Orbital inflammatory syndrome (OIS) is a diagnosis of exclusion that has a variable presentation and unpredictable course. Many studies report incomplete or lack of OIS resolution with high recurrence and relapse rates. No studies to date have investigated the characteristics of both recurrence and relapse in OIS. We sought to determine this in both pediatric and adult patients.

A 22-year-old woman presented with an acute compressive optic neuropathy due to a ruptured ethmoido-orbital mucocele. She underwent urgent orbital decompression and drainage of the mucocele via an endoscopic approach. Postoperatively, her course was complicated by an orbital compartment syndrome supervened, exhibiting severe eyelid edema caused by infiltration with mucin and mucin-containing macrophages (“muciphages”). Biopsy of the eyelid showed infiltration with “muciphages,” macrophages laden with extravasated mucinous material. This is the first report that documents the clinical and histopathologic course of orbital inflammation following mucocele extravasation into the orbit and eyelids.

Conjunctival mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma classically presents as a subconjunctival mass, most often in the fornix. The presence of conjunctival mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma with spread down the nasolacrimal duct has only been reported once previously. The authors present a case of a 35-year-old woman with a right conjunctival mass in the inferior fornix along with sinus congestion and fullness. A biopsy of the conjunctival mass and the nasal turbinate revealed a conjunctival mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. Therefore, it is important to consider spread down the nasolacrimal duct in patients with conjunctival lymphoma also presenting with difficulty breathing or nasal congestion.

Phyllodes tumors are rare and account for 0.5% of all mammary neoplasms. They commonly present as lobulated breast tumors and have a variable clinical course. Histologically, phyllodes tumor is composed of 2 major elements: stromal element composed of spindle cells admixed with collagen and epithelial element in the form of epithelium lined cysts and clefts. Metastasis is rarely seen with phyllodes tumors. Sarcomatous component of phyllodes tumor metastasizes to lung, liver, adrenal, brain, and bones by hematogenous route. A thorough literature search did not reveal any report of orbital metastasis from malignant phyllodes tumor. Here, the authors describe a rare case of malignant phyllodes tumor of the breast with metastasis to the orbit in a 46-year-old female patient.

The authors present 2 patients with locally advanced conjunctival melanoma for whom definitive surgery would mean an orbital exenteration with its associated inherent total visual loss and major facial disfigurement. Instead both patients were treated with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. In 1 patient neoadjuvant pembrolizumab was used for approximately 12 months and the patient experienced near-total clinical resolution of the conjunctival melanoma. Multiple surgical biopsies of very small residual pigmentation showed pigmented macrophages and a complete pathologic response. In the second patient who presented with a locally advanced and metastatic conjunctival melanoma, significant shrinkage of conjunctival mass was observed after treatment with a combination of ipilimumab and nivolumab for 5 months, and this allowed preservation of the eye and ocular function.

A 9-year-old girl presented with a 3-day history of progressive proptosis accompanied by transient discomfort and blurry vision in the OD. MRI revealed a heterogeneously enhancing intraconal lesion that partially encased and displaced the optic nerve. There was no intraocular or intracranial involvement, nor were there signs of distant metastasis. Histopathologic evaluation and immunohistochemistry were consistent with orbital medulloepithelioma. The patient received 4 cycles of chemoradiation per a retinoblastoma protocol. Repeat MRI scans showed significant tumor regression, and further surgical debulking was performed. There has been no evidence of recurrence for over 14 months. Herein, the authors describe an eye-sparing, multimodal treatment of a rare case of localized orbital medulloepithelioma.

Many postoperative complications are known to occur as a result of orbital floor fracture repair, but loss of lacrimal gland function has not been reported. The authors present a patient who lost reflex tearing after undergoing orbital floor fracture repair by an outside surgeon. CT scan showed placement of the posterolateral edge of the implant through the inferior orbital fissure, which presumably transected the parasympathetic fibers innervating the lacrimal gland.

Crizotinib, a targeted molecular therapy drug which inhibits tyrosine kinase, is approved for treatment of non-small cell lung carcinoma which has some ocular side effects like photopsia and delayed dark adaptation.This report documents a unique case of persistent conjunctival chemosis likely due to side effects of crizotinib therapy. A 64-year-old gentleman on crizotinib for metastatic adenocarcinoma of the lung presented with conjunctival chemosis in right eye which appeared 1 month after uneventful clear corneal phacoemulsification surgery. The patient was on crizotinib 250?mg twice a day started 2 months before cataract surgery. Clinical examination revealed marked inferior bulbar conjunctival edema of the right eye. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography, slit-lamp photographs, and magnetic resonance imaging orbit and systemic investigation were done to rule out other causes of conjunctival edema. Magnetic resonance imaging shows conjunctival and preseptal edema around both eye and thinning of the optic nerve in the right eye. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography revealed elevated hyper-reflective thickened conjunctival layer with dilated empty thin wall dark spaces of varying caliber. Chemosis was persisted for the next 3 months and not responded to oral acetazolamide, topical steroid and decongestive eyedrops. After 3 months, crizotinib was discontinued by oncologist due to drug intolerance and surprisingly within 1 week, the conjunctival edema was disappeared totally. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first reported case of persistent unilateral non-inflammatory conjunctival chemosis caused by crizotinib. The physicians should be vigilant about these complications.

