Ophthoquestions Plastics Flashcards
Patients with recurrent chalazion in same location whose contents are filled with solid materials should be evaluated for
Sebaceous gland carcinoma
Stain used for sebaceous gland carcinoma
Oil red O
Type a spread exhibited by sebaceous gland carcinoma
Pagetoid spread. Perform map biopsy of conjunctiva if biopsy is positive. Can have skip lesions.
How long do lashes take to regrow after epilation
3-6 weeks
Lesion that appears at 1-2 months of age, enlarges initially and then stabilizes with spontaneous resolution between 3-5 years of age.
Capillary hemangioma
Treatment indications for capillary hemangioma
Lesion induces refractive error or lesion causes eyelid to obstruct visual axis (amblyiogenic)
Treatment options Capillary Hemangioma
Superficial lesions: topical timolol
Larger/deep lesions: Oral propranolol
Last resort: surgical excision for refractive lesions
Sarcoidosis: common ocular findings
anterior or posterior uveitis (30-70%), conjunctival nodules (40%)
Most commonly affected adnexal structure in Sarcoidosis
Lacrimal gland
Most common cause of congenital nasolacrimal obstruction
Valve of Hasner
What bones constitute the Roof, Medial wall, Floor, and Lateral wall of the orbit?
Roof: Front Less (frontal bone, lesser wing of sphenoid)
Medial wall: SMEL (Sphenoid, Maxilla, Ethmoid, Lacrimal)
Floor: MoP Z (Maxilla, Palatine, Zygomatic)
Lateral wall: Great Z (greater wing of sphenoid, zygomatic)
NF1 ocular findings and associations
Lisch nodules, optic nerve glioma, Plexiform neuroma (can result in S-shaped upper eyelid deformity)
Compound helps disperse lidocaine
hyaluronidase
Most common eyelid cancer
Basal cell carcinoma (40x rate of SCC)
Most common site for Basal cell carcinoma
lower eyelid (50-60%), Medial canthus (25-30%), upper eyelid (15%), Lateral canthus (5%)
Basal cell carcinoma appearance
Pearly nodule sometimes with telangiectasia. Peripheral palisading histologically
Ophthalmic division of CN V primary branches:
Lacrimal, nasociliary, and frontal branches
Frontal divides into supratrochlear and supraorbital.
Nasociliary divides into short and long ciliary nerves
Nerve that innervates Cornea
Nasociliary branch of V1. Also gives off branches that supply the ethmoid sinus, lateral wall of nose, and tip of nose
Different procedures for
- <33% full thickness deficit
- Defect between 33-50%
- Defect > 50% in lower eyelid
- Defect >50% in upper eyelid
- Direct closure
- Lateral canthotomy then semicircular flap (tenzel flap)
- Modified Hughes procedure
- Cutler-Beard procedure
