To identify clinical risk factors for enucleation or evisceration in patients with endophthalmitis at an academic institution....
A retrospective review of patients diagnosed with endophthalmitis at Wilmer Eye Institute from 2010 to 2019 was conducted. Clinical characteristics, including demographics, cause for endophthalmitis, ...
Two hundred and fifty three patients treated for endophthalmitis over the study period were identified, of which 25 (9.88%) underwent enucleation or evisceration. Risk factors for enucleation or evisc...
Patients with endophthalmitis who underwent enucleation or evisceration had more severe disease on presentation compared to those treated with eye sparing therapy. Presenting clinical characteristics ...
Iris nodules are frequently noted as clinical manifestations of neurofibromatosis type 1 but the other intraocular manifestations are rare. The purpose of this study is to present a patient with a pht...
A 17-year-old man with neurofibromatosis type 1 from infancy underwent the enucleation of phthisic left eye and also had the resection of eyelid subcutaneous mass lesions on the left side for a cosmet...
In review of enucleated eyes of 14 patients in the literature, buphthalmic eyes with early-onset glaucoma on the unilateral side was clinically diagnosed in 9 patients who frequently showed varying ex...
In summary of the 15 patients with neurofibromatosis type 1, including the present patient, buphthalmic or phthisic eyes with no vision were enucleated for cosmetic reasons and showed choroidal neurof...
To investigate post-enucleation outcomes and assess the effect of extrascleral extension (ESE) on these outcomes for patients with uveal melanoma (UM) managed at a tertiary referral centre in Scotland...
Retrospective review of all cases of UM managed by the Scottish Ocular Oncology Service for which enucleation was undertaken between 13/03/2008 and 31/12/2020. Primary outcomes were length of survival...
Of 172 enucleated UMs, 32 (18.6%) had ESE. Over a median follow-up period of 33.7 months (range = 1.1-163.7 months), 91 (52.9%) patients died. The median length of all-cause survival of 54.1 months (r...
ESE was present in one-sixth of our cohort and was associated with a significantly shorter length of survival, particularly in the presence of ESE > 5 mm or high-risk characteristics warranting adjuva...
To evaluate the correlation between clinical presentations, radiological findings and high risk histopathological features of primary enucleated eyes in patients with advanced retinoblastoma at a tert...
We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who were treated with primary enucleation of tumor eyes between 2015-2020. Demographic data, radiological assessment, and histopathological ...
Thirty-three enucleated eyes were enrolled in this study. The mean age at diagnosis was 23.12 months. Most patients had unilateral group E retinoblastoma, with no difference in sex and laterality of t...
Patients with unilateral retinoblastoma who presented with older age related to high-risk features after enucleation. Ophthalmic examination with slitlamp is the best way for detection of anterior seg...
To determine the rate of enucleation in Germany and the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic may have had on its characteristics....
The rates of enucleation in Germany during 2019 and 2020 were extracted from the diagnosis-related groups (DRG) registry using the operation and procedure classification system codes 5‑163.0 through 5...
The number of enucleations showed a 16.6% reduction from 1295 cases in 2019 compared to 1080 cases in 2020 (p = 0.17). In both years men averaged 54.1% of cases. Patients older than 65 years represent...
Despite the decrease in the total number of procedures performed, the rate of enucleation in Germany was not significantly altered by the COVID-19 pandemic. The rate of enucleation without implants an...
To compare the risk and pattern of High-Risk Pathologic Features (HRPF) in retinoblastoma between primary and secondary enucleation....
A retrospective analysis of 121 eyes from 118 patients who underwent enucleation at the King Hussein Cancer Center (KHCC) Amman, Jordan, between November 2009 and January 2020. Demographic information...
Patients in the secondary group (49/121 eyes, 40%) were considerably younger at diagnosis (p = 0.0014), had bilateral disease (p = 0.0001), and had less-progressed disease at presentation (p = 0.016) ...
Systemic chemotherapy has the ability to reduce the extent of tumor expansion that has been pathologically identified. Primary and secondary enucleated eyes are comparable in low metastatic risk only ...
Sympathetic ophthalmia (SO) is known to occur after severe penetrating eye injury, evisceration and even enucleation surgery. Recent evidence suggests that a greater risk lies after multiple vitreoret...
Techniques used to suture the rectus muscle to the implant can influence the implant-related complications which is still a major problem following retinoblastoma enucleation. The goals of this work w...
