Ophthalmic Artery Embolization as Pretreatment of Orbital Exenteration for Conjunctival Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Cardiovascular and interventional radiology, 2008Co-Authors: Toshihiko Matsuo, Nobuya Ohara, Yuzaburo Namba, Isao Koshima, Kentaro Ida, Susumu KanazawaAbstract:The aim of this study is to describe the effect of transarterial embolization from the ophthalmic artery as a pretreatment for orbital exenteration. A 75-year-old Chinese man with a 7-year history of gradual increase of the left Eye Swelling showed a massive conjunctival tumor growing outwardly from the interpalpebral fissure and had no light perception in the left Eye. Magnetic resonance imaging showed orbital invasion of the tumor around the left Eyeglobe. The initial surgery for the planned orbital exenteration was discontinued after skin incision around the orbital margin due to massive hemorrhage. The patient underwent transarterial embolization with gelatin sponge (Spongel) of the feeding arteries from the left ophthalmic artery and, the next day, had orbital exenteration with well-controllable bleeding and reconstruction with free vascularized anterolateral thigh cutaneous flap transfer. Pathologically, well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma proliferated in exophytic, papillary, and nested fashions, arising from the bulbar conjunctiva. Tumor cells were also found in the conjunctival stroma around the vessels. The sclera at the equator had a perforated site with tumor cell invasion, but no intraocular invasion was found. Hematoxylin-positive gelatin sponges were found inside the orbital vessels and large choroidal vessels. In conclusion, transarterial embolization of feeding arteries arising from the ophthalmic artery is a useful pretreatment to control bleeding at orbital exenteration for malignancy.

Eye Swelling and lacrimal gland lymphoma.
QJM : monthly journal of the Association of Physicians, 2017Co-Authors: Priyadarshini Loganathan, Mahesh GajendranAbstract:We report an interesting case of lacrimal gland diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in a 54 year old male who presented with 4 week history of progressively worsening Eye Swelling. The diagnosis was confirmed with orbital biopsy and the patient was started on chemotherapy with improvement in the Eye Swelling.

Clinical Images - A Quarterly Column: Adolescent Boy with Right Facial and Eye Swelling
The Ochsner journal, 2014Co-Authors: Kathryn Pflug, James Milburn, Kimsey H. RodriguezAbstract:We describe the case of a child who presented with right Eye Swelling who was subsequently found to have a large soft tissue mass filling the sphenoid sinus, nasopharynx, and posterior right nasal fossa. A 9-year-old boy presented with right Eye Swelling. He had also experienced 1 recent episode of

HTLV Associated T-cell Lymphoma Presenting as a Sinus Mass with Proptosis: A Case Report
The Laryngoscope, 2010Co-Authors: Christopher Mascarinas, Neil Prufer, Matthew B. HansonAbstract:Results: A 48 year old woman from Guyana presented with bilateral Eye Swelling and unilateral vision loss progressing over 4 weeks. On examination there was severe bilateral proptosis and chemosis. Imaging studies showed a large mass centered in the ethmoid sinuses with bilateral orbital invasion but no intracranial extension. An orbital biopsy revealed a large Tcell lymphoma. Serologic tests for HTLV were positive. She was treated with chemotherapy and responded well with improvement of vision in both Eyes.
