This paper reported the use of superficial temporal vessels pedicled postauricular island flap for the reconstruction of eye socket. Six cases were treated by this method since 1988 with universal satisfactory results. The disign of the flap was diseribed. The operative procedure was detailed, and the advantages of the flap were evaluated: 1. The donor defect was hidden behind the ear; 2. The flap has a relatively long pedicle, hence easy for distant transfer, and 3. the blood supply was highly reliable.
efect of the eyebrow is a common facialdefect. It was resulted from a variety of causes,but the most common was burn. The operationby using free postauricular scalp graft to repairthe defect of eyebrow was intreduced. The var-ious metheds of eyebrow reconstruction werecompared. The treatment of 79 patients with thedefect of eyebrow was summarized. It was notedthat it had the following advantages , such as theoperation being simple and easy, a naturallooking, appropriate density and r...
Objective To explore the therapeutic value and effects of relaxing retinotomy for perforating traction retinal detachment(PTRD). Method A retrospective survey was done in 21 patinets (21 eyes) with PTRD who underwent vitrectomy combined with relaxing retinotomy in our hospital from 1998 to 2001.Results The retinae were completely reattached in all 21 cases. The visual acuity of 12 patients (57%) was counting finger, and the best visual acuity was 0.05. Among the 18 patients who were followed up for 6 to 25 months, 14(77.8%) remained retinal reattachment. Conclusions Relaxing retinotomy is effective for anatomic reattachment of PTRD, especially to the patients with retinal incarceration and severe proliferative vitreoretinopathy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between optic disc hemorrhage and localized retinal never fiber layer defects (RNFLDs) in norma l tension glaucoma.MethodsIn 83 patients with normal-tension glaucoma, the cumulative frequency and quadrantal distribution of optic disc hemorrhages were retrospectively analyzed. The neighboring relation between optic disc hemorrhages and RNFLDs in a same quadrant and the changes of correspondin gretinal never fiber layer (RNFL) after the occurrence of optic disc hemorrhages were observed by tridimensional photochromy of ocular fundus.Results(1) The occurrences and distribution of optic disc hemorrhages: 29of83(34.94%) patients (33 eyes) had totally 58 occurrences, including 39 in infer iotemporal area, 14 in superiotemporal area, and 5 in other area. (2) The relati onship of neighborhood between optic disc hemorrhages and RNFLDs: in the availab le tridimensional photochrome, 23 occurrences in 15 patients (16 eyes) were foun d with cuneiform RNFLDs in the same quadrant, in which 22 was near the border of cuneiform RNFLDs. (3) The changes of corresponding retinal never fiber layer (R NFL) after the occurrence of optic disc hemorrhages: the photochromes of 24 occurrences in 20 patients (21 eyes) were kept well in the initial and the 2-year follow-up periods, while the changes of RNFL were found in each region correspon ding to the 19 occurrences (in inferiotemporal or superiotemporal area) in the initial photochrome, including 7 cuneiform defects with various sizes, and 12 developed localized RNFLDs next to the initial hemorrhages in the optic disc. No obvious localized RNFL corresponding to the other 5 occurrences (1 in inferiotempo ral, 1 in superiotemporal, and 3 in other areas) were found in the follow up period.ConclusionOptic disc hemorrhages in normal-tension glaucoma occur mostly in inferiotemporal area, and secondly in superiotemporal area of optic disc, and the appearance of optic disc hemorrhages may suggest that the localized RNFLDS would develop in the associated regions.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis，2004，20：339-342)
Objective To observe the clinical features of congenital hypertrophy of retinal pigment epithelium （CHRPE）. Methods The clinical data of 13 CHRPE patients including visual acuity, slit-lamp microscope examination, indirect ophthalmoscope examination and fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) were retrospectively analyzed. The patients, 9 males and 4 females, with the mean age of 27.8 years. Results All patients were unilateral, without systemic diseases and no subjective symptoms in majority. Only 30.77% of initial diagnosis was correct, other diagnosis include choroidal nevi, old chorioretinopathy or no diagnosis. The round or oval black lesion was found in ocular fundus of all patients, 7.69% was located on the optic disk, 46.15% was located on the inferior temporal retina, 30.77% was located on the superior temporal retina, 15.39％ was located on the inferior nasal retina. 92.31％ was pigmented CHRPE and 7.69％ was non-pigmented CHRPE. FFA showed blocked fluorescence and transmitted fluorescence in the lesion, few eyes were found dilated capillary vessel and fluorescent leakage on the late stage of FFA, most eyes had normal retinal vessels. Conclusion The isolated CHRPE is round or oval black lesion in ocular fundus which lack of subjective symptoms, mostly located on the peripheral retina; the FFA characteristics showed blocked fluorescence and transmitted fluorescence, and CHRPE often misdiagnosed as other disease, it should be combine the ocular fundus manifestation with the FFA to diagnose properly.
