Resumen La celulitis recurrente bilateral es una enfermedad muy poco frecuente, con tan solo 5 casos descritos en la literatura. Se describen 2 casos de edema palpebral recurrente bilateral asincronico en 2 pacientes pediatricos asociados a infeccion respiratoria de vias altas, sin otra enfermedad asociada. Desde los 9 meses de edad padecieron recurrencias de la celulitis, hasta 3 veces, en ambos ojos. La antibioterapia oral e intravenosa resolvio cada proceso, sin desarrollar complicaciones ni necesidad de cirugia.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Carotid sinus syncope may occur acutely during internal carotid artery angioplasty (CA). We performed this study to investigate the clinical, electroencephalographic (EEG), and hemodynamic features of carotid sinus syncope induced by CA. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Between 1992 and 2003, clinical, EEG, and cardiovascular monitoring was performed in 359 consecutive patients undergoing CA. RESULTS:Carotid sinus reaction (CSR) and syncope occurred in 62.7% and 18.6% of the procedures, respectively. CSR and syncopal spells were classified into cardioinhibitory, vasodepressor, and mixed type. Syncope occurred more frequently in patients with cardioinhibitory CSR (P < .001). The odds ratios for the risk of syncope in patients with cardioinhibitory CSR and vasodepressor/mixed CSR were 6.9 and 1.4, respectively. Sixty-one patients had cardioinhibitory syncope; 7 had the vasodepressor/mixed type. Thirteen spells were not related to cardiovascular disturbances. This last syncope subtype was significantly associated with brain hemodynamic disturbances, including a decrease in cerebral vasoreactivity (P = .04) and the absence of function of both communicating arteries (P = .03). Convulsive movements resembling supplementary sensorimotor seizures occurred in 79% of patients who experienced syncopal spells. EEG changes were more prominent in patients with cardioinhibitory syncope. CONCLUSIONS:Syncope occurs frequently in patients undergoing CA and can be misdiagnosed as seizures. The most frequent mechanism was a cardioinhibitory response. Cerebral hemodynamic disturbances may play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of syncope with normal sinus rhythm and normotension. Moreover, direct depression of the CNS following carotid sinus distension is likely to be involved.

- Abstract
Purpose: To analyse the ocularist's perspective on the management of the anophthalmic socket and external ocular prosthesis (EOP)., Methods: Ocularists from two countries were invited to participate in an online questionnaire. Data were collected on demographics, anophthalmic socket and EOP management (manufacturing, use, cleaning), complications, follow-up visits and multidisciplinary care. The frequency and proportions of the responses were statistically analysed., Results: The questionnaire was addressed to 20 Brazilian and 17 Spanish ocularists, obtaining a response rate of 65% and 64.7%, respectively. 62.5% of respondents were men. The most common cause of anophthalmia in Brazil (69.2%) and Spain (36.4%) is an eye disease (chi square: p = 0.188). Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is the most commonly used material in EOP manufacture (chi square: p = 0.448), and 70.8% reported using customized EOPs (chi square: p = 0.069). Deposits are frequently observed in both countries (chi square: p = 0.157). Changing the prosthesis is recommended after 5 to 10 years by Brazilian ocularists, and after less than 5 years of use by Spanish ocularists (81.8%) (chi square: p = 0.041). Annual follow-up is recommended by Spanish ocularists (45.5%), while semestral (38.5%) and case-dependent (38.5%) follow-up is recommended by Brazilian ocularists (chi square: p = 0.267). Daily cleaning is advocated by 61.5% of Brazilian ocularists and once a month by 45.5% of Spanish ocularists (chi square: p = 0.098), with 75% of ocularists from both countries not recommending EOP removal at night (Fisher´s exact test: p = 0.166). Good communication between ocularists and ophthalmologists was reported by 87.5% of our responders (chi square: p = 0.642)., Conclusion: Although there are no unified protocols on the management of EOPs, Brazilian and Spanish ocularists follow similar guidelines. Differences between countries were the patients´ referral and the prosthesis´ useful life., (© 2023. The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.)

- Abstract
Purpose: To describe the characteristics and recurrence rates of primary periocular squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in Spain., Methods: This retrospective study investigates the characteristics of primary periocular SCC at two tertiary centers in Spain from 2000 to 2020. Data were collected on demographics, skin phenotype, location, clinical and histological diagnosis, the commitment of surgical margins, recurrence, and risk factors. Multivariate analysis and risk factors were used to investigate recurrence rates, considering p < 0.05 as statistically significant., Results: Over the 20-year studied period, 107 patients with primary periocular SCC were assessed. The mean age of SCC was 76.8 ± 12.8 years, 55 (50.9%) were females, and 105 (98.1%) had Fitzpatrick skin phenotype type II or III. SCC lesions affected less than 1/3 of the eyelid (56/52.3% cases), mainly the lower lid (42/39.3% lesions). Sixty (56.1%) cases were SCC differentiated, 76 (71%) had clear margins. Clinical diagnosis of SCC corroborated with histological in 84 (78.5%) cases and orbital involvement occurred in 18 (16.8%) cases. Recurrence was observed in 13 (12.1%) cases, occurring more in large tumors and undifferentiated subtype (53.8%), with committed margins (69.2%) ( p = 0.001), being the commitment of margins a significant predictor for recurrence, although thickness was an independent predictor., Conclusion: Periocular SCC in Spain showed a similar pattern as in the world. The risk of recurrence is increased in undifferentiated and large periocular SCC, partially removed with committed margins.

- Abstract
Bilateral recurrent periorbital cellulitis is a very rare condition, with only five cases having been reported. Two cases are presented of recurrent bilateral asynchronous eyelid oedema in two paediatric patients. It was associated with respiratory infections, with no systemic disease. The patients had recurrent episodes (three times) since nine months old. They received oral and intravenous antibiotics, with a good response. There were no complications and no surgery was needed., (Copyright © 2020 Sociedad Española de Oftalmología. Published by Elsevier España, S.L.U. All rights reserved.)

- Abstract
Background and Purpose: Syncope and carotid sinus reactions (CSR) occur frequently in patients undergoing carotid angioplasty (CA). We investigated risk factors and the neurological consequences of carotid sinus syncope induced by CA., Methods: We examined 359 consecutive patients. Patients underwent assessment of cerebrovascular reserve before CA and continuous electroencephalographical monitoring during the procedure. We examined the impact of vascular risk factors, cerebral hemodynamics, characteristics of plaque, and procedural modality on the incidence of CSR and syncope. The effect of syncopes on periprocedural complication rates was also investigated., Results: CSR and syncope occurred in 62.7% and 18.0% of the procedures, respectively. The occurrence of CSR during angioplasty was significantly associated with the appearance of syncope. The incidence of syncope was significantly higher in longer plaques located in the carotid bifurcation, in the presence of contralateral carotid stenosis, or when protection devices were used. Although TIA during CA was more common in syncopal patients, stroke or death rates were similar in the 2 groups., Conclusions: Syncope occurs more frequently in patients with long plaques proximal to the carotid bifurcation, but it does not increase the periprocedural complications rate.
