RESUMO

PURPOSE: Scar contracture of the eyelid following facial burns often has adverse consequences. Total cicatricial contracture often makes adjustment flap translation challenging to implement. Previously used upper and lower eyelid adhesion methods are ineffective for patients with severe cicatricial contracture, and ectropion can easily recur. This study aimed to retrospectively examine upper and lower eyelid adhesions using an orbicularis oculi muscle flap and verify its stability. METHODS: In patients with ectropion caused by severe scar contracture following head and face burns, we employed a tunnel orbicularis oculi muscle flap technique, which involved creating a tunnel between the skin and the tarsal plate of the eyelid, mobilizing the orbicularis oculi muscle, and rotating it into this tunnel to provide stable adhesion of the upper and lower eyelids. Full-thickness skin grafting was then performed. The eyelids were examined postoperatively to determine whether reoperation was necessary and to monitor for any potential complications. RESULTS: This study included 26 patients and 46 eyes. No accidental disconnection occurred after eyelid adhesion, which lasted for an average of 21.87 ± 10.08 months before the eyelid adhesion was cut open. No complications or adverse reactions occurred, and the adhesions did not break unexpectedly. CONCLUSIONS: Repairing eyelid ectropion with the tunnel orbicularis oculi muscle flap is a simple procedure that immediately creates tension against upper and lower eyelid contractures, providing long-term stable adhesion. This method avoids structural disorders, such as eyelid margin scarring, minimally influences surrounding tissues, and has few postoperative complications. It holds great value for repairing eyelid tissue defects and warrants further study.

RESUMO

Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of glaucoma secondary to congenital ectropion uveae (CEU) using penetrating Schlemm's canaloplasty. Methods: This was a retrospective case series study. Medical records of patients diagnosed with glaucoma secondary to CEU and undergoing penetrating Schlemm's canaloplasty at the Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University between August 2020 and December 2021 were collected. Clinical characteristics including the extent and location of iris ectropion, type of glaucoma, were analyzed. Follow-up visits were conducted at 1, 3, 6 months, and 1 year postoperatively. Visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP), anterior segment and fundus condition, filtering bleb morphology, use of IOP-lowering medications, ultrasound biomicroscopy results, and other indicators were analyzed to summarize surgical outcomes. Results: Six cases (6 eyes) of glaucoma secondary to CEU were included, all unilateral, with 3 left eyes and 3 right eyes; median age was 10.0 (5.3, 28.8) years; including 3 males and 3 females. Preoperative IOP was (31.7±10.0) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), and the preoperative number of IOP-lowering medications used was 2.0 (2.0, 3.2). The extent of iris ectropion in the 6 cases ranged from 270 ° to 360 °, with peripheral anterior synechiae corresponding to the location of iris ectropion, and angle closure with the degree of synechiae extending beyond Schwalbe's line. No surgical complications occurred in any of the 6 cases postoperatively. At 1 month postoperatively, the IOP was (16.4±3.2) mmHg, with a median of 0.0 (0.0, 1.5) medications used. At 3 months postoperatively, the IOP was (14.8±6.0) mmHg, with a median of 0.0 (0.0, 2.2) medications used. At 6 months postoperatively, the IOP was (18.1±6.1) mmHg, with a median of 0.0 (0.0, 0.5) medications used. Among them, 5 patients had a follow-up period of 1 year postoperatively, all achieving controlled IOP without the use of IOP-lowering medications, with an average IOP of (15.5±3.1) mmHg. No obvious filtering bleb formation was observed at the surgical site in all patients. Conclusions: Glaucoma secondary to CEU manifests primarily as closed-angle glaucoma, with a correspondence between the closure range of anterior iris adhesions in the angle and the extent of iris ectropion. Penetrating Schlemm's canaloplasty demonstrates favorable and stable efficacy for its treatment.

