Orbital decompression for Graves' ophthalmopathy began in 1890 when Dollinger adapted Kroenlein's technique for removal of an orbital dermoid cyst to decompress into the subtemporal fossa. Modifications occurred over the years to decompress the orbit into the paranasal sinuses and/or the anterior cranial fossa. The lives of three surgeons who initially performed these operative procedures are reported.
1890年,多林格将克罗恩lein氏切除眼眶皮样囊肿的技术进行改良,以减压至颞下窝,从而开启了Graves眼病的眼眶减压术。多年来,人们对该技术进行了改良,将眼眶减压至鼻窦和/或前颅窝。本文报道了三位最初实施这些手术的外科医生的生平事迹。
