Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to determine the clinical indications for orbital exenteration, demographic profile of these patients, and clinicopathologic correlations in the current times and to compare these results with previous published data. METHODS It was a retrospective study. All exenterations performed at a tertiary eye care center over a period of 20 years (from January 2001 to June 2020) were retrospectively evaluated. Patient records were reviewed to obtain demographic data, presenting symptoms and their duration, laterality, and clinical and histopathologic diagnosis. RESULTS A total of 352 cases (males:females = 222:130) who underwent exenteration were identified. Patients age ranged from 11 months to 87 years (mean: 43.86 years, median: 50 years). The most common indication for exenteration was found to be eyelid malignancy in 54.36%, followed by retinoblastoma in 18.75% and primary orbital tumors in 14.49%. Out of 156 cases of eyelid malignancies requiring exenteration, squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) was the most common histologic subtype ( n = 94, 60.26%), followed by sebaceous gland carcinoma ( n = 40, 25.64%) and basal cell carcinoma ( n = 20, 12.82%). The most common primary orbital tumors requiring exenteration were adenocystic carcinoma of the lacrimal gland in adults and rhabdomyosarcoma in the pediatric age group. Benign conditions requiring exenteration included fulminant fungal orbital infections and lymphangioma among others. CONCLUSION The number of exenterations performed have significantly increased in terms of absolute numbers. However, the ratio of exenteration to other tumor-related surgeries, mainly excision biopsy, has reduced compared to that reported from a previous study. The most common indication in our study remains eyelid malignancy followed by intraocular malignancy. However, SCC has emerged as the most common tumor histologic subtype requiring exenterations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Conjunctival melanoma (CM) has genetic characteristics that are similar to primary cutaneous melanoma (PCM). The management of advanced CM with orbital metastasis was limited until the adoption of novel immunotherapy agents that significantly improved the survival of metastatic PCM. PURPOSE To review and compare the immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment response in cases reported in the English literature with orbital involvement secondary to CM versus PCM. In addition, we report a case of local recurrence of CM in a young female after successful treatment with ICI. METHODS In addition to reviewing the chart of one patient who presented to our clinic, we conducted a comprehensive literature review to identify CM cases and cases with orbital metastasis secondary to advanced CM and PCM. Outcomes included patient demographics, response to ICI, and associated adverse effects. RESULTS There were ten cases with orbital involvement, four were secondary to CM, and six were metastasis from PCM. Orbital metastasis from PCM regressed following treatment with ICI agents, whereas those secondary to CM resolved completely. There were 19 cases of CM without orbital invasion. Of the 29 cases identified, complete resolution of ocular melanoma was achieved in 15 patients, representing 52% of the cases collectively, and none of them reported recurrence except in our case. CONCLUSION CM with orbital invasion responds well to ICIs, with manageable toxic effects. Despite the complete resolution, close observation is needed as the recurrence risk remains.

Abstract
Primary sebaceous carcinoma of the lacrimal gland (PSCLG) is the rarest lacrimal gland (LG) tumor, often belatedly diagnosed, worsening the prognosis. We present a 68-year-old man with a large, indurated mass in the left orbital outer quadrant, visible at the conjunctival upper temporal fornix, extending to the lower fornix, with left gaze restriction. The lesion was not related to the eyelid or other periocular tissues. Excisional biopsy revealed the PSCLG diagnosis. There are only eight others previous PSCLGs. Males are the most affected. Indurated mass in the lacrimal fossa, with eyelid in "S" shape is the most common presentation. Image exams are suggestive, but histological and immunohistochemical evaluations showing a single tumor cell line within LG are mandatory for definitive diagnosis. Larger and more extensive lesions can have a poor prognosis, but early detection can favor the outcome.

