This study aims to report a case of primary orbital liposarcoma which presented as caruncle mass. A 45-year-old woman presented to our hospital to evaluate the bumpiness of the caruncle in her left eye. A yellowish nodule , which was firmly attached to the sclera , was seen in the caruncle area and seemed to extend into the orbit. Incisional biopsy revealed myxoid liposarcoma She denied further evaluation and came back with enlarged mass after one year. She underwent lid-sparing exentration and was free of recurrence for 5 years.
Introduction: In this study, we systematically reviewed the literature to determine whether or not there was a correlation between lens density as measured by the Pentacam Scheimpflug System and grading score as determined by the Lens Opacities Classification System (LOCS) III in patients with age-related nuclear cataract.
Methods: From 1990 to 2022, a systematic search was conducted in Medline (Ovid, PubMed), Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, ProQuest, and The Cochrane Library. Meta-analysis was performed for all observational studies that met the inclusion criteria. To assess the quality of cross-sectional and prospective studies, the JBI Checklist was used. To calculate the effect size for nuclear color (NC) and nuclear opalescence (NO), we used R programming software. In addition, we used Influence analysis to identify outliers and created forest plots with and without the detected outliers.
Results: Among eight studies included in this systematic review, 965 patients with 1102 eyes were assessed with a mean age of 66.23 old years. The nuclear color and density were assessed in 4 and 6 studies, respectively. The odds ratio (OR) of the effect size was 0.72 with a 95% confidence interval (0.68, 0.76) for nuclear color, and the OR of the effect size was 0.94 with a 95% confidence interval (0.94, 0.95) for nuclear density both statistically significant.
Conclusion: The Pentacam technique allowed for quantitative cataract grading and may aid in phacodynamics prediction during cataract surgery. The method is useful for detecting cataracts in patients and has broad potential in the field of health examination.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
