Radiation-Induced Acquired Lacrimal Drainage Obstructions: Management and Outcomes.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the management and outcomes of patients with radiation-induced acquired lacrimal duct obstructions (RALDO). METHODS: A retrospective chart review from July 2018 to December 2023 of all cases undergoing surgical intervention for RALDO by a single surgeon. Data collected included demographics, tumor type and anatomic location, radiation treatment (including radiation type, dosage, and duration), interval between radiation and reported onset of epiphora, oculoplastic clinical examination, management, and outcomes. Lacrimal irrigation was done prior to surgery in all patients. RESULTS: Seventeen eyes of 16 patients with a mean age at presentation of 63.3 years and over half the patients being females (56.3%) were included in the study. The right lacrimal drainage system (LDS) was involved in 4 (23.6%), and the left side was involved in 13 (76.4%). The mean onset of epiphora symptoms after radiation was 9.5 months. The underlying tumor type were intraocular having uveal melanoma in four, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma in 2, basal cell carcinoma involving forehead and nose in one and sino-nasal indications present in 8 patients. One patient had metastasis to the orbit and eyelid. Four patients (25%) received external beam radiotherapy (XRT) (one case had bilateral LDS involvement), 6 patients (37.5%) received intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), 5 patients (31.25%) received proton beam irradiation (PBI), and one (6.25%) received stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). Mean radiation dosage was 61.31 Gy in 15 patients (data was missing in 1 patient). Punctum was effaced in 3, canalicular stenosis in 1, proximal canalicular obstruction in 8, distal canalicular obstruction in 2, and nasolacrimal duct obstruction (NLDO) in 3. Treatment was based on the site and nature of obstruction and varied from minimally invasive techniques like serial dilatation with bicanalicular silicone tube or Guibor tube to surgical interventions like dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) or conjunctivo-dacryocystorhinostomy (C-DCR). Only 10% with primary lacrimal intubation had good response. Of the six cases that underwent C-DCR with Jones tube either as primary or secondary procedure, four cases showed improvement in epiphora (67%). Three with NLDO did well after external DCR. In total, four patients had a secondary procedure after the first failed while 7 with failed initial surgery elected against secondary surgery. The mean follow-up was 9.6 months (range 2-24 months). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with RALDO, salvage treatment with silicone lacrimal intubation has poor results, CDCR with Jones tube has better results, although imperfect and in cases with NLDO, DCR has good outcomes.

Pharmacophore Virtual Screening Identifies Riboflavin as an Inhibitor of the Schistosome Cathepsin B1 Protease with Antiparasitic Activity.

Schistosomiasis is a neglected disease of poverty that affects over 200 million people worldwide and relies on a single drug for therapy. The cathepsin B1 cysteine protease (SmCB1) of Schistosoma mansoni has been investigated as a potential target. Here, a structure-based pharmacophore virtual screening (VS) approach was used on a data set of approved drugs to identify potential antischistosomal agents targeting SmCB1. Pharmacophore (PHP) models underwent validation through receiver operating characteristics curves achieving values >0.8. The data highlighted riboflavin (RBF) as a compound of particular interest. A 1 µs molecular dynamics simulation demonstrated that RBF altered the conformation of SmCB1, causing the protease's binding site to close around RBF while maintaining the protease's overall integrity. RBF inhibited the activity of SmCB1 at low micromolar values and killed the parasite in vitro. Finally, in a murine model of S. mansoni infection, oral administration of 100 mg/kg RBF for 7 days significantly decreased worm burdens by ∼20% and had a major impact on intestinal and fecal egg burdens, which were decreased by ∼80%.

