RESUMEN
La orbitopatía endocrina es una enfermedad inflamatoria de origen autoinmune que se asocia a trastornos metabólicos de la glándula tiroides caracterizada por exoftalmos, asociado a acúmulo de células linfoides y otros en la grasa orbitaria o engrosamiento del vientre de los músculos extraoculares con predominio de rectos superior, recto medio, inferior y retracción palpebral por compromiso del elevador del parpado. En etapas iníciales se presenta dolor crónico de carácter inflamatorio recidivante, disfunción de la película lagrimal y exposición y en etapas finales fibrosis de estructuras orbitales, leucomas y perforaciones oculares. Complementario al manejo endocrinológico y al manejo antiinflamatorio y del ojo seco, se han adoptado medidas quirúrgicas para el manejo del síndrome de dolor crónico, exposición y cosmesis. Queremos así dar a conocer nuestros avances preliminares en el tratamiento quirúrgico de esta enfermedad, mostrando los resultados con la utilización de una técnica combinada de descompresión endoscópica etmoidal trasnasal para la pared medial de la órbita, junto con un abordaje transconjuntival para el manejo del piso orbitario en toda su extensión.

Método:

Proponemos una técnica combinada conjunta multidisciplinaria de otorrinolaringología y oftalmología y mostrando los primeros resultados en una experiencia de 6 años.

Conclusiones:

Nuestros resultados son comparables a los reportados en la literatura mundial con técnicas convencionales o endoscópicas (1, 2, 3). Resaltamos la ventaja de la excelente exposición anatómica a nivel del piso orbitario y el manejo del nervio infraorbitario sin distopia y la ausencia de complicaciones por sangrado etmoidal o fistulas de LCR.
ABSTRACT
Endocrine orbitopathy is an inflammatory autoimmune disease, associated to metabolic disorders of the thyroid gland. Its main characteristic is the presence of exophthalmoses associated to the accumulation of lymphocytes and others in the orbital fat or by the thickening of the womb of the extra ocular muscles with predominance of superior rectus, medial rectus, and inferior rectus and eyelid retraction due to the compromise of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle. There is some chronic pain featuring some relapsing swelling, there can be malfunctioning and exposition of the lachrymal screen during the early stages of the disease, and during the final stages of the disease there can be some fibrosis in the orbit structures, leukoma as well as ocular perforations. As a complement to the treatment from the endocrine standpoint, and to the anti inflammatory and dry eye treatments, some surgical measures have been adopted in order to treat the exposition, cosmesis and chronic pain syndrome. We would like to disclose our preliminary advancements to surgically treat this disease, by showing the results obtained from using a combined transnasal ethmoidal endoscopic decompression technique for the medial rectus of the orbit together with the trans conjunctival approach to treat the entire orbital floor.

Method:

We are proposing an Otorhinolaryngology and Ophthalmology combined multi- disciplined technique and exhibiting the first set of results in a 6 year experience.

Conclusions:

Our results can be compared to the ones that have been reported on both conventional and endoscopic techniques in the literature available around the world. (1, 2, 3) We want to highlight the excellent anatomical exhibition at orbital floor level as well as the handling of the infra orbital nerve with no dystopia and the lack of complications due to ethmoidal bleeding or fistulas to the LCR.
