Abstract
Orbital inflammatory disease (OID) comprises approximately 6% of orbital conditions, affecting individuals across all ages. The range of the primary orbital inflammation’s differential diagnosis is extensive, encompassing autoimmune disorders such as thyroid diseases, vasculitis, sarcoidosis, connective tissue diseases, immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD), and giant cell myositis, whereas secondary causes span from infections to drug-induced causes. Analyzing histopathological aspects and cell populations could enhance our comprehension of the etiology of orbital inflammatory involvement in systemic diseases such as IgG4-RD. We present a series of four patients from our Rheumatology clinic, each with distinct systemic diseases, illustrating diverse manifestations of OID. This series was conducted to facilitate discussions and diagnoses of challenging cases of OID in a rheumatologic setting. The difficulty in the differential diagnosis arises from the extensive range of structures involved, resulting in a significant variation of clinical manifestations. Furthermore, the lack of definitive diagnostic laboratory tests and, often, histological findings add to the complexity. OID poses diagnostic challenges with variable clinical manifestations and overlapping imaging findings. As a diagnosis of exclusion, a comprehensive evaluation is crucial, often necessitating an orbital biopsy for confirmation. Collaborative efforts among specialists are essential for managing these intricate cases.

Elucidating the multifaceted roles of GPR146 in non-specific orbital inflammation: a concerted analytical approach through the prisms of bioinformatics and machine learning. Front Med (Lausanne) 2024; 11:1309510. [PMID: 38903815 PMCID: PMC11188444 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2024.1309510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2023] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Non-specific Orbital Inflammation (NSOI) is a chronic idiopathic condition marked by extensive polymorphic lymphoid infiltration in the orbital area. The integration of metabolic and immune pathways suggests potential therapeutic roles for C-peptide and G protein-coupled receptor 146 (GPR146) in diabetes and its sequelae. However, the specific mechanisms through which GPR146 modulates immune responses remain poorly understood. Furthermore, the utility of GPR146 as a diagnostic or prognostic marker for NSOI has not been conclusively demonstrated. Methods We adopted a comprehensive analytical strategy, merging differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets GSE58331 and GSE105149 with immune-related genes from the ImmPort database. Our methodology combined LASSO regression and support vector machine-recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE) for feature selection, followed by Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) and Gene Set Variation Analysis (GSVA) to explore gene sets co-expressed with GPR146, identifying a significant enrichment in immune-related pathways. The tumor microenvironment's immune composition was quantified using the CIBERSORT algorithm and the ESTIMATE method, which confirmed a positive correlation between GPR146 expression and immune cell infiltration. Validation of GPR146 expression was performed using the GSE58331 dataset. Results Analysis identified 113 DEGs associated with GPR146, with a significant subset showing distinct expression patterns. Using LASSO and SVM-RFE, we pinpointed 15 key hub genes. Functionally, these genes and GPR146 were predominantly linked to receptor ligand activity, immune receptor activity, and cytokine-mediated signaling. Specific immune cells, such as memory B cells, M2 macrophages, resting mast cells, monocytes, activated NK cells, plasma cells, and CD8+ T cells, were positively associated with GPR146 expression. In contrast, M0 macrophages, naive B cells, M1 macrophages, activated mast cells, activated memory CD4+ T cells, naive CD4+ T cells, and gamma delta T cells showed inverse correlations. Notably, our findings underscore the potential diagnostic relevance of GPR146 in distinguishing NSOI. Conclusion Our study elucidates the immunological signatures associated with GPR146 in the context of NSOI, highlighting its prognostic and diagnostic potential. These insights pave the way for GPR146 to be a novel biomarker for monitoring the progression of NSOI, providing a foundation for future therapeutic strategies targeting immune-metabolic pathways.

Abstract
Diagnosis and therapy of orbital diseases is an interdisciplinary challenge, in which i.e. otorhinolaryngologists, ophthalmologists, radiologists, radiation therapists, maxillo-facial surgeons, endocrinologists, and pediatricians are involved. This review article describes frequent diseases which both, otolaryngologists and ophthalmologists are concerned with in interdisciplinary settings. In particular the inflammatory diseases of the orbit including orbital complications, autoimmunological diseases of the orbit including Grave´s orbitopathy, and primary and secondary tumors of the orbit are discussed. Beside describing the clinical characteristics and diagnostic steps the article focusses on the interdisciplinary therapy. The review is completed by the presentation of most important surgical approaches to the orbit, their indications and possible complications. The authors tried to highlight the relevant facts despite the shortness of the text.

