Minimally invasive orbital decompression: local anesthesia and hand-carved bone.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the safety and efficacy of a conservative orbital decompression using sharp-curette bony decompression and intraconal fat debulking through a transconjunctival incision in patients with thyroid-related orbitopathy and mild to moderate proptosis. DESIGN Retrospective, noncomparative, interventional case series. PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS Data from all patients undergoi...
متن کاملMinimally Invasive Lumbar Decompression for Spinal Stenosis
Over 1.2 million patients are diagnosed with, and in active treatment for lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) at any given time. Typically, these patients experience discomfort while walking or standing, for any length of time. The LSS treatment algorithm contains a gap of under-treated patients between epidural steroid injections (ESI) and open surgery. With the introduction of a minimally invasive l...

Participants and Methods: Data from all patients undergoing minimal orbital decompression at the Jules Stein Eye Institute, Los Angeles, Calif, over a period of 41⁄4 years were collected and analyzed. Data included visual acuity, exophthalmometry measurements, intraocular pressure, complete slitlamp examination results, ocular ductions, new-onset primary or downgaze diplopia, and patient satisf...
متن کاملSurgical Advances in Orbital Decompression Orbital Fat Decompression - Endoscopic Medial Decompression Internal Orbital Contouring
Treatment of proptosis in the stable phase of Graves’ orbitopathy differs significantly from that in the acute inflammatory phase. The treatment paradigm employed at the Harkness Eye Institute, reserves surgical decompression in the acute phase for those cases of optic neuropathy that fail to respond to orbital radiotherapy or when radiotherapy is contraindicated. Owing to the 90% success rate ...
متن کاملTransnasal endoscopic orbital decompression
Transnasal endoscopic orbital decompression is a viable alternative for external orbital decompression. Today, it can be performed due to the great development of endoscopic technology and specific endoscopic surgical instruments. It requires strong anatomic knowledge and skilled hands. We present our experience with endoscopic orbital decompression focusing on the surgical technique used in ou...
