“…Benign lesions (87%) were far more common than malignant ones (10.8%) in accordance with previous studies worldwide that ranged from 71-91%. 7,9,20,22 Bastola et al 23 from Nepal, conducted a multicenter study which showed 78.9% and is comparable to our study. In contrast, Lavaju et al 24 evaluated eyelid lesions in a tertiary hospital located in the Eastern region of Nepal and found a lower frequency of 42.8% for benign eyelid lesions.…”

Background: Eyelid pathologies are the most common surgical specimens encountered among all of the ophthalmic lesions and constitute a wide range of diseases by their unique histologic features. This study aims to find out the histopathological spectrum of eyelid lesions, their demographic distribution, and preferential location prevalent in our community.Materials and Methods: This is an observational study in which we retrospectively evaluated the data of 692 patients retrieved from the histopathology department of National Reference Laboratory, Kathmandu, from May 2016 to April 2019.Results: A total of 701 histologic diagnoses comprised of benign, precursor, and malignant lesions and accounted for 86.6%, 2.6%, and 10.8% respectively with preponderance in females. The common benign lesions included melanocytic nevus (17.7%), epidermal cyst (11%), hemangioma (8.9%), dermoid cyst (8.2%), chalazion (6.7%), and squamous papilloma (6.4%). Tumour of epidermal origin was the most common neoplastic lesion accounting for 31.2%. Basal cell carcinoma (50%) followed by sebaceous carcinoma (27.6%) and squamous cell carcinoma (14.5%) constituted the majority of malignant lesions prevalent above the age of 60 years with the preferential site of the upper eyelid for basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma; and lower eyelid for sebaceous carcinoma.Conclusions: Benign eyelid lesions are more prevalent than malignant ones with overall female preponderance. Epidermal tumours are common among neoplasms. A malignant tumour, a disease of an elderly individual, is predominated by basal cell carcinoma followed by sebaceous carcinoma, an aggressive tumour with a high recurrence rate in our population.

“…We found melanocytic nevus (17.7%) as the most common benign histologic diagnosis followed by an epidermal cyst, haemangioma, dermoid cyst, chalazion, and squamous papilloma. It is also reported as the most common benign eyelid lesion in the studies from Taiwan 22 , Hongkong 25 , South Korea 26 , and Latin America 20 .…”

Eye lid lesions can have important esthetic complications, block vision and change the normal shape and function of the eyelid. Purpose: To evaluate the pattern of eye lid lesions in the oculoplastic clinic of this centre in order to estimate the hidden masquerading lesions that may require appropriate interventions. Materials and Methods: The clinic and theatre records of all patients that had eye lid disorders from January 2015-July 2017 were retrieved to obtain demographic characteristics, duration of symptoms, presenting visual acuity, eyelid lesions and histo-pathological diagnosis. Data obtained was analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 20. Results: A total of 124 patients with eye lid disorders were seen. This constituted 8.3% of all new cases seen in the oculoplastic clinic of the hospital. There were 64 (51.6%) males and 60 (48.4%) females with a male to female ratio of 1.1:1.0. A total of 63 (50.8%) of the patients with eye lid disorder had infective/inflammatory lesions while 22 (17.7%) of the patients had traumatic eye lid disorders. The proportion of eye lid disorders was significantly higher in males less than 40 years. Late presentation of eye lid disorders was higher in females. More than 3/5 th of the patients 82(66.1%) had one form of surgical procedures. Conclusion: The incidence of eyelid disorders is relatively high with infective/inflammatory causes as the commonest presentation in young male patients. Early presentation and accurate clinical and histopathological diagnosis with appropriate interventions will prevent both esthetic complications and loss of life from misdiagnosed potential malignant eyelid disorders.

“…The tumour is rare in Latin American, Western and Nordic countries, i.e. the estimated annual incidence is 0.41 per million population in UK, but more common in Asian countries [1][2][3][4]. The median age of patients is 70 to 72 years [1,5].…”

Nordic treatment practices survey and consensus for treatment of eyelid sebaceous carcinoma

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background: The purpose was to describe the Nordic treatment practices and to reach a Nordic consensus for the treatment of sebaceous eyelid carcinoma. Methods: The treatment practices data was collected by a questionnaire with 37 questions to the Nordic oculoplastic surgeons and analyzed. A PubMed MEDLINE database search was done to gather data on the published treatment practices and recommendations. A working group that consisted of in minimum one senior consultant from each leading Nordic University Eye Hospital was assigned. A structured interactive method was used to establish the consensus. Results: Twenty-four doctors responded to the questionnaire. 23/24 (96%) of the respondents took a biopsy before surgery. Regional lymph node scanning was routinely done by 14/23 (61%) and a systemic screening of a metastatic disease by 13/23 (57%). 6/22 (27%) never took conjunctival mapping biopsies and 12/23 (52%) never screened for Muir-Torre. Respondents used Mohs surgery, frozen section or multi-stage excision with delayed closure, and 5-6 mm was the mostly preferred margin. Sentinel lymph node biopsy was a possible option for 9/22 (41%) and cryotherapy and Mitomycin C for 6/22 (27%) respondents. 50% of respondents considered radiation as a treatment option. 15/16 (94%) respondents always followed-up their patients, most for 5 years. Two thirds scanned regional lymph nodes during the follow-up. Consensus was reached for 18 statements representing three domains: preoperative work-up, treatment and follow-up. Conclusion: Treatment practices differ in between the five Nordic countries which have similar public health care systems. In the article the authors present a Nordic consensus for the treatment of eyelid sebaceous carcinoma.