Abstract
PURPOSE The current study queries the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) Intelligent Research in Sight (IRIS) registry for data on the epidemiology, work-up, and management patterns of autoimmune orbital inflammation. METHODS Analysis and description of patient data from the IRIS registry between 2013 and 2019 reviewing patients with autoimmune or idiopathic orbital inflammation with filters based on International Classification of Disease (ICD) and Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes. Patients with thyroid eye disease, orbital cellulitis, and orbital abscess were excluded. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Demographic descriptions included gender, age, geographic region, and treatment. Sub-analysis was performed by assessing rates of imaging, biopsy, lab work-up, and diagnostic categories. RESULTS In a final cohort of 20,584 patients, the mean age of onset of orbital inflammation was 51.7 years; 67% female; and 63% Caucasian, 21% unknown, 12% Black, 2.6% Asian, and 1.5% other. Only 49 had imaging, 78 had laboratory work-up, and 1,411 had biopsy codes. Treatment results showed 166 patients receiving antibiotics, 224 patients receiving steroids, and 35 patients receiving both. CONCLUSIONS This study assessed the epidemiology, diagnostic patterns, and treatment patterns for orbital inflammation through the AAO IRIS registry. Practise patterns suggest a relatively low overall rate of imaging and laboratory studies compared to biopsies, although this certainly under-represents the actual number of imaging and laboratory studies and exemplifies the inherent imprecision of using a large database. However, the methodology of this study provides a framework of approaching the IRIS registry for oculoplastic research.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles include exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptotic bodies. Their cargos contain a diverse variety of lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids that are involved in both normal physiology and pathology of the ocular system. Thus, studying extracellular vesicles may lead to a more comprehensive understanding of the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and even potential treatments for various diseases. The roles of extracellular vesicles in inflammatory eye disorders have been widely investigated in recent years. The term “inflammatory eye diseases” refers to a variety of eye conditions such as inflammation-related diseases, degenerative conditions with remarkable inflammatory components, neuropathy, and tumors. This study presents an overview of extracellular vesicles’ and exosomes’ pathogenic, diagnostic, and therapeutic values in inflammatory eye diseases, as well as existing and potential challenges.

Abstract
Orbital myositis comprises a subtype of idiopathic orbital inflammation. Symptoms and clinical signs include orbital pain, eyelid swelling, ptosis, and conjunctival chemosis, sometimes concurrent with diplopia. Orbital myositis typically occurs in an idiopathic acute form and affects one or more extraocular muscles. It mainly involves the rectus muscles; cases involving the superior oblique muscle have been rarely reported. We report the case of a 57-year-old man with sudden-onset diplopia. Initial examination was suggestive of right superior oblique muscle palsy; however, myositis of the right superior oblique muscle was confirmed on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The patient was started on intravenous steroid pulse treatment. The steroid was tapered for 4 months. Diplopia, exotropia, and excyclotorsion of the right eye disappeared after 3 weeks of treatment. Cranial MRI obtained 2 months after starting treatment showed a normal superior oblique muscle. There has been no recurrence with 8 months of follow-up after completing the steroid taper.

Abstract
PURPOSE Orbital myositis is a common cause of orbital inflammation with localized involvement of the extra ocular muscles. This study aimed to assess the value of infliximab in controlling orbital myositis and reducing its relapse rate. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of the medical records of all consecutive patients with orbital myositis treated with infliximab between 2007 and 2016. We examined change in corticosteroid and immunomodulatory doses as well as relapse rates following treatment with infliximab. RESULTS The study included seven patients with an average follow up of 19 ± 13.4 months. The mean dose of systemic corticosteroid was reduced from 28.57 ± 14.35 mg/day at the time of infliximab initiation to 7.00 ± 6.83 mg/day at final follow-up (p = .003). Long-term remission was achieved in 85.7% (n = 6). CONCLUSION This study supports the role of infliximab in treating refractory orbital myositis and this was associated with clinical improvement, decreasing relapse rate with dose reduction of conventional treatment.

Radiomics Nomogram for Preoperative Differentiation Between Ocular Adnexal Lymphoma and Idiopathic Orbital Inflammation. J Magn Reson Imaging 2022; 57:1594-1604. [PMID: 36053805 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.28404] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Revised: 08/08/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ocular adnexal lymphoma (OAL) and idiopathic orbital inflammation (IOI) are malignant and benign lesions for which radiotherapy and corticosteroids are indicated, but similar clinical manifestations make their differentiation difficult. PURPOSE To develop and validate an MRI-based radiomics nomogram for individual diagnosis of OAL vs. IOI. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. POPULATION A total of 103 patients (46.6% female) with mean age of 56.4 ± 16.3 years having OAL (n = 58) or IOI (n = 45) were divided into an independent training (n = 82) and a testing dataset (n = 21). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE A 3-T, precontrast T1-weighted imaging (T1WI), T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), and postcontrast T1WI (T1 + C). ASSESSMENT Radiomics features were extracted and selected from segmented tumors and peritumoral regions in MRI before-and-after filtering. These features, alone or combined with clinical characteristics, were used to construct a radiomics or joint signature to differentiate OAL from IOI, respectively. A joint nomogram was built to show the impact of the radiomics signature and clinical characteristics on individual risk of developing OAL. STATISTICAL TESTS Area under the curve (AUC) and accuracy (ACC) were used for performance evaluation. Mann-Whitney U and Chi-square tests were used to analyze continuous and categorical variables. Decision curve analysis, kappa statistics, DeLong and Hosmer-Lemeshow tests were also conducted. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS The joint signature achieved an AUC of 0.833 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.806-0.870), slightly better than the radiomics signature with an AUC of 0.806 (95% CI: 0.767-0.838) (P = 0.778). The joint and radiomics signatures were comparable to experienced radiologists referencing to clinical characteristics (ACC = 0.810 vs. 0.796-0.806, P > 0.05) or not (AUC = 0.806 vs. 0.753-0.791, P > 0.05), respectively. The joint nomogram gained more net benefits than the radiomics nomogram, despite both showing good calibration and discriminatory efficiency (P > 0.05). DATA CONCLUSION The developed radiomics-based analysis might help to improve the diagnostic performance and reveal the association between radiomics features and individual risk of developing OAL. EVIDENCE LEVEL 3 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: 3.

