    A modified continuous suturing technique for amniotic membrane fixation after chemical corneal injury: An octagonal graft
    (Galenos Publ House, 2022-10-01) Baykara, Mehmet; BAYKARA, MEHMET; Sarı, Esin Söğütlü; SÖĞÜTLÜ SARI, ESİN; Yurttaş, Ceren; YURTTAŞ, CEREN; Kırıştıoğlu, Mehmet Ömer; KIRIŞTIOĞLU, MEHMET ÖMER; Tıp Fakültesi; Oftalmoloji Ana Bilim Dalı; 0000-0002-5555-1649; JBU-3309-2023
    This case report aims to describe a modified continuous suturing technique for firm fixation of a human amniotic membrane graft in a patient with persistent epithelial defect (PED) after a chemical eye injury. As a result of this technique, the amniotic membrane (AM) was firmly fixed to the corneal surface with eight continuous and locked episcleral sutures that resembled an octagon graft. This technique was performed in a 14-year-old patient with PED after a chemical corneal burn. Three weeks after the surgery, the PED was completely healed. This simple continuous suturing technique can allow firm and stable fixation of AM grafts on the ocular surface in cases of PED after chemical burn. It may prevent early loss of the graft and facilitate corneal epithelial wound healing.

    Dumbbell-shaped congenital conjunctival cyst of the orbit
    (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2023-03-01) Karaman, Gülzade; Yazıcı, Bülent; Kırıştıoğlu, Mehmet Ömer; KIRIŞTIOĞLU, MEHMET ÖMER; Tıp Fakültesi; Göz Hastalıkları Ana Bilim Dalı; 0000-0001-8889-1933; AAA-5384-2020
    Congenital conjunctival cysts often occur in the medial orbit without adjacent bone destruction and have not been previously reported in a dumbbell configuration. A 46-year-old female patient presented with left proptosis and headache. A radiological study revealed a large, cystic, bilobed mass in the orbital-temporal area with an osseous defect in the lateral wall. A histological examination of the excised lesion showed that the cyst wall consisted of non-keratinized stratified epithelium with goblet cells. There was no recurrence during the follow-up. Of the previously reported 54 cases, only 1 had bone erosion due to a recurrent cyst in the frontal bone. Although rare, a primary conjunctival cyst can create a dumbbell-shaped lesion in the lateral orbit and temporal fossa.
