- Abstract
Introduction: Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy. This rare condition is a benign disease of unknown etiology. Bilateral orbital localization of RDD is rare., Observation: The authors report the case of a 6-year-old child who presented with bilateral orbital-palpebral masses associated with chronic cervical lymphadenopathy. There were no laboratory signs of inflammation. Serological and tuberculosis screening tests were negative. Histopathological examination of a lymph node biopsy established a diagnosis of Rosai-Dorfman disease. The patient underwent surgical excision of the orbital lesions followed by long-term corticosteroid therapy. A favorable course was observed, with no sign of recurrence after one year of follow-up., Conclusion: Rosai-Dorfman disease is very rare in its bilateral orbital presentation. Histopathological diagnosis remains challenging. In Africa, the presence of chronic oculo-palpebral tumor associated with or without cervical lymphadenopathy must raise the suspicion of Rosai-Dorfman disease after ruling out tuberculosis and lymphoma., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Masson SAS.

- Abstract
Objective: To describe the etiologies, clinical presentation and therapeutic management of neovascular glaucoma (NVG) in Senegalese patients., Patients and Methods: We retrospectively studied the records of patients followed for NVG between 1993 and 2016. We included eyes with Iridis rubeosis with or without ocular hypertension. We recorded age, sex, medical and ophthalmologic history, results of the eye examination, treatment modalities broken up into hospitalisation, procedural interventions and number of antiglaucoma medications prescribed. The data analysis was performed by epi-info 7., Results: Forty-eight eyes of 44 patients were included. The mean age was 59.7 years and sex ratio 2.1. Etiologies were type 2 diabetes in 31.8 % cases and central retinal vein occlusion in 16.6 % cases. All eyes were blind. Eye pain was present in 75 % of eyes, a limbal flush in 29.1 % of eyes and mydriasis in 31.25 % of eyes. Mean intraocular pressure was 49.7mmHg. Corneal edema occured in 54.1 % of eyes. Fundus examination showed proliferative retinopathy in 14.5 %. Treatment required hospitalisation for 43.75 % of patients. Therapeutic procedures were cyclocryoapplication for 31.25 % of eyes, retrobulbar xylo-alcohol injection for 14.5 % of eyes and panretinal laser photocoagulation (PRP) for 12.5 % eyes. Antiglaucoma preparations were used in dual therapy for 29 % of eyes, in triple therapy and quadruple therapy for 25 % of eyes each., Discussion: The etiologies are comparable to those described in the literature. The diagnosis was late and treatment limited by adverse economic conditions., Conclusion: NVG in Senegalese patients is an affection of men in their sixties. It is responsible for irreversible painful blindness for which treatment is difficult - thus the interest in prevention by strict monitoring and prompt treatment of any retinal ischemia., (Copyright © 2018 Elsevier Masson SAS.

- Abstract
Introduction: The purpose of our study was to evaluate in the short and medium term, intraocular pressure results after selective laser trabeculoplasty in black patients with chronic open angle glaucoma or isolated ocular hypertension., Materials and Methods: We conducted a retrospective study with a mean 12.5-month follow-up in black patients who underwent SLT. Inclusion criteria were: an open iridocorneal angle greater than or equal to Schaeffer grade 3, data recorded and available on trabecular pigmentation, data on SLT parameters available, and intraocular pressure by Goldmann applanation tonometry recorded.A positive result was defined as a post-laser IntraOcular Pressure (IOP) less than 21 mmHg after 1-month follow-up. The main motivation was the reduction of number of eye drops used. Performed first was a treatment of the inferior 180° (3:00-9:00), possibly supplemented by a second session at 15 days or 1 month if a pressure decrease was noted after the first session. IOP results were evaluated prior to SLT, immediately following SLT and then depending on the drop in pressure. Statistical analysis was performed using the EPI.info 7 software., Results: A total of 69 eyes of 40 patients treated with SLT were identified. The mean IOP prior to SLT was 18.3 mmHg ± 4. Our results showed 90% of patients who positively responded to the treatment (10% failure) with a mean IOP decrease of 2.3 ± 1 mmHg, that is 13%, by the second week. The mean pressure decrease continued to 4.78 ± 1 mmHg for patients (30%) in the group treated for 360°, that is 27% in the same period of time. SLT permitted discontinuation of a prostaglandin in 60% (42 cases). Eyes on triple-drug therapy went from 23 before SLT to 5 following SLT (a 26% decline), eyes on two medications went from 32 to 16 (24% decline). In result association tests, only pigmentation of the angle and visual field stage had a statistically significant probability., Discussion: In our experience, SLT is indicated in black patients to potentiate less effective treatments, to reduce the number of drops in order to limit side effects, but also to avoid or delay monotherapy treatment-naïve, hypertensive eyes., Conclusion: In the short and medium term, SLT brought about an IOP decrease in 90% of black patients, and discontinuation of a prostaglandin in 60% of our patients. In addition, the iridocorneal angle in blacks appears to be less pigmented than previously thought, and a protocol systematically treating 360° seems to provide better results., (Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Masson SAS.