Orbital Exenteration for Craniofacial Lesions: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Patient Characteristics and Survival Outcomes. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:4285. [PMID: 37686561 PMCID: PMC10487227 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15174285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The outcomes of orbital exenteration (OE) in patients with craniofacial lesions (CFLs) remain unclear. The present review summarizes the available literature on the clinical outcomes of OE, including surgical outcomes and overall survival (OS). METHODS Relevant articles were retrieved from Medline, Scopus, and Cochrane according to PRISMA guidelines. A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted on the clinical characteristics, management, and outcomes. RESULTS A total of 33 articles containing 957 patients who underwent OE for CFLs were included (weighted mean age: 64.3 years [95% CI: 59.9-68.7]; 58.3% were male). The most common lesion was squamous cell carcinoma (31.8%), and the most common symptom was disturbed vision/reduced visual acuity (22.5%). Of the patients, 302 (31.6%) had total OE, 248 (26.0%) had extended OE, and 87 (9.0%) had subtotal OE. Free flaps (33.3%), endosseous implants (22.8%), and split-thickness skin grafts (17.2%) were the most used reconstructive methods. Sino-orbital or sino-nasal fistula (22.6%), flap or graft failure (16.9%), and hyperostosis (13%) were the most reported complications. Regarding tumor recurrences, 38.6% were local, 32.3% were distant, and 6.7% were regional. The perineural invasion rate was 17.4%, while the lymphovascular invasion rate was 5.0%. Over a weighted mean follow-up period of 23.6 months (95% CI: 13.8-33.4), a weighted overall mortality rate of 39% (95% CI: 28-50%) was observed. The 5-year OS rate was 50% (median: 61 months [95% CI: 46-83]). The OS multivariable analysis did not show any significant findings. CONCLUSIONS Although OE is a disfiguring procedure with devastating outcomes, it is a viable option for carefully selected patients with advanced CFLs. A patient-tailored approach based on tumor pathology, extension, and overall patient condition is warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify the risk factors of orbital exenteration and to evaluate the prognosis of exenterated patients with conjunctival melanoma (CM). METHODS 79 consecutive CM patients treated at our centre from January 2000 to September 2021 were included. The demographic, clinical and pathological characteristics were compared between eye-sparing patients and orbital exenteration patients. Main outcomes including progression-free survival (PFS), distant metastasis-free survival (DFS) and disease specific survival (DSS) were assessed in exenterated patients. RESULTS The mean follow-up period was 46 ± 39 months. Risk factors for orbital exenteration were identified as worse cT category (OR, 50.75; 95% CI, 5.40-477.07; P = 0.001) and greater tumour thickness (OR, 1.27; CI, 1.04-1.55; P = 0.02). Of the 32 patients who underwent orbital exenteration, three (9.4%) had local recurrence; six (18.8%) experienced regional metastasis; sixteen (50.0%) suffered distant metastasis and fifteen (46.9%) died of metastatic disease. In patients who received orbital exenteration, palpebral conjunctiva involvement (PFS: P < 0.01; DFS: P < 0.05; DSS: P = 0.04), histological ulceration (PFS: P = 0.03; DFS: P = 0.01; DSS: P = 0.03) and regression (PFS: P = 0.01; DFS: P < 0.01; DSS: P = 0.04) were identified as risk factors for poor prognosis. Caruncle involvement (P = 0.01) was also associated with increased risk of melanoma related mortality in exenterated patients. CONCLUSIONS Histopathological factors should be taken into account when formulating surgical plans for orbital exenteration and when evaluating patients' prognosis following exenteration. For CM patients with caruncle or palpebral conjunctiva involvement, orbital exenteration should be considered for unresectable disease.

Abstract
Although its incidence has increased over the last decades, conjunctival melanoma (CM) remains a rare but challenging periocular malignancy. While there is currently no recognized standard of care, "no-touch" surgical excision followed by adjuvant treatments is usually recommended. Despite its small size, managing CM is challenging for clinicians. The first challenge is the high risk of tumour local recurrence that occurs in about one third of the patients. The management of locally advanced CM (≥T2) or multiple recurrences may require mutilating surgeries such as orbital exenteration (OE). The second challenge is the metastatic spread of CM that occurs in about one quarter of patients, regardless of whether complete surgical excision is performed or not. This highlights the infiltrative and highly aggressive behaviour of CM. Recently, attention has been directed towards the use of eye-sparing strategies to avoid OE. Initially, wide conservative surgeries followed by customized brachytherapy or radiotherapy have appeared as viable strategies. Nowadays, new biological insights into CM have revealed similarities with cutaneous melanoma. These new findings have allowed clinicians to reconsider the management of locally advanced CM with "medical" eye-sparing treatment as well as the management of metastatic spread. The aim of this review was to summarize the current and future perspectives of treatment for CM based on recent biological findings.

New Targeted Therapies and Immunotherapies for Locally Advanced Periocular Malignant Tumours: Towards a New 'Eye-Sparing' Paradigm? Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:2822. [PMID: 34198863 PMCID: PMC8201354 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13112822] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2021] [Revised: 05/24/2021] [Accepted: 06/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
The management of periocular skin malignant tumours is challenging. Surgery remains the mainstay of treatment for localised eyelid cancers. For more locally advanced cancers, especially those invading the orbit, orbital exenteration has long been considered the gold standard; however, it is a highly disfiguring and traumatic surgery. The last two decades have been marked by the emergence of a new paradigm shift towards the use of 'eye-sparing' strategies. In the early 2000s, the first step consisted of performing wide conservative eyelid and orbital excisions. Multiple flaps and grafts were needed, as well as adjuvant radiotherapy in selected cases. Although being incredibly attractive, several limitations such as the inability to treat the more posteriorly located orbital lesions, as well as unbearable diplopia, eye pain and even secondary eye loss were identified. Therefore, surgeons should distinguish 'eye-sparing' from 'sight-sparing' strategies. The second step emerged over the last decade and was based on the development of targeted therapies and immunotherapies. Their advantages include their potential ability to treat almost all tumours, regardless of their locations, without performing complex surgeries. However, several limitations have been reported, including their side effects, the appearance of primary or secondary resistances, their price and the lack of consensus on treatment regimen and exact duration. The aim of this article was to review the evolution of the management of locally advanced periocular malignant tumours over the last three decades and highlight the new paradigm shift towards the use of 'eye-sparing' strategies.