Intraoperative Image Guidance in Orbital and Lacrimal Surgery: A Report by the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

PURPOSE: To review the efficacy and safety of the use of intraoperative image guidance (IIG) in orbital and lacrimal surgery. METHODS: A literature search of the PubMed database was last conducted in November 2023 for English-language original research that assessed the use of any image guidance system in orbital and lacrimal surgery that included at least 5 patients. The search identified 524 articles; 94 were selected for full-text analysis by the panel. A total of 32 studies met inclusion criteria. The panel methodologist assigned a level II rating to 2 studies and a level III rating to 30 studies. No study met the criteria for level I evidence. RESULTS: Procedures reported on were as follows: fracture repair (n = 14), neoplasm and infiltrate biopsy or excision (n = 6), orbital decompression for Graves ophthalmopathy (n = 3), dacryocystorhinostomy (n = 1), and mixed etiology and procedures (n = 8). Four studies used more than one IIG system. One study that met level II evidence criteria compared the outcomes of orbital fracture repair with IIG (n = 29) and without IIG (n = 29). Borderline better outcomes were reported in the IIG group: 2% versus 10% with diplopia (P = 0.039) and 3% versus 10% with enophthalmos (P = 0.065). The other level II study compared the repair of fractures with navigation (n = 20) and without (n = 20). The group in which navigation was used had a measured mean volume reduction of 3.82 cm3 compared with 3.33 cm3 (P = 0.02), and there was a greater measured reduction in enophthalmos in the navigation group of 0.72 mm (P = 0.001). Although the remaining 30 assessed articles failed to meet level II criteria, all alleged a benefit from IIG. No complications were reported. CONCLUSIONS: A small number of comparative studies suggest that there are improved outcomes when IIG is used in orbital fracture repair, but each study suffers from various limitations. No high-quality comparative studies exist for the management of lacrimal surgery, neoplastic disease, or decompression. Complications attributable to the use of IIG have not been identified, and IIG has not been analyzed for cost savings.

An Evidence-Based Approach to Diagnosing Patients Presenting With Orbital Inflammatory Syndromes (An American Ophthalmological Society Thesis).

PURPOSE: The initial management of patients presenting with orbital inflammatory syndromes varies-with some pursuing a diagnostic workup while others treat without any testing. The evidence behind this rationale is limited. A review of patients with orbital inflammation is performed with an analysis of diagnostic testing to develop a workflow for such patients. DESIGN: A retrospective review of patients presenting with acute orbital inflammation at a single institution from 2011 to 2020 was conducted. METHODS: Orbital imaging was required for inclusion. Patients with high suspicion of neoplasm, bacterial infection, vascular malformation, or thyroid eye disease were excluded. A review of presenting clinical findings, laboratory workup, orbital imaging, and biopsy were performed. Statistical analysis was performed identifying statistically significant diagnostic and treatment maneuvers. RESULTS: In total, 172 patients met inclusion criteria (66% female, mean age 46 years). The primary clinical presentation was myositis, dacryoadenitis, and infiltrative in 67, 73, and 32 patients (39.0%, 43.0%, 18.6%, respectively). Laboratory studies were conducted in 145 (84%) while biopsy was performed in 55 (32%). Specific orbital inflammation (SOI) was diagnosed in 29 (16.9%) with the most frequent diagnoses being sarcoidosis, IgG4-related disease, inflammatory bowel disease, and systemic lupus erythematosus. The majority (147, 85.5%) was initially treated with steroids, but steroid-sparing agent use was statistically higher in patients with SOI. CONCLUSIONS: In patients presenting with orbital inflammatory syndromes, distinguishing myositis, dacryoadenitis, and infiltrative disease has workup and differential diagnosis impacts. Because SOI is relatively common, sequelae of SOI, and potential steroid-sparing therapy needs, diagnosis via an evidence-based systemic approach is critical.

Ocular lichen planus as a cause of recurrent restrictive strabismus.

We report the case of an 80-year-old man with restrictive strabismus in lateral gaze following multiple oculoplastic procedures for idiopathic epiphora. Despite excellent initial response to nasal conjunctival recession with lysis of adhesions and a miminal recession of the medial rectus muscle, the patient suffered recurrence of diplopia associated with limitation of abduction due to aggressive, deep, subconjunctival scarring. Given the history of oral lichen planus (LP), the patient was diagnosed with ocular involvement of LP. He underwent a second conjunctival recession, this time accompanied by an intensive LP treatment regimen. Nine months after surgery, he remained diplopia free and orthophoric in primary gaze. Surgeons treating restrictive strabismus in patients with LP should consider implementing systemic and topical immunosuppressive treatment simultaneously with surgical management.