Objective To study the factors affecting the prognosis of vitrectomy in mechanically injured eyes. Methods One hundred and thirty-Seven eyes undergone vitrectomy were in cluded.Recorded to EPIINFO data base were visual acuity (VA) immediately after injury,type and location of injury,the interval from injury to surgical intervention,retinal detachment,basic surgical maneuvers,proliferative vitreo-retinopathy (PVR),stage of trauma,complications,final VA,and final retinal status.Data were analyzed by SAS. Results We got anatomic success in 107 eyes (75.9%).Final VA of 74 eyes (54.1%) were better than 0.02.Multiple-variable analysis showed that the factors significantly affecting prognosis of vitrectomied eyes of mechanical injury were retinal detachment (RD) before surgery,delay of surgical intervention,complexity of surgical maneuvers,complications after surgery. Conclusions RD before surgery,delayed surgical intervention,complexity of surgery and post vitrectomy complications are the most important factors contributing to the poor prognosis of VA and failure of surgery.

Objective To establish a hemorrhagic retinal detachment (HRD) model for the study of the damage and treatment of HRD.Methods Fourteen rabbits (28 eyes) were divided into the HRD (12 eyes) and control (16 eyes) group randomly. Autologous anticoagulated blood (0.2 ml) was transvitreally injected into the rab bits′subretinal space with a special glass micropipette in HRD group （12 eyes ）; while 0.2 ml saline with or without heparin sodium （2.5 U/ml） was respectively injected into subretinal space respectively of the rabbits in heparin saline control group (6 eyes) and saline control group (3 eyes); furthermore, another 2 control groups, i.e.,pseudo injection group (3 eyes, single retinal puncturing without subretinal injection) and normal group (4 eyes of 2 normal rabbits) were also set. The conditions of the occurrence and representation of the retinal detachment (RD) were observed and analysed by means of ophthalmoscopy, optical coherence tomography (OCT) and ultrasound A and (or) B scan examinations in the subsequent 28 days after the operation.Results After the operation, HRD occurred in all eyes of the rabbits in HRD group. The area of HRD extended from 10 to 12 disc diameter(DD). The obvious elevation of RD maintained to 14 days, and the residual subretinal hemorrhage was still observed till 28 days. The obvious RD of the rabbits in hepar in saline and saline control group was only kept for no more than 12 hours. The retinal puncture hole in pseudo injection group disappeared 2 days after the operation, and there was no change in retina of rabbits in normal control group.Conclusion It is convenient, practical and effective to establish a HRD model by means of transvitreal subretinal injection of autologous anticoagulated blood.

Objective To investigate the effect of subretinal fluid (SRF) with different grades of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) on bcl-2 oncoprotein expression in retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells and fib roblast (FB)． Methods Using immunohistological staining technique and Western-blotting method to detect the expression of bcl-2 protein in RPE cells and FB under the stimulation of SRF． Results The expression levels of bcl-2 increased in both types of cells to a certain extent compared with those of the control group 4 hours after the cells subjected to SRF； 36 hours later, the expression levels of bcl-2 of experimental groups decreased more quickly than those of the control group， and the control group showed relatively higher bcl-2 protein levels at the end of observation． Conclusions SRF may stimulate the e xpression of bcl-2 in RPE cells and FB under culture at early stage, but accel arate the declining of bcl-2 protein levels a certain time after subjected to SRF． (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2001,17:58-60)
OBJECTIVE: To study the clinical effects of allosclera transplant for eyelid reconstruction. METHODS: From May 1986 to January 2001, 45 patients who suffered from partial eyelid defect underwent the allosclera transplant for eyelid reconstruction, There were 31 cases of male and 14 cases of female, 18 cases of the upper eyelid and 27 cases of the lower eyelid, among them, 22 cases were caused by eyelid trauma and 23 cases by eyelid tumor. The length of eyelid defect were less than 1/2 of the whole eyelid. The morphology and function of the eyelid and complications were observed after operation. RESULTS: All 45 cases were followed up for 11 to 38 months, 19.7 months on average. The eyelid morphology and mobility restored well and there was no influence on visual function. CONCLUSION: The xenosclera is an ideal material for eyelid reconstruction.
Objective To probe the clinical character,the histopathological classification and misdiagnoses of intraocular tumors. Methods The clinical and pathological data of 359 patients with intraocular tumor diagnosed clinically between 1980～2000 were retrospectively analyzed. Results There were 300 cases of malignant tumor and 23 cases of benign tumor respectively. Non-oncologic malady and benign tumor misdiagnosed as tumor or malignant tumor were 40 cases. The two leading malignant tumors were retinoblastoma and melanoma. Conclusion The clinical and pathological analysis of intraocular tumor is beneficial to the correct clinical diagnosis and treatment. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,2002,18:28-30)
