“…These tumours predominantly localise in the superior part of the orbit and are usually not associated with features of pain or nerve entrapments [4]. Tumour invasion into adjacent bone or soft tissue is also uncharacteristic although recurrent tumours have been reported to invade the surrounding tissues as was seen in our patient.…”

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are uncommon spindle-cell tumors of mesenchymal origin initially described in the pleura and subsequently in other extrapleural sites. These tumors are categorized as tumors of 'intermediate malignancy' under the World Health Organization classification of soft tissue tumors. SFT was virtually non-existent or misdiagnosed until its characteristic features, particularly the strong and diffuse immuno-reactivity to CD 34 were described. Extra-pleural manifestations of SFT, particularly in the head and neck region are rare. Although a number of isolated case reports of orbital SFTs have been described ever since its initial description in 1994, cases of recurrent SFTs have been very few. Recurrences of these tumors following surgery are considered unusual and metastasis exceptional. We describe clinical presentation and the management challenges of recurrent giant orbital SFT in a 15-year old girl along with a brief review of literature

“…Our literature search reviewed that only two of the five documented malignant orbital SFTs cases exhibited aggressive behavior, one of which had a recurrence whereas the other one had a local invasion. 7 , 25 , 44 , 48 , 49 Some tumors with malignant histologic findings remained indolent, whereas other tumors with completely benign histologic findings behaved aggressively. The aggressive behavior of orbital SFTs is defined by a local invasion, recurrence, and distant metastases.…”

PurposeTo report the clinical features, imaging manifestations, histopathology, and immunohistochemical features of several cases of orbital solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) in a Chinese tertiary hospital, and to undertake a literature review of this rare disease.MethodsA non-comparative retrospective review of clinical presentations, imaging manifestations, histopathology, and immunohistochemical features as well as the management and disease outcomes of patients with orbital SFT was conducted along with a review of orbital SFT cases in the literature.ResultsThis study includes two male and two female patients, with an average age of 53 years. Common presentations among these patients included a palpable subcutaneous mass, swelling of the eyelid, proptosis, diplopia, and vision disturbance. Three patients (cases 2–4) underwent imaging scans. All patients had complete surgical excisions and the tissue was subjected to pathological analysis. One patient (Case 4) experienced a recurrence with malignant transformation and received a re-excision surgery and postoperative radiotherapy. All patients remain alive and well after a minimum follow-up of 12 months (range 12–34 months).ConclusionDespite its rare occurrence, we suggest that the possibility of orbital SFTs needs to be considered when a painless, slowly growing orbital mass is identified. Typical characteristic magnetic resonance imaging features of orbital SFTs are iso- or hypointense signals on T1 and T2-weighted images, with marked enhancement. A positive cluster of differentiation 34 (CD34) staining is an important diagnostic clue favoring SFT. Some orbital SFTs are infiltrating, aggressive, or recur with malignant transformation. Therefore, regular long-term follow-up after complete excision is mandatory.

“…These include eyelid and eyebrow reconstruction, [1][2][3][4] anophthalmic socket reconstruction, 5 repair of superior sulcus deformity 6 and reconstruction after exenteration. 7 The TPF lies just under the scalp and provides thin and pliable coverage for a variety of craniofacial defects. Its advantages include a dependable blood supply, anatomic consistency, tolerance for a large degree of rotation, minimal donor site morbidity, and a large size available for harvest.…”

Purpose: Large, complex eyelid defects involving all layers of the upper and/or lower eyelids still present a challenging problem. Temporoparietal fascia (TPF) flap can be used in some of these cases for reconstruction. The authors review the etiology, presentation, surgical technique, and results of this procedure and review the literature to date. Recommendations are made for optimizing surgical technique and guidelines for when to use the flap. Methods: The authors present a series of 4 cases of large eyelid defects reconstructed using the TPF flap. The etiology of these defects were: congenital, trauma, tumor and complication of maxillofacial surgery. Outcomes reviewed include functional and cosmetic results, and complications. Literature review of eyelid reconstruction using TPF flap is performed. Results: All patients achieved an acceptable cosmetic and functional outcome. There was resolution of both lagophthalmos and severe exposure keratopathy in all patients. Post-operative complication occurred in one patient and involved necrosis of the skin graft over the TPF flap. This was managed with a second skin graft several weeks later with satisfactory results. Conclusion: Trauma, tumors, congenital craniofacial anomalies and maxillofacial surgery for resection of sinus tumors can cause large eyelid defects. Small eyelid defects can be repaired with lid sharing procedures but for exceptionally large defects, these techniques become insufficient. TPF flap is an excellent option and can be used in these cases to achieve an acceptable cosmetic and functional outcome with preservation of the globe. TPF flap is a versatile option which can reconstruct a large eyelid defect with one procedure. Complications can be avoided with meticulous attention to detail. TPF flap is best suited for upper and/or lower eyelid defects which are categorized as Type III or Type IV.