A New Patient-reported Outcomes Measure for Surgically Treated Epiphora: Tearing Assessment and Rating Scale-12 (TEARS-12).

BACKGROUND: No widely accepted, validated instrument currently exists to measure clinical outcomes in patients who undergo dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) for treatment of epiphora. OBJECTIVE: To develop a patient-reported outcome measure applicable to this population. METHODS: Psychometric evaluations, consultation with experts, and review of the literature informed item generation of a 12-question questionnaire to incorporate the most relevant symptoms experienced by patients with nasolacrimal duct obstruction. This questionnaire, known as the Tearing Assessment and Rating Scale-12 (TEARS-12), was administered to 32 patients before and after intervention, in the form of endoscopic DCR. Statistical analysis was performed to measure internal consistency, responsiveness, and test-retest reliability. RESULTS: Pre-operative and post-operative TEARS-12 scores (28.2 [standard error (SE) 3.19] vs 11.8 [SE 3.25], respectively, P = 0.001) demonstrated improved patient outcome within 6 weeks following endoscopic DCR. Cronbach's alpha for the questionnaire was 0.90, indicating high overall reliability. Additionally, each question demonstrated internal reliability, with a corrected item-total correlation greater than 0.30. The intraclass correlation between the two pre-operative scores was 0.858 (P < 0.001), indicating high test-retest reliability. CONCLUSION: TEARS-12 is a statistically valid, easy-to-administer instrument to measure clinical outcomes in patients who undergo endoscopic DCR.

Change in upper eyelid position after teprotumumab treatment for thyroid eye disease.

PURPOSE: Despite the high prevalence, treatment challenges, and significant impact of eyelid retraction on vision and quality of life among patients with thyroid eye disease, the effects of teprotumumab on eyelid retraction are not fully understood. This study evaluated change in upper eyelid position after teprotumumab. METHODS: A retrospective study of all patients who completed eight teprotumumab infusions at one institution from January 1 2020 to December 31 2022. Primary outcome was change in upper eyelid position immediately after treatment and at most recent follow-up compared to pre-treatment. RESULTS: Among 234 eyes of 118 patients, average margin reflex distance-1 (MRD1) pre-treatment was 5.25 mm (range 0-10.0, SD 1.75), 4.66 mm (1.0-9.0, SD 1.32) immediately post-treatment (p < 0.001), and 4.50 mm (0-10.0, SD 1.52) at most recent follow-up (mean follow-up duration 10.60 months). In total, 136 (58.12%) eyes of 88 patients had MRD1 reduction immediately post-treatment, averaging 1.49 mm (0.5-5.0 mm, SD 0.97). Every 1-mm increase in pre-treatment MRD1 increased the odds of MRD1 reduction by 15.03% (CI 10.52-19.72, p < 0.001) and increased the reduction amount by 0.48 mm (CI 0.39-0.57, p < 0.001). Of 154 eyes of 78 patients with most recent follow-up, 107 (69.48%) eyes had stable or further improved retraction at most recent follow-up compared to immediately post-treatment. CONCLUSIONS: This study found a modest but significant reduction in MRD1 in approximately 60% of eyes, independent of proptosis change, which was sustained by most patients over longer-term follow-up. Higher pre-treatment MRD1 corresponded with greater improvement. These results suggest an overall mild benefit of teprotumumab for upper eyelid retraction.

Epidemiology of Orbital Inflammatory Disease: An AAO IRIS Registry Study.