RESUMO

Pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP) is a rare dermatological condition which may present with ocular manifestations. We report a case of recurrent cicatricial ectropion (CE) with topical beta-blocker use in the rare dermatological condition PRP. The patient underwent release of scar tissue, lateral tarsal strip and full-thickness supraclavicular skin graft for CE following immunosuppression with methotrexate for 3 months. Postoperatively, CE recurred, with skin graft shrinkage and resumption of periocular disease activity, 8 weeks following the introduction of topical timolol. The patient was referred for further immunosuppression and substitution of timolol before consideration for further surgery. PRP has a variety of potential ocular complications. Surgery has a high risk of recurrence and should be performed when the overall disease is quiescent and drugs, which could trigger reactivation, have been discontinued and/or substituted. Skin grafts should be oversized to off-set shrinkage.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Loss of vision and other ocular defects are a concern with eyelid burn sequelae. This most commonly progresses from eyelid contracture to cicatricial ectropion and lagophthalmos. When left untreated, these may lead to exposure keratitis, ulceration, infection, perforation, and loss of vision. In the case of full-thickness eyelid burns, release and grafting are required. However, there is a paucity of studies on outcomes in eyelid burn surgery treatment, despite concern for permanent ocular damage or loss of vision. The aim of the study is to describe the complication rates in burn eyelid reconstruction at a single center for 14 years. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was performed of all patients who had sustained eyelid burns and required reconstruction between April 2009 and February 2023. Medical records were obtained from patients' charts. Collected data include demographics, medical history, type of injury, indication for surgery, procedure performed, and complications. RESULTS: A total of 14 patients and 25 eyelids underwent eyelid reconstruction of the 901 total patients with burn-related injuries requiring plastic surgery reconstruction. These patients underwent 54 eyelid surgeries with a mean follow-up time of 13.1 ± 17.1 months. Patients were 71% men and 29% women, with a mean age of 45.1 ± 15.6 years. In 53.7% (n = 29) of the cases, the simultaneous reconstruction of both the upper and lower eyelids was necessary. The reconstruction of the upper and lower eyelid alone represented a smaller percentage (25.9% and 20.4%, respectively). On average, the patients received 3.9 ± 3.5 eyelid surgeries. The overall complication rate was 53.7% (n = 29). The most common complication was ectropion (42.6%, n = 23). Other complications included eye injury (25.9%, n = 14), lagophthalmos (24.1%, n = 13), local infection (7.4%, n = 4), and graft loss (5.6%, n = 3). CONCLUSION: Periorbital burns represent a major challenge that may require complex surgical intervention. Full-thickness skin graft remains the standard of care for patients with eyelid burns. However, there is a high incidence of ectropion that may require reoperation. Further studies examining the conditions of successful eyelid burn procedures may provide guidance on when patients may benefit from eyelid reconstruction during their burn treatment.

