RESUMEN
Superior orbital frontal clefts are one of the rare craniofacial clefts described by Tessier in 1976, and occur most often sporadically. They are numbered 9, 10 and 11 in this classification, and are located respectively laterally, in the middle and medially to the upper part of the orbit. Their clinical expression is variable on soft tissue and bone, with possible dissociation of involvement. They range from a simple aesthetic defect to an eyes functional prognosis. CT scans are systematically required in this context. Their management must be adapted to the polymorphism of the damage, and is based on multidisciplinary approach. In case of ocular risk, the eyelid reconstruction is an emergency. In all other cases, treatment is deferred, but must be carried out at an early stage to ensure the child's healthy development.
RESUMEN
Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are a family of benign neoplasms characterized by smooth muscle and melanocytic differentiation. Orbital cases are rare. A 9-year-old male presented with a slowly growing orbital mass. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a well-defined orbital mass without intracranial extension. The microscopic appearance of the complete resection specimen showed large nests of epithelioid cells with wide cytoplasm containing melanin pigment and round to oval nuclei with mild cytonuclear atypia and low mitotic activity. Immunohistochemistry was positive for HMB45 and negative for melanA, smooth muscle actin, desmin and S-100 protein. Pangenomic RNA-sequencing identified an in-frame NONO-TFE3 rearrangement, and clustering data showed that the tumor's gene expression profile was grouped with other previously studied PEComas. A diagnosis of orbital pigmented PEComa with uncertain malignant potential associated with a NONO-TFE3 rearrangement was made. There was no recurrence after 1 year of follow-up.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Removal of orbital foreign bodies is a surgical challenge. The purpose of this study is to report our experience in the removal of orbital foreign bodies and to evaluate the usefulness of various technological aids in their removal. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a single-center retrospective study at Nice University Hospital (France) from January 2017 to December 2023. All patients undergoing surgery for an orbital foreign body during the study period were included. Data recorded included the nature of the orbital foreign body, its size, location, surgical route, outcome (success, partial success, failure), and technological aids used (intraoperative navigation, intraoperative imaging scope, orbital magnet). Concurrently, we designed a dedicated orbital magnet, which was tested in the anatomy laboratory and in two of our patients. RESULTS: Six patients, all young men, were included during the study period. Removal was successful, partially successful, or unsuccessful in one-third of cases, respectively. Failure was associated with orbital foreign bodies located in the intraconal or posterior orbital space. Preoperatively, the use of a "low-artifact" scanner allowed us to better determine the exact size and shape of the orbital foreign body. Intraoperative navigation was not accurate enough, due to the mobility of the orbital bodies within the orbital fat. In our experience, intraoperative scope imaging was more accurate. The use of a dedicated orbital magnet was successfully tested in the anatomy laboratory and allowed the removal of a small orbital foreign body in one of our patients. Intraoperative surgical videos are provided. CONCLUSION: Vegetal orbital foreign bodies must be systematically removed. Removal of non-vegetal orbital foreign bodies should be considered on a case-by-case basis based on their size, best assessed using a "low artifact" scanner, their location, and their intrinsic ferromagnetism. Intraoperative navigation does not appear useful, while intraoperative scope imaging does. A dedicated orbital magnet might be helpful in removing ferromagnetic orbital foreign bodies. However, an orbital magnet may be ineffective in removing intraorbital bullets, since they are made primarily of an alloy of copper and lead.
RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: The study aimed to describe clinical indications for eye enucleation and exenteration, the occurrence of complications and long-term outcome in cattle, and examine owners' attitude towards enucleation and exenteration and their satisfaction with the surgical outcome. Medical records from the two veterinary teaching hospitals in Switzerland were reviewed to identify cattle that underwent unilateral enucleation or exenteration between January 2013 and December 2020. Data extracted included medical history, ocular examination, clinical diagnosis, surgical procedure including anesthesia, suture material and pattern used, complications, and treatment thereof. Long-term follow-up was evaluated via national animal database inquiries to determine survival time and via owners' interviews with the use of a standardized questionnaire that included questions regarding the occurrence of complications and reason for culling, production performances and perceived quality of life after surgery, concerns, factors affecting the decision to proceed with surgery, and general satisfaction with the outcome. Descriptive statistics, Fisher's exact tests and unpaired t-test were used to summarize the data and assess association between variables. Association was considered significant if p < 0,05. Thirty-eight cases were identified, with a median age of 5 years. More than half of the cases (55,3 %) were diagnosed with non-neoplastic ocular lesions represented by severe trauma with loss of globe content, globe rupture with history of infectious keratoconjunctivitis or hypopyon, or congenital malformations. The remaining cases were diagnosed with neoplastic lesions, including ocular squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), melanoma, or sarcoma. Complications following surgery were reported in 29 % of cases and included postoperative infection and recurrence of OSCC. There was no significant association between ocular diagnosis and the occurrence of postoperative complications or survival time. Surgery did not seem to influence the animals' postoperative production performance or the perceived quality of life. Most owners (92 %) were satisfied with the surgical outcome. The occurrence of postoperative complications leading to increased overall costs and culling was the main reason for lower owner satisfaction.
INTRODUCTION: La présente étude vise à décrire les indications cliniques de l'énucléation et de l'exentération de l'Åil, la survenue de complications et le résultat à long terme chez les bovins et à examiner l'attitude des propriétaires vis-à-vis de l'énucléation et de l'exentération et leur satisfaction quant au résultat chirurgical. Les dossiers médicaux des deux hôpitaux universitaires vétérinaires de Suisse ont été examinés pour identifier les bovins qui ont subi une énucléation ou une exentération unilatérale entre janvier 2013 et décembre 2020. Les données extraites comprenaient les antécédents médicaux, l'examen oculaire, le diagnostic clinique, la procédure chirurgicale y compris l'anesthésie, le matériel et le patron de suture utilisés, les complications et leur traitement. Le suivi à long terme a été évalué en utilisant la base de données nationale sur les animaux afin de déterminer la durée de survie, et par d'entretiens avec les propriétaires à l'aide d'un questionnaire standardisé qui comprenait des questions concernant l'apparition de complications et la raison de la réforme, les performances de production et la qualité de vie perçue après la chirurgie, les réserves, les facteurs affectant la décision de procéder à la chirurgie et la satisfaction générale du résultat. Les données ont été résumées à l'aide de statistiques descriptives et les différences éventuelles entre les variables ont été analysées à l'aide de tests exacts de Fisher et de tests t non appariés. L'association a été considérée comme significative si p < 0,05. Trente-huit cas ont été identifiés, avec un âge médian de 5 ans. Plus de la moitié des cas (55,3 %) ont été diagnostiqués avec des lésions oculaires non néoplasiques causées par un traumatisme grave avec perte du contenu du globe, une rupture du globe avec des antécédents de kératoconjonctivite infectieuse ou d'hypopion ou des malformations congénitales. Les autres cas ont été diagnostiqués comme des lésions néoplasiques, notamment carcinome épidermoïde oculaire, mélanome ou sarcome. Des complications après l'opération ont été signalées dans 29 % des cas, notamment infection postopératoire et récidive du carcinome épidermoïde oculaire. Il n'y avait pas d'association significative entre le diagnostic et l'apparition de complications postopératoires ou la durée de survie. L'intervention chirurgicale n'a pas semblé influencer les performances de production postopératoires des animaux ni la qualité de vie perçue. La plupart des propriétaires (92 %) étaient satisfaits du résultat de la chirurgie. L'apparition de complications postopératoires entraînant une augmentation des coûts globaux et l'abattage des animaux était la principale raison de la baisse de satisfaction des propriétaires.

