Endoscopic intranasal orbital decompression in the course of Graves’ orbitopathy
The authors present the endoscopic intranasal orbital decompression, one of the surgical techniques used for orbital decompression. It can be applied for various indications. The most common indications are: maxillo-facial trauma, orbital haemorrhage, subperiorbital abscess as the complication of sinusitis, optic neuropathy, thyroidassociated orbitopathy (Graves’ orbitopathy). The authors concl...
متن کاملSurgical complications in orbital decompression for Graves' orbitopathy
The objective of this study is to analyse the complications of orbital decompression in Graves' orbitopathy. The clinical records of 946 patients who had been operated on with orbital decompression for Graves' orbitopathy were reviewed and the intra- and post-operative complications with minimum follow-up of six months were analysed. An extensive review of the literature was carried out to comp...
متن کاملReasons for revision surgery after orbital decompression for Graves’ orbitopathy
OBJECTIVES An analysis of complications and causes of failure in orbital decompression necessitating a second operation. METHODS Between December 1992 and April 2007, 375 patients (719 orbits) were operated on using various techniques. Fourteen patients were initially operated on in our unit: 8 (group A1) were re-operated on after a short time due to complications connected with the decompres...
متن کاملCoronal approach for rehabilitative orbital decompression in Graves' ophthalmopathy.
AIMS To determine the effectiveness and safety of three wall orbital decompression by the coronal approach in Graves' ophthalmopathy. METHODS The records of 125 patients with Graves' ophthalmopathy, who had undergone three wall orbital decompression by coronal approach between April 1984 and October 1993, were studied retrospectively. Special attention was paid to proptosis reduction, changes...
متن کاملReduction of Orbital Inflammation following Decompression for Thyroid-Related Orbitopathy
PURPOSE Thyroid-related orbitopathy (TRO) is associated with inflammation, expansion of orbital fat, enlargement of extraocular muscles, and optic neuropathy (ON). We examined the effects of orbital decompression on the inflammatory and congestive signs of TRO in patients who underwent emergent orbital decompression. METHODS This retrospective, consecutive study included patients with ON from...
