Endoscopic Transnasal Orbital Decompression

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1990
Orbital decompression for dysthyroid orbitopathy has traditionally been performed through either an external or a transantral approach. The advent of intranasal endoscopes allowed for the development of a transnasal approach for medial and inferior orbital wall decompression.

Orbital Decompression: Cadaver Study

The Journal of Otolaryngology, 2006
Patients with Graves' ophthalmopathy may need surgical treatment to alleviate ophthalmologic complications. The degree of reduction in proptosis following surgical intervention remains difficult to predict.To elaborate a human model using cadaver orbits to study surgical management of Graves' ophthalmopathy.

Orbital decompression.

The American surgeon, 1980
A new technique for exposure of the orbit for decompression of the orbit is described. It may be used for other purposes such as orbital fracture repair, orbital exploration for tumors in the inferior orbit, or reconstruction of the orbit by a variety of methods. The technique provides ready, broad exposure.

Results of orbital decompression in Taiwan

Orbit, 2001
Orbital decompression was performed on 116 orbits with Graves' ophthalmopathy. The indications for decompression were dysthyroid optic neuropathy (DON), recalcitrant corneal exposure (EXP) and disfiguring exophthalmos (COS). All cases but one (in the DON group) had improved or unchanged vision.

Combined Approach to Orbital Decompression

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1990
Upon occasion, surgical orbital decompression is indicated to treat thyroid ophthalmopathy. Of the various approaches described, we feel a combined ophthalmic-otolaryngologic technique is the safest and most effective means of decompressing the orbit.

Orbital Imaging for Orbital Decompression

2020
Graves’ disease is an autoimmune disorder characterized by thyroid gland hyperplasia and excessive production of thyroid hormones [1]. Involvement of the eye, also known as Graves’ Ophthalmopathy or Thyroid Eye Disease (TED) is the most common extrathyroidal manifestation of Graves’ disease [2]. TED results from infiltration of the orbital soft tissues

Transconjunctival Orbital Decompression in Cherubism

Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
Cherubism is a rare fibro-osseous disease characterized by the progressive expansion of the mandible and maxilla during childhood. Orbital involvement occurs in a subset of patients and is clinically manifested as upward displacement of the affected eye. The bony changes tend to spontaneously diminish or even regress after puberty. The authors report a