PURPOSE: To report treatment outcomes of orbital tumors associated with Erdheim-Chester disease and to highlight the importance of systemic work-up in patients presenting with bilateral proptosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Three patients with Erdheim-Chester disease, whose initial manifestation was bilateral proptosis, were retrospectively studied. The course of onset, clinical, imaging and histopathological features, systemic associations and response to treatment were reviewed. The main outcome measures were Hertel measurements and orbital tumor regression on imaging studies. RESULTS: All patients presented with bilateral non-pulsatile proptosis resistant to retropulsion and headeache without specific localization. Magnetic resonance imaging studies showed bilateral intraconal orbital tumors. Incisional biopsy of these tumors demonstrated CD68+, CD1a-, and S100- histiocytic infiltrates consistent with the diagnosis of Erdheim-Chester disease. The BRAFV600E mutation was found in all cases. Systemic work-up revealed asymptomatic bony involvement in the lower extremities, perirenal fibrosis, central nervous system and cardiac involvement. All patients initially received pegylated interferon-α2a, which resulted in excellent responses except for the orbital tumors. Two patients were then treated with vemurafenib, which resulted in rapid regression of the orbital lesions. CONCLUSION: Pegylated interferon-α was highly effective in the control of cardiac, perirenal, skeletal and cerebral involvement but not the orbital tumors. The infiltrative orbital lesions of Erdheim-Chester disease would appear more responsive to vemurafenib.