RESUMO

Ten-year-old female patient, with facial dysmorphia, scoliosis, short stature, muscular hypotonia, patent foramen ovale and maturational delay, presented for correction of bilateral congenital ectropion. Ophthalmological examination revealed bilateral lower eyelid ectropion, euryblepharon and lagophthalmos, with a positive Bell's phenomenon. She was treated with full-thickness autologous skin grafts on the lower eyelids with bilateral lateral canthoplasty, resolving the ectropion and improving eyelid occlusion. Subsequently, a genetic study was performed that revealed a mutation in the PTPN11 gene and allowed, together with the clinical picture, to make the diagnosis of Noonan syndrome. Noonan syndrome is a multisystem genetic disorder with a wide variety of phenotypes, which usually presents with ocular and periocular disorders. Eyelid ectropion, a distinctive feature of this patient, is a rare ophthalmological manifestation of this syndrome that can be corrected with full-thickness skin graft and lateral canthoplasty.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Lower eyelid malposition can result from age-related changes, such as ectropion, or postsurgical changes, such as retraction after lower lid blepharoplasty. The current accepted treatment is surgical, but soft-tissue fillers have been used as well, with good outcome. The underlying anatomy, which is incompletely described, would be useful information for practitioners desiring to provide minimally invasive injections of the lower eyelid. The authors describe a minimally invasive injection technique adjusted to the complex anatomy of the lower eyelid for the treatment of ectropion and retraction of the lower eyelid. METHODS: A total of 39 periorbital regions of 31 study participants were retrospectively analyzed using photographs before and after reconstruction of the lower eyelid with soft-tissue fillers. Two independent raters assessed the degree of ectropion and lower eyelid retraction (0 to 4, best to worst) before and after the reconstruction and the overall aesthetic improvement using the Periorbital Aesthetic Improvement Scale. RESULTS: The median degree of ectropion and lower eyelid retraction score improved statistically significantly from 3.00 (SD, 1.5) to 1.00 (SD, 1.0) ( P < 0.001). The mean volume of soft-tissue filler material applied per eyelid was 0.73 cc (SD, 0.5). The median Periorbital Aesthetic Improvement Scale score after the treatment was rated as 4.00 (SD, 0.5), indicating improvement of the periorbital functional and appearance. CONCLUSIONS: Anatomic knowledge of the lower eyelid and of the preseptal space is of clinical relevance when reconstructing the lower eyelid with soft-tissue fillers. The targeted space provides optimal lifting capacities for improved aesthetic and functional outcome. CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, IV.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Paralytic ectropion increases risk for corneal injury in facial palsy patients. Although a lateral tarsal strip (LTS) provides corneal coverage through superolateral lower eyelid pull, the unopposed lateral force may result in lateral displacement of the lower eyelid punctum and overall worsening asymmetry. A tensor fascia lata (TFL) lower eyelid sling may overcome some of these limitations. This study quantitatively compares scleral show, punctum deviation, lower marginal reflex distance, and periorbital symmetry between the two techniques. METHODS: Retrospective review was performed on facial paralysis patients who underwent LTS or TFL sling surgery with no prior lower lid suspension procedures. Standardized preoperative and postoperative images in primary gaze position were used to measure scleral show and lower punctum deviation using ImageJ, and lower marginal reflex distance using Emotrics. RESULTS: Of 449 facial paralysis patients, 79 met inclusion criteria. Fifty-seven underwent LTS surgery and 22 underwent TFL sling surgery. Compared with preoperatively, lower medial scleral show improved significantly with both LTS (10.9 mm 2 ; P < 0.01) and TFL (14.7 mm 2 ; P < 0.01). The LTS group showed significant worsening of horizontal and vertical lower punctum deviation when compared with the TFL group (both P < 0.01). The LTS group was unable to achieve periorbital symmetry between the healthy and paralytic eye across all parameters measured postoperatively ( P < 0.01); and the TFL group achieved symmetry in medial scleral show, lateral scleral show, and lower punctum deviation. CONCLUSION: In patients with paralytic ectropion, TFL sling provides similar outcomes to LTS, with the added advantages of symmetry without lateralization or caudalization of the lower medial punctum. CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, III.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Lower eyelid malposition can be a complication following orbital floor fracture surgeries. We present our incidence of lower eyelid malposition from a large case series of orbital floor fracture repairs using the 'swinging eyelid' approach and 'hang back' technique. METHODS: A retrospective review of all orbital fracture surgeries at our institution from November 2011 to March 2021 was performed. Primary outcomes included the incidence of lower eyelid malposition by category, the average time to presentation after primary surgery, and reoperation rates among cases with lower eyelid complications. RESULTS: A total of 438 cases that involved repair of the fractured orbital floor were identified. Six patients (1.37 %) developed lower eyelid malposition following primary orbital floor repair. Two patients (0.46 %) developed reverse ptosis of the lower eyelid. Two patients (0.46 %) returned with lower lid cicatricial ectropion. One patient (0.23 %) had postoperative lower eyelid retraction. One patient (0.23 %) had postoperative lower eyelid cicatricial entropion. No cases of lower lid flattening, lower eyelid fat flattening, or eyelid notch was noted. All patients with lower eyelid malposition underwent additional surgeries except one patient with reverse ptosis (83.3 %). The average time to the presentation of postoperative complications from the surgery date was 292.8 days (range = 49 days to 3.5 years). CONCLUSION: Lower eyelid malposition after orbital floor repair is a known complication that can be decreased by employing the 'swinging eyelid' with a preseptal approach and closure by the 'hang back' technique.