Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate clinical manifestations and prognoses in pediatric patients (≤12 years old) with ocular melanoma. METHODS This was a retrospective, multicenter cohort study with individual participant data (IPD) meta-analysis pooling available published cases, and unpublished cases from an international collaboration of seven ocular oncology centers. RESULTS There were 133 eyes of 133 pediatric patients with choroidal or ciliary body (n = 66 [50%]), iris (n = 33 [25%]), conjunctival (n = 26 [19%]), and eyelid (n = 8 [6%]) melanoma. Overall, the mean patient age at presentation was 7 years (median, 8; range, 1-12 years), with 63 males (49%). The mean age by tumor site was 6.50 ± 3.90, 7.44 ± 3.57, 9.12 ± 2.61, and 5.63 ± 2.38 years, for choroid/ciliary body, iris, conjunctiva, and eyelid melanoma, respectively (P = 0.001). Association with ocular melanocytosis was seen in 15%, 11%, 4%, and 0%, respectively (P = 0.01). Frequency of ocular melanoma family history did not vary by tumor site (7%, 17%, 9% and 12%, resp. [P = 0.26]). After mean follow-up of 74, 85, 50, and 105 months (P = 0.65), metastasis was seen in 12%, 9%, 19%, and 13% of choroid/ciliary body, iris, conjunctiva, and eyelid melanoma, respectively. Death was reported in 5%, 3%, 8%, and 0%, respectively, with survival analysis indicating higher mortality in choroidal/ciliary body and conjunctival melanoma patients. CONCLUSIONS Ocular melanoma in the pediatric population is rare, with unique clinical features and outcomes. Iris melanoma accounts for about one-third of pediatric uveal melanoma cases.

Abstract
Objective Medial eyelid tumours may result in the loss of the proximal lacrimal system during staged excision and delayed reconstruction, to achieve tumour margin clearance. The remnant canaliculus was marsupialised during reconstruction. The aim was to understand how many patients experienced symptomatic epiphora as a consequence of this. Methods and analysis A retrospective study including patients over a 15-year period with medial eyelid tumours, where the proximal lacrimal system was sacrificed to achieve tumour margin clearance. Included were all who had marsupialisation of the remnant distal stump as part of their delayed reconstruction. All who had pre-existing epiphora were excluded. The primary objective was the rate of epiphora following the procedure. A systematic literature review of postoperative epiphora occurring in patients with lid tumours requiring lacrimal system injury/sacrifice during tumour excision. Results There were 22 eyes (22 patients). All were basal cell carcinomas except for 1 (4.5%) tarsal conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma. All cases involved the lower lid. There were two (9.1%) patients who developed epiphora. One patient underwent a superior three-snip punctoplasty, botulinum toxin to the lacrimal gland and conjunctivodacryocystorhinostomy with Lester Jones tube insertion. The other patient was not overly troubled and did not require further treatment. The literature review showed the median postoperative rate of epiphora in these patients was 12.5% (range 0%–100%). Conclusion Marsupialisation of the remnant canaliculus during delayed reconstruction is a straightforward and effective surgical option, which may help prevent postreconstruction epiphora when the proximal lacrimal system is sacrificed for tumour margin clearance. Trial registration number 10391.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Infantile capillary haemangiomas (IHs) are common, benign tumours that are self -limiting and generally found in the head and neck region. CASE We present a case of a three month old female baby who presented with a left upper eyelid capillary haemangioma because of which she could not lift the upper lid subjecting her to a high risk of stimulus- deprivation amblyopia. Treatment was provided in the form of an intralesional Triamcinolone acetate injection (40 mg/ml) under general anaesthesia, along with oral Propranolol (1 mg/kg body in 2 divided doses for the first two days, followed by 2 mg/kg in 2 divided doses for ten days (continued upto four months) and topical Timolol (0.5%) lid massage twice a day upto a period of six months. OBSERVATION No adverse effects were reported and a marked reduction in size of the tumor was observed thereby providing an immediate relief to the child. CONCLUSION Hence a combination therapy using intralesional steroids, along with oral propranolol and topical timolol over the lesion has proven to be very effective in providing early response.

Simulated patients and their reality: An inquiry into theory and method. Soc Sci Med 2021; 300:114571.