PURPOSE: The current study queries the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) Intelligent Research in Sight (IRIS) registry for data on the epidemiology, work-up, and management patterns of autoimmune orbital inflammation. METHODS: Analysis and description of patient data from the IRIS registry between 2013 and 2019 reviewing patients with autoimmune or idiopathic orbital inflammation with filters based on International Classification of Disease (ICD) and Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes. Patients with thyroid eye disease, orbital cellulitis, and orbital abscess were excluded. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Demographic descriptions included gender, age, geographic region, and treatment. Sub-analysis was performed by assessing rates of imaging, biopsy, lab work-up, and diagnostic categories. RESULTS: In a final cohort of 20,584 patients, the mean age of onset of orbital inflammation was 51.7 years; 67% female; and 63% Caucasian, 21% unknown, 12% Black, 2.6% Asian, and 1.5% other. Only 49 had imaging, 78 had laboratory work-up, and 1,411 had biopsy codes. Treatment results showed 166 patients receiving antibiotics, 224 patients receiving steroids, and 35 patients receiving both. CONCLUSIONS: This study assessed the epidemiology, diagnostic patterns, and treatment patterns for orbital inflammation through the AAO IRIS registry. Practise patterns suggest a relatively low overall rate of imaging and laboratory studies compared to biopsies, although this certainly under-represents the actual number of imaging and laboratory studies and exemplifies the inherent imprecision of using a large database. However, the methodology of this study provides a framework of approaching the IRIS registry for oculoplastic research.

Periorbital necrotizing sweet syndrome: A report of two cases mimicking necrotizing soft tissue infections.

Purpose: Two cases are described of necrotizing Sweet syndrome (nSS), a rare variant of acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis that mimics necrotizing soft tissue infections. Observation: A 74-year-old female with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) presented with isolated periorbital nSS that closely mimicked necrotizing fasciitis (NF); she displayed pathergy to debridement, was exquisitely responsive to corticosteroids, and underwent successful first-stage reconstruction of the eyelid with full-thickness skin grafting. A second 40-year-old female patient with relapsed acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) presented with multifocal nSS most prominently involving the eyelid. Positive herpes zoster virus (HSV) PCR and bacterial superinfection complicated the diagnosis. She improved with chemotherapy for AML and corticosteroid therapy. Conclusion: nSS is rare and a high level of clinical suspicion as well as an understanding of its distinguishing features is necessary to avoid undue morbidity. Identification of pathergy, histopathology, microbiology, and clinical context are critical to avoid misdiagnosis of infection.

Orthogonal Deprotection Strategy of Fmoc Provides Improved Synthesis of Sensitive Peptides: Application to Z-Arg-Lys-AOMK.

Protecting groups (PGs) in peptide synthesis have inspired advanced design principles that incorporate "orthogonality" for selective C- and N-terminus and side-chain deprotections. The conventionally acid-stable 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) group is one of the most widely used N-protection groups in solid- and solution-phase synthesis. Despite the versatility of Fmoc, deprotection by the removal of the Fmoc group to unmask primary amines requires the use of a basic secondary amine nucleophile, but this stratagem poses challenges in sensitive molecules that bear reactive electrophilic groups. An expansion of PG versatility, a tunable orthogonality, in the late-stage synthesis of peptides would add flexibility to the synthetic design and implementation. Here, we report a novel Fmoc deprotection method using hydrogenolysis under mildly acidic conditions for the synthesis of Z-Arg-Lys-acyloxymethyl ketone (Z-R-K-AOMK). This new method is not only valuable for Fmoc deprotection in the synthesis of complex peptides that contain highly reactive electrophiles, or other similar sensitive functional groups, that are incompatible with traditional Fmoc deprotection conditions but also tolerant of N-Boc groups present in the substrate.

Perceived change in age after functional upper blepharoplasty.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the perceived age of patients before and after functional upper blepharoplasty. METHODS: Retrospective chart review of patients who underwent upper blepharoplasty by a single surgeon at an academic center. The inclusion criterion was having external photographs before and after blepharoplasty. Exclusion criteria included any other concurrent eyelid or facial surgery. Primary endpoint: perceived change in age after surgery as judged by the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery (ASOPRS) surgeons. RESULTS: Sixty-seven patients (14 men, 53 women) were included. Mean pre-operative age was 66.9 years (range 37.8-89.4) and mean post-operative age was 67.4 years (range 38.6-89). The mean perceived age pre-operatively was 68.9 years, and the mean perceived age post-operatively was 67.1 years, a change of 1.8 years (p = 0.0001 by two-tailed paired T-test). Inter-rater reliability of the observers was measured by intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.77 for pre-operative and 0.75 for post-operative photos. The decreased perceived age was 1.9 years for women, 1.4 years for men, 0.3 years for Asians, 1.2 years for Hispanics, and 2.1 years for whites. DISCUSSION: Functional upper blepharoplasty by an experienced ASOPRS surgeon was shown to reduce the perceived age of a patient by an average of 1.8 years.

