  • MR Imaging of the Orbital Apex

Space-occupying lesions in this area can result in clinical d- eficits caused by compression of the optic nerve or extraocular muscles. Even vas c u l a r changes in the cavernous sinus can produce a direct mass effect and affect the orbit ap e x. When pathologic changes in this region is suspected, contrast-enhanced MR imaging with fat saturation is very useful. According to the anatomic regions from which the lesions arise, they can be classi- fied as belonging to one of five groups; lesions of the optic nerve-sheath complex, of the conal and intraconal spaces, of the extraconal space and bony orbit, of the cav- ernous sinus or diffuse. The characteristic MR findings of various orbital lesions will be described in this paper.

  • Evisceration, Enucleation and Exenteration
    CHAPTER 10 EVISCERATION, ENUCLEATION AND EXENTERATION This chapter describes three operations that either remove the contents of the eye (evisceration), the eye itself (enucleation) or the whole orbital contents (exenteration). Each operation has specific indications which are important to understand. In many cultures the removal of an eye, even if blind, is resisted. If an eye is very painful or grossly disfigured an operation will be accepted more readily. However, if the eye looks normal the patient or their family may be very reluctant to accept its removal. Therefore tact, compassion and patience are needed when recommending these operations. ENUCLEATION AND EVISCERATION There are several reasons why either of these destructive operations may be necessary: 1. Malignant tumours in the eye. In the case of a malignant tumour or suspected malignant tumour the eye should be removed by enucleation and not evisceration.There are two important intraocular tumours, retinoblastoma and melanoma and for both of them the basic treatment is enucleation. Retinoblastoma is a relatively common tumour in early childhood. At first the growth is confined to the eye. Enucleation must be carried out at this stage and will probably save the child’s life. It is vital not to delay or postpone surgery. If a child under 6 has a blind eye and the possibility of a tumour cannot be ruled out, it is best to remove the eye. Always examine the other eye very carefully under anaesthetic as well. It may contain an early retinoblastoma which could be treatable and still save the eye. Retinoblastoma spreads along the optic nerve to the brain.

K.V 2. *1 Assistant Professor, Department Of Anatomy,Sri Devaraj Urs Medical College ,Tamaka, Kolar, Karnataka, India. 2 Professor And Head, Department Of Anatomy ,Sri Devaraj Urs Medical College, Tamaka, Kolar, India. ABSTRACT Introduction: Foramen ovale is an important foramen in the middle cranial fossa. Foramen ovale is situated in the greater wing of sphenoid bone, posterior to the foramen rotandum. Through the foramen ovale the mandibular nerve, accessory meningeal artery, lesser petrosal nerve, emissary veins pass .The shape of the foramen ovale is usually oval compared to other foramen of the skull. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted on 55 dry human skulls(110 sides) in Department of Anatomy, Sri Devaraj Urs Medical college, Tamaka, Kolar. Skulls in poor condition or skulls with partially damaged surroundings around the foramen ovale were excluded from the study. Linear measurements were taken on right and left sides of foramen ovale using divider and meter rule. Results: The maximum length of foramen ovale was 14 mm on the right side and 17 mm on the left, its maximum breadth on the right side was 8mm and 10mm on the left . Through the statistical analysis of morphometric measurements between right and left foramen ovale which was found to be insignificant , the results of both sides marks as the evidence of asymmetry in the morphometry of the foramen ovale.

  • The Role of the Sclera and Orbital Tissues in the Biomechanical Deformation Response of the Cornea and Whole Eye Under Loading B
    The Role of the Sclera and Orbital Tissues in the Biomechanical Deformation Response of the Cornea and Whole Eye Under Loading by Dynamic Scheimpflug Analyzer Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Boihoan Audrey Nguyen, M.S. Graduate Program in Biomedical Engineering The Ohio State University 2019 Dissertation Committee Cynthia J. Roberts, Ph.D, Advisor Matthew A. Reilly, Ph.D., Co-advisor Jun Liu, Ph.D., Committee Member Copyrighted by Boihoan Audrey Nguyen 2019 2 Abstract The biomechanical behavior of the ocular and orbital tissues are important to maintaining proper structure and function of the eye. The cornea and the sclera are the two main components of the ocular shell, which are loaded by IOP and are responsible for maintaining the structure and therefore function of the eye. This work comprises of four studies which explore the contribution of the sclera and the biomechanical response of the eye. The first study focused on the development of a finite-element model to explore the impact of varying scleral properties on the deformation response of the cornea to an air- puff. An axisymmetric model of the eye – consisting of a cornea, sclera, and vitreous humor – loaded internally by intraocular pressure (IOP) and externally by an air-puff from a noncontact tonometer was generated in COMSOL 5.2a. Our results showed that increasing scleral stiffness (with constant corneal stiffness and IOP) resulted in decreasing displacement of the corneal apex, i.e. the cornea responded to the air-puff as if it had stiffer mechanical properties.

  • ORBITAL & PERIOCULAR TUMORS Orbit: Orbital Lymphoma: This Is The
    ORBITAL & PERIOCULAR TUMORS Orbit: Orbital lymphoma: This is the most common type of cancer of the orbit in adults. It is usually a form of B-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. There are several types of B-cell lymphomas that occur in the orbit. These include MALT, follicular lymphoma, large B-cell lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma. Less-common types include natural killer T-cell lymphoma, mycosis fungoidis and Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Diagnosing orbital lymphoma often starts with a CT scan followed by a surgical biopsy. Treatment may include radiation, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or a combination of these, depending on type of lymphoma and the stage of the cancer. Orbital sarcoma: Sarcomas arise from muscles or fatty tissue. The most common sarcoma in the orbit is rhabdomyosarcoma, which is found most frequently in children. The most common type of orbital rhabdomyosarcoma can be treated with a combination of chemotherapyy and radiation. This combination can prevent the need for removal of the eye and orbital content in the majority of patients. Orbital and optic nerve meningiomas: These tumors are benign, meaning they are not cancerous and do not spread. They can be associated with the optic nerve. They can also form in the meninges (membranes that line the skull and enclose the brain and top of the spinal cord) in the base of the skull and extend into the orbit. These tumors are usually diagnosed with an imaging exam, such as an MRI of the orbit. Treatment usually includes radiation. Metastatic orbital tumors: Almost all types of cancer can metastasize (spread) to the orbit (the space behind and around the eye).
