Posttraumatic herniation of brain and CSF into the eyelid, variously termed as blepharocele, blepharoencephalocele, or encephalocele, is not a common entity, with only a few reported cases in the literature. A 4-year-old girl was seen for gradually increasing left upper eyelid swelling after she had sustained a head injury due to a fall from height. A few days later she developed swelling of the upper eyelid. Posttraumatic CSF blepharocele was suspected. The patient underwent surgery with excellent cosmetic outcome. This case is discussed with a review of literature.

Underlying Diseases

Cutis verticis gyrata (CVG) is an unusual morphological condition of the scalp characterized by ridges and furrows resembling the surface of the brain. Most patients have lesions on the scalp, and only a few cases with forehead lesions have been described in literature. We report an extremely rare case of secondary CVG on the forehead. A 61-year-old female patient was referred to our outpatient clinic with a large area of hypertrophic skin on the forehead. A lesion measuring 12×3 cm extended across both eyebrows, the glabella, and the forehead. The patient reported that a pruritic erythematous lesion in that region had occurred 10 years ago after she performed acupuncture on herself on the forehead several times. She had no underlying diseases and no relevant family history. We removed the entire lesion and covered the defect with a forehead advancement flap. This solved the initial aesthetic problem. Her forehead skin became flattened, and the sagging upper eyelid skin was aesthetically corrected. Pathological findings showed nodular lesions with dense collagen fibers and microvascular proliferation, supporting the diagnosis of CVG. We achieved good results through surgical treatment for the extremely rare case of CVG on the forehead.

ABSTRACT Invasive mycotic infections can be effectively treated if rapid identification of fungus is obtained. We reported a case of coinfection by Aspergillus and Rhizopus sp. involving nose, paranasal sinuses and orbit in a 51 years old male patient diagnosed as diabetic on admission. He presented to ENT OPD with history of drooping of right upper eyelid, decreased vision right eye and deviation of angle of mouth to left side for 12 days. NCCT nose, PNS and orbit showed soft tissue density in right maxillary sinus, ethmoids and destruction of right inferior turbinate. MRI of nose, PNS and orbit revealed hypointense density in right maxillary and ethmoid sinuses on T1-weighted images and on T2-weighted; it was hyperintense. Patient underwent endoscopic debridement under general anesthesia and tissue was sent for microbiological and histopathological examination which confirmed presence of Aspergillus and Rhizopus. Patient responded to therapy with IV amphotericin B and surgical debridement. On discharge patient's condition was good. How to cite this article Gupta R, Gupta B, Bal A, Gupta AK.

Slow Growing

Meibomian gland carcinoma (MGC) is a rare but highly malignant slow growing tumor of the eyelid. MGC usually arises from meibomian gland located in the tarsal plate although rarely it can originates in the gland of zeis, sebaceous gland of caruncle, and periocular skin. MGC is more common in cases of elderly females. Upper eyelid is more commonly affected where the meibomian glands are more. Early diagnosis is very important but in most of the cases the diagnosis is delayed as it mimics chalazion or blepharo-conjunctivitis. This leads to inappropriate treatment and increase in morbidity and/or mortality. Special feature of this carcinoma is that it spread intra-epithelial and causes skipped lesions.

Purpose: To report a rare case of eyelid lipoma. Case summary: A 41-year-old female presented with a palpable mass in her left upper eyelid. Diffuse hard mass was palpable at preaponeurotic fat layer of left upper eyelid, and there was no inflammatory sign. Under local anesthesia, a left upper eyelid mass partial excision was performed and a biopsy specimen was collected. The mass was yellower and harder than surrounding normal eyelid fat. A lipoma was diagnosed based on histopathological findings such as proliferation of mature adipocytes. Conclusions: Lipoma is a benign tumor commonly found around trunk and limbs, but rarely occurs at eyelid. Eyelid lipoma should be considered as a differential diagnosis of diffuse mass at eyelid fat layer. Diagnosis and treatment can be achieved by partial excision and histopathological examination.

Eyelid Swelling

A rare case of palpebral cellulitis with simultaneous frontal sinusitis and osteomyelitis is reported. A healthy 45-year-old man presented with left upper eyelid swelling. He was given intravenous meropenem at the local hospital, but he failed to improve. Magnetic resonance imaging showed left frontal and maxillary sinusitis and upper palpebral cellulitis with an abscess. His temperature was 37.6°C, C-reactive protein was 1.36 mg/dL, thyroid hormone was elevated, left best-corrected visual activity was 1.2, and intraocular pressure was 25 mm Hg. He was then given cefazolin intravenously for 3 days but with no improvement. Therefore, the eyelid skin was incised. Postoperatively, the swelling improved significantly. Computed tomography demonstrated osteomyelitis of the left frontal sinus and osteolysis of the inferior wall. This case was considered a variation of Pott’s puffy tumor. Bacterial cultures from the cellulitis abscess and sinusitis were negative. As for sinusitis, endoscopic sinusitis surgery (frontal sinus single sinus surgery [Draf III] and Kilian surgery) was performed. During 10 months of follow-up after the skin incision, no signs of recurrent eyelid swelling were observed.

Rare Association

Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disease that may affect various organs. Nevertheless, involvement of the trigeminal nerve is exceedingly uncommon. This report presents a rare case of isolated bilateral trigeminal neuropathy presenting with neurotrophic corneal ulcers. The patient was treated with topical chloramphenicol and lubricants, as well as botulinum toxin injection to the upper eyelid to induce ptosis. Our case illustrates the importance of recognizing that bilateral corneal ulceration might be a manifestation of sarcoidosis. Physicians should be aware of this rare association, when treating sarcoidosis patients with eye related symptoms.