Abstract
PURPOSE Bacterial orbital cellulitis (OC) and diffuse non-specific orbital inflammation (DNSOI) may be challenging to differentiate clinically. This study investigates the utility of systemic inflammatory markers, namely white cell count (WCC) and C-reactive protein (CRP), in differentiating between OC and DNSOI. METHODS A single-centre retrospective study of patients diagnosed with OC or DNSOI, between 2003 to 2021, who had WCC and/or CRP obtained at presentation. The mean levels of these factors and the proportion of positivity were compared between OC and DNSOI. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was conducted to calculate the specificity and sensitivity of WCC or CRP in each group. RESULTS 49 patients were included in this study. The mean age was 56 ± 20 years, and 21 patients were females. 26 (53.1%) patients had OC, and 23 (46.9%) patients had DNSOI. Mean WCC for OC and DNSOI were 14.5 × 103/μL and 9.27 × 103/μL, respectively (P = 0.001). Mean CRP for OC and DNSOI were 104.4 mg/L and 10.0 mg/L, respectively (P < 0.001). The optimal CRP cut-off value of 20.2 mg/L demonstrated 90.9% sensitivity and 90.5% specificity (AUC = 0.946, P < 0.001) for differentiating between OC and DNSOI. CRP was more predictive of OC than WCC (P = 0.017). 7/26 (26.9%) OC patients with fever also had an elevated CRP, while 1/23 (4.3%) of DNSOI with fever had a normal CRP. CONCLUSIONS An elevated WCC is suggestive of OC. However, a normal WCC can neither exclude nor differentiate between OC and DNSOI. CRP may be a more accurate predictor of OC compared to WCC.

A deep learning model combining multimodal radiomics, clinical and imaging features for differentiating ocular adnexal lymphoma from idiopathic orbital inflammation. Eur Radiol 2022; 32:6922-6932. [PMID: 35674824 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-022-08857-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2021] [Revised: 04/10/2022] [Accepted: 05/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/04/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the value of deep learning (DL) combining multimodal radiomics and clinical and imaging features for differentiating ocular adnexal lymphoma (OAL) from idiopathic orbital inflammation (IOI). METHODS Eighty-nine patients with histopathologically confirmed OAL (n = 39) and IOI (n = 50) were divided into training and validation groups. Convolutional neural networks and multimodal fusion layers were used to extract multimodal radiomics features from the T1-weighted image (T1WI), T2-weighted image, and contrast-enhanced T1WI. These multimodal radiomics features were then combined with clinical and imaging features and used together to differentiate between OAL and IOI. The area under the curve (AUC) was used to evaluate DL models with different features under five-fold cross-validation. The Student t-test, chi-squared, or Fisher exact test was used for comparison of different groups. RESULTS In the validation group, the diagnostic AUC of the DL model using combined features was 0.953 (95% CI, 0.895-1.000), higher than that of the DL model using multimodal radiomics features (0.843, 95% CI, 0.786-0.898, p < 0.01) or clinical and imaging features only (0.882, 95% CI, 0.782-0.982, p = 0.13). The DL model built on multimodal radiomics features outperformed those built on most bimodalities and unimodalities (p < 0.05). In addition, the DL-based analysis with the orbital cone area (covering both the orbital mass and surrounding tissues) was superior to that with the region of interest (ROI) covering only the mass area, although the difference was not significant (p = 0.33). CONCLUSIONS DL-based analysis that combines multimodal radiomics features with clinical and imaging features may help to differentiate between OAL and IOI. KEY POINTS • It is difficult to differentiate OAL from IOI due to the overlap in clinical and imaging manifestations. • Radiomics has shown potential for noninvasive diagnosis of different orbital lymphoproliferative disorders. • DL-based analysis combining radiomics and imaging and clinical features may help the differentiation between OAL and IOI.

Abstract
PURPOSE Immunogenic causes of inflammation may be difficult to differentiate in the work-up of orbital inflammatory disease. The study aims to investigate the utility of autoimmune markers in the screening for orbital inflammation. Markers studied included angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), antinuclear antibody (ANA), anti-neutrophilic cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCA), extractable nuclear antigen (ENA), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (Anti-CCP) and anti-double stranded DNA antibody (Anti-dsDNA antibody). METHODS A retrospective single-centre study of consecutive patients with non-infective orbital inflammation screened for autoimmune markers at presentation. Serology was interpreted alongside clinical course and other investigations (e.g. radiographic features and histopathology). Tabulated data and Pearson's Chi-square allowed analysis of trends between serology, diagnosis and the decision to biopsy. RESULTS 79 patients, between 1999 and 2021, were included (50 females, mean age was 50.4 ± 17.4 years). 28 (34.6%) patients had specific orbital inflammation and 53 (65.4%) patients had non-specific orbital inflammation (NSOI). Of the 12 patients with positive serology and a specific diagnosis, only 5 (41.7%) patients had concordant serological results. There was no association between serology results and the patient undergoing biopsy (P = 0.651). Serology was unable to exclude nor differentiate NSOI from other specific conditions and ANA had limited discriminatory value between specific conditions and NSOI. CONCLUSION Serological testing alone may not provide a clear direction for further investigation of orbital inflammation and a biopsy may occur independently of the serological results. The value of autoimmune markers may lie in subsequent follow-up as patients may develop suggestive symptoms after an indeterminate positive result or initially seronegative disease.