Efficacy and safety of an artificial dermal graft for the reconstruction of exenterated sockets: a preliminary report. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2021; 259:2827-2835. [PMID: 33770270 DOI: 10.1007/s00417-021-05155-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2020] [Revised: 02/20/2021] [Accepted: 03/09/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to report our experience with the use of artificial dermis grafts for orbital socket reconstruction following orbital exenteration (OE). METHOD A retrospective study was conducted in our ocular oncology centre from May 2018 to June 2020 in patients undergoing OE for orbital malignancies in whom an artificial dermis device (Integra® template, 2 layers) was used for reconstruction. Data recorded included demographics, previous and adjuvant treatments, aetiologies, surgical procedure, surgical reconstruction, complications and follow-up. The main outcome measure was the time between OE and the full granulation of the cavity. RESULTS Ten patients (mean age, 71.3 years [43-92]) were included. Tumours originated from the conjunctiva (n = 5, 50%), eyelid (n = 3, 30%) and orbit (n = 2, 20%). Nine patients underwent total OE, and one required enlarged OE. Orbital reconstruction was performed using an artificial dermis alone (n = 9, 90%) or combined with regional flaps (n = 1, 10%). The mean granulation time was 3.3 weeks (2-4). Three (30%) patients received adjuvant radiotherapy 1 month post-surgery. The mean time to spontaneous epithelialization was 9.4 weeks (6-12). Preoperative and postoperative radiotherapy was not associated with a delayed epithelialization of the socket (p = 0.463 and p = 0.236, respectively). One (10%) and 2 (20%) patients experienced postoperative socket infection and an ethmoidal fistula, respectively. The mean follow-up was 11.6 months (6-16). CONCLUSION Using artificial dermis grafts alone or with regional flaps appears to be a viable surgical procedure for orbital socket reconstruction. They reduce surgical morbidity and hospital stay. Preoperative and postoperative radiotherapy does not seem to delay socket healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Growing evidence supports an individualised approach rather than radical surgery for conjunctival melanoma (CM). This study aimed to compare the long-term outcome between individualised and conventional exenteration techniques. METHODS Our study retrospectively recruited advanced CM (clinical T3 stage) patients treated with individualised (13 cases) or conventional (18 cases) exenteration from June 2014 to April 2019. The individualised approach preserved at least three quadrants of the orbit, and the conventional procedures removed at least one third of the orbital tissues. The medical records were collected and analyzed during April 2020, including demographics, tumour characteristics, surgical details, postoperative rehabilitation and tumour-related prognosis. RESULTS The tumour basal diameter was statistically (P = 0.011) larger in the conventional group (23.3 ± 7.6 mm) than in the individualised group (15.4 ± 6.3 mm). More tissues were preserved in the individualised group, resulting in a shorter duration of wound healing (2.1 ± 0.6 vs. 3.6 ± 2.0 weeks, P = 0.018) and less incidence of hollow appearance (15% vs. 72%, P = 0.003) than the conventional group. After follow-up for 39.3 ± 17.3 months, a comparison of survival curves showed no significant differences (P = 0.638) between the two groups. The 1- and 2-year overall survival rates were estimated as 100% and 80.0% in the individualised group, and 93.8% and 72.5% in the conventional group, respectively. Low or mixed pigmentation was identified as the risk factor for tumour-related mortality based on multivariate regression analysis. CONCLUSIONS The individualised approach to exenteration offers improved aesthetic results while still maximises the curable chance for advanced CM.

Abstract
PURPOSE Orbital exenteration is a radical and disfiguring surgery mainly performed for treating orbital malignancies. Recently, several studies found favorable results in terms of overall survival with eye-sparing surgeries combined with targeted therapies and/or radiotherapy. The aim of this study was to assess the incidence of orbital exenteration and its evolution in France between 2006 and 2017. METHODS A national observational cohort study was conducted in France between January 2006 and December 2017. Data were collected from the national PMSI (Programme de Médicalisation des Systèmes d'Information) database provided by the CNAM (Caisse Nationale de l'Assurance Maladie). All patients undergoing orbital exenteration over the study period in France were included. RESULTS One thousand and fifty-seven patients were included. The mean annual number of orbital exenterations was 88.1 (63-117), corresponding to a mean incidence of 0.1/100,000 inhabitants/year. A male predominance was noted (n = 626, 59.2%). Exenteration was mainly performed between 75 and 79 years. The underlying etiology was available for 821 patients (77.7%): malignancies were the most common (n = 755; 92.0%) followed by infectious diseases (n = 16; 1.9%). Over the study period, no statistical difference in the mean incidence of orbital exenteration was found (p = .132). CONCLUSION The mean annual incidence of orbital exenteration was 0.1/100,000 inhabitants in France and was not significantly modified during the study period.