Proptosis Regression After Teprotumumab Treatment for Thyroid Eye Disease.

PURPOSE: This study analyzed the degree and timing of proptosis regression after teprotumumab therapy. METHODS: A retrospective study of all patients who completed 8 teprotumumab infusions at 1 institution from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022. Change in proptosis was assessed in millimeters and percentages compared with immediate post-treatment and pretreatment proptosis. RESULTS: Of 119 patients with post-treatment data (mean follow-up 10.56 months, range: 3.05-25.08), 208 (87.39%) eyes of 110 patients had initial proptosis improvement. Of the 78 patients with multiple follow-up visits, 102 (65.38%) eyes of 59 patients had proptosis regression averaging 12.78% (range: 1.85-58.82%) compared with immediately post-treatment or 2.43 mm (0.5-10.0 mm). Eight (7.84%) eyes had initial documentation of regression more than 1 year after treatment, 40 (39.22%) between 6 months and 1 year, and 54 (52.94%) eyes within 6 months with 25 (46.30%) of these continuing to worsen at subsequent follow-up. Forty (25.64%) eyes of 24 patients had more proptosis at most recent follow-up than before teprotumumab, with an average regression of 1.53 mm (0.5-4.0 mm) or 7.74% (1.85-20.69%) of pretreatment proptosis. In comparison, 99 (63.46%) eyes of 54 patients maintained improvement, with reduction averaging 3.13 mm (0.5-11.0 mm) or 13.19% (1.92-41.67%) of pretreatment proptosis ( p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Two-thirds of eyes had regression despite initial teprotumumab response, typically within 1 year of treatment, with ongoing worsening over time. Most patients maintained some proptosis reduction compared with before treatment despite regression, although 25% were worse than pretreatment. The occurrence of regression was independent of the pretreatment duration of clinical thyroid eye disease. Overall, compared with preteprotumumab, there was a greater amount of improvement than regression at most recent follow-up.

Isolated lacrimal gland enlargement as a presenting sign of relapse of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia in an adult.

A 25-year-old woman with a history of acute lymphoblastic leukemia with Philadelphia chromosome (BCR 22q11.2-ABL1 (9q34)) presented with progressively worsening swelling and pain in her left upper eyelid of 3 months' duration. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a heterogeneously enhancing mass lesion in the left lacrimal gland. An incisional biopsy was performed; histopathology showed atypical lymphocytic cells, and flow cytometry revealed a similar immunophenotype to her previously diagnosed cancer. Her presentation was consistent with recurrence of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in the lacrimal gland, which can rarely be involved in relapse of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Traumatic rupture of the inferior rectus muscle: case report and review of the literature.

Traumatic inferior rectus muscle rupture secondary to blunt injury in the absence of associated orbital or ocular fractures or injury is rarely encountered, and there are limited published reports on subsequent surgical repair. We present the case of a 74-year-old man with complete inferior rectus transection following a fall with facial strike. A computed tomography scan of the face was unremarkable. Surgical exploration and repair of the muscle was performed by hooking the inferior oblique muscle to identify the inferior rectus muscle. Subsequent strabismus surgery was performed for residual binocular diplopia, resulting in excellent anatomic and visual outcomes and postoperative ocular alignment.

Distinct Cleavage Properties of Cathepsin B Compared to Cysteine Cathepsins Enable the Design and Validation of a Specific Substrate for Cathepsin B over a Broad pH Range.

