ABSTRACT
Background: Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) comprises neoplasm arising from the ocular surface, which includes conjunctiva, cornea, and limbus and ranges from mild dysplasia to invasive squamous cell carcinoma. Purpose: The aim of this work was to study the spectrum of OSSN based on histopathological analysis. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study comprising 776 histopathologically diagnosed cases of OSSN from January 2004 to December 2014. Results: The mean age of presentation of OSSN was 45 years (median, 45 years; 2 to 87 years) with male preponderance (74%). The most common age group of presentation was 41–60 years (n = 299; 39%). The most common type of OSSN was invasive squamous cell carcinoma seen in 50% (n = 383) eyes followed by severe dysplasia/carcinoma in situ in 31% (n = 250) eyes. Tumor infiltration at base was seen in 16% (n = 124), positive margins in 32% (n = 248), scleral infiltration in 14% (n = 109), intraocular extension in 3% (n = 23), and orbital extension in 4% (n = 26) eyes. OSSN was associated with actinic keratosis in 21% (n = 165) cases. Conclusion: Based on histopathology, invasive squamous cell carcinoma is the most common form of OSSN in the Asian Indian population.
ABSTRACT
Purpose: To study optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) features of circumscribed choroidal hemangioma (CCH) following treatment with photodynamic therapy (PDT) and transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT). Methods: A retrospective chart review of consecutive patients treated for CCH over 2 years (May 2016�April 2018). The investigations, in addition to comprehensive eye examination, included color fundus photography, B-scan ultrasonography, OCT, and OCT-A. Results: The study included 16 eyes of 16 patients (9 males and 7 females). The mean age at presentation was 43.5 � 9 years (range 33�62 years). Macula (n = 6) and superior arcade (n = 5) were the common tumor locations. Twelve eyes received multiple treatment sessions: TTT (seven eyes; mean 2.4 sessions) and PDT (five eyes; mean 2 sessions). Four eyes were observed because vision was not threatened. Pretreatment OCT features were Bruch's membrane atrophy (15 eyes), retinal pigment epithelial atrophy (13 eyes), outer retinal abnormalities (12 eyes), and macular subretinal fluid (12 eyes). Pretreatment OCT-A features were complete loss of choriocapillaris (16 eyes), irregularly arranged fine arborizing vessels (11 eyes), and more than 50% signal void hyporeflective areas (12 eyes). Posttreatment OCT-A showed persistence of choriocapillaris loss, flat scar with fibrosis and thinning of choroid in all eyes treated with TTT, and persistence of deeper choroidal vessels and no loss of choriocapillaris in eyes treated with PDT. Conclusion: OCT and OCT-A help understand the structural outcome following PDT and TTT in circumscribed choroidal hemangioma.
ABSTRACT
Purpose: To describe the outcomes of a patient-specific implant (PSI), fabricated using a three-dimensional (3D) printed orbital template and placed in the basin of the inferior orbital fissure to correct inferotemporally migrated spherical orbital implant. Methods: This is a single-center, prospective, consecutive, interventional, case series of six patients, with non-porous, spherical, orbital implant migration that underwent implant recentration surgically with a novel technique. Migration was subclassified either as decentration that did not affect the prosthetic retention or as displacement that affected the prosthetic retention in the eye socket. Only implant displacements were treated. The primary outcome measure was centration of the implant clinically and radiologically, with ability to retain the prosthesis. Results: At a mean follow-up of 21 months, all six orbital spherical implants remained centered. There were no cases of extrusion, exposure, or migration of either implants. There were no cases of PSI displacement. Additional procedures to optimize the aesthetic outcome of the customized ocular prosthesis (COP) required were simultaneous fornix formation suture in three patients, subsequent fornix formation with mucus membrane graft in two patients, and levator resection and sulcus hyaluronic acid gel injection in one patient each. The mean PSI implant weight was 2.66 ± 0.53 g. The mean COP weight was 2.2 ± 0.88 g postoperatively. The median patient satisfaction with the procedure was 9 on 10. Conclusion: A 3D printing-assisted PSI placed in the basin of the inferior orbital fissure allows recentration of the migrated implant over a follow-up of 21 months without complications.
