The Patterson operation for decompression of the orbit
Clinical Otolaryngology & Allied Sciences, 1986A modification of Patterson's external antro-ethmoidectomy operation is described which provides a more direct and simpler approach than the transantral operation for decompression of the orbit.

Results of orbital decompression in Taiwan
Orbit, 2001Orbital 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.

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.

Combined Approach to Orbital Decompression
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1990Upon 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
2020Graves’ 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 SurgeryCherubism 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

Orbital decompression: current concepts
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2002The orbit in Graves disease undergoes expansion in soft tissue content as a result of the infiltration of orbital fat, extraocular muscles, and the lacrimal gland. Compression of the intraorbital contents leads to disorders of the lid-corneal interface, keratopathy, motility disturbances, exophthalmos, and optic neuropathy.

Palliative orbital decompression for metastatic melanoma to the orbit
The Laryngoscope, 1980AbstractAlthough relatively rare, metastatic carcinomas to the orbit are the second most common orbital neoplasm in the adult. There are only ten cases reported in the literature of cutaneous melanoma metastatic to the orbit and, of these, only two had disease involving both orbits.