Abstract
Background To identify the prevalence of positive IgG4 immunostaining in orbital tissue among patients previously diagnosed with nongranulomatous idiopathic orbital inflammation (IOI) and to compare the clinical characteristics of patients with and without IgG4-positive cells. Methods A retrospective review of all patients with a histopathologic diagnosis of IOI was performed. Immunohistochemical staining was performed to identify IgG-positive cells and IgG4-positive cells. Multivariate analysis was performed using likelihood ratio-test logistic regression on the differences between IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) and non-IgG4-RD. Results Of the 45 patients included, 21 patients (46.7%) had IgG4-positive cells, with 52.4% being male and a mean age of 55.9 ± 13.4 years. Bilateral ocular adnexal involvement (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 9.45; P = 0.016) and infraorbital nerve enlargement (aOR = 12.11; P = 0.008) were frequently found in IgG4-RD patients. Complete remission occurred in 23.8% of IgG4-RD patients and 41.7% of non-IgG4-RD patients. IgG4-RD patients had more frequent recurrent disease than non-IgG4-RD patients. Conclusions Nearly 50% of IgG4-RD patients were previously diagnosed with biopsy-proven IOI. IgG4-RD was more frequent in patients with bilateral disease and infraorbital nerve enlargement, showing the importance of tissue biopsy in these patients. Immunohistochemistry studies of all histopathology slides showing nongranulomatous IOI are highly recommended to evaluate for IgG4-RD.

Abstract
PURPOSE To provide a comprehensive review of rituximab use for the treatment of non-infectious/non-malignant orbital inflammation. METHODS Review of literature through January 2021. RESULTS Individual data was available for 167 patients with refractory non-infectious/non-malignant orbital inflammation who received treatment with rituximab (RTX). Rituximab was generally utilized as third-line or later treatment (108/149, 72.5%) at a mean of 44.6 months following the diagnosis of orbital inflammation (range = 0 to 360 months; median = 13.7 months). Patients with non-infectious/non-malignant orbital inflammation either received prior treatment with corticosteroids only (27/122, 22.1%), or with one (31/122, 25.4%), two (25/122, 20.5%), or three or more (25/122, 20.5%) corticosteroid-sparing immunosuppressive agents with or without corticosteroids before initiation of RTX treatment. The rheumatologic protocol (two infusions of 1 gram of RTX separated by 14 days) was utilized most frequently (80/144, 55.6%), followed by the oncologic protocol (four weekly infusions of 375 mg/m2 RTX; 51/144, 35.4%). Various other off-label regimens were used infrequently (13/144, 9.0%). Rituximab treatments resulted in a positive therapeutic response for the majority of patients with orbital inflammation (146/166, 88.0%). Commonly treated diagnoses included granulomatosis with polyangiitis (99/167, 59.3%), IgG-4 related disease (36/167, 21.6%), and orbital inflammation of indeterminate cause (25/167, 15.0%). No side effects were reported in 83.3% (55/66) of cases. The most common RTX-induced adverse event was an infusion-related temporary exacerbation of orbital disease (4/66, 6.1%), which occurred prior to the routine use of systemic corticosteroids as pre-conditioning. CONCLUSIONS Overall, RTX appears to be both efficacious and well-tolerated as second- or third-line therapy for patients with non-infectious/non-malignant orbital inflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical picture of specific orbital inflammation can be subdivided into infectious diseases and idiopathic as well as autoimmune diseases. OBJECTIVE This synopsis should help the reader to become acquainted with rare, yet important differential diagnoses of specific orbital inflammations. MATERIAL AND METHODS A variety of cases of specific orbital inflammation from our interdisciplinary orbital consultation are presented that illustrate examples supported by the medical literature, expert opinions as well as the authors' personal experiences. RESULTS Orbital symptoms can occur due to infectious pathogens, rheumatic systemic autoimmune diseases or be idiopathic. They mostly manifest by swelling of the lids or lacrimal glands but involvement of deep orbital structures is also possible. CONCLUSION It is of importance to know the possible clinical ocular manifestations of infectious and rheumatic immunological systemic diseases in order to be able to treat patients adequately and whenever necessary by a multidisciplinary approach.

Abstract
Orbital inflammatory disease, sequel to epidemic keratoconjunctivitis is an uncommon finding in adult patients. A 36-year-old male presented at the clinic with a 4-day history of left ocular pain and a one-month history of left eye redness and watering. Visual acuity in the eye was 6/5, with reduced red-color saturation and light brightness appreciation. Left eye examination showed periorbital fullness, a palpably enlarged and tender lacrimal gland, conjunctival follicles with pseudomembranes, and restriction of extraocular motility. Magnetic resonance imaging showed homogenous enhancement of the left lacrimal gland, lateral rectus muscle, pre and post-septal soft tissues. A diagnosis of left orbital inflammatory disease secondary to epidemic keratoconjunctivitis was made and patient was treated with high dose oral steroids over the course of 7 weeks, with complete resolution of clinical symptoms. In conclusion, orbital inflammatory disease can develop following epidemic keratoconjuctivitis in adults with good clinical response to oral steroids. Clinicians should have a high index of suspicion when assessing adult patients for orbital inflammatory disease.

