Lymphoedema of the eyelids interfering with vision can be a very debilitating condition. The aetiology is frequently unknown. Successful treatment by debulking and skin grafting has been described in a few cases. We present a case of sudden onset of massive bilateral eyelid oedema, which was treated using staged debulking without skin grafting. However, the cosmetic result was poor in comparison with skin grafting, suggesting that skin grafting may be a better way of treating this difficult problem.
影响视力的眼睑淋巴水肿可能是一种非常使人衰弱的病症。其病因常常不明。少数病例中已报道通过减容和植皮成功治疗的情况。我们呈现一例双侧眼睑突然出现大量水肿的病例,采用分期减容治疗且未进行植皮。然而,与植皮相比,美容效果较差,这表明植皮可能是治疗这一难题的更好方法。