HIV-related lymphoid hyperplasia has been exceptionally described outside lymph nodes. To our knowledge, 3 cases of nasopharyngeal localisation have been described in the literature. We report here an intracranial localisation with an important ophthalmological clinical impact. Our observation allows us to approach the differential diagnoses of intracranial lesions in the HIV-positive patient, to analyse the differential diagnoses of benign lymphoid hyperplasia and to discuss the therapeutic options.

PURPOSE: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign fibro-osseous developmental disorder of growing bone, sometimes involving the craniofacial skeleton (CFD). We wish to present a patient series with CFD of the orbital region and discuss treatment modalities. METHODS: Twelve patients were referred for orbital CFD in the Nantes University Hospital between 2000 and 2018 and studied according to the clinical parameters, radiological features, and modalities of treatment. RESULTS: The mean age was 25.6 years. Ten patients exhibited facial asymmetry with vertical globe dystopia (75%), proptosis (58%) and facial bump (50%). The disease was monostotic in 83% of patients, involving the frontal bone (25%), the sphenoidal bone (33%), the fronto-sphenoidal complex (25%), and the skull base (17%). Unilateral radiological proptosis was found in 7 patients, with a mean protrusion 3.9mm. The optic canal was involved in 75% of patients, with no functional impairment. Three patients were treated with bisphosphonate therapy to stop progression of the disease; 6 patients were given a bone remodelling procedure with good aesthetic outcomes. CONCLUSION: The orbit is a rare localization for FD causing aesthetic and functional disabilities. Medical and surgical treatment can be proposed as part of a multidisciplinary approach.

The goal of this study was to describe the epidemiological, etiological, clinical and therapeutic features and clinical course of orbital cellulitis in children, and to assess the risk factors for retroseptal involvement. METHODS: This was a retrospective study including 60 children (67 eyes) diagnosed with orbital cellulitis. Two groups were defined according to the clinical form: pre- or retroseptal. RESULTS: We studied 29 cases (34 eyes) of preseptal cellulitis and 31 cases (33 eyes) of retroseptal cellulitis. The mean age was 4 years. The male: female ratio was 1.3. The prescription of anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics prior to hospitalization was noted in respectively four and 10 patients. Eyelid edema was the principal sign (100% of cases); exophthalmia was noted in 19 eyes, ptosis in 27 eyes and chemosis in 10 eyes. Oculomotor disorders were present in 4 eyes. The mean C-reactive protein level was 53.15±27mg/l in preseptal cellulitis and 92.09±21mg/l in the retro-septal cases. Orbital computed tomography was performed in 31 patients and MRI in 5 patients. The pathway of entry of the orbital infection was primarily from the sinuses (23 cases). All of our patients had received broad spectrum intravenous antibiotic therapy. Three children had a cavernous sinus thrombosis and had been treated with anticoagulant therapy. Surgical drainage was performed in five patients. The course was favorable and without sequelae for all the patients. Two independent risk factors for retroseptal involvement were identified: the prescription of anti-inflammatory drugs prior to hospitalization, and sinus involvement. CONCLUSION: Orbital cellulitis in children is a serious infection and requires close collaboration between the ophthalmologist, otolaryngologist, and pediatrician in order to be diagnosed and treated early so as to improve the prognosis for vision and life.

