PURPOSE: To present a series of patients with orbital and adnexal amyloidosis and illustrate the diversity of disease and the challenges of managing such cases.
METHODS: Descriptive case series of ten patients with biopsy proven amyloidosis involving the orbit, conjunctiva and eyelids. The presentation, clinical findings and management are discussed for each case.
RESULTS: All patients had some form of eyelid abnormality or malposition. Presenting complaints included ptosis, epiphora and ocular discomfort. Other clinical findings included conjunctival lesions and proptosis. The majority of patients had localised amyloidosis and one patient had systemic disease. Conservative management included lubrication and the use of bandage contact lenses. Surgical management included debulking, ptosis or other lid surgery.
CONCLUSION: Amyloidosis can present to an Occuloplastic clinic in a wide variety of ways. Definitive diagnosis is based on the histopathological findings. Management is often challenging. Multi-disciplinary team involvement is critical in view of its systemic associations.