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Malignant cutaneous eyelid tumors account for approximately 10% of all cutaneous cancers. Like other cancerous skin lesions, treatment commonly involves excision with wide margins, requiring tissue reconstruction. The use of the paramedian forehead flap (PMFF) has been described for reconstruction of the medial and upper eyelid, but literature is lacking for its use in lower eyelid anterior lamella reconstruction. We present a case series of patients who underwent reconstruction of lower eyelid defects using the PMFF. CASE PRESENTATIONS: We present 2 patients who underwent reconstruction of lower eyelid defects using the PMFF surgical technique. The patients had previous history of lower lid repair with other reconstructive methods because of cancerous eyelid lesions. In addition, both received adjuvant radiation therapy, which led to development of ectropion. Postoperative signs, symptoms, and photographs were collected to monitor outcomes. MANAGEMENT AND OUTCOMES: Reconstructions were performed by the collaborative efforts of a facial plastic reconstructive surgeon and oculoplastic surgeon using a staged PMFF approach. Postoperatively, both patients had significant improvement in ophthalmologic symptoms, particularly ectropion and lagophthalmos. At their most recent follow-up visit, they were satisfied with their functional and aesthetic outcomes. CONCLUSION: The PMFF may be safely used to reconstruct defects of the lower eyelid anterior lamella. In this study, the PMFF has proven to be an excellent option for patients with complications after previous lower eyelid reconstructions or history of radiation therapy. Overall, the PMFF should be considered as part of the surgeon's reconstructive ladder when addressing lower eyelid defects.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To describe a buried variation of the temporary suture tarsorrhaphy and determine its efficacy period. METHODS: This retrospective case review includes 11 patients needing corneal protection. Six patients had lagophthalmos from facial nerve palsy, 4 had cicatricial ectropion, and 1 had neurotrophic keratopathy. A total of 14 buried temporary suture tarsorrhaphies (BTSTs) were placed. The duration of the BTST was the main outcome. The corneal status before and throughout the BTST was monitored. The eyelids were examined for any undesired changes from the BTST. RESULTS: The mean duration of the BTST was 97.5 days, with a maximum of 273 days. Aside from one spontaneous dehiscence 5 days after placement, all BTSTs held until intentional removal. Five BTSTs were removed for a more definitive surgical procedure, 6 were removed after resolution of the initial indication, and 2 are still in place as the patient awaits surgery. All cases of keratopathy improved after BTST placement. There were no complications and no undesired eyelid changes. CONCLUSIONS: The BTST is a simple, fast, safe, and effective procedure that can be performed in the clinic or inpatient to immediately improve ocular surface coverage. As a minimally invasive procedure that can easily last several months, the BTST is an excellent option for patients who require more intense intervention than medical management alone. It can also securely bridge patients to a permanent solution such as lateral canthal resuspension.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To describe the clinical characteristics, surgical technique, and outcomes in patients with kissing nevi who underwent surgical management in two tertiary referral centers. METHODS: Medical chart review was conducted for all patients who underwent surgical repair in Moorfields Eye Hospital and The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Demographics, medical history, lesion characteristics, surgical intervention, and outcomes were collected. Main outcome measures were surgical interventions as well as functional and cosmetic outcomes. RESULTS: Thirteen patients were included. Mean age at presentation was 23.46 years (±19.35,4-61), and the mean number of surgeries per patients was 1.9 (±1.3,1-5). Initial procedure included incisional biopsy in three cases (23%) and complete excision and reconstruction in 10 cases (77%). Surgery involved the upper and lower anterior lamella in all cases, the upper posterior lamella in 4 patients (31%), and the lower posterior lamella in 2 patients (15%). Local flaps were utilized in 3 cases and grafts in 5 cases. Complications included: trichiasis (n = 2, 15%), lower eyelid ectropion (n = 2, 15%), mild ptosis (n = 1, 8%), and upper/lower punctal ectropion (n = 1, 8%). Twelve patients (92%) were satisfied with the final functional and cosmetic outcome. No recurrence or malignant transformation were observed in any patient. CONCLUSION: The surgical management of kissing nevi can be challenging, and commonly includes the use of local flaps or grafts, often requiring multiple interventions. The approach should be based on lesion size and location, proximity and involvement of key anatomical landmarks, as well as individual facial characteristics. Surgical management has a favorable functional and cosmetic outcome in the majority of patients.