OBJECTIVE: To provide a systematic review on ophthalmologic presentations of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) in conjunction with a case report of primary orbital involvement by this tumor. METHODS: A thorough electronic search on PubMed, Medline, Scopus, EMBASE and web of science databases was performed. All available data from reported cases along with our described case were extracted and analyzed. RESULTS: We describe a 66-year-old male with primary orbital DFSP who was managed by total excision of the tumor without recurrence after 18 months of follow-up. In the literature, 14 studies reporting 15 cases were identified and reviewed. Our review topics included epidemiology, clinical presentations, pathologic features, differential diagnosis, imaging, treatment and prognosis. CONCLUSION: Rarely, but crucially, ophthalmologists may encounter DFSP in the orbital or periorbital area. They should be familiar with the pathologic nature and treatment options for this tumor. This diagnosis should be kept in mind when approaching a case with a non-tender, nodular, firm, mass or more rarely an indenting orbital mass.

INTRODUCTION: Hyper-IgG4 syndrome is a rare cause of bilateral proptosis. It must always be considered after ruling out orbital lymphoma. CASE REPORT: We report a case of progressive bilateral proptosis for 4 years in a 34-year-old man. Orbital MRI showed an infiltrative process extending to the orbital fat, extraocular muscles and lacrimal glands. Lacrimal gland biopsy with immunohistochemical study showed a lymphoplasmocytic infiltrate rich in IgG4 and fibrosis. The diagnosis of orbital hyper-IgG4 syndrome was suggested. The patient responded well to systemic steroid treatment. DISCUSSION: Orbital hyper-IgG4 syndrome manifests most often as pseudo-tumoral bilateral proptosis. Elevated IgG4 levels are neither sensitive nor specific. Biopsy with immunohistochemical study is the key to diagnosis. Systemic steroid treatment is the gold standard, but recurrences may occur.

BACKGROUND: Idiopathic orbital inflammatory syndrome (IOIS) is an inflammatory condition of unknown etiology. The inflammation may affect all the structures within the orbit (anterior, diffuse, apical, myositic, dacryoadenitis) and corresponds to uniquely orbital inflammation without an identifiable local cause or systemic disease. The goal of this study is to describe the clinical and radiographic characteristics of IOIS and discuss the role of orbital biopsy in this condition. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This is a retrospective review of the charts of 24 patients diagnosed with IOIS at Fattouma Bourguiba hospital, Monastir, Tunisia, from January 2007 to December 2015. This study included all patients with IOIS and a minimum follow-up of six months. All patients had a complete ophthalmological examination and orbital and head CT scan and/or MRI. A work-up was performed in all cases to rule out local causes and systemic disease. Only 11 patients underwent biopsy. The diagnosis of the clinical entity IOIS was made according to the Rootman criteria. Oral steroids were the first line therapy. A bolus of intravenous methylprednisolone was administered first in vision-threatening cases. Response to treatment was defined as disappearance of signs and symptoms of IOIS. RESULTS: Orbital pain was the most common symptom (62.5%), followed by proptosis and decreased vision (37.5% each). Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was greater than 5/10 in 70.7% of patients. Lacrimal gland enlargement was observed in 3 patients. Oculomotor disorders were present in 70% of cases and 20.8% of patients had compressive optic neuropathy. Orbital imaging showed, in most cases, oculomotor muscle inflammation (87.5%) involving particularly the superior rectus muscle (54.2%) and inflammation of orbital fat (66.7%). Fifty percent had myositic inflammation. Biopsy was performed in 11 patients, showing nonspecific inflammation (n=10) and the sclerosing form (n=1). A total of 83.3% of patients received oral corticosteroids for a mean duration of 5.5 months. CONCLUSION: IOIS is a diagnosis of exclusion, based on history, clinical course, response to steroid therapy, laboratory tests, or even biopsy in selected cases. Orbital imaging provides valuable clues for diagnosis of IOIS and for identification of affected structures. Prolonged steroid therapy is necessary as IOIS classically responds to steroids; nevertheless, partial recovery or relapses often occur.

INTRODUCTION: Reconstruction of craniofacial defects due to traumatic injuries is a challenge for a reconstructive surgeon, given the functional impact, the aesthetic impact and the geometric complexity of the craniofacial skeleton. The use of cutting and repositioning guides enables a new approach from the craniofacial reconstruction with bone grafts on measure. We are presented to illustrate this technique the case of a patient. OBSERVATION: The patient was 50 years old, he presented a traumatic facial sequelar: a left frontal craniofacial deformation, an enlarged left orbit with enophthalmos and valgus left zygoma. The patient had a permanent diplopia, an important aesthetic and social gene impeding daily life. Surgical planning was performed for optimal care. We performed a cranioplasty frontotemporal by bone parietal duplication, osteotomy of zygoma and intra-orbital bone graft customized using cutting guides. The bone pieces were positioned with the repositioning books. DISCUSSION: This presentation illustrates a novel application of cutting guides. This technique has the advantage of using customized autologous bone. This is the gold standard, it requires surgical experience.

