[Management of periorbital and orbital infections].

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Infections of the orbit and of the periorbital region are not uncommon. Even today they constitute a serious problem, in spite of modern antibiotic treatment, with a potential risk of lethal complications. Orbital infections are most prevalent in children and adolescents. The acute orbit has many causes, but the most frequent is an occurrence secondary to acute rhinosinusitis. PATIENTS AND METHODS:Based on clinical cases, different causes and the present state of diagnosis are presented. The discussion deals with therapeutic strategies depending on the stage according to the current classification of orbital inflammation. CONCLUSIONS:Orbital and periorbital inflammations represent a demanding challenge for interdisciplinary cooperation between ophthalmologists, ENT specialists and radiologists. In some cases maxillofacial surgeons and neurosurgeons have to be included as well. Accurate diagnosis and treatment may lead to the resolution of the infection and avoid ocular sequel or endocranial complications as well as a fatal outcome.

  • The Distribution of Retinal Venous Pressure and Intraocular Pressure Differs Significantly in Patients with Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma.

    abstract:INTRODUCTION:Until now, venous pressure within the eye has widely been equated with intraocular pressure (IOP). Measurements with dynamometers calibrated in instrument units or in force showed that the retinal venous pressure (RVP) may be higher than the IOP in glaucoma patients. In this study, the RVP was measured wit...