Abstract
Purpose The orbit displays unique vulnerability to inflammatory conditions. The most prevalent of these conditions, thyroid eye disease (TED), occurs in up to 50% of patients with Graves’ disease (GD). Whereas the pathology of both TED and GD is driven by autoantibodies, it is unclear why symptoms manifest specifically in the orbit. Methods We performed retinoic acid treatment on both normal and TED patient–derived orbital fibroblasts (OFs) followed by mRNA and protein isolation, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, RNA sequencing, and Western blot analyses. Results Both normal and TED patient–derived OFs display robust induction of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) upon retinoid treatment; TED OFs secrete significantly more MCP-1 than normal OFs. In addition, pretreatment of OFs with thiophenecarboxamide (TPCA-1) inhibits retinoid-induced MCP-1 induction, suggesting an NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells)–dependent mechanism. We also found that treatment with cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) mitigates MCP-1 induction, likely because of competition between retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and vitamin D receptors (VDR) for their common binding partner retinoid nuclear receptors (RXRs). Conclusions Retinoids that naturally accumulate in orbital adipose tissue can act on orbital fibroblasts to induce the expression of inflammation-associated genes. These data suggest a potential role for retinoids in sensitizing the orbit to inflammation.

Abstract
Radiologic orbital imaging provides important information in the diagnosis and management of orbital inflammation. However, the diagnostic value of orbital imaging is not well elucidated. This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of orbital imaging to diagnose orbital inflammatory diseases and its ability to detect active inflammation. We collected 75 scans of 52 patients (49 computed tomography (CT) scans; 26 magnetic resonance (MR) imaging scans). Clinical diagnoses included thyroid eye disease (TED) (41 scans, 31 patients), non-specific orbital inflammation (NSOI) (22 scans, 14 patients), sarcoidosis (4 scans, 3 patients), IgG4-related ophthalmic disease (IgG4-ROD) (5 scans, 3 patients), and granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) (3 scans, 1 patient). Two experienced neuroradiologists interpreted the scans, offered a most likely diagnosis, and assessed the activity of inflammation, blinded to clinical findings. The accuracy rate of radiological diagnosis compared to each clinical diagnosis was evaluated. Sensitivity and specificity in detecting active inflammation were analyzed for TED and NSOI. The accuracy rate of radiologic diagnosis was 80.0% for IgG4-ROD, 77.3% for NSOI, and 73.2% for TED. Orbital imaging could not diagnose sarcoidosis. Orbital CT had a sensitivity of 50.0% and a specificity of 75.0% to predict active TED using clinical assessment as the gold standard. The sensitivity/specificity of orbital MR was 83.3/16.7% for the detection of active NSOI. In conclusion, orbital imaging is accurate for the diagnosis of IgG4, NSOI, and TED. Further studies with a large number of cases are needed to confirm this finding, especially with regard to uncommon diseases. Orbital CT showed moderate sensitivity and good specificity for identifying active TED.

Abstract
Non-specific orbital inflammation (NSOI) is a noninfectious inflammatory condition of the orbit. Although it is generally considered the most common diagnosis derived from an orbital biopsy, it is a diagnosis of exclusion, meaning that the diagnosis requires exclusion of a systemic process or another identifiable etiology of orbital inflammation. The clinical diagnosis of NSOI is ill-defined, but it is typically characterized by acute orbital signs and symptoms, including pain, proptosis, periorbital edema, chemosis, diplopia, and less commonly visual disturbance. NSOI poses a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge: The clinical presentations and histological findings are heterogeneous, and there are no specific diagnostic criteria or treatment guidelines. The etiology and pathogenesis of NSOI are poorly understood. Here we recapitulate our current clinical understanding of NSOI, with an emphasis on the most recent findings on clinical characteristics, imaging findings, and treatment outcomes. Furthermore, gene expression profiling of NSOI and its implications are presented and discussed.

Abstract
: Objective: To elucidate the clinical features of ocular motility and the risk factors for recurrence in idiopathic orbital myositis. METHODS The medical records of 31 patients diagnosed with idiopathic orbital inflammation between 2003 and 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. All patients were initially treated with corticosteroids. Treatment outcome and ocular motility were noted. RESULTS Twenty-six patients (84%) had unilateral involvement and five patients (16%) were bilateral. Of the 31 patients, 22 patients (71%) showed ocular motility limitation. The mean grading scale of extraocular muscle (EOM) limitation was -1.65 ± 1.80. EOM limitation was found in the same direction of the most affected muscle in 14 patients (64%), while 8 patients (36%) showed duction limitation in the opposite direction. Nine patients (35%) suffered from recurrence. Recurrence was more likely to occur in patients with multiple muscle involvement (p < 0.001). The interval to relapse of symptoms after discontinuation of steroids was significantly shorter in patients with multiple recurrences compared to those with a single recurrence (1.8 ± 0.8 weeks versus 6.0 ± 1.4 weeks, p = 0.020). CONCLUSIONS Idiopathic orbital myositis showed variable degrees of ocular motility limitation, and limitation in the same direction of the action of the affected muscle was more frequent. Recurrent myositis was more likely to have multiple muscle involvement. Rapid relapse of symptoms after discontinuation of steroids was a significant indicator of multiple recurrences.

