RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Anterior scleral staphyloma is a relatively rare disease characterized by thinning and expansion of sclera. We described the clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment of a case with giant anterior scleral staphyloma caused by blunt ocular trauma. CASE PRESENTATION: A 24-years-old male, presented with a black cyst-like mass protruding from the right eyeball for 9 years after a history of glass crush contusion. The ultrasound biomicroscopy examination showed two cysts in the right eyeball. The larger one was about 5.92 mm*4.69 mm in size and the scleral lacerations were connected to the posterior chamber below the cyst. For treatment, resection of the anterior scleral staphyloma and the scleral patch graft transplantation was performed. The vision of the patient was improved compared with that before surgery. There were no obvious complications. CONCLUSION: The clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of the case with giant anterior scleral staphyloma can provide a reference for the management of anterior scleral staphyloma. Surgical resection and scleral patch graft should be a good option for the treatment of giant anterior scleral staphyloma.

Scleral melting, while rare, can lead to significant ocular morbidity. Several possible risk factors for scleral melt have been identified, such as infection, autoimmune disease, trauma, and post-surgical state, and these may act in combination with each other. Treatment should be tailored according to the etiology and severity of the scleral melt. Medical management may be indicated, especially in cases of autoimmune-related melt; however, surgical procedures are often necessary due to compromised ocular integrity and limited penetration of medications into the avascular sclera. An understanding of the surgical options available and their operative outcomes is particularly important when choosing the appropriate treatment protocol for each patient.

BACKGROUND: Phacoemulsification has been the mainstay method for extracapsular cataract extraction surgery in the anterior segment; for cases of posterior drop of lens fragments into the vitreous, a posterior segment phacoemulsification instrument (fragmatome; Alcon, Inc., Fort Worth, TX) can be employed to remove the dislocated lens materials. Studies have reported on thermal injury to the cornea during phacmoemulsification of the anterior segment. However, few studies have investigated thermal burn in the simultaneous sclera and eyelid induced by the fragmatome. Currently, there is no reports and lack of optimal strategy for the management of nucleus drop in a vitreous cavity filled with silicon oil. CASE PRESENTATION: We present the case of a 53-year-old male patient with a thermal burn wound on the upper eyelid and sclera following phacoemulsification for a dropped lens in a silicone oil-filled vitreous. We further designed an experiment to verify our hypothesis that thermal injury could be induced by the high temperature of the metal tip during phacoemulsification in silicone oil. In our experiment, during 420 s of continuous ultrasonic wave, the temperature of the fragmatome tip in the balanced salt solution (BSS) increased from 22.0 to 24.0 ºC, while the temperature of the fragmatome tip in the silicone oil group increased from 22.0 to 43.0 ºC. CONCLUSIONS: The temperature of the fragmatome tip increased significantly in silicone oil compared to BSS in the experiment. Thus, physicians should be aware of possible thermal complications when using fragmatome in eyes filled with silicone oil.

Purpose: To review surgical options, techniques, and outcomes of anterior staphyloma repair done following trauma and surgery. Methods: This was a retrospective case study of patients who underwent staphyloma repair with scleral or tibial periosteal patch grafts following trauma and surgery with a minimum follow-up of 3 months postoperatively. Preoperative risk factors, choice of graft materials, surgical details, and outcomes in terms of graft uptake and tectonic integrity were analyzed. Results: Seventeen eyes of 17 patients underwent successful staphyloma repair (scleral 15, tibial periosteal two). Mean follow-up was 47.1 months (3-159 months). Postoperative intraocular pressure rise noted in four eyes was controlled medically or surgically. Three patients underwent successful repeat patch grafting (graft melt one and recurrent ectasia two). Tectonic integrity of the eyeball was restored and maintained in all patients at the final follow-up. Conclusion: Comprehensive evaluation of the risk factors, control of ocular comorbid conditions, and early and meticulous surgery can optimize results.

