METHODS: This was a prospective study involving 23 eyelids of 15 patients with cicatricial ectropion, randomly divided into two groups: G1 (13 eyelids) with four applications of 4ml of SF (Sodium Chloride 0.9%, Equiplex, Goiás , Brazil), associated to 1ml of lidocaine hydrochloride 2% without vasoconstrictor (Xylestesin®, Cristália, São Paulo, Brazil), with a one-week interval between applications; and G2 (10 eyelids) which received single application of 1 ml of AH (Restylane® Lidocaine, Q med, Uppsala, Sweden). Demographic variables, complaints, ectropion degree, eyelid flaccidity degree, ectropion location, and quantitative assessments using the systematized photodocumentation of patients eyelids 30 days after the first application in G1 and 7 and 30 days after applications in G2 were studied. The images were transferred to a computer and evaluated using the Image J program and the distance between the lower eyelid margin to corneal reflex (DMR2), limbus margin distance (LM), internal angle (IA) and external angle (EA), total (TA), lateral (LA) and medial areas (MA) were analyzed. The area measurements were delimited by a line between the two commissures and along the lid margin of the lower eyelid. The evaluations were done without traction and with traction downward of the lo... (Complete abstract click electronic access below) / Mestre

As imagens obtidas foram transferidas para um computador e avaliadas utilizando-se o programa Image J, avaliando-se a distância da pálpebra inferior até o reflexo corneano (DMR2), distância limbo-margem (LM), ângulo da comissura interna (AI) e externa (AE), área total (AT), lateral (AL) e medial (AM). As áreas a serem avaliadas foram delimitadas por uma linha que une as duas comissuras e outra linha que coincide com a margem da pálpebra inferior. As avaliações foram feitas sem tração e com tração da pálpebra inferior para baixo. Todos os dados foram transferidos para a planilha Excel, sendo realizada a análise comparativa antes e após as aplicações nos dois grupos. RESULTADOS: Os grupos foram semelhantes quanto a idade, sexo, cor da pele e grau do ectrópio. Houve melhora signficativa dos sintomas nos indivíduos de G2 após a aplicação de AH. Apos a injeção, o G1 apresentou redução significativa de AI com e sem tração, AE com tração, LM sem tração e AM com tração. No G2, após as injeções as medidas AI sem tração, AE, DMR2, AT e AM com e sem tração, LM e AL com tração apresentaram alterações significativas (p<0,05). A comparação das medidas realizadas no G2 após sete e 30 dias mostrou estabilidade dos resultados obtidos com a injeção de AH. CONCLUSÃO: A aplicação de AH na pálpebra inferior de portadores de ectrópio cicatricial mostrou melhora parcial do mal posicionamento palpebral. A aplicação de SF não foi efetiva no tratamento do ectrópio cicatricial. / PURPOSE: Evaluate the efficiency of injection of hyaluronic acid (HA) or saline solution (SF) applied to the lower eyelid subcutaneous, aiming at the non-surgical correction of cicatricial ectropion.

Demographic variables, complaints, ectropion degree, eyelid flaccidity degree, ectropion location, and quantitative assessments using the systematized photodocumentation of patients eyelids 30 days after the first application in G1 and 7 and 30 days after applications in G2 were studied. The images were transferred to a computer and evaluated using the Image J program and the distance between the lower eyelid margin to corneal reflex (DMR2), limbus margin distance (LM), internal angle (IA) and external angle (EA), total (TA), lateral (LA) and medial areas (MA) were analyzed. The area measurements were delimited by a line between the two commissures and along the lid margin of the lower eyelid. The evaluations were done without traction and with traction downward of the lower eyelid. All data were transferred to the Excel spreadsheet and comparative analysis was performed before and after the applications in the two groups. RESULTS The groups were similar according to age, sex, skin color and degree of ectropion. There was a significant improvement in G2 individuals after the application of AH. After injections G1 presented a significant reduction of AI with and without traction, EA with traction, LM without traction and AM with traction. The G2 after injections showed AI measurements without traction, EA, DMR2, TA and MA with and without traction, LM and LA with traction with significant alterations (p <0.05). The comparison of the G2 measurements obtained after 7 and 30 days showed stability of the results obtained with the AH injection. CONCLUSION: The application of AH in the lower eyelid of patients with cicatricial ectropion resulted in partial improvement of palpebral malposition. The application of SF was not effective in the treatment of cicatricial ectropion.

BACKGROUND: Skin cancer is the most common malignant neoplasm, with more than 5.4 million cases diagnosed annually in the United States. Treatment varies based on the type of neoplasm, its location, as well as primary vs. recurrent lesions. Nonetheless, surgical treatment remains the gold standard. Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) is a commonly used surgical technique in the excision of such neoplasms. The technique of MMS allows for the precise removal of skin cancers while offering the highest cure rates with maximal preservation of surrounding tissue. Repairs of MMS defects are often done the same day if performed by the resecting Mohs surgeon. However, for more complicated reconstructive procedures, repairs are often performed by a separate reconstructive surgeon. When this occurs, MMS repairs may be delayed and performed on a different day due to a variety of factors such as surgical scheduling conflicts and patient tolerance. Researchers are urgently trying to explore the implications and postoperative complications of delayed MMS as compared to same day MMS. OBJECTIVE: This study compares same-day vs. next day eyelid reconstruction following MMS with attention to postoperative complications. Our aim is to investigate whether or not a delay in closure is associated with an increase in postoperative complications. METHODS: We performed a retrospective chart review of patients who underwent eyelid reconstruction following MMS from January 2008 to December 2018, by a single private practice oculoplastic surgeon. The timing of each patient’s reconstruction along with age, sex, comorbidities, such as diabetes, current smoking status, previous radiation therapy, anticoagulation treatment, and occurrence of postoperative complications were recorded. The specific location of the defect was recorded as well. The timing of reconstruction was classified as same-day or next-day reconstruction. No reconstructions took place more than 48 hours after tumor excision. The complications included in our analysis were: hematoma, wound infection, flap necrosis, dehiscence, and ectropion. Statistical significance was determined by Pearson’s chi-squared analysis. RESULTS: A total of 485 procedures were performed on 390 patients. 334 (69%) of those procedures were same-day reconstructions, while 151 (31%) of those procedures were next-day reconstructions. 19 (5.7%) of the 334 same-day reconstructions and 9 (5.9%) of the 151 next-day reconstructions were associated with complications (p=0.905). Therefore, a total of 28 (5.8%) procedures were associated with complications. More women (54%) than men (46%) underwent reconstruction. Multivariate logistic regression showed that males had a 1.274-fold higher risk of developing complication post reconstruction. Current smokers had a 1.054-fold higher risk of developing complications post reconstruction. CONCLUSIONS: There is no statistically significant difference in the postoperative complication rate when comparing same-day vs. next-day eyelid reconstruction following Mohs micrographic surgery.
