RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Epidemiological studies of ocular melanomas have largely focused on Caucasian populations. This study reviewed the course and outcomes of uveal melanoma (UM) and conjunctival melanoma (CM) in Chinese patients. METHODS: This retrospective study included patients with UM and CM who received treatment in a tertiary eye centre in Hong Kong from January 1994 to December 2019. Data were recorded concerning patient demographics, tumour laterality, tumour characteristics, investigations performed, treatment regimen, and final outcomes. RESULTS: During the 25-year study period, there were 13 patients with UM and 11 patients with CM who did not display nodal or systemic involvement at diagnosis. The mean ± standard deviation ages at diagnosis of UM and CM were 59 ± 15.8 and 57 ± 13.9 years, respectively. There were more men among patients with UM than among those with CM (P=0.042). Most patients with UM underwent primary enucleation (n=12; 92.3%), whereas most patients with CM underwent orbital exenteration (n=9; 81.8%). The prognosis was significantly worse for CM than for UM. The median disease-free survival were 5.2 years (range, 0.7-20.5) and 2.1 years (range, 0.1-24.9) for UM and CM, respectively. Melanoma-related mortality was significantly higher among patients with CM than among those with UM (P=0.006). CONCLUSION: Compared with UM, CM has higher rates of systemic metastasis and tumour-related mortality in Hong Kong Chinese patients, regardless of prior definitive treatment.

RESUMEN

Dry eye disease is one of the most common ophthalmic complaints; it results from the activity of various pathways and is considered a multifactorial disease. An important factor that contributes to the onset of dry eye disease is meibomian gland dysfunction. Meibomian gland dysfunction causes a disruption in the tear film lipid layer which affects the rate of tear evaporation. This evaporation leads to tear hyperosmolarity, eventually triggering the onset of dry eye disease. Dry eye disease and meibomian gland dysfunction are strongly associated with each other, such that many of their risk factors, signs, and symptoms overlap. This review aimed to provide an update on the association between dry eye disease and meibomian gland dysfunction. A stepwise approach for diagnosis and management is summarised.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To describe a hybrid procedure for orbital venous malformation in the endovascular operating room (EVOR). METHODS: Five consecutive patients with venous malformation in the periocular and orbital region were included. All patients received a one-stage direct puncture venogram, image-guided glue injection, and surgical resection in the EVOR equipped with a biplane digital subtraction angiography system (BDSAS). RESULTS: The mean age at the time of operation was 37.4 years (range, 22-69 years). The mean operative time was 193 min (range, 138-324 min). No intraoperative complications were noted. The mean follow-up duration was 18.8 months (range, 10-24 months). Three patients had complete removal of the vascular lesions. At the latest follow-up, no recurrence of symptoms related to the lesions was noted. All patients had an uneventful recovery and satisfactory outcome. CONCLUSIONS: The hybrid procedure of orbital venous malformation in the EVOR is a novel application in ophthalmology. It is a safe and well-controlled procedure with real-time high-quality BDSAS surveillance to facilitate surgical resection. Its success requires collaboration between the interventional radiologist, the surgeon, and the ophthalmologist.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To report an unusual case of spontaneous late leakage of filtering bleb in a patient with orbital pseudotumor. METHODS: Single case report. RESULTS: A 53-year-old woman developed spontaneous leakage of bleb in her right eye 23 years after trabeculectomy with application of mitomycin-C (MMC). Two weeks later, her symptoms were blurring of vision, increasing redness, and dull ocular pain in the right eye. The inflammatory signs were suggestive of endophthalmitis, orbital cellulites, or pseudo-tumor. Absence of ophthalmoplegia, fever, and raised white cell count, together with the computed tomographic scan finding, confirmed the diagnosis of orbital pseudotumor. She responded well to oral steroids. CONCLUSIONS: Orbital pseudotumor may initially present with spontaneous late leakage in a bleb augmented by MMC. Orbital pseudotumor should be added to the list of differential diagnoses when facing a patient with an inflamed, chemotic, proptotic eye in the presence of a late bleb leak.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy and safety of combined orbital irradiation and systemic steroids in the management of moderate-to-severe Graves' ophthalmopathy. DESIGN: Single-blind randomised prospective study. SETTING: Regional hospital, Hong Kong. PATIENTS: Sixteen patients with active moderate-to-severe Graves' ophthalmopathy who were randomly assigned to steroid therapy (ST group) or combination therapy of orbital irradiation and systemic steroids (SRT group) between June 2000 and June 2003. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: NOSPECS scoring system, total eye score, subjective eye score, and extra-ocular muscle thickness as determined by either computed tomographic or magnetic resonance imaging scans. RESULTS: The study was completed by 15 of 16 patients. Both groups experienced improvement in total eye score, soft tissue swelling, ocular motility, visual acuity, and subjective eye score at 52-week follow-up. Total eye score improved earlier in the SRT group, achieving statistical significance (P<0.05) at as early as 4 weeks of follow-up. Improvement in ocular parameters was greater and led to a significantly greater reduction in total eye score than in the ST group at weeks 16, 24, and 52. Maximum extra-ocular muscle thickness was significantly reduced in the SRT group only. No change was observed in proptosis in either group. No serious adverse effect was observed with the addition of orbital irradiation to steroid therapy. CONCLUSION: A combination of orbital irradiation and systemic steroids is well tolerated and more effective than steroids alone in the treatment of active moderate-to-severe Graves' ophthalmopathy. It achieves greater and more rapid improvement in soft tissue swelling, ocular motility, and visual acuity.

RESUMEN

AIM: To assess and compare the results of primary and secondary implantation of scleral fixated posterior chamber intraocular lens (SFIOL). METHODS: The medical records of a consecutive series of 55 eyes of 55 patients with SFIOLs implanted during (group 1) or after (group 2) complicated senile cataract surgery were retrospectively reviewed and analysed. RESULTS: There were 30 and 25 eyes in group 1 and 2, respectively. Follow up was from 6 to 36 months. Mean logMAR postoperative best corrected visual acuity in group 1 was not significantly different (0.50 (SD 0.36)) from that of group 2 (0.36 (0.21)) (p=0.109). Postoperative best corrected visual acuity of 6/12 or better was achieved in 58.6% and 76.0% in group 1 and 2, respectively. The difference was not statistically significant (p=0.177). In group 1, 25 (83.3%) eyes had a total of 55 early complications, while in group 2, 16 (64%) eyes had 26 early complications (p=0.028). The difference in early complication was statistically significant. For late complication after 1 month, 21 (70.0%) eyes had a total of 37 complications in group 1, while 13 eyes (52.0%) had 19 complications in group 2 (p=0.077). The difference in late complication was not statistically significant. CONCLUSION: Secondary implantation of SFIOL after cataract extraction seems to have a lower early complication rate than primary implantation in complicated cataract extraction although the final visual acuity and late complication rate are not significantly different.