Abstract
Simulated standardized patients (SSP) have emerged as close to a ‘gold standard’ for measuring the quality of clinical care. This method resolves problems of patient mix across healthcare providers and allows care to be benchmarked against preexisting standards. Nevertheless, SSPs are not real patients. How, then, should data from SSPs be considered relative to clinical observations with ‘real’ patients in a given health system? Here, we reject the proposition that SSPs are direct substitutes for real patients and that the validity of SSP studies therefore relies on their ability to imitate real patients. Instead, we argue that the success of the SSP methodology lies in its counterfactual manipulations of the possibilities available to real careseekers – especially those paths not taken up by them – through which real responses can be elicited from real providers. Using results from a unique pilot study where SSPs returned to providers for follow-ups when asked, we demonstrate that the SSP method works well to elicit responses from the provider through conditional manipulations of SSP behavior. At the same time, observational methods are better suited to understand what choices real people make, and how these can affect the direction of diagnosis and treatment. A combination of SSP and observational methods can thus help parse out how quality of care emerges for the “patient” as a shared history between care-seeking individuals and care providers. We assess how simulated standardized patients (SSPs) compare to ‘real’ patients. SSPs elicit real responses from providers for different counterfactual patients. However, SSPs are not informative of observed variation in patient behavior. SSPs illustrate how providers behave with different types of patients. Observation studies can complement SSPs by studying patient responses.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the relationship between age at presentation and outcomes of patients with periocular sebaceous gland carcinoma. METHODS Retrospective case series of 241 patients. RESULTS Of 241 cases, 29 (12%) were young adults (≤40 years), 122 (51%) were middle-aged adults (41-60 years), and 90 (37%) were older adults (>60 years). Based on the eighth edition of American Joint Committee on Cancer, most tumors belonged to T1 category (n = 78, 32%) on presentation. Wide excisional biopsy was the most common treatment modality (n = 183, 79%). There were no statistically significant differences in the clinical presentation, treatment approaches, and histopathology features amongst different age groups, except pagetoid spread which was higher in middle-aged adults (61%, p = 0.004). The incidence of tumor recurrence was higher in older age group compared to younger age groups, with 5-year, 10-year Kaplan-Meier estimate at 31%, 31% in young adults, 38%, 38% in middle-aged adults, and 45%, 100% in older adults (p = 0.03), respectively. The 10-year Kaplan-Meier estimate rate of locoregional lymph node metastasis, systemic metastasis, and death was higher in young adults (51%, 48%, and 48%, respectively) compared to middle-aged (30%, 17%, and 12%, respectively) and older adults (24%, 25%, and 27%, respectively), but the differences were not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS There is no difference in the clinical presentation of periocular sebaceous gland carcinoma based on age. However, the tumor recurrence rate is much higher in the older age group and death higher in younger patients despite the same treatment strategies in all age groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A space-occupying lesion of the eyelid in young adults is often a sign of an inflammation, a trauma or a benign neoplasm. The aim of this case report is to demonstrate a rare basal cell carcinoma, which presumably already arose in adolescence without further high-risk factors. METHODS A 28-year-old male patient presented for a second opinion on a painless swelling of the right lower eyelid. According to the patient's history the swelling had been present since the age of 16 years and originally resembled a molluscum contagiosum. An ophthalmologist in private practice made the diagnosis of a suspected trichoepithelioma. The extended patient history revealed a blood coagulation disorder. The clinical ophthalmological examination revealed a nodular space-occupying lesion with a border wall and telangiectasia. The further ophthalmological examination was bilaterally inconspicuous. Due to the suspicion of a malignant process, an operation was promptly carried out using local anesthesia with complete tumor excision and pedicled flap plasty as well as a histopathological investigation to confirm the diagnosis. RESULTS The histopathological investigation revealed underlying infiltrates of a basaloid tumor with bale-shaped trabecular growth, sometimes with peripheral palisading of the cells. The cells were predominantly monomorphic with isolated pleomorphic nuclei and sometimes enclosed mitoses. Immunohistochemically the cells were strongly positive for BerEP4 and negative for epithelial membrane antigen (EMA). The diagnosis of a nodular basal cell carcinoma of the right lower eyelid was made. All incision margins were free of tumor cells (R0 resection). In the dermatological screening no further manifestations were detected. CONCLUSION Despite the occurrence of a space-occupying lesion of the eyelid in a young adult patient and also with no further risk factors, in addition to an inflammatory event and a benign tumor, a malignant disease, such as a basal cell carcinoma should also be taken into consideration. A tissue biopsy or complete excision with subsequent histological examination including an immunohistochemical analysis are essential for differentiation from other tumor entities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most frequent malignant epithelial tumor of the periocular area. The clinical and histological classification of periocular basal cell carcinoma (pBCC) is essential in order to establish the risk of recurrence and to compare the results of the treatment. Until now, there is no unitary histological classification of pBCC. AIM The aim of this study is to identify the demographic, clinical and histopathological characteristics of adult patients with pBCC, in order to obtain useful data for comparison in other investigations and to identify the histological origin of this eyelid tumor, as there are only hypothesis on this issue. MATERIALS AND METHODS A descriptive retrospective study was conducted on a series of 39 consecutive patients over the age of 20, who were surgically treated for pBCC in the 2nd Ophthalmology Clinic of the "Prof. Dr. Nicolae Oblu" Emergency Clinical Hospital from Iaşi, Romania, over an 11-year period (July 2007-February 2018). The analyzed data were the following: date of resection, patient age at resection, gender, tumor location, histological subtype, and immunohistochemical (IHC) expression patterns of anti-cytokeratin (CK) antibodies (anti-CK AE1∕AE3, anti-CK5∕6, anti-CK7, anti-CK17, anti-CK19, anti-CK20) and anti-epithelial membrane antigen (EMA) antibody. RESULTS A total of 39 histopathologically diagnosed cases of pBCC were evaluated. The mean age at resection was of 66 years (range: 26-87 years). As for gender, 17 (43.6%) were male patients, with a mean age of 64.84 years (range: 26-78 years) and 22 (56.4%) were female patients, with a mean age of 66.68 years (range: 46-87 years). The pBCC occurred on the right side in 18 (46.2%) cases and on the left in 21 (53.8%) cases. Of all removed specimens, 24 (61.53%) involved the lower eyelid, seven (17.94%) the medial canthus, five (12.82%) the upper eyelid, and three (7.62%) lacked the specification of the site. The most common histological subtype was nodular, accounting for 26 (66.7%) cases. Adenoid BCC was identified in four (10.3%) cases, and morpheaform in one (2.6%) case. Squamous differentiation (basosquamous subtype) was identified in eight (20.5%) cases. The IHC profile of pBCC included: strong immunopositivity for CK AE1∕AE3, and CK17 all histological subtypes, and CK5∕6 positivity only in squamous differentiation areas. No immunopositivity was identified for CK19, CK20, and EMA IHC staining. CONCLUSIONS Our retrospective study indicates that most of pBCCs developed particularly in elderly female patients and tumors were located in the lower eyelid with a left side and lower eyelid preferences. Most of our pBCC cases were histologically classified as nodular subtype, and morpheaform and basosquamous form affected mostly the lower eyelid. pBCC IHC profile showed a strong immunopositivity for CK17, thus suggesting that the origin of this cancer is in the follicular germinative cells. We can conclude that our results showed a demographic, clinical, histological, and IHC profile which seems to be representative for Central and Eastern European countries, maybe due to the same genetic predisposition and environmental factors.

