promoting science, honoring life
Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Tepezza (teprotumumab-trbw) for the treatment of adults with thyroid eye disease, a rare condition where the muscles and fatty tissues behind the eye become inflamed, causing the eyes to be pushed forward and bulge outwards (proptosis). Todays approval represents the first drug approved for the treatment of thyroid eye disease.. Todays approval marks an important milestone for the treatment of thyroid eye disease. Currently, there are very limited treatment options for this potentially debilitating disease. This treatment has the potential to alter the course of the disease, potentially sparing patients from needing multiple invasive surgeries by providing an alternative, non surgical treatment option, said Wiley Chambers, M.D., deputy director of the Division of Transplant and Ophthalmology Products in the FDAs Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. Additionally, thyroid eye disease is a rare disease that impacts a small ...

Bilateral subfrontal gives much better access than unilateral. The blind spot behind ipsilateral optic nerve can be visualised from the contralateral side. I never use unilateral approach. Head extended so that frontal lobes fall back by gravity. Do not use lumbar drain because much higher chance of extradural hematoma because frontal lobe often sunken at the end of surgery with drainage of CSF.. Bicoronal curvy incision results in better hair growth than straight one. Skin incision does not need to go all the way down to zygomatic arches unless pterygonal approach is needed as well.

Its terminal branches, escaping from the gland, are distributed to the eyelids and conjunctiva: of those supplying the eyelids, two are of considerable size and are named the lateral palpebral arteries; they run medially in the upper and lower lids respectively and anastomose with the medial palpebral arteries, forming an arterial circle in this situation. The lacrimal artery also give off one or two zygomatic branches, one of which passes through the zygomatico-temporal foramen, to reach the temporal fossa, and anastomoses with the deep temporal arteries; another appears on the cheek through the zygomatico-facial foramen, and anastomoses with the transverse facial. A recurrent branch passes backward through the lateral part of the superior orbital fissure to the dura mater, and anastomoses with a branch of the middle meningeal artery. ...

Over the last 4 years I have primarily utilized a temporal endoscopic plane approach (between the superficial and deep temporalis fascia) with or without the use of the endoscope to reshape the brow contour. My focus has been a temporal lift only. In my experience, in most cases, lifting the medial brow is an error which changes normal eyelid and periorbital, and ultimately, facial proportions. Most who need medial brow elevation also have bunching of glabellar tissue, and I have found benefit most from a central pretrichial approach (with tissue excision) combined with the temporal lift described below.. The procedure proceeds with standard temporal approach sub-superficial temporal fascia access to the canthus. This plane is made continuous with the central subperiosteal space by dividing the conjoint tendon. Dissection continues to the arcus marginalis periosteum at the superior orbital rim. The periosteum is released from the supraorbital neurovascular bundle laterally to the canthus. It is ...

Treatment is essential to protect the cornea and the optic nerve from getting permanently damaged. In the initial stages of the disease, lubricating drops are used to keep the eye moist. Most patients must be started on steroid tablets for a few months to control the progression of the disease. Closure of the lids may be required if the lids are not able to completely cover the eyes. The closure is temporary and is done only on the outer part of the lids, leaving the cornea clear so that vision is not affected. If protrusion of the eyeball is too great the optic nerve is in danger. At this stage, orbital decompression is advised. This surgery involves breaking one or more walls of the orbit in order that the extra fat, which has been deposited in the orbit due to thyroid eye disease, may be displaced out of the orbit. The eyeball can then be pushed back into the orbit. A patient who has suffered from thyroid eye disease for a long time develops eye movement disorders and requires eye muscle ...