RATIONALE: A few cases of intercalary staphyloma have been reported in patients with Marfan syndrome, but we believe that this is the first case of intercalary staphyloma in Marfan syndrome developing after strabismus surgery. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 9-year-old girl diagnosed with Marfan syndrome visited a strabismus clinic for treatment of esotropia. Both eyes were aphakic and had 60 prism diopter esotropia at distance and 55 prism diopter esotropia at near. There were no corneal, conjunctival, or scleral abnormalities. Six millimeters of recession was performed on both medial rectus muscles via an inferonasal fornix approach under general anesthesia. 5 days after surgery, a dark gray protruding lesion was observed on the upper nasal side of the left eye. DIAGNOSES: Intraocular ultrasonography showed no bleeding, retinal detachment, or other abnormal findings. Computed tomography showed a conical protrusion of the scleral wall which was diagnosed as intercalary staphyloma. INTERVENTIONS: To reduce risk of progression of the staphyloma in the left eye and to reduce risk of development of a new staphyloma, intraocular pressure lowering eye drops were administered. OUTCOMES: We just observed it without any intervention except the intraocular pressures lowering eye drops. It remained stable for 12 months. LESSONS: Clinicians need to be alert to the possibility of this serious complication in Marfan syndrome patients after minor surgical trauma, which can occur during uneventful strabismus surgery.

PURPOSE: Limbo-keratoplasty enables visual improvement and limbal stem cell transplantation at the same. During follow-up, most grafts show vascularization of the limbus. However, it is unclear whether vascularization is harmful due to immunologic effects or helpful to nourish the limbal stem cells and is therefore necessary for a clear graft. The aim of our study is to analyze the influence of graft vascularization on graft survival following homologous limbo-keratoplasty. METHODS: In this retrospective study, we assessed all consecutive limbo-keratoplasties performed in our hospital. All eyes with suitable photo-documentation were included and divided into two groups (limbal stem cell deficiency and corneal dystrophy). We categorized the grade of vascularization (0, 1, 2, 3, 3b) and analyzed clear graft survival, recurrence of the underlying disease and the endothelial cell density (ECD) with regard to the reason for the graft. Event rates were estimated with the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: A total of 79 eyes with limbal stem cell deficiency and 15 with corneal dystrophies were analyzed. A high degree of graft vascularization had a tendency for better graft survival in limbal stem cell deficiency, whereas in corneal dystrophies, grafts with no vascularization had preferable outcomes. Recurrence-free graft survival was only seen in grade 1 and 3 vascularization in corneal dystrophies. CONCLUSION: Vascularization of the limbus seems to have an impact on the long-term outcome of limbo-keratoplasty. The effect seems to be favorable in limbal stem cell deficiency and on recurrence rates in corneal dystrophies. However, the latter might be overshadowed by an unfavorable immunologic effect in corneal dystrophies where the baseline immunologic risk profile is commonly more favorable than in limbal stem cell deficiency.

ABSTRACT To report a series of three cases (four eyes) of scleral necrosis after pterygium excision, in which the tarsoconjunctival flap technique was used as treatment. Three patients who progressed to scleral necrosis after surgical pterygium excision were selected. The first patient underwent excision using the bare sclera technique and developed scleral thinning in the immediate postoperative period. The second and third patients received beta irradiation and had late onset scleral necrosis. The tarsoconjunctival flap technique was performed by the same surgeon. Recovery was satisfactory from both anatomical and functional perspectives in all cases, and the technique was considered effective and safe. Although there are only few reports about this technique in the literature, it can be considered as a good alternative to treat scleral necrosis.
RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi relatar uma série de três casos (quatro olhos) de necrose escleral pós-exérese de pterígio, em que se utilizou como tratamento a técnica de retalho tarsoconjuntival. Foram selecionados três pacientes que evoluíram para necrose escleral após tratamento cirúrgico de exérese de pterígio: o primeiro caso após técnica de esclera nua, com evolução para afinamento escleral no pós-operatório imediato; o segundo e o terceiro fizeram uso de betaterapia e apresentaram necrose escleral tardiamente. A técnica de recobrimento tarsoconjuntival foi executada pelo mesmo cirurgião. A recuperação foi satisfatória em todos os casos, do ponto de vista anatômico e funcional, sendo eficiente e segura. Apesar das escassas menções na literatura, essa técnica pode ser considerada uma boa alternativa para tratamento da necrose escleral.

