ORBITAL DECOMPRESSION SURGERY COMBINED WITH OPEN SKY MULLER MUSCLE RESECTION IN THYROID RELATED ORBITOPATHY

In thyroid related orbitopathy (TRO) , after restoration of euthyroiidism and stabilsation of the orbitopathy , orbital decompression can be necessary. The problem is not only in great protrusion , unilateral or bilateral, but also in retraction of the upper eyelid. Upper eyelid lengthening in those patients is often tricky and results are somehow unpredictable. We present patients in whom we have performed orbital decompression surgery sec Olivari combined with open sky Muller muscle resection - simplified technique , which originally was introduced by Leo Korneef 1996. Intraorbital fat was removed through a transpalpebral incision to achieve decompression. The amount of fat was 6.0 cm3.
