A difficult surgical approach for primary orbital hydatid cyst: transconjunctival medial orbitotomy
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hydatid cysts rarely appear isolated in the orbital cavity without involvement of other organs. The cysts are usually located in the retrobulbar region, and may be extraconal or intraconal. Herein we present a case of primary orbital cyst hydatid that is adjacent to the medial rectus muscle and optic nerve in the intraconal space and the difficulties during the surgical and medical treatment period.

Hydatid cyst of the head and neck is a very rare condition, even in areas where Echinococcus infestation is endemic. Orbital hydatid cyst is extremely rare and accounts for less than 1% of all hydatid cysts. Herein a 24-year-old man with primary orbital hydatid cyst is i...
متن کاملSurgical Outcomes of Transconjunctival Anterior Orbitotomy for Intraconal Orbital Cavernous Hemangioma
PURPOSE To describe surgical outcomes for transconjunctival anterior orbitotomy for intraconal cavernous hemangiomas. METHODS The medical records of 9 consecutive patients with intraconal cavernous hemangiomas who underwent surgical removal by transconjunctival anterior orbitotomy were retrospectively reviewed. The conjunctiva was incised and retracted with a traction suture. For large tumors...

OBJECTIVE To develop and evaluate a minimally invasive technique of lateral orbitotomy that provides improved orbital access with fewer complications. METHODS A cadaver study was undertaken to develop a technique of transconjunctival lateral orbitotomy that preserves the structural integrity of the eyelid support system and provides extended access to the orbit from floor to roof. We then eva...

Background Access to the intraorbital optic nerve segment can be facilitated via a transcranial approach that allows access to the entire orbital cavity. The endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) combined with a transconjunctival-medial orbitotomy represents an alternative technique to achieve the same goal. Objective Report a surgical technique that allows total resection of the intraorbital opt...
