PURPOSE This study compared clinical outcomes and complications between 23-gauge (23g) and 25-gauge (25g) transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy. STUDY DESIGN It was a retrospective study using data prospectively defined and collected. 80 eyes underwent 23g transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy, and 80 eyes underwent 25g surgery using the...

Although excellent results may be achieved in the management of many orbital floor injuries with standard transconjunctival or transcutaneous approaches, visualization of the posterior edge of the orbital floor or medial wall defect may be challenging at times. We describe our experience using endoscopic examination of the orbital floor through maxillary sinus approaches during the repair of se...

The ultimate goal in treating zygomatic complex fracture is to obtain an accurate, stable reduction while minimizing external scars and functional deformity. The present authors present our experiences with a single transconjunctival incision and two-point (inferior orbital rim and frontozygomatic suture) fixation in 53 patients with zygomatic complex fracture which were not comminuted. All pat...

BACKGROUND Limitations associated with traditional skin-muscle flaps and later with transconjunctival fat resection combined with carbon dioxide laser resurfacing have led to newer concepts in lower blepharoplasty that emphasize fat preservation, blending of the lid-cheek junction, simplified skin excision, and less morbid resurfacing techniques. Avoiding incision through the orbicularis muscle...
