Diplopia After Migraine Surgery
A 46-year-old man with refractory migraine headache was treated with decompressive migraine surgery of the supraorbital and supratrochlear nerves. Postoperatively, he reported diplopia that got better on left head tilt. After ophthalmological examination, a diagnosis of right superior oblique palsy was made. The aim is to report the first case of superior oblique muscle or trochlea damage that may have occurred because of inadvertent entry through the orbital septum into the right superior orbit.

Osseous Metaplasia of the Eyelid in a Child
Osteoma cutis is a term applied to bone formation in the dermis or subcutaneous tissue. It is deemed primary when occurring de novo without prior disease or secondary when associated with pre-existing inflammation, neoplasia or trauma. The authors describe a longstanding focal calcified and ossified lesion of the upper eyelid in a healthy 10-year-old girl along with a sterile corneal ulcer. The lesion most likely represented an ossified tarsal cyst or chalazion. (Source: Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery)

Large Hemorrhagic Extrascleral Ciliary Body Melanoma Recurrence Treated With Transarterial Embolization and Coiling Followed by Exenteration
A 59-year-old male patient who suffered from a systemically metastasized, large extrascleral uveal melanoma recurrence of the left eye presented with active hemorrhage from the tumor. He had undergone proton beam irradiation for an epithelioid ciliary body melanoma 4 years before presentation and was lost to follow-up. Magnetic resonance angiography showed vascularization of the lesion via the ophthalmic and maxillary artery. Selective transarterial embolization of the tumor was conducted with polyvinyl alcohol microparticles followed by coiling of the supplying arteries. The bleeding stopped after 2 days and the tumor sta...

Eyelid–Cheek Junction Soft-Tissue Perineurioma: Case Report and Controversies
Perineurioma is a rare soft-tissue tumor with characteristic histologic and immunohistochemical features. The diagnosis; however, can be met with certain challenges. A 71-year-old woman presented with an enlarging painless mass in the right lower eyelid–cheek junction. The lesion presented as a raised overhanging trunk-shaped mass. An excisional biopsy and local reconstruction were performed. The overall morphology and immunohistochemical findings were most supportive of a cellular soft-tissue perineurioma, with differential diagnoses including dermatofibroma. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first histopathologi...

Conjunctival Exophytic Schneiderian-type Papillomas: A Rare Occurrence
Conjunctival papillomas are common tumors that exhibit an exophytic growth pattern, comprised of multiple filiform fronds of squamous epithelium that contain fibrovascular cores. The inverted (endophytic) variety of papilloma, often termed “Schneiderian,” rarely occurs on the conjunctiva, with only 15 cases reported to date. Endophytic and exophytic papillomas are well described arising in the sinonasal Schneiderian epithelium where a low rate of malignant transformation may occur in the endophytic type; malignant transformation in exophytic sinonasal papillomas is exceedingly rare. The authors describe 2 cases of exop...

Extraocular Muscle Enlargement and Proptosis Associated with Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is an inflammatory neuropathy, which commonly causes peripheral neuropathy. It has rarely been associated with cranial nerve hypertrophy and neuro-ophthalmic manifestations. Proptosis secondary to cranial nerve hypertrophy has been reported in association with CIDP. The authors present a case of a 67-year-old man with CIDP who presented with bilateral proptosis, strabismus, and episodes of globe subluxation. The proptosis was mainly attributed to significant enlargement of the extraocular muscles, in addition to bilateral enlargement of the trigeminal nerves....

Disseminated Coccidioidomycosis With Orbital Osteomyelitis and Periorbital Abscess
Coccidioidomycosis osteomyelitis involving the orbital bones is exceedingly rare and is often misdiagnosed initially as other inflammatory or infectious conditions. No clear guidelines currently exist regarding appropriate management. The authors present an atypical presentation of disseminated coccidioidomycosis in an immunocompetent child with frontal bone superotemporal orbital rim osteomyelitis and associated periorbital abscess, successfully managed with surgical debridement through an upper eyelid crease incision.

Aspiration as a Novel Technique to Address Facial and Periocular Myiasis
Suction aspiration, which has not yet been described in the treatment for myiasis in the periorbital and facial regions, was used to achieve rapid resolution of maggot burden in a 78-year-old patient who presented with a large ulcerated squamous cell carcinoma of the face. This technique also facilitates submission of parasite samples for further analysis. Suction aspiration had no complications, such as significant residual ruptured maggots in the wound or eye injury. Suction aspiration is a safe and efficient technique to reduce maggot burden that has advantages over classic myiasis treatments, especially near the eyes a...

Development of Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus in an Immunocompetent Pediatric Patient Following Facial Trauma
Herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO) is a neuro-oculo-dermic infection caused by reactivation of latent varicella zoster virus in the dorsal root ganglia of the ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve. Although a rare diagnosis in an otherwise healthy, vaccinated pediatric patient, this entity may occur with increasing frequency among those with preceding trauma, particularly in the month prior to presentation. Herein, we highlight a case of HZO in a vaccinated, immunocompetent adolescent in the setting of recent facial trauma. (Source: Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery)

Adult-Onset Xanthogranuloma With Frontal Nerve and Intracranial Involvement
Adult-onset xanthogranuloma (AOX) typically affects the preseptal and anterior orbital regions. The authors report a 49-year-old man with a 6-month history of unilateral AOX, demonstrating diffuse extraconal and intraconal orbital involvement, including the lacrimal gland and extraocular muscles. There was frontal nerve enlargement, intracranial and pterygopalatine fossa involvement. Investigations excluded IgG4 disease and Erdheim–Chester disease. This case illustrates that AOX may be added to the causes of orbital nerve enlargement and may demonstrate intracranial extension. (Source: Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery)

Atypical, Extremely Rapid Growth of Pediatric Orbital Neurilemmoma
We describe the clinical presentation, imaging, pathology, and management of this tumor in a 12 years old—the tumor growing extremely rapidly over 5 months and without any evidence of cystic degeneration, hemorrhage, or sarcomatous features. The possibility of tumor growth having been accelerated by prior biopsy is discussed. (Source: Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery)

New-Onset of Inflammatory Bowel Disease in a Patient Treated With Teprotumumab for Thyroid Associated Ophthalmopathy
A patient with thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy was treated with teprotumumab and developed symptoms concerning for inflammatory bowel disease after her sixth infusion. Colonoscopy was performed, and mucosal biopsies identified evidence of active colitis consistent with a diagnosis of ulcerative colitis. Despite treatment with budesonide and mesalamine, the patient continued to be symptomatic one and a half months after cessation of teprotumumab and required infliximab to achieve good control of her inflammatory bowel disease. This case represents the first report of new-onset inflammatory bowel disease arising during tre...
