  • Fishing

    Surgical method: On the epicanthus, a small, triangular “fish-tail” flap that was 2 mm wide was designed and was located adjacent to a “fish-body” marking on the subciliary lower eyelid. [dovepress.com]

    Surgical Method: On the epiblepharon, about 2mm-wide small triangle shape fish-tail flap was designed continuously fish-body marking on subciliary lower eyelid. After incision, Hotz procedure was done and skin flap was sutured edge to edge. [omicsonline.org]

  • Weight Gain

    The pregnancy was complicated by a greater than 20 lb. weight gain, which was treated with diuretics. The mother was hospitalized in the third month because of a brown vaginal discharge which ceased spontaneously with bedrest. [healio.com]

  • Multiple Congenital Anomalies

    The classification of PCUEE as a syndrome with multiple congenital anomalies is supported, and the need for a complete systemic evaluation is stressed. Congenital primary upper eyelid entropion is an exceedingly rare condition. [healio.com]

  • Failure to Thrive

    aged three and one-half months, was admitted to Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, because of a failure to thrive. This was the fourth pregnancy, separated by nine years from the third, for a white female, aged 39. [healio.com]

  • Ejection Murmur

    There was a grade 3/6 systolic ejection murmur at the mid to lower left sternal border. An electrocardiogram showed evidence of severe left axis deviation and right ventricular hypertrophy. [healio.com]

  • Cardiomegaly

    Cardiac evaluation revealed a mild ventriculo-septal defect and cardiomegaly. [healio.com]

  • Low Set Ears

    Neonatal exam revealed a dysmorphic facies with antimongoloid slanting of the palpebral fissures, low-set ears which appeared dysplastie with underdeveloped pinnae, micrognathia, and long thin feet with rocker bottoms. [healio.com]

  • Flexion Contracture

    Orthopedic consultation revealed bilateral mild knee flexion contractures and bilateral calcaneal valgus feet. Repeat CT scan indicated evidence of cerebral atrophy, and EEG showed progressive deterioration. [healio.com]

  • Antimongoloid Slant

    Neonatal exam revealed a dysmorphic facies with antimongoloid slanting of the palpebral fissures, low-set ears which appeared dysplastie with underdeveloped pinnae, micrognathia, and long thin feet with rocker bottoms. [healio.com]

  • Vaginal Discharge

    The mother was hospitalized in the third month because of a brown vaginal discharge which ceased spontaneously with bedrest. Following a three hour labor, under general anesthesia, a 7 lb. 4 oz. boy was delivered by cephalic presentation. [healio.com]

  • Hyperactivity

    The physical examination revealed an irritable, tense, crying infant who was hyperactive to noise and movements. He neither smiled, cooed, nor had a good sustained sucking reflex. [healio.com]

Methods: : Patients with congenital eyelid anomalies presented during one year period (Dec 2006 - Nov 2007) with complete clinical workup were included. Karyotyping from blood was done in all the patients. [iovs.arvojournals.org]

  • Left Axis Deviation

    An electrocardiogram showed evidence of severe left axis deviation and right ventricular hypertrophy. These findings led to a diagnosis of endocardial cushion defect with pulmonary hypertension. [healio.com]

  • Ventricular Hypertrophy

    An electrocardiogram showed evidence of severe left axis deviation and right ventricular hypertrophy. These findings led to a diagnosis of endocardial cushion defect with pulmonary hypertension. [healio.com]

Surgical treatment included anastomosis of the capsulopalpebral fascia, tarsal border, and eyelid skin crease; no skin or muscle was removed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The treatment of epiblepharon depends on the presence of corneal damage caused by lashes scratching the cornea. The treatment of congenital entropion is surgical. Surgery can be delayed as long as the corneal findings are not severe. [neweyelids.com]

Expectations (prognosis) The outlook is usually good if the condition is treated before cornea damage occurs. [pittsburgheyeassociates.com]

Prognosis : good. Presenting signs Epiphora Eye: epiphora. Mucopurulent ocular discharge Eye: ocular discharge - overview when concurrent ocular infection is present. Periocular crusting associated with ocular discharge. Periocular irritation. [vetstream.com]

If inflammation or infection are not controlled, the prognosis is worse, higher risk of complications, and can often progress. [statpearls.com]

This finding refutes the commonly accepted concept of orbicularis muscle hypertrophy as an etiologic mechanism of congenital entropion. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The simple surgical procedure described would probably be successful in most cases, assuming that pathophysiologic mechanism is correct. References 1. Hiles DA, Wilder LW: Congenital entropion of the upper lids. [healio.com]

The pathophysiology is related to a loss of supportive structures in the lower lid. With age, the medial and lateral canthal tendons develop some laxity. The lower eyelid retractors also become thin and attenuated. [csops.com]

Recurrences that present a year or more after surgery may be due to progression of underlying pathophysiology. [medtextfree.wordpress.com]