RESUMO

This systematic review aimed to evaluate the surgical techniques used for orbital floor reconstruction after Brown class III maxillectomy for cancer. Three databases were searched from January 1990 to January 2022. Of the 614 studies identified, 20 were retained after eligibility assessment. The surgical techniques were classified into four groups: free bone flaps (A), alloplastic implants (B), bone grafts (C), and soft-tissue reconstructions (D). Ectropion and diplopia concerned 42.6% and 6.6% of the patients, respectively. Soft tissue reconstruction was more likely to cause ectropion (17/27), followed by the reconstruction techniques of group B (34/79), group C (26/70), and group A (1/7). Postoperative enophthalmos was identified in 18 patients (9.6%), mostly in group D (5/35), followed by groups B (8/68), A (3/33), and C (2/52). Free bone flaps and alloplastic implants represent good reconstructive options in terms of postoperative ocular parameters.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Paralytic lagophthalmos can have devastating consequences for vision if left untreated. Several surgical techniques have been described, including the utilization of alloplastic and autologous materials. OBJECTIVES: The authors sought to evaluate the effectiveness of the surgical treatment of paralytic lagophthalmos with combined techniques employing autologous material and involving the upper and lower eyelids. METHODS: Patients with paralytic lagophthalmos underwent stretching of the levator aponeurosis with interposition of conchal cartilage in the upper eyelid associated with sectioning of the orbitomalar ligament and lateral canthoplasty in the lower eyelid. The effectiveness of the technique was evaluated employing subjective (symptomatology) and objective parameters (ophthalmologic evaluation and measurements of lagophthalmos and marginal reflex distances 1 and 2). RESULTS: Eight patients with paralytic lagophthalmos were subjected to the proposed technique. In the postoperative period, 85.7% reported complete improvement of symptoms and 62.5% presented a normal eye examination. The mean lagophthalmos measurement was reduced by 5.93 mm, the mean marginal reflex distance 2 was reduced by 2.61 mm, and the mean marginal reflex distance 1 was reduced by 0.69 mm. CONCLUSIONS: The technique presented herein, employing autologous material associated with sectioning of the orbitomalar ligament and lateral canthoplasty, was effective in the treatment of paralytic lagophthalmos and did not present significant complications, such as extrusion.

