Balanced (endoscopic medial and transcutaneous lateral) orbital decompression in Graves’ orbitopathy

Abstract: These results suggest that endoscopic medial wall combined with transcutaneous lateral wall orbital decompression is an effective and safe treatment for the symptomatic dysthyroid eye disease with important proptosis or compressive optic neuropathy.

“…Various things are reported in the paper on periorbita incision. The method of removing the orbital wall and then completely removing the periorbita [4,21], the method of 'The orbital sling procedure' to keep some periorbita on the medial rectus muscle intact [22], and the method of making a parallel incision of the periorbita from the posterior to the anterior is being reported [23,24]. If you perform the method of completely removing periorbita and the method of orbital sling procedure, periorbita does not protect the edge of the removed orbital wall and can cause damage to the EOM.…”

“…However, conflicting reports have also emerged. For example, there have been many analyses suggesting utility of “balanced” decompression and even 3‐wall decompression techniques, with experienced surgeons reporting a low complication rate . Furthermore, in a 2012 study, Rocchi et al reported a significantly higher incidence of postoperative primary gaze diplopia for combined medial endoscopic and lateral external decompression vs lateral wall decompression for patients with Grave's orbitopathy .…”