RATIONALE: : Reinforcement of thinned or necrotizing sclera has been conducted using various materials, including allogeneic sclera, allogenic cornea, amniotic membrane, fascia lata, pericardium, periosteum, and perichondrium. Among them, good outcomes have traditionally been obtained using preserved scleral grafts. However, scleral patch grafts have complications such as graft retraction, thinning, dehiscence, and necrosis. Furthermore, to promote epithelial healing, scleral patch grafting must be accompanied by procedures such as amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) or grafting using conjunctival flaps or autografts. Recently, acellular preserved human corneas have been used in various ophthalmic surgeries, with emerging evidence supporting its use for treating scleral defects as an option that does not require AMT or conjunctival autografting. We investigated whether corneal patch grafting would show wound healing and tectonic success rate outcomes comparable to those of existing techniques. PATIENT PRESENTATION: : Three patients presented with intractable ocular pain. Slit-lamp examination showed marked scleral thinning at the nasal side. DIAGNOSIS: : Scleral thinning progressed with conservative treatment; microbial staining and culturing were performed. Infectious or non-infectious scleritis was diagnosed according to slit-lamp examination and microbial culture results. INTERVENTIONS: : A preserved corneal lamellar patch was grafted at the scleral thinning area. OUTCOMES: All patients achieved tectonic success with reduction of inflammation following corneal patch grafting. Two patients achieved complete re-epithelialization within 7âdays, while 25âdays were required for the third patient. No patients experienced graft thinning, rejection, or infection. LESSONS: : Our report suggests the feasibility of using acellular preserved human cornea patch grafts to reinforce inflammatory scleral defects and obtain successful outcomes in terms of wound healing. This technique shows a comparable tectonic success rate and superior effect on scleral defect healing without the need for adjunctive AMT or conjunctival autografting.

INTRODUCTION: Pterygium is a common chronic ocular surface condition in ophthalmology.At present, the main treatment modality is surgical resection. Although the recurrence rate can be controlled to varying degrees, some patients can still develop serious complications, such as scleral melting, corneal melting, and even corneal perforation.We report a case of severe corneal and scleral melting after pterygium surgery treated with a bandage lens. PATIENT INFORMATION: A 60-year-old male who developed corneoscleral melting after pterygium surgery. DIAGNOSIS: This patient was diagnosed with corneoscleral melting. INTERVENTIONS: This patient was treated with a bandage lens and eye drops. OUTCOMES: He was treated with a bandage lens, and the tear break-up time (BUT) was prolonged. After 12âdays the cornea and sclera were completely cured and the bandage lens was removed after one month. CONCLUSION: After pterygium surgery, various factors affect the occurrence of serious complications of autolysis. Mainly on ocular parts, such as the cornea and sclera, a bandage lens can stabilize the ocular surface tear film and prolong the tear break-up time (BUT), effectively prevent corneoscleral melting and promote corneoscleral cure.

Presentamos el caso de un preescolar varón de 3 años con un coristoma óseo epibulbar. El paciente presentaba una masa subconjuntival de consistencia dura de 8×10 mm en el cuadrante superotemporal del ojo derecho con vascularización y presencia de cilios largos de aproximadamente 8 a 10 mm que tocaban la superficie corneal. El estudio histopatológico evidenció la presencia de trabéculas de hueso compacto maduro rodeado de tejido fibroso, canales de Havers con anillos concéntricos de hueso laminar sin médula ósea y con osteocitos normales, lo cual definió el diagnóstico de coristoma óseo epibulbar. El coristoma óseo es el tipo más raro de coristomas oculares y debe considerar en el diagnóstico diferencial de los tumores epibulbares pediátricos
We present the case of a 3-year-old male child with an epibulbar bone choristoma. The patient presented with a hard consistency subconjunctival mass of 8 × 10 mm in the superior-temporal quadrant of his right eye along with vascularisation and a long cilium of approximately 8 to 10 mm that touched the corneal surface. The histopathology study showed the presence of trabeculae of mature, compact bone surrounded by fibrous tissue, as well as Havers channels with concentric rings of laminar bone without bone marrow, and with normal osteocytes which defined the diagnosis of epibulbar bone choristoma. Osseous choristoma is the rarest type of the ocular choristoma and should be considered as a differential diagnosis among paediatric epibulbar tumour