RESUMO

Background: Lateral tarsal techniques alone for lower eyelid correction in paralytic lagophthalmos may yield suboptimal outcomes. Objective: To describe a lower eyelid sling technique for primary and revision correction of lower eyelid ptosis and ectropion and evaluate outcomes as measured by margin reflex distance 2 (MRD2). Methods: A retrospective review of patients with long-standing unilateral paralytic lagophthalmos who underwent primary or revision lower eyelid ptosis correction by sling suspension between January 2016 and August 2020 at a tertiary medical center was performed. Surgical technique is illustrated with video and technical considerations are discussed. Pre- and postoperative MRD2 values were quantified from databased photographs. Results: Thirty-eight patients were included. Eighteen patients had undergone prior procedures for ptosis correction. Lower eyelid symmetry and paralyzed side MRD2 significantly improved after lower lid sling for primary and revision cases (p < 0.05), and improvement was sustained over the study period (mean follow-up duration 13.3 months, range 1-33 months). No postoperative complications occurred. Conclusion: Lower eyelid sling yielded safe, effective, and durable correction of lower eyelid position in a cohort of patients with paralytic lagophthalmos.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Adverse effects of topical glaucoma medications (TGMs) may include development of ocular adnexal disorders. We undertook a study to determine the effect of TGMs on the risk of developing lacrimal drainage obstruction (LDO) and eyelid malposition. SUBJECTS/METHODS: All patients 66 years of age and older in Ontario, Canada initiating TGM and all patients diagnosed with glaucoma/suspected glaucoma but not receiving TGM from 2002 to 2018 were eligible for inclusion in this retrospective cohort study. Using validated healthcare administrative databases, cohorts were identified with TGM and no TGM patients matched 1:2 on sex and birth year. The effect of TGM treatment on risk of surgery for LDO and lid malpositions was estimated using Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards models. RESULTS: Cohorts included 122,582 patients in the TGM cohort and 232,336 patients in the no TGM cohort. Among the TGM cohort there was decreased event-free survival for entropion (log-rank P < 0.001), trichiasis (P < 0.001), and LDO (P = 0.006), and increased ectropion-free survival (P = 0.007). No difference in ptosis-free survival was detected (P = 0.78). For the TGM cohort there were increased hazards for entropion (hazard ratio [HR] 1.24, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.12-1.37; P < 0.001), trichiasis (HR 1.74, 95% CI 1.57-1.94; P < 0.001), and LDO (at 15 years: HR 2.39, 95% CI 1.49-3.85; P = 0.004), and a decreased hazard for ectropion (HR 0.89, 95% CI 0.81-0.97; P = 0.008). No association between TGM treatment and ptosis hazard was detected (HR 0.99, 95% CI 0.89-1.09; P = 0.78). CONCLUSIONS: TGMs are associated with an increased risk of undergoing surgery for LDO, entropion, and trichiasis.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Periorbital fractures are a condition encountered after high-energy trauma in the face region. In the follow-ups after surgical repair, some changes may occur in the lower eyelid. Scleral show, ectropion, entropion, and canthal malposition are the most common complications. In this study, the effect of subciliary soft tissue approaches on lower eyelid position in patients with infraorbital rim fracture was investigated. METHODS: Patients admitted with orbital lower rim fracture between January 2017 and January 2021 were included in the study. A total of 90 patients, 15 patients in each group, were followed up for 6 months. Before the operation, the patients were randomly assigned to the groups by an impartial observer and the surgeons who would perform the operation were informed about the method. The patients were divided into six groups according to the type of soft tissue approach for fracture repair. RESULTS: There were 6 groups in total and each group included 15 patients. The mean age was 41.4 in group 1, 50.6 in group 2, 38.2 in group 3, 36.4 in group 4, 38 in group 5, and 39.9 in group 6. There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of age (p = 0.090), gender distribution (p = 0.835), and smoking (p = 0.685). Ectropion was observed in 14 of 73 male patients and 5 of 17 female patients. Ectropion was observed in 9 of 38 smokers and 10 of 52 nonsmokers. When all groups were evaluated together, the scleral show measurement was 0.072 on the operated side and 0.034 on the healthy side. This measurement was statistically significant (p = 0.000). CONCLUSION: Subciliary skin-only or step incision approaches can be used safely in the exposure of infraorbital rim fractures, but both approaches must be supported by canthopexy.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Involutional Ectropion is commonly prevalent disorder of eyelid malposition caused by age-related degeneration of the periocular tissues. This study conducted to provide a summary and review of surgical practice for the management of lower eyelid involutional ectropion and enlist various causative factors that explain the pathogenesis. METHODS: The review of literature on risk factors and surgical approaches for involutional lower eyelid ectropion, searched on PubMed from 1980 onwards. RESULT: Multiple factors contribute to horizontal and vertical lower eyelid involutional ectropion. Several surgical practices have been described over the last years to address these factors. Lateral tarsal strip is the most used and effective surgery to treat horizontal laxity. CONCLUSION: Knowledge of various contributing factors and surgical procedures will enable to design the most effective therapeutic management for lower eyelid involutional ectropion. surgical approaches are individualized depending on preoperative clinical evaluation of possible causative factors and concerning the predominant location of the ectropion will result in a high success rate.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Subperiosteal midface lift provides a comprehensive solution to the soft tissue component of midfacial aging. However, midfacial aging also has a skeletal component that is rarely addressed with conventional mid-facelift techniques. Moreover, many of the adverse outcomes after a mid-facelift are closely related to failures and limitations of mid-face fixation. The author's technique was designed to overcome these limitations. OBJECTIVES: The author aimed to describe the rationale, technical details, and outcomes of the author's mid-facelift technique with intraorbital fixation. METHODS: This study was a retrospective review of 82 nonconsecutive cases where the intraorbital fixation mid-facelift was performed by the author between September 2016 and December 2021. Patient data were obtained from patient records and standardized photography. Preoperative differences in mid-face volume were assessed utilizing the Allergan midface volume deficit scale on standardized photography. RESULTS: The average mid-face volume deficit score significantly improved after surgery. Failure of fixation, flat midface deformity, and relapse of mid-face ptosis were not seen in any of the primary patients. Infraorbital hollow did not recur in any of the patients operated on with this technique. None of the primary patients (0/58) in this series developed ectropion or permanent lower eyelid malposition. CONCLUSIONS: Intraorbital fixation mid-face lift is an effective and durable surgical option for the treatment of midfacial aging. The technique is applicable in problem cases such as negative vector patients, negative canthal tilt patients, male patients with large bags, and secondary lower blepharoplasties where conventional techniques tend to fail.

