Her OS vision was 20/20, and the remainder of her eye examination was normal. Evaluation of the ocular mass included B-scan ultrasound, ultrasound biomicroscopy, anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT), and orbital MRI. The anterior segment OCT demonstrated vessels within the mass with no defined capsule. The orbital MRI confirmed a lesion isolated to the scleral layers of the globe, with low blood flow. The patient had a partial response to oral propranolol. Because the lesion vessels began to extend into her corneal endothelium, there was a concern for malignancy. A biopsy confirmed a benign intrascleral capillary hemangioma. Discontinuation of the propranolol demonstrated stability of the lesion 6 months later.","PeriodicalId":19621,"journal":{"name":"Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88719302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The authors performed a randomized trial on 33 patients undergoing conjunctival Müller’s muscle resection and concluded that there was no statistically significant difference in pain scores or surgical outcomes in patients receiving frontal nerve block compared with those receiving subconjunctival injection. The authors should be congratulated for performing a well-designed study in an important topic (e.g., acute pain) in patients undergoing surgical procedures. The current emphasis on the need to reduce the use of opioids makes the topic very relevant in perioperative medicine. Although the study of Zatezalo et al. was well conducted, there are several questions regarding the study that need to be clarified to further confirm the validity of the results. First, it is unclear if the authors standardized the intraoperative and postoperative analgesic regimens as this can significantly affect the study results. Second, the authors did not detect a difference on pain scores, but it does not mean that they were able to prove noninferiority given the small sample size. Last, the authors evaluated multiple outcomes at different times, but they did not adjust their analysis to avoid Type I errors. I would welcome comments by the authors as this would provide further support of their findings of this important clinical trial.","PeriodicalId":19621,"journal":{"name":"Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery","volume":"97 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77800802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For me it is a pride that he has read our work and took the time to make suggestions, which I appreciate and respect. As he commented, we have a relatively large percentage of reoperations, about 50% of 24 patients treated with super maximum resection/Whitnall sling. Keep in mind that this reoperation result is after a follow up of 10 years, and as we understand Dr. Putterman’s fantastic work, of 8 patients in the group of super maximum resection associating a Tarsectomy (T) (Table 4, group I), only 1 patient required reoperation according his criteria. But based on our criteria, 4 patients would have required reoperation (2.5, 2.5, 3, 2 mm of postoperative ptosis), which means half of the patients of the entire group (just like our 50% of revision surgery in our work). Nevertheless, we could not see the evolution in time of the patients in Dr. Putterman’s study, and to have a good comparison of both techniques/groups, it would be interesting to have similar follow-up times. Another difference in our study is that all 71 cases were operated on with an age younger than 2 years old. In Dr. Putterman’s work, we only can find 2 cases younger than 2 years old and these were included in the non-Tarsectomy group (Table 4, group II). I want to thank Dr. Putterman for the recommendation to perform a Tarsectomy associated with super maximum resection. This is a valuable contribution to the ptosis surgeon community. The aim of our study was just to evaluate the reoperation rate of a new technique (frontalis muscle flap) with a wellknown technique (super maximum resection) under the same conditions (same surgeon, same reoperation criteria) and in a homogenous age group of patients. I believe the technique we developed for frontalis muscle flap, in appropriate hands, is safer with less morbidity, less complications, and less reoperation rates than any other technique for patients with severe congenital ptosis having very poor levator muscle function. I appreciate again the cordial suggestion and wish to thank Dr. Putterman for his invaluable contributions to ptosis surgery. I am willing to respond to any new concerns regarding this issue.