Esthetic and functional surgeries in the periocular region fall into the domain of oculoplastic, or plastic and reconstructive surgery and otorhinolaryngology. Oculoplasty is the largest surgical spectrum in ophthalmology including eyelids, orbits and the lacrimal system. Our purpose was to study the frequency of eyelid, lacrimal and orbital (oculoplastic) surgery at the CHU IOTA. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective medical chart review of all the patients who underwent oculoplastic surgery was conducted from October 2015 to September 2016. RESULTS: A total of 233 patients were included with 52% female and 48% male. Patients were 37 years old on average. In total, the surgery was performed on the eyelids in83 cases (35.6%), the orbits in 113 cases (48.5%) and the lachrymal system in 37 cases (15.9%).Eyelid surgery commonly resulted from eye trauma (43,3%), followed by malpositions (30,2%). Mutilating surgery accounted for 92% of the orbital surgery. External dacryocystorhinostomy was the main lacrimal surgery (42%) followed by canalicular lacerations 25%. CONCLUSION: Oculoplasticsurgeryoccupies an important place in the surgical activities of the ophthalmologic University hospital despite a larger volume for cataractsurgery. Our studydoesn't highlight the outcome of the surgery itself but the epidemiology to help decision makers in their eye health policy including the reduction of mutilating surgery and oculoplastic training.
La chirurgie esthétique et fonctionnelle de la région périoculaire est du domaine de l'oculoplastie, ainsi que de la chirurgie plastique et reconstructive et de l'otorhinolaryngologie. L'oculoplastie constitue le plus large éventail chirurgical en ophtalmologie regroupant la paupière, l'orbite et le système lacrymal. OBJECTIF: Etudier la fréquence des procédures chirurgicales orbito-palpébrales et lacrymales (oculoplasties) dans un centre de troisième référence. MATÉRIELS ET MÉTHODES: Il s'agissait d'une étude rétrospective des dossiers de patients opérés pour pathologies oculoplastiques d'octobre 2015 à septembre 2016. RÉSULTATS: Au total 233 patients ont été inclus dont 52% de sexe féminin et 48% de sexe masculin avec un âge moyen de 37 ans ; parmi lesquels 83 cas (35,6%) de chirurgie palpébrale, 113 cas (48,5%) de chirurgie orbitaire et 37 cas (15,9%) chirurgie lacrymale.La chirurgie palpébrale était dominée parréparationdesplaies traumatiques (43,3%), suivi des malpositions (30,2%). La chirurgie mutilante constituait 92% de la chirurgie orbitaire. La dacryocystorhinostomie par voie externe était la principale chirurgie lacrymale soit 42%, suivie des lacérations canaliculaires 25%. CONCLUSION: Notre étude ne met pas en exergue le résultat de la chirurgie elle-même, mais l'épidémiologie du traitement chirurgical afin d'aider les décideurs dans leur politique de santé oculaire notamment sur la réduction de la chirurgie mutilante et la formation oculoplastique.
RESUMEN
Orbito-palpebral vascular pathology represents 10% of all the diseases of this area. The lesion may be discovered during a brain CT scan or MRI, or because it causes clinical symptoms such as orbital mass, visual or oculomotor alteration, pain, proptosis, or acute bleeding due to a complication of the lesion (hemorrhage, thrombosis). We present these lesions using an anatomical, clinical, imaging and therapeutic approach. We distinguish four different entities. Vascular tumors have common imaging characteristics (hypersignal on T2 sequence, contrast enhancement, abnormal vascularization well depicted with ultrasound and Doppler, and possible bleeding). The main lesions are cavernous hemangiomas, the most frequent lesion of that type during adulthood; infantile hemangiomas, the most frequent vascular tumor in children; and more seldomly, hemangioperitcytomas. True vascular malformations are divided according to their flow. Low flow lesions are venous (orbital varix), capillarovenous or lymphatic (lymphangioma). High flow malformations, more rare, are either arteriovenous or arterial malformations (aneurisms). Complex malformations include both low and high flow elements. Lesions leading to modifications of the orbito-palpebral blood flow are mainly due to cavernous sinus abnormalities, either direct carotid-cavernous fistula affecting young adults after severe head trauma, or dural fistula, more insidious, found in older adults. The last section is devoted to congenital syndromic vascular malformations (Sturge-Weber, Rendu-Olser ). This classification allows for a better understanding of these pathologies and their specific imaging features.

