چکیده
INTRODUCTION Injury is a known cause of monocular blindness. Ocular trauma may affect lacrimal canaliculi and the extraocular muscle. We report this case as it includes injury to lid, lacrimal canaliculi and inferior rectus. CASE DESCRIPTION A 25-year-old male presented with an injury caused by a sharp object that resulted in a conjunctival tear, lid tear involving the lacrimal canal, and rupture of the inferior rectus muscle. All of the structures were repaired successfully during a single procedure. CONCLUSION An extraocular injury involving the conjunctiva, lid, lacrimal passages, and extraocular muscles can be repaired successfully during a single procedure.

A 54-year-old man had a 5-year history of painless bilateral eyelid swelling, proptosis, and diplopia. MRI showed enlargement of extraocular muscles, lacrimal gland, and divisions of the trigeminal nerve (figure 1). Biopsy from the left infraorbital canal demonstrated lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate and fibrosis. Mean number of immunoglobulin G (IgG)41 cells was 155 per high-power field and ratio ...
متن کاملBenign orbital pseudolymphoma. Case report.
Orbital pseudolymphomas are uncommon benign tumors composed of reactive lymphocytes. The typical clinical presentation is painless onset of ptosis, proptosis, diplopia, or eyelid swelling. Virtually any adnexal structure can be affected, but lacrimal gland, orbital soft tissue, or extraocular muscles are the usual sites of involvement. Historically, treatment has been with oral corticosteroids ...

Extraocular muscle disease is typically associated with thyroid di sease. However, other rarer etiologies such as neoplasms and infec tion should also be considered. Lymphomas are the most common malignant tumors of the orbit in adults, and the majority of these are secondary to other systemic findings. On the basis of the classification of the World Health Or ganization (WHO), and with som...
