Application of fat redistribution combined with shortening of upper eyelid levator muscle in repair of wide double-eyelid / 中华医学美学美容杂志

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of topical fat redistribution in combination with shortening of upper eyelid levator muscle in patients with excessively wide palpebral fissure after double-eyelid operation.Methods Twenty patients with excessively wide palpebral fissure after undergoing double-eyelid operation were selected.The double-eyelid line was aesthetically re-designed,the skin or incisional scar between the original and new double-eyelid lines was excised,and the scarring adhesion among different tissues was fully isolated.The fat tissues within the orbital septum,deep orbit and anterior orbital septum combined with ROOF reconstruction were performed to block the adhesion tissues,shortening of levator muscle of the upper eyelid was equally conducted to enhance the cosmetic effect.Results Seventeen patients were satisfied with the cosmetic appearance following once double-eyelid operation.Two cases underwent twice operations due to different height between bilateral papebral fissures.One patient was unsatisfied with the cosmetic appearance.Conclusions Fat redistribution in combination with shortening of levator muscle of the upper eyelid can not only repair excessively wide palpebral fissure complicated with ptosis and upper eyelid depression,but also enhance the exposure rate of the cornea and increase the cosmetic appearance,which is consistent with contem porary aesthetic perception.

Resección modificada de la aponeurosis del elevador del párpado superior / Modified resection of the upper eyelid levator aponeurosis

Objetivo: Describir la utilidad de la técnica de resección modificada de la aponeurosis. Método: Se realizó un estudio observacional, descriptivo y prospectivo de serie de casos con un solo grupo de control, de 13 pacientes (17 párpados), con ptosis aponeurótica sin desinserción, de febrero a diciembre del año 2017, en el Instituto Cubano de Oftalmología "Ramón Pando Ferrer". Resultados: El 61,5 por ciento fue del sexo masculino y el 30,7 por ciento eran mayores de 60 años. El 30,7 por ciento presentaba ptosis senil y el 47,1 por ciento era severa. La función del músculo elevador resultó buena en el 64,7 por ciento y se logró la corrección quirúrgica en el 88,3 por ciento. Se presentó el 30 por ciento de complicaciones. Conclusiones: La ptosis resulta más frecuente en pacientes mayores de 60 años del sexo masculino, con predominio de la ptosis involutivo-senil, unilateral y severa. La técnica de resección modificada de la aponeurosis resulta efectiva en la mayoría de los casos, en los que se presenta un mínimo de complicaciones. En los pacientes en quienes no se logra la corrección, esto ha estado determinado por una débil inserción de la aponeurosis al tarso, dado por el sangramiento profuso que impide la correcta visualización de los planos quirúrgicos(AU)

Objective: Describe the usefulness of the technique of modified aponeurosis resection. Methods: An observational descriptive prospective case-series study was conducted with a single control group of 13 patients (17 eyelids) with aponeurotic ptosis without disinsertion, from February to December 2017 at "Ramón Pando Ferrer" Cuban Institute of Ophthalmology. Results: 61.5 percent of the study sample were male and 30.7 percent were aged over 60 years. 30.7 percent had senile ptosis, and in 47.1 percent it was severe. Levator muscle function was good in 64.7 percent of the cases, and surgical correction was achieved in 88.3 percent. Complications occurred in 30 percent. Conclusions: Ptosis is more common among male patients aged over 60 years, with a predominance of senile involutional, unilateral and severe ptosis. The technique of modified aponeurosis resection is effective in most cases, with minimum complications. In a number of patients correction is not achieved, due to a weak insertion of the aponeurosis into the tarsus, given the profuse bleeding, which hampers correct visualization of the surgical planes(AU)

Clinical effect of combined fascial sheath suspension with upper blepharoplasty to treat congenital ptosis in Uygur population / 中华医学美学美容杂志

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of combined fascial sheath suspension with upper blepharoplasty to treat congenital ptosis in Uygur population.Methods 42 patients with congenital ptosis (63 eyes) were selected during December 2015 to September 2017 in the People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.Combined fascia sheath suspension with levator leva tor shortening was used for the treatment.The postoperative correction effect was observed and the patients were followed up for the complications and satisfaction.Results The moderate and severe ptosis was improved and the effective rate was 95.0％,and so the surgical treatment was effective.The incidence of adverse reactions and the recurrence rate of the disease were significantly lower than those of other procedures.Conclusions CFS plus LM treatment for severe ptosis has obvious surgical results in Uygur population,and the satisfactory rate is higher than moderate patients.In addition,the incidence of orbital regurgitation in moderate patients is lower than that in severe patients.

Clinical study on conjoint fascial sheath suspension in the treatment of moderate and severe ptosis / 局解手术学杂志

Objective To investigate whether the conjoint combined with fascial sheath( CFS) suspension can be used as an effective method for correction of moderate and severe ptosis. Methods Thirty-five patients (39 eyes) with moderate or severe ptosis were treated in our hospital from January 2014 to March 2017 by means of CFS suspension,frontalis suspension and shortening of levator palpebrae superior-is,and all the patients were followed up for 3～12 months. Results The CFS suspension and the other two operations appeared effective;and compared with the other two methods,the difference was statistically significant(P<0. 05). The CFS suspension for the treatment of moderate and severe ptosis with a higher positive rate(95％) and the positive rate of the other two methods was 67％. In terms of complications,the CFS suspension showed eyelid dysraphism incidence rate was exposure keratitis occurred in 85. 7％ and entropion occurrence rate of 4. 7％;with the other two methods,the surgical eyelid dysraphism occurred in 100％ and the conjunctival prolapse occurred in 5. 6％. Conclusion The CFS suspension in correction of moderate and severe ptosis has the advantages of less trauma,less complications and good correction effect.
