Easier lateral orbitotomy approach for excision of lacrimal gland tumour
Journal Title: IP International Journal of Ocular Oncology and Oculoplasty - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Tumours of the lacrymal gland are relatively rare Pleomorphic adenomas present with painless unilateral progressive proptosis with downward and inward displacement of the globe Surgical excision through the lateral orbitotomy is the commonest approach It can be further simplified by removal of lateral wall with chisel instead of saw and replacing it back without any sutures or screws Keywords Lacrymal gland tumour Lateral orbitotomy Pleomorphic adenoma