Abstract
The occurrence of orbital compartment syndrome is a rare and unusual complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Patients will present with symptoms of ocular pain and diplopia and visible signs of proptosis. The condition is considered an ophthalmological emergency because the myositis involving the ocular muscles can cause irrevocable damage to the retina and optic disk, potentially leading to blindness. We report a case of a young African American male who developed orbital myositis with compartment syndrome as his initial manifestation of SLE. The patient underwent an emergent orbital decompression, followed by prompt initiation of immunosuppressant medications. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a case of myositis secondary to SLE complicated by compartment syndrome of the orbit.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW "Double vision" is a commonly encountered concern in neurologic practice; the experience of diplopia is always sudden and is frequently a cause of great apprehension and potential disability for patients. Moreover, while some causes of diplopia are benign, others require immediate recognition, a focused diagnostic evaluation, and appropriate treatment to prevent vision- and life-threatening outcomes. A logical, easy-to-follow approach to the clinical evaluation of patients with diplopia is helpful in ensuring accurate localization, a comprehensive differential diagnosis, and optimal patient care. This article provides a foundation for formulating an approach to the patient with diplopia and includes practical examples of developing the differential diagnosis, effectively using confirmatory examination techniques, determining an appropriate diagnostic strategy, and (where applicable) providing effective treatment. RECENT FINDINGS Recent population-based analyses have determined that diplopia is a common presentation in both ambulatory and emergency department settings, with 850,000 such visits occurring annually. For patients presenting to an outpatient facility, diagnoses are rarely serious. However, potentially life-threatening causes (predominantly stroke or transient ischemic attack) can be encountered. In patients presenting with diplopia related to isolated cranial nerve palsy, immediate neuroimaging can often be avoided if an appropriate history and examination are used to exclude worrisome etiologies. SUMMARY Binocular diplopia is most often due to a neurologic cause. The onset of true "double vision" is debilitating for most patients and commonly prompts immediate access to health care services as a consequence of functional impairment and concern for worrisome underlying causes. Although patients may seek initial evaluation through the emergency department or from their primary care/ophthalmic provider, elimination of an ocular cause will not infrequently result in the patient being referred for neurologic consultation. A logical, localization-driven, and evidence-based approach is the most effective way to arrive at the correct diagnosis and provide the best outcome for the patient.

Abstract
Non-Hodgkin orbital lymphoma (NHOL) and idiopathic orbital inflammation (IOI) are common orbital conditions with largely unknown pathophysiology. To investigate the immune cell composition of these diseases, we performed standardized 29 parameter flow cytometry phenotyping in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 18 NHOL patients, 21 IOI patients, and 41 unaffected controls. Automatic gating by FlowSOM revealed decreased abundance of meta-clusters containing dendritic cells in patients, which we confirmed by manual gating. A decreased percentage of (HLA-DR+ CD303+ CD123+ ) plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) in the circulation of IOI patients and decreased (HLA-DR+ CD11c+ CD1c+ ) conventional dendritic cells (cDC) type-2 for IOI patients were replicated in an independent cohort of patients and controls. Meta-analysis of both cohorts demonstrated that pDCs are also decreased in blood of NHOL patients and highlighted that the decrease in blood cDC type-2 was specific for IOI patients compared to NHOL or controls. Deconvolution-based estimation of immune cells in transcriptomic data of 48 orbital biopsies revealed a decrease in the abundance of pDC and cDC populations within the orbital microenvironment of IOI patients. Collectively, these data suggest a previously underappreciated role for dendritic cells in orbital disorders.

Abstract
Refractory idiopathic orbital inflammation (IOI) represents a management challenge due to its significant proportion of treatment failures. Currently, there are no established guidelines for recalcitrant IOI and majority of immunosuppressive agents have resulted in variable outcomes. Advancements of plasmapheresis therapy can play a significant role in ophthalmological diseases. This treatment has shown to produce a satisfactory therapeutic response in immune-mediated neurological conditions. In this case report, we share our successful experience with the use of plasmapheresis therapy in a patient with recalcitrant IOI.

Abstract
Non-Hodgkin orbital lymphoma (NHOL) and idiopathic orbital inflammation (IOI) are common orbital conditions with largely unknown pathophysiology that can be difficult to diagnose. In this study we aim to identify serum miRNAs associated with NHOL and IOI. We performed OpenArray® miRNA profiling in 33 patients and controls. Differentially expressed miRNAs were technically validated across technology platforms and replicated in an additional cohort of 32 patients and controls. We identified and independently validated a serum miRNA profile of NHOL that was remarkably similar to IOI and characterized by an increased expression of a cluster of eight miRNAs. Pathway enrichment analysis indicated that the miRNA-cluster is associated with immune-mediated pathways, which we supported by demonstrating the elevated expression of this cluster in serum of patients with other inflammatory conditions. The cluster contained miR-148a, a key driver of B-cell tolerance, and miR-365 that correlated with serum IgG and IgM concentrations. In addition, miR-29a and miR-223 were associated with blood lymphocyte and neutrophil populations, respectively. NHOL and IOI are characterized by an abnormal serum miRNA-cluster associated with immune pathway activation and linked to B cell and neutrophil dysfunction.

