A 7-year-old female presented with left upper eyelid swelling following pars plana deep vitrectomy and silicone oil injection 1 year before admission. The left upper eyelid had mechanical ptosis and on palpation there was a lobulated mobile mass in the lateral portion of eyelid. Computed topography scan showed multiple isodense masses with silicone oil in vitreous in the eyelid and orbit; histopathology after excisional biopsy proved the silicone oil migration. Silicone oil migration followed by vitrectomy may be due to leakage from the site of initial wounds or vitrectomy ports. It is important to suspect extraocular silicone oil migration in patients who presented with eyelid mass-like lesions with a history of silicone oil injection following pars plana deep vitrectomy.

Purpose: To report a satisfactory clinical outcome of hemorrhagic retinal macrocyst with retinal detachment after pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil injection. Case summary: A 33-year-old man visited our clinic with a 1-week history of visual disturbance in his left eye. His ocular and medical history were unremarkable, and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in the left eye was 20/40. Fundoscopic examination of the left eye showed a hemorrhagic retinal macrocyst that was well-demarcated, semi-transparent, dome-shaped, and larger than 8 disc diameters at the superonasal location, with macular-off retinal detachment. B-scan ultrasonography also confirmed the presence of an intra-retinal cystic lesion with internal mobile echogenic signals representing blood. The patient underwent 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy, barrier laser photocoagulation around the retinal tear and boundary of the cyst, and silicone oil injection, without any other additional procedures for the hemorrhagic retinal macrocyst. After the surgery, the patient stayed in the face down position for two weeks. Three months postoperatively, a completely collapsed hemorrhagic retinal macrocyst with successful retinal reattachment was observed. Six months later, the BCVA in the left eye had improved to 20/30. One year later, even after silicon oil removal, the collapsed hemorrhagic retinal macrocyst and reattached retina remained stable.Conclusions: A hemorrhagic retinal macrocyst with retinal detachment was successfully treated with pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil tamponade.

Purpose: Silicone oil (SO) is often used as an intraocular tamponade in repairs of retinal detachments. It may be associated with complications such as cataract, glaucoma, keratopathy, subretinal migration of oil, fibrous epiretinal and sub retinal proliferations, and oil emulsification. The purpose of this report is to describe a rare phenomenon of intraocular silicone oil migration into the cerebral ventricles, which may later be mistaken for intraventricular hemorrhages on neuroimaging. Methods: Case report with literature review. Results: A patient with a history of retinal detachment repair with intraocular SO presented with headaches. Neuroimaging revealed SO migration to the cerebral ventricles. The patient was treated conservatively with symptom management and headaches resolved. Conclusions: We present a case of intraocular SO migration to the cerebral ventricles and review the current literature. We also propose two mechanisms for this phenomenon.

A 24 years lady was scheduled for tonsillectomy for recurrent tonsillitis had anaphylaxis and asystole before extubation, she was revived successfully.She had no known history of allergy and exposure to anesthetic agents and was classified as an American Society of Anesthesiologists, ASA I. In the operating theatre, her baseline vitals were unremarkable and remained hemodynamically stable on receiving antibiotic and anesthetic drugs. The anesthetic course remained uneventful throughout the surgery. Upon removal of surgical drapes, upper eyelid swelling was noted, that rapidly progressed to facial area within minutes, and she developed cardiac arrest which was managed with standard protocol and resuscitated successfully.

A 30-year-old male, who underwent previous pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil tamponade due to endogenous endophthalmitis originated from Klebsiella liver abscess, was referred for evisceration. At 2 months after vitrectomy with silicon oil tamponade, conjunctival chemosis and ocular pain were aggravated. Diffuse eyelid swelling and large subconjunctival mass with lipid droplets were noted. On MRI examination, subconjunctival mass and intra- and extraconal orbital mass around superior rectus muscle were observed. Excision of subconjunctival and orbital mass was performed. Histopathologic examination showed multiple silicone oil vacuoles surrounded by foreign body giant cells and fibrosis, which confirmed silicone oil granuloma. In a patient with suspicious melting sclera in diseases such as endophthalmitis, large silicone oil granuloma may be complicated in a rapid fashion after intravitreal silicone oil tamponade due to silicone oil leakage.

Purpose To report the surgical success of vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade in the treatment of retinal detachment associated with giant retinal tears due to various factors. Methods We retrospectively evaluated 21 eyes of 21 patients with retinal tears 90° or greater that underwent vitrectomy, with injection of perfluorocarbon liquids and silicone oil tamponade. Eight eyes (38.1%) had previous ocular surgery (4 aphakia-pseudophakia, 4 pars plana vitrectomy), 4 eyes (19.0%) had a history of trauma (blunt injuries in 2 and penetrating injury in 2), 3 (14.3%) had high myopia. Six eyes (28.6%) had no known condition predisposing to development of giant retinal tear. Results Retinal attachment was obtained in 17 (80.5%) of 21 eyes, with a mean follow-up of 12.5 months. Visual acuity improved in 15 eyes (71.4%). Conclusions Pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade proved highly effective in giant retinal tears in terms of anatomical and functional results.

Abstract Sympathetic Ophthalmia (SO) is a rare disease that presents as a bilateral, diffuse, granulomatous panuveitis. Sympathetic Ophthalmia is a clinical diagnosis with history of penetrating ocular injury in the inciting eye and presence of panuveitis in the sympathizing eye. Though early enucleation is believed to minimize the risk, there have been reports of SO even after enucleation of inciting eyes. The possible association between vitrectomy and SO has been initially proposed by Gass [9] and later studied extensively in a large cohort in the UK with an estimated SO risk of 1 in 799 vitrectomies [11]. There have been several case series and reports of SO following vitrectomy, however only three documented cases of SO following vitrectomy without use of silicone oil. These cases demonstrated an onset of SO ranging between 4 weeks to 2 months. We present a patient with SO in the sympathizing eye presenting 16 days after an uncomplicated 23-gauge (23G) sutureless pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) without the use of silicone oil.