Abstract
Vemurafenib is a selective BRAF kinase inhibitor recently proven to improve rates of overall and progression-free survival in patients with BRAF-V600-mutant metastatic melanoma. The most common adverse effects of this targeted therapy are arthralgia, fatigue, and cutaneous lesions, including alopecia, photosensitivity, pruritus, hand-foot skin reactions, squamous cell carcinomas, keratoacanthomas, warty dyskeratomas and verrucous keratosis. Less frequently, cases of panniculitis of varying severity have been reported in patients receiving vemurafenib. In this report, we describe a patient who developed asymptomatic nodules on her legs, with complete, spontaneous resolution, while on vemurafenib therapy. A causal relationship was considered likely because of the timing of occurrence and the absence of other potential causes after extensive assessment. Vemurafenib therapy was continued at full dosage and no recurrences were observed. We believe that management of lobular panniculitis associated with selective BRAF inhibitors should vary according to the clinical presentation, degree of systemic involvement, and presence of joint inflammation. Physicians should be aware of this emergent side effect. Treatment discontinuation should be considered on a case-by-case basis because the condition may resolve spontaneously.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the methods to establish a xenografted model of meibomian gland carcinoma in nude mice, then find the best method to establish the animal model. The last purpose of this study was to establish a suitable animal model for clinic therapy and basic research of meibomian gland carcinoma. METHODS Small pieces of meibomian gland carcinoma tissue from four patients were transplanted subcutaneously in the flanks of eight nude mice through a skin incision. Nature of transplantation tumor including formation, growth and size were observed. The transplanted tumors were stained with hematoxylin-eosin, Sudan III and Immunohistochemistry. RESULTS The human meibomian gland carcinoma tissue can survived in nude mice. The pathologic examination revealed that the transplanted tumor was arranged in mass. The tumor cells were round or multisided. The proportion of the nuclei and cytoplasm was imbalance. Nuclear division could be easily observed. The test of Sudan III was positive. Immunohistochemical observation: the results showed that both CK and EMA were positive. CONCLUSIONS The subcutaneously xenotransplanted tumor model of human meibomian gland carcinoma with tissue explant in nude mice was successfully established. The transplanted tumor maintained the properties of human meibomian gland carcinoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate histopathologic alterations of eyelid biopsy specimens from patients with floppy eyelid syndrome (FES) with special regard to elastic fiber content and ultrastructure as well as to the expression of elastin-degrading enzymes to elucidate the pathogenesis of this disorder. DESIGN Retrospective, interventional case series. PARTICIPANTS AND CONTROLS Eleven consecutive patients with FES and 10 age-matched control patients with basal cell carcinoma of the eyelid. METHODS Horizontal pentagonal eyelid resections of 16 upper lids were performed in 11 patients with FES. Full-thickness eyelid biopsy specimens from study and control patients were examined by light and transmission electron microscopy, semiquantitative morphometry, and immunohistochemistry using antibodies against matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, MMP-7, MMP-9, and MMP-12 and neutrophil elastase. RESULTS All patients treated with surgical horizontal eyelid shortening were asymptomatic at follow-up. Histopathologic analysis of the surgical specimens showed, apart from unspecific signs of chronic inflammation, a significant decrease in the amount of elastin within the tarsal plate and eyelid skin as compared with controls. Residual elastic fibers revealed an abnormal ultrastructure with a diminished elastin core. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated an increased immunoreactivity for elastolytic proteases, particularly MMP-7 and MMP-9, in areas of elastin depletion in FES specimens as compared with controls. CONCLUSIONS The findings indicate that upregulation of elastolytic enzymes, most probably induced by repeated mechanical stress, participates in elastic fiber degradation and subsequent tarsal laxity and eyelash ptosis in FES.

