BACKGROUND AND AIM: To describe a series of children with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and a plexiform neurofibroma of the orbit with ptosis who underwent a combined one-stage surgery for tumor debulking, lid reconstruction, and ptosis repair. METHODS: A retrospective review of 6 cases of combined one-step surgeries for orbital plexiform neurofibroma with ptosis. RESULTS: The study included 6 children (4 boys, mean age 3.4 years). Follow-up time was at least 9 months. All children had unilateral orbitofacial plexiform. All children underwent a combined one-stage surgery performed by a single surgeon for tumor debulking, lid reconstruction, and ptosis repair. There was significant improvement in upper lid height and lid contour postoperatively in all the patients. One patient had early recurrence and underwent another two surgeries in the following years. CONCLUSION: A combined surgical approach for orbital involvement in NF1 results in favorable immediate results, though late recurrence may require additional surgical interventions in the future.
