“…The most common indication for exenteration in our study was retinoblastoma (32.1%), and this was discordant with other literature findings (3 4, 8, 9) which reported that eyelid tumor was the most common etiology responsible for exenteration. This could be due to the distribution of patient age group in our study, consisting equal number of children and adults with high occurrence of retinoblastoma responsible for exenteration in childhood.…”

“…In literature review, the common indications for exenteration were found to be eyelid malignancy and orbital tumor (2,3,4,7). According to geographical locations, reports on common etiologies requiring exenteration variy Rahman et al (3), Wong et al (8) from the United Kingdom and Duman et al (4) from Turkey reported basal cell carcinoma as theleading pathology requiring exenterationwhereas Nemet et al from Australia reported Squamous cell carcinomaas as the most common cause (5).…”

Overall presenting duration of eye morbidity was 18 months (2 months-8.5 years). The most common presenting complaint was protrusion of eyeball1, 4(50%), primary site of tumor being intraocular in 10 patients (35.7%,) and total orbital exenteration was the most commonly performed type of surgery in 16(57.1%) out of 27 patients. The most common etiology responsible for orbital exenteration, in pediatric age group of 9/27 patients (64.2%), was retinoblastoma whereas conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)accounts for 5 patients (38.4%) in adults. Overall, the most common cause of orbital exenteration was retinoblastoma 9(32.1%). CONCLUSION: The most common etiologies requiring orbital exenteration were retinoblastoma (in children and overall) and conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma (in adults), both diseases that could be addressed with less invasive treatment modality if detected earlier in the disease process. Designing strategy is important for early detection and treatment of these conditions, which would decrease disease morbidity and prognosis, potentially sparing sight and life.

“…The average age of patients in our study was 75.69 years. The average age of patients in other studies also refers the elderly population ranging from 60 to 77 years and these results correlate with our data [1,9,11,12,[14][15][16]18]. Primary tumor sites in our study are medial cantus (50%) and lower lid (34.62%).…”

Background/aim: Orbital exenteration is one of the most disfiguring procedures leading to significant deformity. Defect reconstruction is challenging, especially in elderly patients. We have reviewed our experience of orbital exenteration and primary reconstruction with lateral frontal galeal-cutaneous flap based on superficial temporal artery. Materials and methods: Data on patients treated for non-melanoma skin cancer invading the orbit during the 10-year period were analyzed. Patients' demographics, tumor features, reconstructive technique used, complications and survival were recorded with a median follow-up of 27.5 months. Results: 26 patients in whom orbital exenteration was done were included in the study. There were 14 males and 12 females, mean aged 75.29 years (ranged 61-87). The majority of patients were treated for basal cell carcinoma with medial cantus as primary site. All defects were closed by lateral frontal galeal-cutaneous flap based on superficial temporal artery, and in two cases temporalis muscle pedicle flap was used as additional flap for reconstruction of orbital roof in order to separate the brain from empty orbit, and covered with same galeal-cutaneous flap. In 19 cases frontal area was closed primarily, and in 7 cases skin graft was used for secondary defect. There was no flap loss. Tumor related death was registered in three patients (inoperable recurrent tumors) (11.5%), 7 died as tumor unrelated (2 of them were operated from recurrent orbital tumor) and 16 survived. Conclusion: The preferred method for reconstruction after orbital exenteration in our university affiliated center is lateral frontal galeal-cutaneous flap based on superficial 2 temporal artery. The flap harvesting is simple, safe and obtains enough tissue for covering defects even after extended exenteration. Complication rate is low. We suggest the simultaneous use of this flap with pedicle temporalis muscle flap only for reconstruction of scull base after anterior cranial fossa resection.
