Even though many two or three phased surgical procedures can be applied to these cases, satisfactory results can be achieved with levator surgery and excision of the thickened skin and the orbicular muscle as well. (Turk J Ophthalmol 2014; 44: 416-8)

Abstract

A 37-year-old male patient diagnosed with pachydermoperiostosis at another center came to our clinic to rectify his blepharoptosis. The physical examination of the patient revealed skeleton and skin symptoms typical for pachydermoperiostosis. There was thickening and extending horizontal length of the eyelids, an S-shaped deformity on the edges of the eyelids, and symmetric bilateral mechanical blepharoptosis. In order to treat the blepharoptosis, excision of the thickened skin and the orbicular muscle as well as levator aponeurosis surgery was performed. The esthetic result was satisfactory. Pachydermoperiostosis is a rare cause of blepharoptosis. Meibomius gland hyperplasia, increase of collagen substance in the dermis, mucin accumulation are reasons of thickening the eyelid and finally this causes the development of mecanical blepharoptosis. Even though many two or three phased surgical procedures can be applied to these cases, satisfactory results can be achieved with levator surgery and excision of the thickened skin and the orbicular muscle as well.

Özet

Başka bir merkezde pakidermoperiostozis tanısı konmuş 37 yaşındaki erkek hasta, bilateral blefaroptozisinin düzeltilmesi amacıyla kliniğimize başvurdu. Hastanın fizik muayenesinde pakidermoperiostozisin tipik bulguları olan iskelet ve cilt bulguları mevcuttu. Göz kapaklarında ise kalınlaşma, horizontal boyunda uzama, kapak kenarlarında S şeklinde deformite ve simetrik bilateral mekanik blefaroptozis vardı. Hastaya blefaroptozisi düzeltmek amacıyla kalınlaşmış cilt ve orbiküler kas eksizyonu ve levator aponevroz cerrahisi uygulandı. Estetik sonuç tatmin edici idi. Pakidermoperiostozis nadir görülen bir blefaroptozis nedenidir. Kapaklarda meibomian bez hiperplazisi, dermiste kollajen içeriğinin artması ve müsin birikimi nedeniyle kalınlaşma ve sonuçta mekanik bir blefaroptozis gelişir. Bu olgularda iki ya da üç basamaklı pek çok cerrahi işlem uygulanabileceği gibi levator cerrahisi ve kalınlaşmış cilt ve orbiküler kas eksizyonu ile de yüz güldürücü sonuca ulaşılabilir.