- Abstract
Introduction: In this work, the authors aim to study clinical and epidemiological characteristics of ocular and orbital primary cancers in sub-Saharan African., Patients and Methods: This is a retrospective study over a period of 21 years, from 1984 to 2004, including all cases of ocular cancer, histologically proven after surgery of the globe or the orbit. For each patient, we studied the following parameters: age, sex, reason(s) for consultation, the affected eye, and histological result of the operative specimen. These data were collected by studying the departmental surgical registry, patient medical records and the tumor registry of the anatomicopathology laboratory of a tertiary care hospital in sub-Saharan Africa., Results: We collected data on 111 black patients, among whom 15 cases (13.5%) presented with bilateral involvement, for a total of 126 eyes. The sex ratio was 1.17. Presenting signs showed a predominance of leukocoria (30.2%) followed by proptosis (21.7%) and in third place, protruding conjunctival mass (10.8%). Retinoblastoma was found most frequently, representing 66.6% of the oculo-orbital tumors and 95.45% of the tumors of the globe; followed by epidermoid carcinoma, representing 15.08% of cases. Malignant melanoma was third most common, representing 4.76%, with 83% arising in the anterior uvea and 7% in the choroid. Basal cell carcinoma and rhabdomyosarcoma follow in fourth place. Basal cell carcinoma constituted half (50%) of the eyelid tumors. Rhabdomyosarcoma was the most common orbital tumor in our series (57%). Next were lymphomas with conjunctival localization (2.38%), acute leukemia with orbital localization (1.59%) and rare tumors, palpebral dermatofibrosarcoma (0.79%), an orbital angiosarcoma (0.79%), a glioblastoma of the globe (0.79%) and a malignant solitary fibrous tumor of the orbit (0.79%)., Conclusion: Ocular and orbital primary cancers in blacks remain tumors of the young, equally distributed between the sexes. Retinoblastoma is the most frequent, followed by epidermoid carcinoma. The globe is the preferential localization of these cancers., (Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)

- Abstract
Purpose: To measure the central corneal thickness (CCT) in Senegalese melanoderms with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and to determine its effect on visual impairment, intraocular pressure, optic nerve and perimetric damage., Patients and Methods: We studied retrospectively the records of patients followed for POAG between May and July 2012. We recorded CCT measured by ultrasonic pachymetry and results of the first clinical examinations, including best-corrected visual acuity (CVA), intraocular pressure (IOP) by Goldmann tonometry, cup-to-disc ratio (C/D), and visual fields by automated perimetry according to the classification of Hodapp., Results: Two hundred and thirty-four eyes of 117 patients were enrolled. Mean age was 56.53 ± 11.29 years and gender ratio was 2.77. Mean CCT was 525.40 ± 39.63 μm for all eyes, right and left (P=0.734). Women had a mean CCT of 521.20 ± 36.20 μm and men 526.91 ± 40.79 μm (P=0.332). Corneas were thinner in patients over 50 years (P=0.0047), in eyes having a CVA<3/10 (P=0.01) or a C/D ≥ 0.8 (P=0.043). CCT had no correlation with frequency of ocular hypertension (P=0.16) or advanced visual field defect (P=0.33)., Conclusion: CCT of glaucomatous Senegalese is independent of laterality and sex, but decreased with age. A thin cornea is a risk for visual loss and optic cup enlargement, thus the importance of systematic measurement of CCT., (Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)

- Abstract
Introduction: Mycetomas are pathological processes through which exogenous fungal or actinomycotic etiological agents produce grains. These etiological agents live in the soil and plants of endemic areas. They are introduced traumatically, primarily into the foot. The orbital location is rare., Observation: We report the case of a 17-year-old student admitted for progressive left proptosis over 2 years, following penetrating trauma by a fork in a rural setting. Examination revealed a heterogenous orbital mass with multiple fistulae, producing pus and black grains, and suggested, due to the color of the grains, a diagnosis of fungal mycetoma. MRI revealed a destructive process at the level of the lamina papracea of the ethmoid and the orbital floor. Anatomopathological examination confirmed the fungal nature of the infection, while culture in Sabouraud's medium was inconclusive. The outcome was favorable after exenteration and debridementof the ipsilateral maxillary sinus and nasal cavities, along with 4 months of ketoconazole. No recurrence has been observed for 14 months after surgery., Discussion: Mycetomas are endemic to northwest Africa. Most frequently located in the foot, they are seldom seen in the orbit. The color of the grains provides a clue as to the etiology. Black-grain mycetomas are always fungal and are treated surgically--essentially like cancer--as the persistence of a single grain will cause a recurrence., Conclusion: The orbital location of a mycetoma is rare. In the present case report, the concept of port of entry, the clinical appearance, and the color of the grains guided the diagnosis. The histological examination of the surgical specimen confirmed the diagnosis., (Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)

- Abstract
Purpose: To assess short and medium term outcomes of cataract surgery with intraocular lens implantation in Senegalese children less than fifteen years., Methods: From 1992 to 1997, 50 eyes of 40 children between the age of 5 months and 14 years, suffering from cataract were operated. Some of them were seen untill 2000. Twenty-seven cataracts were congenital, 19 were traumatic, 2 were from corticosteroid side effects, 1 after uveitis, and 1 had no determined cause. Thirty-one had manual extracapsular surgery and 19 ultrasound cataract surgery. They all have a standard single-piece PMMA intraocular lens of 21 to 22 diopters, 12.0-12.5mm long, under the ciliaris silcus (34 cases) or in the capsular bag (16). The results were noted in the first week, at one month, at 3 months, and after., Results: Exudative reactions were frequent in the anterior chamber: 20% of the eyes had such reactions during the operation, especially when a manual extracapsular extraction was performed, and 34% soon after operation. The reactions were generally revealed with one month of survey. Corticosteroids used before and after surgery reduced inflammation disorders but seemed to speed up the onset of secondary cataract. Posterior capsule opacification was observed in the first week after surgery. It increased from 45% at 3 months to 74% at 1 year and 100% after 3 years. Intraocular cristal lens implants are well tolerated with limited complications. Fifty-seven percent of the operated eyes we observed after 3 years had 30/60 or better visual acuity., Conclusion: Despite fairly frequent inflammation and secondary cataract, posterior chamber lens implantation in children is well tolerated. This suggest that, as in adults, intraocular lens implant would be the best treatment for aphakia.
