Abstract:
Objective:To observe the clinical effect of modified orbital septum fat release in the treatment of lower eyelid relaxation with lacrimal groove deformity.Methods:From January 2019 to August 2023, 52 patients with lower eyelid relaxation and lacrimal groove deformity were treated with the procedures of modified orbital septum fat release in the First People′s Hospital of Jiande, including 5 males and 47 females. The orbicularis oculi muscle supporting ligament was sutured and fixed at the periosteum of the lower edge of the orbit to achieve anatomical reduction. Suture fixation of the free edge of the orbital septum was performed at the edge of the supporting ligament in the modified orbital septum fat release method. Following-up for 6-12 months after surgery, the complications and satisfactory rate of patients were evaluated.Results:All the incision healed well with improved skin effect, and the incision scar were almost invisible. 52 patients were followed up from 6 to 12 months; 49 patients were satisfied and 2 patients were basically satisfied with their appearance, 1 patient was not satisfied with the result. No complications such as lower eyelid ectropion, lower eyelid retraction, or eyelid ball separation occurred.Conclusions:Modified orbital septum fat release is an effective method for correction of lower eyelid relaxation with lacrimal groove deformity.
