Two cases of orbital tumor excision using a modified swinging eyelid approach
Author: Ken Yamashita
ePoster Number: 267,00
Purpose
The swinging eyelid approach is a technique that can achieve a wide surgical area of the orbit and the anterior surface of the zygoma through a single incision, and is used for facial bone fractures and orbital tumor excision. However, the original method requires an lateral canthotomy to expand a surgical area, which may cause complications such as external canthal malposition. On the other hand, the lateral paracanthal incision is not performed with lateral canthotomy, but by making a full layer incision in the lower eyelid, which makes it easier to adjust the lid margin on wound closure, but has the disadvantage of not being able to obtain a wide surgical area. We used a combination of these two methods.
Methods
Two cases of orbital tumors were excised using this method.
Results
By using this method, a wide surgical field could be obtained and the wound could be closed without any complicated procedures.
Conclusion
Although the swinging eyelid approach is a useful method, the complications on wound closure was a problem because of the need for lateral canthotomy. This method is useful because it allows for a large surgical area and easier wound closure.
