Histopathological examination of the enucleated left eyeball demonstrated that extremely thin sclera adjacent to the corneal limbus resulted in anterior staphyloma, and ectopic osteocartilaginous tissues were present in the posterior sclera.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Within 1 year of follow-up the patient presented a partial staphyloma reduction, 9x9x2.5 mm, and the patch detached from the lesion. A novel surgical approach was done reducing the corneal patch and no recurrence was seen after 9 months.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A 14-year-old boy who used to swim in ponds, presented with a swelling under the left upper eye lid with drooping of the lid an defective vision in that eye. Scleral staphyloma of size 10x8mm was seen close to limbus.[eyetube.net]

Treatment was conducted by conjunctival resection and tectonic corneoscleral graft (13x13mm) over the staphyloma. Within 1 year of follow-up the patient presented a partial staphyloma reduction, 9x9x2.5 mm, and the patch detached from the lesion.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
