Imaging Features of Eyelid Pilomatraixoma
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pilomatrixoma is an uncommon benign tumor of matrix cells of hair follicles that rarely involves eyelids. Here we present a case of 4-year-old girl who was brought to hospital with swelling in the left upper eyelid which increased gradually in 1 year. Computed tomography revealed calcified soft tissue mass. The mass was excised successfully and sent for histopathological examination that showed encapsulated tumor composed of eosinophilic ghost cells and basophilic cells suggestive of pilomatrixoma.

Use of Crossed Polarizers to Enhance Images of the Eyelids.
PURPOSE To describe imaging of the external eye with Crossed Polarizers to enhance clinically important features in digital photographs of the eyelids. METHODS External photographs with and without crossed polarizing filters were taken of patients with blepharitis and controls with no clinical eye pathology. RESULTS Photographing eyelid skin through Crossed Polarizers decreased reflections ...
متن کاملEfficient Iris Segmentation Based on Eyelid Detection
This paper proposes a computationally efficient eyelid detection algorithm for detecting eyelid boundaries in iris images acquired under less constrained imaging conditions. The proposed eyelid detection algorithm is developed based on the live-wire technique. The major advantage of the proposed algorithm is its computational simplicity as compared to the prior eyelid detection algorithms. The ...
متن کاملCT and MR imaging findings of periorbital lipogranuloma developing after endoscopic sinus surgery.
SUMMARY Periorbital lipogranuloma is a rare complication after ESS and presently lacks specific imaging reports. The purpose of this study was to describe the CT and MR imaging features of periorbital lipogranuloma. We retrospectively reviewed 9 patients with histology-confirmed periorbital lipogranuloma. All 9 patients underwent CT and MR imaging. Five lipogranulomas were located in the right ...
متن کاملBlood Perfusion in a Full-Thickness Eyelid Flap, Investigated by Laser Doppler Velocimetry, Laser Speckle Contrast Imaging, and Thermography
Purpose: The eyelid is commonly dissected and divided in the process of, for example, blepharotomy, entropion repair, or when preparing a full-thickness eyelid flap to reconstruct a tumor defect. No study has yet been conducted to examine how perfusion in an eyelid is affected by dissection, using modern imaging techniques. Methods: The eyelid was divided with a 10-mm vertical incision, 5 mm fr...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging study of eye congenital birth defects in mouse model
PURPOSE Embryonic eyelid closure is a well-documented morphogenetic episode in mammalian eye development. Detection of eyelid closure defect in humans is a major challenge because eyelid closure and reopen occur entirely in utero. As a consequence, congenital eye defects that are associated with failure of embryonic eyelid closure remain unknown. To fill the gap, we developed a mouse model of d...