RESUMO

<b><br>Introduction:</b> The imbalance of external and internal forces acting on the lower eyelid can result in entropion and ectropion, both of which cause ocular irritation and loss of proper eye protection. Potential complications of untreated cases include recurrent inflammation of the conjunctiva and cornea, conjunctival neovascularization, corneal abrasion or perforation, and ultimately even loss of vision. Although various surgical techniques are used to address this problem, their long-term outcome and effectiveness are still under discussion. </br> <b><br>Aim:</b> To evaluate outcomes of surgery for entropion and ectropion, including a modified Wheeler's method for entropion correction.</br> <b><br>Methods:</b> A non-comparative study (prospective and retrospective groups) included 100 patients operated on in two university hospitals' plastic surgery departments for lower eyelid entropion or ectropion, following formal ethics approval. The prospective group included 50 patients assessed preoperatively and at 3 and 12 months postoperatively. The retrospective group was comprised of 50 patients (2012-2018), whose preoperative documentation and clinical examinations were analyzed. The main outcome measures were change between pre- and postoperative patient-reported symptoms (VAS scale), ectropion/entropion grading scale (EGS/EnGS), quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF), and occurrence of complications.</br> <b><br>Results:</b> The differences in the severity of all symptoms before and after surgery evaluated with the VAS scale were statistically significant in both groups (p <0.05). We observed 6 recurrences (12%) in the prospective group and 9 (18%) in the retrospective group, with minor complications. Very good functional and esthetic postoperative results were confirmed in 70% (79) of the whole group and in 13 patients (81.3%) treated with the modified Wheeler's method. In the prospective group, the Mann- Whitney U test for dependent variables revealed significant improvement in the somatic, psychological, and environmental domains, with no significant change in the social relationships domain.</br> <b><br>Conclusions:</b> The results following entropion/ectropion surgery prove the effectiveness of the methods used. Complementing them with the modified Wheeler's method brought an increase in the number of very good outcomes. Surgery of lower eyelid malposition contributed to reduced symptoms and improved quality of life. The rates of postoperative sequelae were low.</br>.
