Surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment for spheno-orbital meningiomas. The Sonopet® is an ultrasonic aspirator device that provides several advantages over the traditional standard suction techniques and bone drill, including decreased collateral soft tissue damage, more precise bone removal and a clearer operative field. The purpose of the study was to examine the treatment outcomes of Sonopet®-assisted resection of spheno-orbital meningiomas.

We report a case of a 47-year-old female who experienced periorbital swelling while descending from a Himalayan mountain climb and was found to have bilateral superior ophthalmic vein thromboses (SOVT). Infectious, autoimmune, and hypercoagulability work-up were negative with no cavernous sinus involvement. Symptoms resolved upon initiation of anticoagulation and oral steroids. SOVT is a rare but serious condition and has a risk of extending into the cavernous sinus if not treated early. Although infection is the most common etiology, venous thrombosis can be precipitated under high altitude and low oxygen pressure environments. We present a case of superior ophthalmic vein thrombosis associated with high-altitude conditions.

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a congenital syndrome with systemic manifestations secondary to a non-progressive lesion of the immature brain. It is associated with numerous cerebral and non-cerebral malformations. The present report describes a 2-year-old baby with spastic CP, diplegic type, associated with congenital cardiac malformations and right eye complex congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) (bony nasolacrimal duct stenosis and buried probe) requiring endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy and left eye simple CNLDO which resolved on probing the system. This report also lays emphasis on the need for examination of the lacrimal drainage system in all patients with CP, so as to treat them appropriately and reduce the morbidity.

Cutaneous melanoma of the eyelid constitutes less than 2% of all eyelid malignancies. Such cases in the pediatric population are even rarer, and exceedingly so in darkly pigmented individuals. A 9-year-old African American boy presented with a left upper eyelid lesion. Biopsy was consistent with deep penetrating melanoma, and the patient underwent a wide local excision and sentinel node biopsy. One upper parotid sentinel node was positive, leading to further parotidectomy and selective neck dissection. The eyelid defect was reconstructed by primary closure after margin clearance. This is the first reported case of cutaneous eyelid melanoma in an African American child with nodal metastasis. Clinical features of melanoma in the pediatric population can be more atypical and higher index of suspicion is indicated. While rare, the diagnosis of melanoma in darkly pigmented patients is still possible and cannot be excluded without a definitive biopsy.

Epiphora from monocanalicular obstruction is commonly treated with canaliculoplasty, with or without dacryocystorhinostomy, or with conjunctivodacryocystorhinostomy with Jones tube placement. We describe two patients with epiphora due to isolated monocanalicular obstruction without concurrent nasolacrimal duct obstruction who underwent endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy; both cases had previously failed canaliculoplasty, and both reported significant improvement in epiphora postoperatively. We hypothesize this is due to decreased resistance through the lacrimal drainage system allowing for increased flow through the patent canaliculus and shortened lacrimal apparatus. In patients presenting with epiphora secondary to isolated monocanalicular obstruction, endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy may be considered in the absence of nasolacrimal duct obstruction before proceeding to conjunctivodacryocystorhinostomy and Jones tube placement.

Lacrimal drainage apparatus melanoma is a rare entity that may arise primarily or, more commonly, as secondary involvement from melanoma originating elsewhere. Conjunctival melanoma may involve the lacrimal drainage apparatus (LDA) via spread along the canalicular epithelium, separate in situ processes, or direct invasion. Only seven cases exist in the literature where conjunctival melanoma remotely recurred in the LDA. We report three additional patients, two with invasive conjunctival melanoma and one with primary acquired melanosis (PAM) with severe atypia/melanoma in situ, who developed LDA melanoma at 5, 8, and 16 years after initial treatment of conjunctival melanoma. This report confirms the ability of conjunctival melanoma to give rise to spatially and temporally remote LDA melanoma despite adequate local treatment, and reviews the proposed mechanisms and associated characteristics of LDA recurrence in conjunctival melanoma.

An 11-year-old boy presented with a lesion of the right orbit that was thought to be a hemophilic pseudotumor. Excisional biopsy revealed an unexpected diagnosis of mesenchymal chondrosarcoma. Both mesenchymal chondrosarcoma and hemophilic pseudotumor of the orbit are exceedingly rare. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of orbital mesenchymal chondrosarcoma masquerading as hemophilic pseudotumor.

A 34-year-old Caucasian male who underwent a ventricular shunt at age 21 presented with bilateral enophthalmos, poor eyelid-globe apposition and exposure keratopathy characteristic of silent brain syndrome. Progressive enophthalmos and corneal decompensation were documented in serial photographs and radiographic studies over 36 years. Over this period, no sequelae of shunt over-drainage were observed. A lumbar puncture at the last follow-up measured CSF opening pressure to be within the normal range. Additional systemic findings included pneumosinus dilatans, loss of adipose tissue in the temporalis fossa and atrophy of the dorsal interossei of the hand. Surgical interventions to preserve ocular function included insertion of orbital floor wedge and sheet implants, sheet orbital roof implants, and retroplacement of canthal tendons. This report chronicles the long-term clinical course of a patient with silent brain syndrome. The systemic changes suggest factors beyond low intracranial pressure may contribute to the pathogenesis of the condition in our patient.
