Histopathological Case Reports of Extraocular Tumors

The eye tumors are divided into intraocular and extraocular, and mainly involve lids, conjunctiva, cornea, and orbit. The authors analysed histopathological and clinical review of 9 cases of eye tumors that had experienced.

Congenital Blepbaroptosis

The surgical correct1on of blepharoptosis is accomplished by utilizing certain materials, the levator, the frontalis or the superior rectus muscle. The perfect postoperative results are complete cover of the eye on lid closure, adequate mobility when blinking, normal lid fold and no diplopia. The authors obtained good results in two children of congenital ptosis by attaching medial one third of superior rectus muscle to lid margin which was reported by Motais in 1897. The operation which use the superior rectus muscle is not favored recently because of complicationals such as partial corneal exposure, vertical diplopia, difficulty in blinking, and partial obliteration of the upper conjunctival fornix. But, the results of these simple physiologic proceures for binocular paralytic ptosis were remarkable without any complications as the aboves for 3 months of follow up check.

A Case of Retinitis Pigmentosa without Pigment

Retinitis pigmentosa without pigment is a varient of retinitis pigmentosa which is a hereditory disorder. It is characterized by decreased visual acuity, night blindness and contraction of visual field in both eyes. A 42-year old male patient was complained of decreased visual acuity and night blindness. And Pt was diagnosed as retinitis pigmentosa without pigment with clinical symptoms and signs, ophthalmoscopic findings, fluorescein angiography and electroretinogram. So authors report a case of retinitis pigmentosa without pigment and a brief reviews of literatures.