Radiation-induced malignancy is rare, occurring in approximately 0.4%–1.0% of patients receiving external beam radiation therapy. Sarcomas and squamous cell carcinomas are among the most common types of cancers to occur. A 74-year-old woman presented with redness and swelling in the right periorbital region. She had history of multiple recurrent ameloblastoma of the right maxilla, invading the right orbital floor status post 4 surgical resections and 66 Gray external beam radiotherapy 5 years prior. MRI showed a poorly circumscribed mass involving the inferior and lateral orbit. Orbital biopsy revealed clear cell carcinoma with hyalinizing sclerosis and Ewing sarcoma breakpoint region 1 gene arrangement. Due to the extent of orbital disease and presence of perineural invasion, she underwent orbital exenteration. Hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma, a rare cancer, has not been reported to occur in the orbit following radiation. This case highlights the importance of lifetime monitoring in patients who have undergone radiation therapy.

Simple bone cyst is a benign osteolytic lesion, found primarily in the mandible, occasionally in the maxilla, and rarely in the zygoma. A 17-year-old male patient with 6-month history of left facial mass presented with worsening proptosis and displacement of left eyeball associated with reduced OS vision. The lesion was painless to start with, but with time, he reported OS pain. There was no history of any trauma. CT scan and MRI of orbit performed revealed cystic bony lesion involving greater wing of sphenoid. He subsequently had excision of the left facial mass with exenteration of OS due to poor visual prognosis, followed by reconstruction with osteomyocutaneous flap from left scapular region. The histopathologic features were consistent with a diagnosis of simple bone cyst of zygomatic arch.

Respiratory epithelial orbital cysts (REOC) are rare benign lesions that may be either congenital or acquired. Congenital REOC develop from embryological epithelial rests and are known as choristomas, whereas acquired forms develop from the sequestration of respiratory epithelium from adjacent paranasal sinuses following trauma and/or fracture repair procedures. The final diagnosis can be difficult because congenital and acquired REOC and mucoceles share the same features histologically. The involvement of the paranasal sinuses, which is the landmark of mucoceles, does not occur with REOC. Moreover, the intracranial extension, which is known for mucoceles, has never been reported for REOC. Respiratory epithelial orbital cysts warrant prompt radical surgical resection given that these lesions may lead to a progressive intracranial progression and/or recurrent infection with a potential for meningitis or cerebral abscess. The authors report a unique case of a patient with an intraorbital posttraumatic respiratory epithelial orbital cyst associated with intracranial involvement.

An 8-year-old boy with a history of refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia presented with left-sided periorbital erythema and painless enlargement of the lacrimal sac. MRI revealed a soft tissue mass on the floor of the left orbit, extending into the nasolacrimal sac and duct. Lacrimal sac biopsy was consistent with B-lymphoblastic leukemia. The patient was treated with chemotherapy and radiation with satisfactory remission of local disease. However, similar symptoms emerged shortly after on the contralateral side, and repeat MRI was concerning for new leukemic infiltration of the right lacrimal sac. Bone marrow biopsy revealed concurrent medullary relapse. Systemic chemotherapy was adjusted and radiation therapy of the right orbit was initiated. This is the first reported pediatric case of bilateral leukemic involvement of the lacrimal sac.

Orbital involvement with histologic necrosis is a rare manifestation of systemic sarcoidosis. The authors present a case of necrotizing dacryoadenitis in addition to non-necrotizing granulomas in a hypertrophic scar that is consistent with a diagnosis of sarcoidosis. A 60-year-old female presented with 2 months of painless right upper eyelid fullness and ptosis. CT imaging demonstrated right greater than left lacrimal gland enlargement. A biopsy demonstrated necrotizing granulomatous inflammation of the lacrimal gland. Additional workup was negative for infectious or lymphoproliferative disease. On further investigation, the patient noted thickening of a longstanding abdominal scar, and a subsequent punch biopsy of the scar demonstrated non-necrotizing granulomas suggestive of scar sarcoidosis. CT chest identified mediastinal lymphadenopathy. A diagnosis of sarcoidosis was determined. The authors thereby present an unusual case of 2 histologic variants of sarcoidosis presenting with necrotizing granulomatous dacryoadenitis and non-necrotizing scar granulomas.

A 63 year-old man presented with 3 weeks of worsening, painless left-sided proptosis, ptosis, and diplopia. Examination of the affected eye revealed normal visual acuity, normal intraocular pressure in the presence of a shallow anterior chamber, grade 1 relative afferent pupillary defect, restricted motility in all directions of gaze, and 6?mm of proptosis. Ultrasound biomicroscopy revealed uveal effusions with anterior rotation of the ciliary body causing appositional angle closure. B-scan ultrasonography and MRI demonstrated enhancement of the posterior globe and an infiltrative mass involving the lacrimal gland and multiple extraocular muscles. Laboratory studies revealed positive perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody with elevated myeloperoxidase antibodies, consistent with a diagnosis of microscopic polyangiitis. Biopsy showed nonspecific dacryoadenitis. Intravenous and oral corticosteroids were associated with rapid improvement of all examination findings. The patient was later switched to rituximab steroid-sparing therapy and has shown no recurrence of disease at 3-months follow-up.