Abstract
Almost 50% of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) exhibit at least one extra-intestinal manifestation in their lifetime. Extra-intestinal manifestations of IBD are often associated with the intestinal disease activity, reducing the quality of life of the patient but rarely leading to fatal complications. Musculoskeletal involvement is the most frequent extra-intestinal manifestation of patients with IBD but this rarely occurs before IBD is diagnosed. They are manifested in various forms, such as arthropathy, fibromyalgia, and osteoporosis. Therefore, a multidisciplinary team approach including gastroenterologists and rheumatologists are necessary for optimal treatment. This review focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal manifestations of IBD from the perspectives of rheumatologists who can assist gastroenterologists.

Abstract
Background Orbital inflammatory diseases are a heterogenic group of conditions that often entail a difficult diagnostic process and many patients are treatment resistant. Inflammatory diseases can be visualized by Zirconium-89-labelled rituximab PET-CT (89Zr-rituximab PET/CT). In this study, we describe our experience and possible potential of the 89Zr-rituximab PET/CT for diagnostic and therapeutic management of refractory orbital inflammation. Results Retrospectively, 89Zr-rituximab uptake was assessed and related to clinical data. The main outcome measures were the characteristics of the scan and the clinical relation of uptake with the diagnostic process and treatment effectivity. Twelve patients with thyroid eye disease (TED) and suspected idiopathic orbital inflammation (IOI) were scanned. Six patients had a strong 89Zr-rituximab uptake and showed a focal distribution within the lesion. Four patients (one TED, three IOI) responded well to rituximab treatment after a positive scan. 89Zr-rituximab PET/CT was essential to the diagnosis of optic nerve meningioma in one patient. Conclusion 89Zr-rituximab PET/CT has the potential to be a powerful tool for the detection of B cell-mediated disease within the orbit and ocular adnexa. This technique can be a valuable addition for diagnosing diseases around the eye and can potentially predict rituximab treatment response in patients with refractory inflammation.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the clinical characteristics, histopathology, and treatment outcomes in adult and pediatric patients with nonspecific orbital inflammation (NSOI). Methods This retrospective study evaluates 76 patients with NSOI. The patients were categorized in 9 groups according to the site of involvement and histopathology results. These groups included: anterior involvement, dacryoadenitis, myositis, perineural involvement, acute fat involvement, focal mass, orbital apex involvement, diffuse sclerosing form, and multiple tissue involvement. The course of the disease was categorized as acute, subacute, or chronic. The cases with symptom duration of less than 1 week were classified as acute, 1 week to 1 month as subacute, and more than 1 month as chronic. Results 36 (47.4%) patients were males. The mean age was 41.68 ± 17.62 (6-75) years. The most common signs and symptoms were periorbital pain, periorbital edema, decreased ocular movements or diplopia, and conjunctival injection. The most common group was dacryoadenitis in 29 (38.1%) cases. The most common form of disease was the acute involvement (50% of patients). Most of the patients were treated by oral corticosteroids. Duration of follow-up was 7.17 ± 6.26 months. Recurrence occurred in 9 (11.8%) of patients during the follow-up period. Conclusions This study presents a new categorization in which multiple tissue involvements were separated. Some of the NSOI features differ between adults and children. In most patients, treatment especially with corticosteroids, resolves the clinical findings.

Abstract
PURPOSE Orbital inflammation can be idiopathic or in the context of a specific disease and it can involve different anatomical orbital structures. On imaging, inflammatory disease is frequently mistaken for infection and malignant tumors, and its underlying cause is often not determined. Through this article we aim to improve orbital inflammation diagnosis and underlying inflammatory diseases recognition. METHODS The imaging protocols and characteristics of orbital inflammation were reviewed. RESULTS A decision tree for the evaluation of these patients is provided. First, a combination of clinical and radiological clues is used to recognize inflammation, in particular to differentiate it both from orbital infection and tumor. Subsequently, different radiological patterns are recognized, often allowing the differentiation of the several orbital inflammatory diseases. CONCLUSION The use of adequate imaging protocols and subsequent evaluation allow the recognition of an orbital lesion as inflammatory and the diagnosis of the underlying inflammatory disease. All in all, a proper treatment can be established, and at times, a biopsy can be avoided.

Abstract
A 69-year-old woman suffering from exophthalmos and facial pain came to us referred for aetiological diagnosis of exophthalmos. Orbital MRI showed thinned extrinsic ocular musculature, intraconal fat infiltration, retro-ocular compression and thickening of maxillary and sphenoid sinus walls. She had been suffering from diabetes insipidus for the last 7 years. During our diagnosis process, she presented signs of cardiac tamponade. Transthoracic heart ultrasound revealed large pericardial effusion and a heterogeneous mass that compressed the right ventricle. No osteosclerotic lesions on appendicular bones were present. Pericardiocentesis temporarily controlled tamponade and corticoid therapy temporarily abated exophthalmos. Pericardiectomy definitively resolved tamponade. Histological examination of pericardial tissue was conclusive of Erdheim-Chester disease. Exophthalmos responded to pegylated interferon-alpha-2a. Facial bone pain disappeared after zoledronic acid and interferon treatment. During interferon therapy, the patient suffered from a severe generalised desquamative exanthema that slowly resolved after discontinuing interferon. Diabetes insipidus remains controlled with desmopressin.