Purpose: Choukroun's platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), a second-generation platelet concentrate, has unique morphological and chemical features and may be considered as a scaffold for scleral reinforcement and regeneration. The purpose of this study was to compare the use of xenogenic human-derived amniotic membrane (HAM), allogenic sclera, and autogenic PRF in rabbit lamellar scleral defect model with respect to both anatomical and immunohistochemical improvement. Methods: A total of 45 adult New Zealand rabbits were randomized into five groups: normal control; without surgical procedure, negative control; scleral defect model (SDM), xenogenic HAM; SDM+HAM graft, allogenic sclera; SDM+allogenic sclera graft, autogenic PRF; SDM+autogenic PRF graft. Clinical findings, Hematoxylin&Eozin (HE), Masson Trichrome, Verhoeff Acid Fuchsin, Transforming Growth Factor ß Receptor 1, Fibroblast Growth Factor, Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2, collagen type 1, aggrecan, and Matrix Metalloproteinase 2 were evaluated. Results: Ocular surface inflammation was significantly lower in normal control and autogenic PRF groups (p < .001). Graft was avascular and not integrated to scleral wound area in 25% rabbits of allogenic sclera group (p = .02), was out of the scleral wound in 33.3% rabbits of xenogenic HAM group (p > .05), all the grafts were at the normal location and viable in autogenic PRF group. The inflammation and vascularization in autogenic PRF group was significantly lower than negative control and xenogenic HAM groups in HE (p < .001). The collagen score of negative control and xenogenic HAM groups were significantly lower than normal control (p < .001) and autogenic PRF (p < .001) groups. There were insignificant differences between allogenic sclera and autogenic PRF groups (p > .05). For immunohistochemistry, the closest values to normal control group were detected in autogenic PRF group for all immunomarkers. Conclusion: Autogenic PRF showed superior features via its excellent anatomical and chemical composition for scleral regeneration when compared to single-layered xenogenic HAM and allogenic sclera grafts.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the histopathology of enucleated eye specimens. METHODS: The 10-year inventory was conducted at Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, and comprised all histopathology reports of enucleated eye specimens received from January 2007 to December 2016 by the Section of Histopathology, Department of Pathology. SPSS 19 was used for data analysis. RESULTS: A total of 232 ocular tissue specimens from 231 patients were evaluated. Ocular tumours were the most common histopathological diagnosis 186(80%). Among tumours, retinoblastoma was the most common 137(59%) followed by malignant melanoma 31(13%) and squamous cell carcinoma 15(6.5%). Overall, 16(6.9%) specimens had degenerative changes secondary to different ocular disorders. Staphyloma and Coat's disease was diagnosed in 3(1.3%) cases each. In 4(1.7%) cases, there was no formal diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: Early identification of tumours may allow for conservative management and limit the need for enucleations.

Benign tumors of the ciliary body are rare and may potentially be confused with uveal melanoma in clinical routine. Clinical findings rarely allow for safe differentiation. Hence primary excisions are frequent. We report the case of a patient with a benign ciliary tumor, which was observed over a total of 13 years and eventually underwent a local tumor resection.

Dengue is a mosquito-borne flavivirus disease affecting humans. The Aedes aegypti mosquito spreads it. Ophthalmic manifestations of dengue range from subconjunctival hemorrhage to optic neuropathy. Panophthalmitis in dengue fever is a rare finding. We report a case of a 22-year-old male having dengue fever, who presented with pain, redness, swelling and loss of vision in his right eye. He was diagnosed as panophthalmitis with subretinal hemorrhage and required right eye evisceration.