Radiation-induced damage of ocular, orbital and eyelid structures are mainly reported for the optic nerve, retina, lens and lacrimal gland. Dose-volume relationships are, however, inaccurate due to the small volume of most of the organs at risk involved and limited ability of irradiation techniques to spare these structures in the pre-IMRT (intensity-modulated radiation therapy) era. The ability of newest radiation techniques including IMRT and proton therapy to generate steep dose gradients may yield more accurate models in the future. Some toxicities are severe and irreversible, leading to vision loss, as in the case of radiation-induced optic neuropathy for which curative treatments are suboptimal. Other toxicities can lead to reversible vision loss but can be surgically corrected, as is the case for radiation-induced cataract. In this paper, we will review the dose effects for the ocular; orbital and eyelid structures.

Aneurysmal bone cyst is a rare benign bone neoplasm of unknown cause. The most commonly affected anatomical sites are the vertebral column and long bones. We report two uncommon cases of primary orbital aneurysmal bone cyst presenting as an acute orbital compartment syndrome due to subperiosteal hemorrhage. Case 1 is a 45-year-old woman. Imaging studies revealed a small cystic frontal bone tumour associated with a subperiosteal hematoma. The patient achieved full visual recovery after drainage of the hematoma, with no recurrence after treatment. Case 2 is a 74-year-old woman whose visual acuity was light perception due to severe papilledema. Imaging studies of the orbit revealed a large cystic frontal bone tumor associated with a subperiosteal hematoma causing globe and optic nerve compression. Preoperative arteriography showed a moderate vascular blush. Drainage of the hematoma was performed. A local recurrence with hematoma formation occurred two years after the surgery.

The surgical management of posterior orbital tumors is complex because it is an anatomical area located at the borders between the face and the skull base. The goal of the procedures carried-out in this area is to resect the tumor while preserving vision by using the safest possible approach. The aim of our work was to determine, in the light of our experience and of a review of the literature, the advantages and drawbacks of the numerous approaches described.

Orbital tumors are a rather frequent pathology. Their diagnosis and treatment may be difficult. They can be benign or malignant. All the tissues of the orbit can give rise to a tumor, resulting in their large number. Among the benign tumors, we have meningiomas and cavernous hemangiomas, and for the malignant tumors, lymphomas, metastasis, ENT tumors and lacrimal gland tumors in the adult. Usually the signs are nonspecific, with proptosis, oculomotor disturbance, inflammatory signs, pain and sometimes a mass. Imaging (CT, MRI and color Doppler ultrasound) shows the tumor, its location, extent and possible metastases. Biopsy and anatomic and cytopathologic examination confirm the type of benign or malignant tumor. Based on these three elements: clinical appearance, imaging and histology, the tumor will be treated, usually by a surgical approach according to the recommendations of a multidisciplinary tumor conference. Radiation therapy and chemotherapy may supplement the treatment.

INTRODUCTION: Evisceration consists in removal of the orbital content whilst preserving the sclera. It allows for good esthetic results after fitting of an eye prosthesis. TECHNICAL NOTE: The "on the table" evisceration technique consists in 3 operative steps: (1) removal of the eyeball after optic nerve section (enucleation); (2) removal of the content of the globe on the operating table (evisceration) and (3) implantation in the orbital cavity of a hydroxyapatite orbital implant wrapped into the sclera in order to keep the orbital volume. DISCUSSION: Evisceration is indicated in blind, painful and unaesthetic eyes that cannot be preserved. The "on the table" evisceration technique is an easy procedure allowing for a good volume restauration and for supporting a mobile eye prosthesis thanks to the placement of a hydroxyapatite orbital implant wrapped into the patient's own sclera and to muscular re-insertion.