The biological and pathological functions of cathepsin B occur in acidic lysosomes and at the neutral pH of cytosol, nuclei, and extracellular locations. Importantly, cathepsin B displays different substrate cleavage properties at acidic pH compared to neutral pH conditions. It is, therefore, desirable to develop specific substrates for cathepsin B that measure its activity over broad pH ranges. Current substrates used to monitor cathepsin B activity consist of Z-Phe-Arg-AMC and Z-Arg-Arg-AMC, but they lack specificity since they are cleaved by other cysteine cathepsins. Furthermore, Z-Arg-Arg-AMC monitors cathepsin B activity at neutral pH and displays minimal activity at acidic pH. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to design and validate specific fluorogenic peptide substrates that can monitor cathepsin B activity over a broad pH range from acidic to neutral pH conditions. In-depth cleavage properties of cathepsin B were compared to those of the cysteine cathepsins K, L, S, V, and X via multiplex substrate profiling by mass spectrometry at pH 4.6 and pH 7.2. Analysis of the cleavage preferences predicted the tripeptide Z-Nle-Lys-Arg-AMC as a preferred substrate for cathepsin B. Significantly, Z-Nle-Lys-Arg-AMC displayed the advantageous properties of measuring high cathepsin B specific activity over acidic to neutral pHs and was specifically cleaved by cathepsin B over the other cysteine cathepsins. Z-Nle-Lys-Arg-AMC specifically monitored cathepsin B activity in neuronal and glial cells which were consistent with relative abundances of cathepsin B protein. These findings validate Z-Nle-Lys-Arg-AMC as a novel substrate that specifically monitors cathepsin B activity over a broad pH range.

The Role of Steroids for Pediatric Orbital Cellulitis - Review of the Controversy.

Orbital cellulitis in the pediatric population is treated primarily with antibiotic therapy. This leaves the inflammatory component unchecked. Corticosteroid therapy has been used to accelerate recovery and decrease the long-term morbidity in other infectious conditions. Its use has also been proposed for pediatric orbital cellulitis. The aim of this manuscript is to conduct a literature review to summarize existing evidence and understand ongoing controversies. Overall, prior investigations on corticosteroid therapy for pediatric orbital cellulitis are limited by their study design and sample sizes. One of the most discussed potential benefits is that adjuvant steroid therapy for pediatric orbital cellulitis is associated with shorter hospitalization without major infectious complications. However, decreased hospitalization length is an imperfect metric, especially without standardized criteria for hospital discharge. Future studies are warranted to better guide the use of adjuvant steroid therapy and to optimize its potential in the management of pediatric orbital cellulitis.

Safety of Botulinum Toxin A Injections for Facial Rejuvenation: A Meta-Analysis of 9,669 Patients.

PURPOSE: To quantitatively evaluate safety profile for botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) injections among patients undergoing treatment for cosmetic indications is produced, with special attention to clinically relevant covariates and their relative impact on safety. METHODS: A systematic literature search was performed using PubMed (1996-January 2020) and Embase (1947-January 2020) to identify all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that reported safety data for patients receiving BTX-A for cosmetic indications compared to placebo. A meta-analysis was performed to determine pooled risk ratios (RR) for treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) and for specific adverse events. Meta-regression and additional analyses were performed for significant and/or clinically relevant covariates. RESULTS: Following the review of 8,690 studies, 32 RCTs involving 9,669 patients were included. The pooled RR of any TRAE occurring after BTX-A injection compared to placebo injection was 1.53 (95% CI, 1.33-1.77; p < 0.001). Statistically significant covariates included individual injection volume and total injection volume. The type of BTX-A formulation, treatment site, total BTX-A units, and BTX-A units per injection were not significant. Specific adverse events more likely to occur following BTX-A injection rather than placebo injection included eyelid/eyebrow malposition (RR 3.55; p < 0.001), facial paresis (RR 2.42; p = 0.316), and headache (RR 1.45; p = 0.003). Injection site reactions and injection site bruising occurred at similar rates in both groups. CONCLUSIONS: The overall safety profile of BTX-A is acceptable and consistent with previous publications. The authors' additional analyses provide a relative comparison of the impact of various treatment parameters on safety.

Clear Cell Syringoma of the Eyelids, a Distinctive Histopathologic Variant Associated with Diabetes Mellitus.

The authors describe the clinical and histologic findings of the clear cell variant of syringoma. Three adult female patients (age range 39-76 years old) were found to have multiple, flesh-colored lower eyelid papules, clinically consistent with syringomas, but histologically displaying abundant clear cell change. Two patients had known diagnoses of uncontrolled diabetes.