Abstract
This year, advances in the management of ocular adnexal lymphoid tumors have been based on the distinction between MALT and non-MALT lymphomas. MALT lymphomas have a more indolent course than non-MALT lymphomas, and in the conjunctiva a more conservative approach can be taken than has been recommended previously. In the orbit the likelihood of progression to systemic disease seems high, even with MALT lymphomas, and treatment with radiation is still recommended in all cases. The REAL classification system has replaced the Rappaport and Lukes-Collins system for classifying ocular adnexal lymphomas. Most ocular adnexal lymphomas are composed of neoplastic B-lymphocytes. Additional cases of T-cell lymphoma involving the orbit and conjunctiva were reported in the literature this past year.

Abstract
Ocular melanomas are the most common intraocular malignancy in adults. The majority of ocular melanomas are choroidal melanomas. These tumors can be difficult to diagnose, especially when they are small. Documented growth of a lesion on serial examinations is the most important clinical feature favoring the diagnosis of a choroidal melanoma. Diagnostic studies including ultrasonography and angiography may be helpful in the diagnosis of these tumors. A number of treatment options are available for choroidal melanomas. These include photocoagulation, radiation therapy, local tumor resection, and enucleation.

Abstract
In cases of invasive conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma, three cases of deep corneal invasion and two cases of intraocular extension were found. Four cases showed orbital invasion, and one patient died of generalized metastases 18 months after diagnosis. The relatively low-grade nature of these lesions and their potential for local treatment is noted, but it is emphasized that careful clinical examination and close cooperation with the pathologist to ensure adequate evaluation of excised tissue are essential.
