2023年11月8日 · Cicatricial entropion arises from contracture of the posterior lamella of the eyelid. It may occur in response to chemical insult, infection, inflammatory disease, surgery, or trauma. Inward misdirection of eyelashes towards the globe may lead to ocular surface...

An early form of cicatricial entropion is Meibomian Gland Inversion(MGI) commonly encountered in chronic meibomitis or aggressive electroepilation with scarring of the posteior lamella. Cicatricial entropion may also be the result of trauma and can be iatrogenic from surgery or radiation therapy.

2018年6月27日 · Cicatricial entropion must be differentiated from more common senile, or spastic entropion. Cicatricial entropion requires procedures to overcoming scarring contraction of the eyelid margin using full-thickness rotational surgery such as the Wies procedure or the...

The management of cicatricial entropion represents a therapeutic challenge especially when the underlying causes are progressive cicatricial diseases that affect the ocular surface. The authors aimed to report long-term efficacy of labial mucous membrane graft …

2022年11月8日 · Cicatricial entropion is a commonly acquired eyelid malposition characterized by tarsoconjunctival scarring, which creates an imbalance between the anterior and posterior eyelid lamellae, resulting in an inward rotation or angulation of the posterior lid margin, which may be accompanied by trichiasis, distichiasis, or conjunctival epithelial ...

2015年9月14日 · Entropion is categorized based on etiology as involutional, cicatricial, or spastic, with involutional being the most common. The symptoms of entropion are related to abrasive contact between the keratinized skin of the inverted eyelid margin (and associated eyelashes) and the corneal and conjunctival surfaces.

Anterior lamellar recession combined with mucous membrane grafting achieves good cicatricial entropion correction except in eyes with chemical injury. The eyelid margins in these eyes have persistent inflammation, and fibrosis involving lash follicles.

2023年5月26日 · The most common cause of entropion of the lower eyelid is involutional, while in the upper eyelid it is cicatricial. The risk of developing entropion increases with increasing age. This is particularly true for involutional entropion, which occurs secondary to age-related weakening and laxity of the muscles and tendons. As we age, the canthal ...

Cicatricial Entropion in Chronic Cicatrizing Conjunctivitis: Potential Pathophysiologic Mechanisms and Long-Term Outcomes of a Modified Technique.

2008年6月1日 · We report the results of 17 patients with cicatricial entropion treated successfully with anterior tarsal wedge resection and acellular dermis insertion in the split lid margin. The surgical technique is described.
