<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> To describe our experience in performing biopsy of post-septal orbital masses with core needle under computerized tomography guidance (CT-CNB). <b><i>Methods:</i></b> The medical records of all patients who underwent this procedure were reviewed. The procedure was performed under local anesthesia on a day case basis under a peribulbar block. A planning non-contrast computerized tomography (CT) scan of the orbits was performed to localise the mass. A 6-cm 18-G Temno Evolution® semi-automated biopsy needle was inserted through the skin into the orbit. Prior to further advancement of the needle, a low-dose CT limited to the previously determined plane was performed to confirm its position. The needle was then advanced, and the cutting needle was deployed to obtain the biopsy. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Five patients who underwent CT-CNB were identified. The CNB was successful in 4 patients and revealed a metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, a metastatic neuroendocrine tumour, and orbital inflammatory disease. The biopsy failed in the fifth patient when the needle failed to penetrate the tumour despite good localisation on CT. He was eventually diagnosed with fibrous meningioma of the greater wing of sphenoid on open biopsy. None of the patients had any complications other than peri-ocular bruising which was present in all of them. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> CT-CNB of mass lesions located in the lateral aspect of the orbit can be an alternative to open biopsy in selected cases. It avoids major surgery and allows the use of radiotherapy, if required, without any delay.

Comparing General Anesthesia with Preemptive IV Atropine vs General Anesthesia with Single Injection Peribulbar Block with Levobupivacaine 0.5% or Lidocaine 2% for Prevention of Oculocardiac Reflex in Children Undergoing Strabismus Surgery: Randomized Control Study

Clinically Significant

Abstract Background Strabismus is one of the common health problems among the children. The incidence of the oculocardiac reflex decreases with age and tends to be more pronounced in young, healthy patients, which is clinically significant for pediatric as it is observed with greatest incidence in young healthy neonates and infants undergoing strabismus surgery. Objective to prevent and attenuate the oculocardiac reflex in children age group from (2yrs to 14 yrs) undergoing surgical correction for strabismus. Patients and Methods Three groups were allocated Group C received general anaesthesia combined with pre emptive atropine, Group L received general anaesthesia combined with Peribulbar block with Lidocaine 2 % and Group LB which received general anaesthesia combined with peribulbar block with Levobupivacaine 0.5%. Results In Our study we found that group L which received peribulbar lidocaine 2 % was the most successful group regarding blocking the occurrence of the OCR and with acceptable post operative pain control results. Conclusion In Our study the use of peribulbar block with lidocaine 2 % in combinations with General anaesthesia is very effective against the incidence of OCR in children undergoing strabismus surgery and superior to the Iv pre emptive Atropine with higher surgeon satisfaction while the use of peribulbar levobupivacaine 0.5% combined with general anaesthesia has a great role in post operative pain control with superior patient satisfaction, on the other hand the atropine is a very important emergency drug but our study found that it has a very minor role in both preventing the OCR and post operative pain control in addition to subjecting the patients to the tachycardia and other complications like dryness of the mouth and blushing so its not recommended by our study.

Symptoms And Signs

ABSTRACT Cataract surgery is performed routinely under regional orbital blocks including retrobulbar and peribulbar blocks. Several complications have been reported while performing these blocks, the most significant of which is the local anesthetic systemic toxicity (LAST). The symptoms and signs present in a varied spectrum, but every such case requires early recognition and immediate resuscitation to avoid long-term morbidity and even death. Lipid emulsion therapy forms the mainstay of treatment. We present a case of a 49-year-old man who planned to undergo cataract surgery under the peribulbar block, who developed LAST and was successfully treated with 20% lipid emulsion without any adverse sequelae.
