Disease relevance of Enophthalmos

 

High impact information on Enophthalmos

  • Further, dysgenesis of the Pitx2(-)(/)(-) extraocular muscle and thickening of the mesothelial layer of cornea were observed in the ocular system where Pitx2 is expressed symmetrically, and these resulted in enophthalmos [5].
  • BACKGROUND: Progressive bilateral enophthalmos in the absence of previous trauma is rare [6].
  • It is concluded that satisfactory correction of enophthalmos and ocular dystopia can be achieved with elective surgery using titanium plates [7].
  • We studied 21 consecutive patients with this disorder and found that the incidence of severe retraction on adduction, the occurrence of enophthalmos in the primary position and the presence of upshoots and downshoots were significantly higher in adults with type I DRS than in children [8].
  • Predisposing factors were not experimentally verified, but associated conditions included axial myopia, multiple injections, traditional superonasal gaze position, previous retinal buckling procedure, and enophthalmos [9].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Enophthalmos

  • Late posttraumatic enophthalmos corrected by dense hydroxylapatite blocks [10].
  • Vicryl mesh should be considered an alternative to both nonautogenous implants and autogenous grafts in orbital floor fracture repair especially for correction of mild and possibly moderate degrees of enophthalmos and hypo-ophthalmos [11].
  • Use of Vicryl (polyglactin-910) mesh implant for correcting enophthalmos and hypo-ophthalmos. A study of 16 patients [11].
  • In addition, enophthalmos was unmasked in the ST treatment group within 1 week of treatment versus 5 months without treatment [12].
  • The advantages of the technique presented are that a complete exposure of the zygomatic bone is no longer necessary, and coronal and subciliary incisions may be avoided unless enophthalmos correction has to be carried out, which was in fact necessary in 2 patients [13].
 

Gene context of Enophthalmos

  • Facial signs including soft tissue atrophy, enophthalmos, pupillary dialation with decreased pupillary reaction, and extraocular muscle involvement later appeared on the same side as the eye with the arrested myopia [14].
  • Clinical examination revealed mainly dysfunction of facial morphology and aesthetics (enophthalmos, telecanthus), CSF leakage, impairment of vision and restricted eyeball movements [15].
  • Restoration of enophthalmos in anophthalmic socket by HTR polymer [16].
  • Also ex- or enophthalmos, registered in seven patients of the PDS and four of the TD group (mainly + /- 1 mm) were not considered as relevant by the patients [17].