Abstract
Cutaneous histiocytoid carcinoma can occur as a primary tumor of the periocular region. Morphologically similar histiocytoid carcinomas arising as primary tumors of the breast have a predilection for orbital metastases. They can occasionally contain regions with prominent vacuolated cytoplasm and minimal nuclear atypia, which mimic benign histiocytic lesions. Differentiating nonneoplastic, primary neoplastic, and metastatic histiocytoid lesions involving the periorbita can be challenging for both the clinician and the pathologist, and this distinction has management implications. Herein, we present 3 cases to illustrate the challenges of diagnosing periocular histiocytoid carcinoma.

Abstract
Orbital inflammatory disease is a rare ophthalmic manifestation of Crohn's disease. Inflammation is characteristically nonspecific, involving one or multiple structures of the orbit. Mechanisms of disease and optimal methods of treatment are poorly understood. The aim of this report is to present 3 cases of orbital involvement in Crohn's disease. A retrospective case note review of patients with orbital inflammatory disease and Crohn's disease was performed at our academic center to determine the clinical, imaging, and histopathologic features of this condition and its relationship to intestinal Crohn's disease. Three patients were identified with orbital inflammatory manifestations complicating Crohn's disease. All patients described were women with active intestinal disease and had a history of treatment with immunosuppressive therapies. Similarities were observed in clinical presentations with variance noted in radiologic and histopathologic findings. In all cases, symptoms improved with oral corticosteroids or nonsteroidal drugs in combination with anti-tumor necrosis factor agents. Inflammatory bowel disease-related orbital complications are rare but potentially vision-threatening. It is important to consider mimics of orbital inflammatory disease such as systemic inflammatory disease, malignancy, congenital malformations, infection, and trauma when formulating a comprehensive differential diagnosis. Therapeutic intervention is directed toward preservation of vision and orbital function and reducing the acute inflammatory process. Corticosteroids are typically the initial treatment of choice for moderate-to-severe disease, although several classes of immunomodulatory agents have been variably useful in treating this condition. Heightened awareness and close cooperation between gastroenterologists and ophthalmologists are mandatory.

Abstract
Orbital apex disorders include orbital apex syndrome, superior orbital fissure syndrome and cavernous sinus syndrome. These disorders result from various etiologies, including trauma, neoplastic, developmental, infectious, inflammatory as well as vascular causes. In the past, these have been described separately based on anatomical locations of disease process; however, these three disorders share similar causes, diagnostic evaluation and management strategies. The etiology is diverse and management is directed to the causative process. This imaging review summarizes the pertinent anatomy of the orbital apex and illustrates representative pathological processes that may affect this region. The purpose of this review is to provide an update on the current status of diagnostic imaging and management of patients with orbital apex disorders.

Abstract
Neuro-ophthalmology is a field combining neurology and ophthalmology that studies diseases that affect the visual system and the mechanisms that control eye movement and pupil function. Imaging tests make it possible to thoroughly assess the relevant anatomy and disease of the structures that make up the visual pathway, the nerves that control eye and pupil movement, and the orbital structures themselves. This article is divided into three sections (review of the anatomy, appropriate imaging techniques, and evaluation of disease according to clinical symptoms), with the aim of providing useful tools that will enable radiologists to choose the best imaging technique for the differential diagnosis of patients' problems to reach the correct diagnosis of their disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report new cases of orbital inflammatory syndrome (OIS) post group A streptococcal (GAS) infection and review the literature. METHODS A retrospective case series of patients with OIS post GAS infection seen in our clinic (from January 2015 to December 2016) and review of additional patients from the literature. RESULTS A total of nine patients with OIS post GAS infection were included in the study (four patients seen in our clinic and five from previous literature); seven females and two males, three children (under the age of 16), and six adults. Eight patients (89%) presented with a single rectus muscle (5 medial, 3 lateral) myositis, and one (11%) presented with posterior scleritis and diffuse OIS. CONCLUSIONS Although there are very few reports on OIS post GAS infection, it may be more common than previously thought and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with orbital inflammation.

Abstract
Orbital inflammatory pseudotumor is an infrequent lesion that may mimic malignancy and may be associated with autoimmune disease. Orbital pseudotumor is in the differential in any patient with an orbital mass, especially in the setting of chronic infection or immunosuppression. This HIV‐positive patient presented with chronic sinusitis and orbital pseudotumor.

Abstract
IgG4-related disease is a systemic, inflammatory disorder typically involving multiple organ systems. Several eponymous conditions described previously in the clinical and radiology literature are now recognised to be part of the IgG4-related disease spectrum. This includes multiple manifestations in the head and neck region, which are the subject of this review. Imaging can occasionally suggest the specific diagnosis of IgG4 disease. More commonly, it will be included in a limited differential diagnosis that requires clarification with the aid of image-guided biopsy. There are strict histopathological criteria for the diagnosis of IgG4-related disease.
