    3. Neoplastic orbitaltumours adult metastases  Choroid is more common site than orbit.  1ry site from breast (70%), lung, prostate, skin, GIT. C/P Any orbital sign • Proptosis, dystopia, opthalmoplegia, enophthalmos, chronic inflamation. Invest. • CT, MRI, FNAB, for 1y tumour. TTT Save life Save vision Save globeSamhaa Mohammed

    3. Neoplastic orbitaltumours childhood metastases orbital invasion Neuroblastoma • One of the most common M in childhood Myeloid sarcoma • Bilateral orbital involvement. May preceed lsystemic leukemia Langerhans cell histocytosis • Histyocyte proliferation lead to bone destruction. Orbital invasion from adjacent tumours • Sinus tumour (ethmoid, maxillary, nasopharyngeal carcinoma). • Bony invasion (fibrous dysplasia, intracranial meningioma). • Invasion from lid, conjunctiva, IO tumours.

    4. Congenital orbitaltumours Dermoid Superficial • Superotemporal well circumscribed smooth firm lesion. • Posterior border can be palpable. • Imaging: well circumscribed heterogenous cystic lesion. • Ttt: observation if small. Systemic steroid if rupture. Excision in toto Deep • More in adult life, with gradual proptosis or leaky inflamation. • Dystopia, proptosis, indistinct post margin. • Imaging: well circumscribed heterogenous cystic lesion with bony defect / intracranial extension. • Ttt: excision in toto.

    4. Congenital orbitaldefects Encephalocele • Congenital defect at the base of the skull with herniation of cranial tissue. • Pulsatile proptosis without bruit. Meningeocele: meninges herniation. Meningeoencephalocele: + brain tissue Anterior encephalocele: • Superomedial defect . • Globe displacement forward and laterally. Posterior encephalocele: • Shift the globe forward and inferior. • Associated with NF1 CT: bony defect Samhaa Mohammed

    4. Congenital orbitalmalformation craniosynostosis  Premature cranial suture closure leads to abnormal shaped skull. Crouzon syndrome (AD) • Proptosis (shallow orbit), prominent lower jaw (prognathism). • Hypertolerism, short anteropost diameter, V exotropia. • Exposure keratopathy, ON. Apert syndrome (AD, sporadic) • Most severe craniosynostosis, Oxycephaly (conical shape). • Peaked nose, low set ears, midfacial hypolplasia. • Hypertelorism, proptosis less than crouzon. Pfeiffer syndrome (AD) • As Apert, downslanting palpebral fissure. Samhaa Mohammed

    Anophthalmic socket Surgeries: • Enucleation •Removal of globe in primary IO malignancy, blind painful eye or after severe trauma. • Evisceration • Removal of entire content of globe with sparing sclera, EOM (better movement • Not in IO malignancy • Exentration • Removal of globe, soft tissue of orbit, part of bony part. • In orbital malignancy, mucormycosis. • After surgery, prothesis attached to surrounding skin, mounted in glasses Samhaa Mohammed

    Anophthalmic socket Indication: • Intraocular,orbital malignancy • Blind painful eye • Severe destructive penetrating trauma • Non treatable endophthalmitis • Symapthetic ophthalmia Samhaa Mohammed
  • 94.
    Anophthalmic socket Rehabilitation • Cosmoticshell • Cover shrunken unsightly eye. • Over implant after maintaining fornices by conformer. • Orbital implant • Non integrated (silicon, acrylic), integrated (polythelene, hydroxyapatite) → provide better motility. • Subperiosteal floor implant. • Filler material orbital injection. • Dermis fat graft (failure or other implants to be implanted). Choose the largest implant for the pt socket Samhaa Mohammed
