Recurrence rate of pleomorphic adenoma of the lacrimal gland: systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: There was a statistically significant difference in the rates of recurrence between tumors that were either biopsied or had a ruptured pseudocapsule compared to those that did not. This evidence adds additional support for excisional biopsy being the procedure of choice for LGPA and reinforces the importance of keeping the pseudocapsule intact during surgical resection.PMID:37870812 | DOI:10.1080/01676830.2023.2269252 (Source: Orbit)

Cushing's syndrome of the orbit: congestive orbitopathy and optic neuropathy associated with steroids
Orbit. 2023 Oct 19:1-4. doi: 10.1080/01676830.2023.2268158. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 56-year-old female with a history of chronic systemic steroid use for asthma control displayed orbital congestion, exophthalmos, a mild abduction deficit, and optic neuropathy. Laboratory workup was unrevealing. Neuroimaging showed increased orbital fat compartments, though the orbital fat was unremarkable on biopsy. The patient was diagnosed with iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome of the orbit and underwent orbital decompression. Early published literature declared this orbitopathy benign. However, newer cases describe more pathologic c...

Paraneoplastic orbital myositis as a first manifestation of renal cell carcinoma
Orbit. 2023 Oct 14:1-5. doi: 10.1080/01676830.2023.2264916. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTParaneoplastic syndromes (PNSs) are remote effects of the primary tumor on tissues and organs, not related to direct invasion or metastasis. Ophthalmological involvement has been reported in 0.01-0.1% cases of PNSs. It may present as retinopathy, optic neuritis, myasthenia-like syndromes, or orbital myositis (OM), among others. An 89-year-old male with bilateral ocular pain and chemosis, was given an initial diagnosis of bilateral acute conjunctivitis. After 5 days, the patient presented worsening of the pain and bilateral complete op...
